I remember something about European agencies (UK and France IIRC) giving specific warnings a few weeks or months in advance to the US agencies and the US agencies doing nothing then later scrambled to justify this inaction. -/edit- here: https://cpj.org/2007/12/french-journalist-investigated-over-intelligence-l.php https://cpj.org/2007/12/french-journalist-investigated-over-... -edit/- Then again 9/11 is not a valid excuse as the US has been orders of magnitude worse for decades, had been preparing for such an event but did nothing and even the contrary when it actually happened and then used it to go to war to unrelated countries for unrelated reason (access to oil). So please just stop brandishing 9/11 as a justification for doing more of what the US have been doing all along.

So please just stop brandishing 9/11 as a justification for doing more of what the US have been doing all along. I agree with you. That isn't what I was arguing at all.
