There's an abundance of other evidence that bin Laden was behind 9/11, his claim of responsibility being only the most blatantly obvious one. Claiming he wasn't responsible for 9/11 genuinely requires conspiracy theorist-levels of contrived argumentation.
- kreeben 5y agoWith an abundance of evidence it would be trivial to try and convict him, no? Why, then, didn't they bring him before a court? It would have been awkward of course, logistically, but judicially, so worth it.
