It was, and did. The FBI and CIA both knew pieces of the 9/11 plot before it was executed. That's not conspiracy, it's plain fact. Intelligence agencies have a very hard time working together. The domestic unit tasked with tracking Al Qaeda did not know agents were on American soil, when the CIA and NSA (foreign intelligence) did.
The Looming Tower by Lawrence Wright is a great book about this, and the TV show by the same name (a Hulu original) is also fantastic and largely accurate to the true story. Rare gem for Hulu.
