If you say "They made more by using this attack to send us to war" I'm sure there are a ton of ways they could have used various government contracts to make just as much money without risking being put to death if they are caught.
Power? Bush, like any US president, was already the most powerful person in the world. Short of world dictator there is no more powerful position to hold.
So they could pass things like the Patriot Act and control the people? Why? What good does that control give them?
Somebody please explain to me what Bush, or whoever did this, stood to gain from it.
When you look at it from a sheer logical risk vs reward point of view there is no reward worth this risk.

They'll tell you it was because they wanted to invade Afghanistan - which makes no fucking sense what so ever. You can point out there is nothing of value in Afghanistan and they'll tell you a story about a pipeline.... Well, 9/11 happened and this imaginary pipeline STILL hasn't been built. In fact, Afghanistan is a lot less stable than now than it was before 9/11.
Anyone think Bush wanted to pass the Patriot Act? Really? Do you honestly believe that the President wanted to pass the Patriot Act to protect the US against terrorism by staging the largest terrorist attack ever?
Who did this? The CIA? The US military? You really think someone gathered up hundreds of people to pull this off and not one person since talked? It put all of the explosives in place, who killed the hundreds of people on the airplanes....
We have eye witness reports of people seeing hijackers taking over airplanes. What the fuck more proof do we need?
