I will almost agree with you. I think the Bush administration ignored all warnings from the prior government which had foiled multiple major attacks after the first attack on the WTC. The Bushies were not concerned, they may even have let it happen. After it happened they took full advantage to implement their neocon agenda with none of the opposition they would have had otherwise.
Whether it was a government plan (I doubt it), a blind eye allowing it to happen (I doubt it), arrogance of power allowing it to happen (I think this is real) they took full advantage of the situation implementing legislation they have wanted for years but could not pass because of the erosion of rights.
I doubt the consitutional rights of Americans will ever be fully restored to where they were before 9/11 but the erosion has been occuring year after year, this just allowed an accelleration.
