The Government would and has been willing to devestate the lives of people to better its interest. Think about it. 1) The nation just had come out of a Presidential election that had the world wondering .."Did this president really get elected by the people?" 2) The nation was in a economic down turn facing.
In order to combat something of this magnitutde you need something of greater or equal "stun power" to get everyones attention. I believe that the US government knew about the attacks and allowed them to happen in order to 1) increase money towards a low turnout in the military, 2) find fuel for Iraq and other laws that the intelligence community had been eager to pass and 3) Focus the nation on other things other than The presidential nominations.
So if you think that the US would have not allowed thousands of people to die, you might be wrong. "Spare the masses at the expence of the few." - The Art of War "Machiavelli"
