Bin Laden was in Pakistan. The 9/11 attacks were carried out by Saudis, partially trained in the US.
The blatantly false narrative about Al Qaeda should have died years ago.
The US has invaded Iraq and Afghanistan because this was in the interests of Israel (to control the countries bordering Iran), and US foreign affairs are largely influenced, if not straight up controlled, by israelis and/or jews (to the point that US soldiers in Iraq were simply called "the jews" by the population, according to Thomas Friedman).
The idea that Afghanistan was going to adopt democracy and western liberalism is so absurd on its face that I won't even discuss it.
