Those questions and MORE are valid until answered... Every stitch of foreign and domestic policy are BASED on the events of 9/11/01. They matter.

Anyone who lost someone that day would take great offense to your assertion that " but the fact is they just don't matter anymore.  It's 10 years later."

Look... I'm not one of those meat heads that think that the entire event was staged... But I do believe that, at a MINIMUM, the US government was criminally complicit/negligent in preventing it, and that NOBODY has held them accountable.

Iraq isn't about just oil. It's about war.
"War is a racket. It always has been. It is possibly the oldest, easily the most profitable, surely the most vicious. It is the only one international in scope. It is the only one in which the profits are reckoned in dollars and the losses in lives. A racket is best described, I believe, as something that is not what it seems to the majority of the people. Only a small 'inside' group knows what it is about. It is conducted for the benefit of the very few, at the expense of the very many. Out of war a few people make huge fortunes."

-Retired United States Marine Corps Major General and two time Medal of Honor recipient Smedley D. Butler.

9/11 gave the US gov't a blank check and carte blanche to do whatever the fuck they wanted to do in terms of military spending and the ability to wage an UNENDING war on an idea...  "Terror"...

Who benefited from 9/11 the most? Bin Laden? Al Quiada?

Follow the money, sir.

We now occupy sovereign nations based on "potential threats" and imprison Americans for being "suspected terrorists" indefinitely.

We annually spend more on Military than the next 25 countries below us combined, who are ALL allies to "keep us safe" from invisible boogeymen while Americans are homeless, starving, taking out a 4th mortgage to pay their fucking medical bills, and losing their job to a 12 year old in China who makes 7 cents a day.

They're giving multi billion dollar bailouts to banks who fund the $10,000 a SECOND shit show to keep it rolling, and systematically dismantling the Bill Of Rights..

ALL based on that day.

Please... Tell me again how it's no longer relevant.

I'll stay out of this one.

I will say this... I think it's disrespectful to the family members and the first responders  that an actual impartial and thorough investigation that answers REAL  questions about that day has yet to be done.

I've met victims family members and very sick first responders who were told that the air around ground zero was safe to breathe by the EPA who are dying and have lost everything. They ALL have lots of questions that have yet to be answered.

episode 3 was epic.
that is all...

How Axl hasn't done this yet amazes me... We know he had the idea...
