Uhh what? Al queda orchestrated the attack and were based in Afghanistan. Taliban refused to hand over Osama bin laden so therefore military action was pursued. Which part of that is the leap in logic?
Isn’t it traditional for terrorist organizations to claim responsibility? ISIS claimed all their ops. After all, that public declaration of “yes, we did this, and we’ll do more if [x]” is how terrorism works—you’re hardly going to intimidate anyone into following your agenda by saying you don’t ever do anything.
I’m not saying that the overall position is wrong, just that “the perpetrators of a terrorist act would avoid claiming responsibility” is weak logic.
The reason bin laden was dumped at sea was because it was cheap. That is it.
Nobody wanted some jihadis trying to get it back for propaganda... even our cucked out rinos and dems didn't want to try and justify the costs of killing him and then fucking the taxpayers harder with paying for him to rot in a box peacefully.
Edit - I would also like to say fuck you to OP for making me waste time going to settings so I could downvote this, fuck you to all the people with jet fuel can't melt steel, fuck all you a missle hit the pentagon people and all the rest of the dumb motherfucking conspiracy people! I would just like to say to all of you... Kiss my ass you dumb motherfuckers, now if you'll excuse me I gotta go home and pour some water in Buck Nasty's mom's dish. Good evening!
If you think Osama Bin Laden was actually responsible... You know his family was meeting with the Bush crime syndicate like the day before and had dealings in the past. And there's documented shit about him going to our hospitals overseas and such... Guess he was a CIA asset or something from the old Afghan days where we trained and funneled weapons there. Oh and we killed him right? Burial at sea a few hours later but it was definitely him, trust us.
al queida declared war on the kingdom of saud for hosting the infidel americans after the gulf war. so they were SA traitors hanging out in Afghan.
what boggles my mind, is that after 50 years of islamic terrorism, bombings, hijackings, kidnappings, towers bombed and the Twin Towers themselves bombed just 8 years earlier, some people refuse to beleive they were capable and willing.
Especially because of how 'easy' the plot really was. There was basically no airline security pre-9/11 and the SOP was to surrender to hijackers, as it had been an off-and-on problem throughout the 70s and 80s.
Gotcha. That certainly gives me something to pivot on. Though I'll be honest, I still can't fathom the rationale for Afghanistan even if AQ was there. We went in aren't we still there?

Osama Bin Laden had nothing to do with it
Regardless you can see that isn’t a leap in logic right?
If the gov just wanted to get their hands on ME oil there are a million ways to do it that aren’t DESTROYING TWO OF THE MOST ICONIC BUILDINGS IN NYC.

Denying involvement doesn't jibe with the goals of terrorists.
Bankrupting the US does. Destroying the symbol of the UN does.

Also the 2nd paragraph should be read in the Chappelle's playa hater ball voice https://youtu.be/fKIwj1TQmFs?t=325
He was behind the first terror attack on WTC.
I know where I was that day, were you even born yet?

OBL had been estranged from his family for many years. The connection you're trying to make there does not exist. Although it does look suspicious.
We did not "bury him at sea."
Were not nearly all the hi-jackers Saudi Arabian? Genuine question. Or were they defectors and were hanging out in Afghanistan?

They wanted to bankrupt and otherwise destroy the US.
They wanted to destroy the symbol of the UN.
They were incredibly successful.
Taliban actually offered him up quite peaceably
