I dont know what to make of the conspiracy theories involving explosives and stuff. I tend to not buy into that. But it seems that there was a major screw up by some of the agencies, at the very least. They had observed those arab guys and their suspicious activities before the attack, and they didn't stop them. One can only speculate why not.
I dont know anyone who got killed there personally, but I remember that I thought right away: "This will mean war." And sure as hell it did. It influenced my life for the next 15 years, until I retired. In that time a few people I knew got killed. And worst of all - they died for nothing, when I look back today. Nothing has changed, nothing has improved because of it.
