"9/11: Was it a conspiracy?

It was an unforgettable evening. I was watching the BBC on TV, but as we had visitors that day, the volume was lowered at a minimum level and we were talking. So none of us really noticed what was on the TV screen. I saw telecast of the WTC crashing down, but presuming it to be a "Die hard" type Hollywood movie trailer, did not pay much attention. The visitors left a bit later and I went on to watch the BBC news before going to bed. I could not believe what was happening and tried to call my younger brother in New York immediately but could not get through.I have just gone through the full text of ex- minister, M. Meacher's, article in the Guardian. He has raised certain anomalies and produced some supporting evidences. I also remember reading an article of our own respected writer Mr. Badruddin Omar where he ascertained the Zionist involvement in the event of 9/11. I also read somewhere that a proper investigation, whether judicial or otherwise, was never instituted to unearth the total picture. The minimum that we expect in every accident-- and 9/11 was not a mere accident rather a catastrophe, not only because of the lives that perished but because it seemed to have facilitated an upsurge of terrorism and occupation never experienced beforeis a proper investigation. It seems that a grand plan was put into action with the invasion of Afghanistan and then Iraq, but strangely enough the real players, whether Bin Laden or Saddam Hussein, always remained untraced. The Afghans could hardly be considered a serious threat to world peace. Nor the Iraqis, who could not even win the war against Iran, but were regarded a serious threat to the UK/USA axis. Or, is it a grand chess game where Afghans or Iraqis were mere foot soldiers and, as such, thought to be expendable to ensure full control over world's natural resources?
