So you agree they couldn't have done 9/11.
GJ shipmate.
Look, the idea is that they did it, but it's also easy to claim that some other people were aware of the attack and decided to "let it go".
Irak was about to become a powerful, developped, country (or end up like north korea): US & especially Israel were certainly not interested into this.

Modernization of Iraq
Saddam surrounded by Iraqi students
At the same time, enormous social progress will have been made under his presidency. Iraq is becoming industrialized quickly and becomes one of the Arab countries where the standard of living is the highest, with the result of the emergence of a real middle class6.
In 1973, Saddam launched the "national campaign for the eradication of illiteracy" an ambitious plan aimed at combating illiteracy. The school becomes free, compulsory and secular for boys and girls. In less than eighteen months, the number of teachers reached the number of sixty-one thousand people, moreover, the number of school girls is multiplied by three. UNICEF recognizes that Iraq has practically eradicated illiteracy and will have pushed the schooling of the Iraqis at a level still unprecedented in the Middle East. In 1982, UNESCO put a trophy at Iraq for the literacy effort that the government had shown in girls. Almost 95 % of girls were educated.
In 1977, 70 % of pharmacists and 46 % of dentists were women. In addition, an intellectual and scientific elite quickly emerged. UNESCO explains that:
"The education system in Iraq before 1991 was one of the most efficient in the region, with a gross schooling rate close to 100 % in primary education and a high level of literacy for both sexes. Higher education was of quality, particularly in scientific and technological educational establishments, and the competent and motivated teaching staff7. »»
Due to his difficult youth, he wanted the whole country to know how to read and write, because for him free education was one more step towards equality.
In his mind, free education concerns both access to school, as well as obtaining school books and free means of transport. It is for this reason that in the 1970s and 1980s, the Iraqi Ministry of Education distributed all the tools necessary for good education. Students could go to school thanks to buses that were free, and at the end of their school year, all students received a gift, such as watches for middle school students and high school students.
Hospitalization fees are now covered by the state and subsidies are granted to farmers. The Iraqi health system becomes one of the most modern and effective of all Arab people; Public services are not to be outdone, because recruitment is now done on merit.
Iraq greatly dependent on oil, Saddam tries to diversify the economy by leading an industrialization plan. Iraq therefore becomes the first Arab state to have used its oil rent to carry out its industrialization. He undertakes the construction of roads, major highway and buildings as well as the development of industries.
He launches an energy revolution, bringing the electrification of almost all the cities of Iraq (even the cities located in the countryside or difficult to access). Nearly ten thousand villages were electrified at the same time. In addition, it is distributed free of charge to the Iraqis refrigerators and televisions.
Before the 1970s, Iraq was a largely rural country; Following the various reforms, urbanization extends. Saddam redistributes lands to the peasants, who were previously in the hands of a minority of people. He launched an agrarian reform to allow farmers to maximize the profit of their exploitation. Agriculture is therefore mechanized, and the peasants who do not know how to use the new machines are trained by the government. The purpose of this reform also had to end feudalism.
He also launches a real cultural policy, he rehabilitates and maintains the ancient palaces dating from the Abbasid Empire, the ancient city of Babylon, the palaces of Nabuchodonosor, the triple enclosure as well as the door of Ishtar in Babylon. He founded several museums in Baghdad in order to bring together and preserve the Iraqi historical heritage.
In 1980, Iraq was the only Arab country in the process of reaching food self -sufficiency8. Besides, his modernization policy did not stop at Iraq, because wanting the modernization of the Arab world, he launched the National Fund for External Development. He proposes that the increase in crude price, is partly devoted to helping the poorest Arab states through a distribution fund. This proposal is praised by the citizens of the Arab countries, but it is immediately rejected by the emirs of the Gulf.
Here's what happen when americans cant do a difference in-between Iraq and Saudi goats fuckers.
