Substantial agreement with 2nd on all this analysis. On one subject I hold a different view. The term “al Qaeda” and bin Laden collective focus were and remain a “distraction” in military terms. The purpose of “distraction” is to assure focus away from the objective. At time of 911, being actively putting out intell daily on Afghanistan, Taliban, bin Laden, it took less than 24 hours after 911 to put out “It is highly unlikely that bin Laden had anything to do with 911". Not one of my high level distribution disagreed. Term al Qaeda has a non-organization lineage and is used in place of actual names of various real groups, none of which bin Laden led. Both Taliban and bin Laden condemned 911 separately as a crime and latter pointed to the most likely two candidates (not covered by US MSM). Most would disagree with me, but most were not tracking Afghanistan events daily and either rely on, or orchestrated, the official narrative.
