Who gained by 911?

Bin Laden did. He got the international jihad he presumably wanted.

Team Bush did. They got a never-ending war that allowed them to firm up their power (at the expense of the Constitution) and make lots and lots of lovely money.

The Bush clan and the Bin Laden clan have a history. They're allies, friends, business partners, whatever. They're on one another's Christmas card lists.

I think we'll stop there.
