There is both, great concern and a glimmer of hope for a new beginning for Afghanistan and the world.
After twenty years of conflict in Afghanistan which shook the whole world, America and NATO have withdrawn all troops and abdicated control of Afghanistan in favour of the Taliban whilst abandoning the democratically elected Afghan government.
There have been many conspiracy theories, regarding the 9/11 attacks. The theory is briefly explained here.
On the morning of Sept 11 2001, 19 men armed with box cutters, directed by a man on dialysis, living in a cave in Afghanistan half way around the world using a satellite phone and laptop computer successfully orchestrated the most sophisticated arial attack in warfare history by penetrating the most heavily defended airspace in the world.
The 19 men in 4 aircraft overpowered the cabin crew, airforce trained pilots, hijacked the aircraft, and flew them widely off course for an hour without being molested leave alone being challenged by a single interceptor aircraft.
These hijackers who managed to knockdown 2 giant sky scrapers in New York city with two planes who were supposedly highly religious Muslims were as per later investigations found to be alcohol drinking, cocaine snorting men who spent a lot of time with strippers.
The third aircraft piloted by a man who could not successfully fly a single engine small Cessna plane managed to perform a sophisticated 270 degree corkscrew manoeuvre diving down in altitude by 8,000 ft in a few seconds to bring the massive Boeing 757 aircraft horizontally level with the ground crashing his plane into that section of the Pentagon where US Department of Defence staffers were looking through books to find US$2.3 trillion missing from the Pentagon's books. The crash killed all the investigators on site and destroyed much of the related records.
Amazingly many prominent news reporters, knew who carried out these attacks within minutes, the political pundits knew it within hours and the US administration and President knew it within the day. The evidence literally fell into the FBI's lap, because a hijacker's passport was found a few blocks away from the World Trade Centre.
However not everyone accepted these statements and therefore the families of the victims demanded a thorough investigation. Bowing to public pressure, the 9/11 commission was set up after much delays. It was underfunded, set up to fail and had many 'conflict of interest' issues, and it soon became quite apparent that the dots did not connect making the whole report stink. The testimony was obtained by torture and subsequently the records of these 92 interrogations were never produced because they were destroyed.
The commission overlooked the existence of projects WTC 7, Able Danger, PTech and several other agencies and projects simulating the crashing of aircraft into WTC at precisely the same time the hijack and crash incidents were occurring.
The commission was lied to, by the Pentagon, the CIA and the Bush administration. The testimony of President Bush and VP Cheney, are unknown because they testified in secret, behind closed doors, off the record, and not under oath.
Strangely, the commission did not look into who funded the hijacks stating that this was of little practical significance. They concluded and published their report while failing to answer relevant questions of the victim's family members, blaming many people and agencies, but not a single person lost his or her job.
The security agencies destroyed 2.5 terabytes of data on 'Able Danger' and of WTC-7 (the simulation of WTC building collapse) and drills of aircraft being flown into buildings. The US Securities and Exchange Commission destroyed their records on the largest insider investigation in US history. The FBI failed to provide vast quantity of information citing security concerns.
During all this time until the attack, Osama Bin Laden lived in a cave in Afghanistan but somehow got away. The US government learnt that he was subsequently hiding in the caves of Tora Bora, but somehow Bin Laden got away. According to US intelligence reports Bin Laden lived for a decade in Abbottabad near a huge Pakistan military base, evading the most sophisticated manhunt and dragnet in human history, while releasing video after video with complete impunity, and appearing younger with each video release.
Bin Laden was subsequently taken out by a US Navy seal team, and strangely there was no video taken of the entire operation. They then dumped his body in the ocean before telling anyone. Subsequently most of the team members of that Seal team died in a helicopter crash in Afghanistan.
This is the story of 9/11 brought to the world by the American government, their security agencies and spread by the media.
This analysis and conclusion led to America demanding the Taliban government in Afghanistan to hand over Osama Bin Laden.
In the absence of any evidence (still none till date), the Taliban refused to comply. This led to the American invasion of Afghanistan, and so called 'war on terror' supported by NATO and most actively by Pakistan.

The investigations of attacks on US {9/11} have not answered many questions. Have we learnt adequate lessons for the future?
