As always, when the truth is inconvenient or uncomfortable, it will be ignored. But I think what they're talking about isn't the (entirely plausible) possibility that the attacks were directed by U.S. interests, but the fact that the actions of the U.S. government and American big business created a climate which made the attacks possible. Which is 100% true.

Your first idea there is very implausible. Directing the killing of a countries' own people for political or monetary gain is something terrorists, and communist dictators do.

And I dont think american businesses could have done much to make the climate less prone to attacks. Maybe a few could've paid more attention to whose hands their foreign investments were landing in. But yes the government could've done more. The US government seemingly had not been taking terrorist threats seriously for years prior to 911.
