As long as we don't end up being transported back to 1986. I had terrible hair then.
Me too. But oh how I miss having it.

[Offensive quoted comment deleted -- RB]
[for purposes of clarity, the crack was a reference to speaking to "the Wellington branch of Mossad" in a reply to Stephen. Hardly the worst thing you've ever read, but in the circumstances, unfunny and unhelpful. - RB]
You have well and truly earned that FU now. Kudos.

You support them?
Que? No. Of course not.

I just struggle to think of sides, that's all. A lot of institutions came out pretty badly: government, the media, civil society organisations and their capacity to oppose war or measures lilke the Patriot Act.

They, whoever they were, were bad. Bad shit continues to happen, in spite of, or because of (e.g. Guantanamo) the lies and BS that was/is propagated on both sides before, during, and after 9/11.
On both sides? Which sides would those be?

Here is some of that virtually none for any other explanation,
Well, at least you've stopped being disingenous about what you believe. I wonder why you didn't answer Stephen's perfectly straightforward question earlier.
The proof for the Al Qaeda connection to 9/11 is not in any one place, but you ought to be able to find it by your good old self by consulting them, whatchamacallem, newspapers and the such. Plenty of primary documents related to the investigations are in the public domain, too. Wikipedia as always is a pretty good port of call.

There is so much said about who is to blame, the truth is hidden, it certainly isn't the people of Afghanistan or Iraq. These people have suffered enough for hundreds of years yet gain no sympathy. However, when somebody points the finger in a more likely direction they are always shot down in flames and accused of being a nutty conspiracy theorist, or worse. When truth fails, follow the money.
It wasn't the people of Iraq or Afghanistan. It was a group of conspirators operating mostly out of Saudi Arabia, and they certainly weren't poor either. There is multiple and convergent evidence of their involvement, virtually none for any other explanation, yet I suspect we won't hear the end of various alternative theories any time soon because hey, people need hobbies. It irritates me a bit that they dress this fascination with chasing the most ridiculous ideas as a commitment to scepticism, or the Truth, or racial tolerance, or pacifism, or anti-imperialism, when it's none of those things.
