**9/11 was a coup d'etat by a financier elite to force George W. Bush into a "war of civilizations.**

Let's break this down:

Bin Ladin, apparently at Atef's urging, finally decided to give KSM the green light for the 9/11 operation sometime in late 1998 or early 1999.

KSM then accepted Bin Ladin's standing invitation to move to Kandahar and work directly with al Qaeda.

... At this point, late 1998 to early 1999, planning for the 9/11 operation began in earnest.

Since the plans for the 9/11 terrorist strikes were made in late 1998/early 1999, how could this have been a "coup d'etat" to force Bush into a "war of civilizations"?

Who, in late 1998/early 1999, would have guessed Bush would be President in 2001? The idea of Bush becoming the next POTUS didn't enter into my mind until Nov. 1999 (when he was reelected governor of Texas).

ergo, the financier elite owns the state, so the state dept knows what to say - damage control. you can't take their word as impartial.
Bin Laden = CIA asset.
His handler, Zawahiri, is MI6
