“Non intervention ... led to 9/11”

Another way to look at it would be that AQ grew out of US intervention against the USSR in Afghanistan in the 80s. Same goes for the Taliban’s takeover of Afghanistan (for the first time) that afforded a base for AQ

Or you could even argue that US intervention in the Middle East in general, including basing forces in KSA and elsewhere on the Arabian peninsula fueled AQ’s drive to expel infidels from the holy lands.

Obviously, opinions vary but the idea that 911 resulted from non-interventionism is not at all self-evident.

Or you could argue that the Clinton administration pandered to Islamic supremacists.

That truth is verified by the contents of sandy burglars socks when he snuck those documents out of the Clinton presidential library in Arkansas.
