Folks, it’s true, or at least consistent with what I know. I have personal knowledge. I met a friend of Rudy’s at a defense industry event in the period soon after 9-11. He was scouting for companies to acquire under Rudy’s name. Big bucks. Big profits for Rudy in the defense boom following 9-11.
What impressed me most was the smug arrogance of this guy.
One tiny snippet, and you might need other evidence, but I think that it’s wise to consider who really profits from the military industrial complex.
It ain’t the grunts.

It would have been nice if Krugman would have backed up his claim by offering evident. Paraphrasing Rush Limbaugh, with liberals evidence is not needed, only the seriousness of the charge is required.

Investing in defense companies after 9/11 does not automatically translate to having caused 9/11, if that’s what you’re implying.
