"The reason that the World Trade Center got hit is because there are a lot of people living in abject poverty out there who don't have any hope for a better life," he said.

"The reason that the World Trade Center got hit is because there are a lot of people living in abject poverty out there who don't have any hope for a better life," he said. It's a standard liberal globalist explanation. PM Chretien has floated it, so has at times Clinton and others. It's a talking point that posits guilt and a solution to the guilt, but really is a subterfuge to rationalize american and western taxpayers pay for debt relief and other tax money diversion scams.
