Are you saying the government could have prevented them and didn't?

How could anyone possibly know for sure?

How can anyone know for sure that you are a woman? Or even a human being? How can anyone know for sure that George Washington was our first president? How can anyone know anything "for sure"?

Not necessarily. I think they knew something was coming. I'm not sure if they knew what flights, who, exactly what time, etc. At the time, putting the entire nation on alert over "chatter" would have seemed foolish. I think the Administration knew something was coming, but lacking enough details to take definitive action... they stood down to take the hit. Of course... prepared for retaliation and a few agenda bonuses they could slide into the deal before the American people.

I don't think they were prepared for an attack of the magnitude that we received. I think that caught them entirely off guard. Probably expected a bombing on a plane or in an office. I don't think they knew the WTC would be destroyed resulting in over 3,000 deaths.

People who don't believe the official story go all the way from believing the government may or may not have had foreknowledge of the attacks and then used 911 as an opportunity to implement all kinds of things (war, the patriot act, etc.) all the way to believing that 911 was an inside job so they could implement these things.
