The wrong questions about 9/11

All of this 9/11 commission nonsense is pointless. They're asking the wrong questions. We know how it happened... intelligence failure and a lack of communication between different agencies.

The real question people should be asking is why it happened. Two and a half years of Bush's bullshit "they hate freedom" crap is getting old. Obviously people hate us, and there's a good chance it has to do with what we did or didn't do in terms of global affairs.

When will someone ask those questions?

The republicans came out blasting him for diverting attention. 9/11 happened, let's learn from it and stop placing blame.

I also fail to see how blaming someone is going to help the overall situation.
