Note, I don't beleive the Government coordinated the attacks to 9/11, I do beleive that they had prior knowledge of it and ignored it for whatever reason
9/11 was the straw that broke the camel's back with regards to going to war against Middle East countries such as Afghanistan and Iraq. If you want to look it at in terms of conspiriacies, maybe they wanted to secure an Oil supply for the future by gaining influence in these countries now. (see the Marshal Plan, for another example of how the government used war to gain influence in other countries)
