The timeline of attacks within the USA on September 11, 2017 started long before the first crash into the buildings in New York. Of course, Iraq had nothing to do with the 911 attacks.

September 11, 2001 was the first attack within the sovereign USA on civilians. That had never happened before. The information that could have averted these attacks with commercial airliners was ignored. "The civilian" is not important to the men in power.

The people in the seat of power within the USA frequently ignore issues that are the concern of the civilian. The ceremonies that are held with children at their center are important for those that lost mothers and fathers. However, others are misplaced as a reason for patriotic rhetoric that serves the politics of fear. The honor of the civilians lost in these attacks was lost long before the attacks occurred.
