9/11 as a Deep Political Event

[Lauren Johnson]

Thanks Charlie. Very helpful.

In this example, what you call "blundering" no doubt would rise (sink?) to the level of criminal malfeasance. Thus the act of repressing the record of said malfeasance would constitute a deep political act.

Allow me to propose a continuum of deep political interpretations of 9/11:

1) The govt. story: who could have known in time to stop determined haters of America who are willing to die? No one.
2) The story of malfeasance -- who wouldn't try to cover it up?
3) Disaster capitalism: being ready for a terrorist act to happen and being read to take advantage of it.
4) LIHOP: Letting a known operation to take place.
5) MIHOP: Creating a false flag operation from the ground up (both 4 and 5 are intended to create the global war on terror benefiting the MIC)
6) Strategy of Tension

Jeffrey Orling has been roundly criticized for adopting positions from option 4. Option 5 positions are often criticized. Charlie, your answer confirms what I have long thought. Deep politics forum uses so many definitions of "deep politics." I think it would be helpful to work up a better working definition.
