DISINFO: Private Saudi nationalists were likely behind the 9/11, with Israel as the chief beneficiary

SUMMARY

Private nationalist groups in Saudi who bitterly opposed foreign domination of their country could very well have financed and organized 9/11. But, of course, Washington could not admit this. That would have brought into question the US occupation of Saudi. What’s also pretty clear is that Israel – at minimum – knew the attack was coming yet failed to warn its American ‘allies.’ Israel was the chief beneficiary of the 9/11 attacks – yet its bumbling Arab foes and bin Laden were blamed for this crime.

RESPONSE

This is a conspiracy theory, presented without any evidence. It relays a recurring narrative that suggests US government hides the real culprits of the 9/11 attacks; an unfounded claim that has been extensively refuted. You can see other examples of this narrative here, here and here.
