Most know 9/11 happened but don't know why Bin Laden actually did it. In the 70s OBL was basically Trump, a rich jackass from a prominent well connected construction family. He spent his 30s partying at nightclubs & rubbing shoulders with VIPs (familiar?). Then the Lebanese civil war broke out. 1/

On 9/11, 25 years ago the United States was attacked by a terrorist group it helped create, nearly 3,000 people died, giving its government an excuse to launch a devastating series of wars and criminal actions worldwide that killed at least 500,000 people, by in large civilians. #NeverForget

I'm hoping someone can identify a particular cartoon or comic(?) I'm thinking of (could be a "Dilbert" strip) in which, after an excruciating negotiation, upon someone suggesting a minor change in a settled issue, the other side says something like, "Well I guess we're starting all over again."
