Someone told me about this earlier, and I said to him, "If Ron Paul said during the debates that the 9/11 Commission was "derelict in its' duties", and questioned the "entire veracity" of the 9/11 Report, what would Bill Maher say about him then."
Al Qaeda has listed its grievances against us many times. This list, compiled from their 1998 declaration of jihad, is a good summary of their demands:
The end of U.S. aid to Israel and the ultimate elimination of that state;
The removal of U.S. and Western forces from the Arabian peninsula;
The removal of U.S. and Western military forces from Iraq, Afghanistan, and other Muslim lands;
The end of U.S. support for the oppression of Muslims by Russia, China, and India;
The end of U.S. protection for repressive, apostate Muslim regimes in Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Egypt, Jordan, et cetera;
The conservation of the Muslim world’s energy resource and their sale at higher prices.
