Meh, I don’t think there’s a need for conspiracy for 9/11 to be a legitimate terrorist attack. It gives too much credit to Bush and his ilk and down plays the political blowback of the US’s interventional history in the Middle East.
The term “never let a good crisis go to waste” has been around for a while.

Inside job gives them too much credit, imo.
Fact is they already knew about Bin Laden and simply decided “you know, what if we just turned around for a second and, well, if something were to happen…?”
And to do that? A tiny budget cut here, a little policy shift there, and… kaboom!
Not so much that they planned anything themselves regarding the attack, they just lowered their guard enough to let it happen.

The CIA produced many briefs for Bush warning about Bin Laden in 2001 before the actual attacks. Bush did not take any of these seriously, as summarised by one of his now infamous response “All right. You’ve covered your ass.”
