There’s something about the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 that usually doesn’t get discussed: the reasons why they happened and what the men who did it, Osama bin Laden and al-Qaeda, were trying to accomplish. It wasn’t just random chaos. I’m offering an online class at my website, SeanMunger.com, on “The Origins of 9/11” which will fill in this missing piece. This is the third of four videos about the class before its launch on November 11, 2024.

There are only 50 slots available, and many people are interested, so get on the waiting list: seanmunger.com/opt-in-page-origins-of-911

Just a few of the sources I drew upon in creating this class: Lawrence Wright, The Looming Tower: Al-Qaeda and the Road to 9/11 (New York: Vintage Books, 2006); Yosri Fouda & Nick Fielding, Masterminds of Terror (New York: Arcade Publishing, 2003); Jason Burke, Al-Qaeda: Casting a Shadow of Terror (London: I.B. Taurus, 2003); Nelly Lahoud, The Bin Laden Papers: How the Abbottabad Raid Revealed The Truth About Al-Qaeda, Its Leader And His Family (Yale University Press, 2022).

My video from 2020, "Did The U.S. Fund Bin Laden?":    • Did The U.S. Fund Bin Laden?
