Doesn't this amount to quite a lot of evidence that the terrorist groups do, indeed, work together? No, not even close. To the argument that they are all responsible for 9-11. That was the question.

What certain people refuse to understand is that terrorist groups are effectively organized criminal enterprises. They are forced to operate in the shadows, often trading "favors" between one another when logistics are required. And they are more than willing to do this when the target is a shared enemy (in exchange for a "donation").. This is why we see groups like Baader-Meinhof and Carlos the Jackal hijacking aircraft, yet demanding the release of PLO members. Terrorism is a "fraternity". And even if a specific group may not be ballsy enough to attack the US directly, they often lend direct support to those groups who do. They all may have different visions for the world they wish to create, but none of them will get an opportunity to do so until the current order is destroyed. That's why I don't discount the possibility that white supremist groups have provided support for Islamic militants. They share a common hatred for Jews and a belief that they are in control of the US and the rest of the world. A world that must be destroyed in order for their "cause" to prevail. So do I think that all of these groups cooperate?? Maybe not all, but quite a few of them... And in ways we'll likely only uncover AFTER we've destroyed them and reviewed any documents we recover.
