Agreed. This may have been true in the WWI and WWII years, when production of steel and other weapon material was badly needed, however, I don't think that this holds in the 21st century.
We are not building new factories and hijacking others for munitions and armor output anymore.
The military spending thing, I can buy....but still, I dont think any US leader and cabinet are a) as maniacal or b) organised enough to pull something like this off.

Sorry, but this doesnt make sense either. If the US government was able to set up an elaborate scheme using the Saudi military, Saudi royals and two private-sector corporations to destroy the twin towers, why would they be so lax in their attention to detail with the attack on the Pentagon? Seems a bit silly to just shoot a missle at a building when you are able to stage two fully-fueled passenger airlines at the Twin Towers.
Or are you saying that never happened? Did the Saudi military create two jets exactly like the American Airlines jets for this purpose, then fly them in a suicide mission into the twin towers, where, shortly after an implosion of the building was set off?
Sounds more than just a little far-fetched for me. Ever heard of Occam's Razor?
Conspiracy theories abound. They always do.
