1,400 Years of War: What 9/11 Conspiracy Theorists Get Wrong | Ep. 60

25 years after 9/11, a quarter of Americans believe their own government was behind the attack — and the "forever war" critique has spread from the far left to the mainstream right. Jeremy Boreing takes on both lies: first dismantling the conspiracy theories from Alex Jones, Candace Owens, and Owen Shroyer with the actual documentary record (the 9/11 Commission Report, bin Laden's own confession, the money trail, the flight schools) — then turning to Tucker Carlson's claim that America's response to 9/11 was itself the real crime, tracing the war between the West and radical Islam back 1,400 years to the Battle of Yarmouk in 636 AD, through Tours, the Crusades, the fall of Constantinople, the Barbary pirates who enslaved American sailors before the Constitution was even ratified, and the decades of attacks — Beirut, Lockerbie, the first WTC bombing, Khobar Towers, the embassy bombings, the USS Cole — that preceded September 11th. What emerges is a very different account of what "forever war" actually means — and why the loudest voices declaring it over might be the last people who should be trusted with that verdict. ► Support the show and shave with a company that doesn't hate you: https://www.jeremysrazors.com/ ► Jeremy's The Pendragon Cycle: Rise of the Merlin is the #1 fantasy series on Amazon — watch it now on Prime Video: https://www.amazon.com/gp/video/detail/B0HFH7J5N3 Chapters: (00:00:00) 9/11 Conspiracy Theories Go Mainstream (00:03:06) What We Actually Know About the Hijackers (00:09:13) The Case Against the Conspiracy Theorists (00:13:25) The Real War Started in 636 AD (00:21:15) Bin Laden's Declarations of War (00:24:13) The West Stopped Competing (00:30:58) Why the West Needs a Cause Again Learn more about your ad choices.
