One would certainly think that it wouldn't be possible that the CIA had been infiltrated by terrorists at the highest level. But then there's this story that's suggesting otherwise.That e.g. mastermind Osama bin Laden, was a former CIA operative is known. That e.g. the US and other countries have no problem whatsoever to make buddies out of terrorists and then demonizing/renouncing and killing them is also known.
That Members of al-Quida might have infiltrated the CIA - or Middle-Easterners working for the CIA might have been made into double agents by al-Quida also can't be out-ruled, the latter is actually very likely.
As such it would have certainly helped al-Quida to carry out the attacks - however to indicate or to construe that the CIA itself planed the 9/11 attacks - is IMO nonsense.
This then brings up the question of whether or not unfriendly infiltrators are still working within the CIA?
I think your e.g.'s spin is avoiding the questions that need to be considered.
Why didn't Israel know this was coming before 9-11? Has the craft of intelligence gathering gone above their abilities now too?
