Fact check: Have any governments claimed that Israel was connected to the 9/11 terror attack in the US?

1. Summary of the results

The analyses provided from various sources, including the 9-11 Review Commission Report ^[1], The Justice Department after 9/11 ^[2], and Remembering 9/11 ^[3], all consistently indicate that no government has been found to claim a connection between Israel and the 9/11 terror attack in the United States ^{[1] [2] [3]}. These sources, which include reports from the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the National Archives, provide a comprehensive overview of the events and investigations surrounding 9/11, without mentioning any such claims by governments ^{[1] [2] [3]}.

2. Missing context/alternative viewpoints

A key point to consider is that while these analyses do not mention any government claiming an Israeli connection to the 9/11 attacks ^{[1] [2] [3]}, they also do not provide an exhaustive list of all possible statements or claims made by every government or entity regarding the 9/11 attacks. Alternative viewpoints or theories that may suggest otherwise are not addressed in these analyses ^{[1] [2] [3]}. Furthermore, the sources primarily focus on official investigations and reports, which might not capture unofficial statements, rumors, or conspiracy theories that could be circulating ^{[1] [2] [3]}.

3. Potential misinformation/bias in the original statement

The original statement inquiring about government claims of an Israeli connection to the 9/11 attacks could be seen as potentially misleading or biased if it implies that such claims have been made or are widely believed ^{[1] [2] [3]}. The lack of evidence from credible sources to support these claims, as indicated by the analyses ^{[1] [2] [3]}, suggests that spreading or emphasizing such unfounded claims could benefit those seeking to sow discord or promote conspiracy theories, potentially at the expense of international relations and trust in official investigations ^{[1] [2] [3]}. It is essential to rely on verifiable evidence and official reports when discussing significant events like the 9/11 attacks to avoid perpetuating misinformation ^{[1] [2] [3]}.
