According to Agence France-Presse, editorials in newspapers around the world united today in condemning the attacks and expressing revulsion for the Islamic extremists who carried out the atrocity, and agreed that the world had since become a more dangerous and uncertain place. The Bush administration wasted no time in using the tragedy of 9\/11 to launch a so-called Global War on Terror first in Afghanistan in October 2001, and then in Iraq in March 2003. Much media criticism, especially in Europe and the Middle East, was reserved for Bush&#8217;s decision to invade Iraq under the banner of the &#8220;war on terror.&#8221; Lebanon&#8217;s Daily Star said, &#8220;Instead of isolating and wiping out Al-Qaeda, Bush has created a long list of new foes in his ever-broadening war on terror.&#8221; Egypt&#8217;s Al Ahram compared Bush to bin Laden. Iraq, meanwhile, ignored the anniversary altogether with not a single mention of it in the press. <\/p>\n<p>Despite the glaring war crimes of the Bush administration in the post 9\/11 world, many theories persist in the so-called &#8220;9\/11 truth movement&#8221; that question bin Laden&#8217;s involvement in 9\/11 and point the finger at Bush for orchestrating the tragedy.
