Putin is a real villain, and it's not far fetched. I don't know what 9/11 has to do with this though

why did he let it happen?

The analogy isn’t hard to follow: If Bush had some intelligence before the 9/11 attacks, then why did he let it happen? Was he willfully negligent as well? After all, was he not a real villain? Post-9/11 wars have contributed to some 4.5 million deaths, report suggests

It's 100% irrelevant to whether or not the Putin did

It’s relevant to your conspiracy theorizing. Maybe analogies aren’t for everyone.

No, it isn't. We know they were informed well on in time before, and now we can wonder why they didn't act on it, and why Putin wants to blame Ukraine for it.
