9/11, was it planned?

Ever since the attack on September 11, 2001, there have been conspiracies that 9/11 was an inside job and that the U.S. Government planned this to get America to go to war with the terrorist group Al Qaeda in the Middle East. There were a large sum of oil pockets in the Middle East that the government wanted to get their hands on and this brought many to believe that the Bush Administration planned the hijackings and where the planes would hit. Many believe that the destruction of the towers was a controlled explosion. This is because the plane struck the top of the tower, but the initial collapse of the tower took place a few stories below the plane collision. People also question the observation made by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) saying that uncontrolled fires caused the building to collapse, but Jet Fuel can't melt steel beams is what conspirators were saying. The theories, when tied together, really make people think that it was an inside job. The motive is there. The people to blame is there, but would the government really sacrifice American lives for oil and war? The oil would defiantly help back home to power our cars and other appliances. War would create more jobs and bring in more funding for America. This will bring in an endless amount of funding because the war on terror doesn't seem to be ending anytime soon. Ever since 2001, the war on terror has been in full force. Was 9/11 caused to help America with funding? We can only wonder.
