Though compared to the importance of accepting and daily living the truth and ordinances of the Gospel, the truth about 9/11 isn't as critical . . . maybe it's not so unimportant as people think.
Freedom (the right to exercise our Free Agency) is the entire "just cause" of the Book of Mormon and the book's main topic aside from Christ. It's the entire reason for the War in Heaven, the reason this nation was established by God Himself AND the historical victim of ALL tyrannical regimes throughout history. It's the one thing Satan wants to deny us, and the first thing his henchmen go after (the King Men, Hitler, Stalin, etc).
Moroni raised the Title of Liberty not only in defense of the actual lives of his people, but also in defense of their RIGHTS - and he raised that very title against those working from WITHIN to topple the nation, destroy the church and establish a king.
So as our nation crumbles because most people are "uninterested," maybe there's some accountability there. Will anyone care when the next fake attack happens, an attack that triggers complete martial law and ends Constitutional government?
The Nephites mourned when the secret combinations destroyed their government. But those same secret combinations only succeeded because the people either ignored them or, worse, actively built them up and supported them (Helaman 6:38).
"Wherefore, O ye Gentiles, it is wisdom in God that these things should be shown unto you, that thereby ye may repent of your sins, and suffer not that these murderous combinations shall get above you, which are built up to get power and gain—and the work, yea, even the work of destruction come upon you, yea, even the sword of the justice of the Eternal God shall fall upon you, to your overthrow and destruction if ye shall suffer these things to be."
