Never thought about it that way. But at the same time, the Iraq war has helped validate Bin Laden's arguement, and brought in heavy anti-American views. Obviously the war in Afghanistan did just what you said. No way is Al-Qaeda stronger, but they knew America would invade Afghanistan because of 9/11, and deemed it worth it. Not to mention the fact they inspired other Muslim's around the world to carry out their own attacks, like in London or Madrid.

I don't agree with your statement that they supposedly "knew America would invade Afghanistan because of 9-11". First of all, I think 9-11 was a false flag operation. But hypothetically, if Bin Ladin and Al-Queda supposedly did make the plans to attack America then they actually did it for the opposite reason, they wanted to punish America for meddling in the affairs of Muslims. Thus, making them suffer consequences for past injustices against Muslims to discourage future involvement by America in the region.
Pretty thin homey. You're an outsider to middle eastern culture, despite your religious preference. You should spend some time in the streets of Afghanistan and see if the general consensus is that of purposely bringing economic downfall and death to civilians just to keep "America" off of their back. I'm sorry you had a shitty time growing up in the white Christian stronghold of the country, but you better learn to be more realistic and balanced before you continuously make ignorant statements like said above.

And do you really mean to tell me that the Afgans fought and died for 10 years during the 80's to remove the Soviets, and that now they want America in their country so they can do the same?
