'Two decades of U.S. policy appear to be rooted in a mistaken understanding of what happened that day.'

Nonsense.

By 'rooted in a mistaken understanding of what happened that day' they actually mean 'rooted in completely wilful and premeditated lies'.

Nobody misunderstood anything.

They knew they were lying.
