9/11 brought about US/NATO war in Iraq. We didn't go into Iraq to build hospitals and roads, we went in to obliterate it. The spoils of war nearly always includes deals to rebuild. Afghanistan wasn't re-built out of our generosity; it was done to boost a western economy and take back some of the money used during its long war campaign.
