9/11 is not a good example here. It allowed US to pass important PRISM-like PATRIOT acts without much opposition from US citizens, just in time for the rise of the Internet.
It also provided a great narrative to start Iraq war and forced them to accept USD for their oil, strengthening the economy.
So it clearly was in both government and (some) citizens interest for 9/11 to happen. It's not easy to find any Coronavirus-related political narratives for China or any other country yet, because nothing has changed in China politics, but we will wait and see. |
