If you only read news from companies against the iraq war your options consist pretty much solely of companies that didnt exist on 9/11.

Maybe don't only read the corporate news, then? It's not like sites like Talking Points Memo didn't exist in the early 00s.
Supporting the war is a hell of a lot different from laundering lies and justifications to build public support for the war. They lied, they knew they lied, and they knew a lot of innocent people would die because of it but did so anyway.
If that's what it takes
Except this strategy doesnt actually accomplish anything. It doesnt tell you anything about what they wouldve published had they been publishing back then
