This is some very good thinking... All seem probable motivators from a geo-political POV. I would add that with Afghanistan and Iraq US friendly (or at least not hostile) gives the US more political options with almost every other nation in the middle east and Russia. I thought up a bunch of additional cool stuff, but then I found most of it better described by this interesting report from January 2002 which has predicted the last year fairly accurately;The Geopolitical Implications of the War Against Terrorism
