Do you know anything about the strategy known as, “problem-reaction-solution” (create a problem, escalate fear, then offer a pre-planned solution), and can you provide an example?

The concept of "problem-reaction-solution" is a strategy that suggests that certain individuals or organizations may intentionally create or manipulate a crisis, escalate fear or anxiety around the crisis, and then offer a pre-planned solution to the problem, which is often one that they had intended to implement all along. The purpose of this strategy is to manipulate public opinion or behavior in a way that benefits those who have orchestrated the crisis and the proposed solution.

This strategy is often associated with conspiracy theories and is not universally accepted by scholars or experts. While there may be cases where it appears to have been used, the majority of crises and problems are not intentionally manufactured for political or other purposes.

One example of the "problem-reaction-solution" strategy that has been suggested by some is the 9/11 attacks in the United States. Some conspiracy theorists have suggested that the US government, or elements within it, intentionally allowed or even orchestrated the attacks in order to create a crisis, escalate fear and anxiety among the public, and then offer a pre-planned solution, such as increased government surveillance or military intervention in other countries. However, there is no credible evidence to support these claims, and the majority of scholars and experts reject them as baseless conspiracy theories.

Are you sure there is no credible evidence to support these claims? Even if you might find the evidence you alluded to, to be incredible, I would like to hear it.

There is currently no credible evidence to support the claims that the 9/11 attacks were orchestrated by the US government or any elements within it. Scholars and experts have dismissed these claims as baseless conspiracy theories. However, some have suggested that the US government may have had prior knowledge of the attacks and failed to act, which could be seen as a form of negligence or incompetence.
