RO
you're antiwar?
war on terrorism never ends.
you know that.
We will be in Afghanistan either forever, or as long as the Soviet
Union was there. If you catch my drift.
In the blame game, lots of early fault lies with Jimmy Carter (and his
CIA). When the Soviets made a grab for both oil and a warm-water port,
Jimmy heroically opposed them, in true Cold War style, by interfering
with Afghans to start breeding a proxy army.
His meddling led to Afghans killing all their own moderates - people
who "collaborated" with the Soviets. And that, naturally, left the
country full of extremists...
No he ain't.
> war on terrorism never ends.
The war on _some_ terrorism never ends.
When we or our allies do it, it's okay.
Afghanistan doesn't have a functional government that people are going
to rise up to defend. There simply isn't much opportunity for
anything like "patriotism" to develop. The indigenous culture of
Afghanistan has been successfully repressed for so long that it is
nonexistent, so there's not going to be an emergence of native
patriotism either.
As for foreign interests, they basically amount to control of the
opium trade (which is a red herring that sensible people who lead
rational governments really don't get as excited about as some would
have us believe) and they want to keep the warring factions in the
region from crossing certain borders. That's it. That's not enough
to justify an endless war. There isn't anything like a "victory
condition" that can be applied to Afghanistan. What would that be?
"The last desperate tribal faction either becomes legitimately
prosperous or else dies?" This is not going to happen, and trying to
make it happen by military means will only make them more desperate.
People with nothing to lose... have nothing to lose.

No Afghans were among the hijackers...

Osama bin Laden publicly announced credit for all the other terror
operations that he was then proven to have directed.
He never took credit for 9/11. Maybe he actually changed his modus
operandi, or maybe it surprised him. Or maybe he felt someone higher
than him in the hierarchy deserved the credit.
Like Saudi Prince Abdul, perhaps. I've always wondered at how must Saudi
Arabian involvement was in it. It would explain the curiously muted and
ineffectual administration response.

What? Five YEARS ago Bin Laden took responsibility for 9-11 in
October of 2004. Read the statements he made about it at:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/3966817.stm
In which bin Laden stated:
(1) "While I was looking at those destroyed towers in Lebanon, it
occurred to me to punish the
unjust one in a similar manner by destroying towers in the United
States so that it would feel some
of what we felt and to be deterred from killing our children and
women... "
and
(2) "We had agreed with the chief amir [leader - of the 11 September
hijackers] Mohammed Atta
that he should accomplish all the operations within 20 minutes before
Bush and his administration
could take notice."
And further note that Fox News offered the same story:
http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,137095,00.html
We initially went into Afghanistan to get bin Laden, but Bushie Boy
decided he wasn't that important anymore.
RO
You mean other than UBL's own admission?
Why didn't someone tell that to Bush before he decided to commit
genocide on our own soldiers?
All big investment has to do is lure wistle-blowers all on board one
plane/building and then
down the whole thing.
Now, let CNN and MSNBC investors try to refute that !!
What other groups rushed to "admit" involvement?
Geez, if all it takes is just claiming something to have it credited to
me, then I'll claim that I was the person who took the virginity of
Brooke Shields, Anna Kournikova, Maria Sharapova, Julia Stiles, Jessica
Beil, Rachel McAdams, Amy Smart, Charlize Theron, Emmy Rosum, Jessica
Alba, Selma Blair, Natalie Portman, Mandy Moore, Amber Tamblyn, Keri
Russell and others that I don't even remember the names of any more.
I'll even claim that I should be lauded as a hero for such
accomplishments. I mean, after all, if all it takes is to just claim
something for it to be true then how can you ever say that I didn't bed
all of those celebrities?
Easy. Just ask any one of them if it is true. Ask bin Laden if it's
true. Hint: He answered the question...openly.
I made a claim and gave independent sources of news to back it up,
which I doubt you examined at any length. But you offer no evidence
at all that you bedded those celebs.
And perhaps more importantly to your way of thinking, Bush implicitly
asserted that bin Laden did it. How? The Taliban in Afghanistan was
sheltering bin Laden. We attacked Afghanistan to get at
who? .........BIN LADEN !
Keep trying.
RO
Exactly. None did except UBL. He's proud he did it and he would cut
off your head if you claimed to his face that he didn't.
Opium - drug prohibition - is the heart of the matter. Without the
incredible profits of prohibition, terrorists would have to work for a
living.
Legalize the opium (and use medical cannabis to prevent physical
addictions), and the war on terror disappears in a puff of ... smoke!
And gov'ts "look the other way" because that's part of the profit
chain.
We are still in Afghanistan because, a couple of years ago, when you
went there on your third tour and left Mrs. Viper in charge back here
-- YOU FUCKED IT UP LIKE HOGAN'S GOAT.

I may be misremembering, but can you compare those tangential remarks
to the _formal_ press releases or whatever that he released after
operations like his embassy bombings?
(If the question becomes "what did OBL know and when did he know it",
the heat is on in some circles to make sure he's never taken alive,
huh?)
But note I don't personally consider OBL's statements proof of
anything one way or the other...
Regardless whether UBL actually did it, he already had the motivation
to do it, so of course he hastened to profit from it, afterwards.
He wanted the USA to attack Saudi Arabia's enemies for them. And we
did!
Because either Bush was the actual ringleader, or so incompetent that
it makes no difference.
Besides, I thought our soldiers' causalities were distributed among
our entire melting pot, not just from one ethnicity.
Uh, no. When you commit treason against your own homeland, it's "for
the greater good", meaning launching the Oil War.
The individual players (including my crooked former CEO, who got
inexplicably invited to a meeting in the WTC on exactly that day) are
just ants on the ground to the UberMan. You target almost no one,
spare almost no one, and let the cards fall where they may.

I offer my claim. That is quite sufficient and has equal standing with
OBL's claim.
If we went into Afghanistan to get at OBL, why was the mission not
successful?
When did race come into this conversation? I spoke of our soldiers -
they represent many different races and nationalities. The uniform is
the same color no matter who wears it. But Bush put our troops in harms
way for his own personal reasons that had nothing to do with our
national defense and now many of them are dead due to his vendetta.
Becuase we didn't have enough troops.

The commanders on the ground were like, "Uh, we can hear OBL's
personal cell phone, apologizing to his lieutenants for their imminent
capture. Can we bring one more division in from Kabul - they are
already mobilized - to close the box?
"We only needed a division, not a whole army."
Washington was like, "Hang tight for now. We will get back to you
about that, okay?"
(Or how about "Okay, your ass is covered. Beat it!")
And there was no division to mobilize.
Actually, the commander on the scene wanted helicopters and artillery
and Rummy had kept these to a minimum in a well-intended but flawed
attempt to keep an "Afghan face" on the anti-Taliban effort. Rummy
also wanted Afghans to be the sharp point in the attack force and even
if they wanted to, they just couldn't move fast enough.

You just described Rummy's fig leaf for denying our own troops doing
what they do best - instant transport to a precise geographical
location, then pounding the shit out of it. Do you think these guys
don't think of fig leafs for their "mistakes"??
One little operation, closing the box around OBL's _known_ location,
would not have unraveled our deals with Afghanistan's other
terrorists...

Right. Betrayal and atrocity, but not "genocide".
And we also used ethnic cleansing, during "The Surge", to "pacify"
Baghdad. Our troops were disarming selected residents - of the
Shi'ites, who we had previously claimed to defend. Then the Sunnis
would move in at night and kill or evict them.
Their survivors are in refugee camps, now. That's why much of Baghdad
is now "peaceful".
(BTW, everyone should thank ViperSpit for yet another great topic.
Expecting Obama to unravel this situation, the biggest clusterfuck in
US history, miiight take longer than the people who caused it would
like!)
You spelled that wrong - it should be spelled "cannon fodder".
Don't get me wrong - I blame the entire failure in Iraq and Afghanistan
on the shrub's incompetence. The biggest error was his decision to
pursue a private vendetta instead of actually doing his job and
protecting the U.S. from a terrorist attack.

In fact, he immediately denied, directly, any part in it.
"I would like to assure the world that I did not plan the recent attacks, which seems to
have been planned by people for personal reasons," bin Laden's statement said."
Good points.

Really, folks - this part is known. The money trail - the part the MSM

The FBI was all over the US branch of the bin Laden family in the late
90s becuase Osama was killing Americans in Africa and finally in Yemen
by bombing the USS Cole. The FBI repeatedly looked at all the family
starting in 1998 right through the fall of 2000. They found no
connections with Osama.
There was no reason to keep them.

It'd be good to put ObL on trial, but Bush and Cheney don't want
"Tim Osman" to testify.
The FBI had been investigating the US branch if the bin Laden family
due to Osama's involvement in the African embassy bombings (Aug 98)
right up to the USS Cole bombing (Oct 2000). The FBI indictment that
names Osama was delivered in Jan 2001.
By 9/2001, the FBI had been looking at the US branch of the family for

That is definitely a good reason to downsize that useless FBI team -
AFTER the failed attempt on LAX.
And to whisk that family out of the country, just after 9/11, when no
other planes were allowed to fly!
(And how do you know they found "nothing"? Wouldn't they keep anything
they found classified, and not tip their hand by arresting anyone
lower on the chain of command than OBL?)

Bin Laden Is Said to Be at Center of Loose Web
By John-Thor Dahlburg
January 13, 2000 in print edition A-1
...
U.S. and European authorities say that at the center of
this web, which has been loosely spun from the Philippines
to North America, is Saudi militant Osama bin Laden. A
former Afghan moujahedeen, or holy warrior, the 43-year-old
Bin Laden is on the FBI's 10-most-wanted list for allegedly
sponsoring the 1998 bombings of the U.S. embassies in Kenya
and Tanzania that killed 224 people.
In a development indicative of Bin Laden's esteem among his
brothers in arms, after the United States succeeded in obtaining a
U.N. Security Council resolution in October demanding
bin Laden's extradition from Afghanistan, GIA leader Antar Zouabri
issued a letter that condemned the West for persecuting
Islamic militants and that vowed reprisals.
French officials said Ahmed Ressam, an Algerian national arrested
Dec. 14 in Washington state on suspicion of plotting a bombing in
the United States, received his military training at one of Bin Laden's
camps in eastern Afghanistan.
According to the French, the 33-year-old North African belonged to
the "Roubaix gang," a band of armed robbers of Algerian, Bosnian and
French origin who trained in Islamic camps in Bosnia-Herzegovina and
carried out a series of holdups in Belgium and northern France in
early 1996.
Judge Jean-Louis Bruguiere, one of France's top anti-terrorism
investigators, says a flexible, diffuse and worldwide structure
makes Muslim extremism a growing problem that demands more
intense cross-border cooperation.
In the space of one month, the French judge's investigations took
him as far afield as Canada and Australia.
"The Islamic extremist threat is the Internet of terrorism," Bruguiere said.

elements of U.S. power and to build its "credibility
in front of [the Islamic] nation and the
beleaguered people of the world." Al Adl and others have conceded that the attacks
on New York and Washington were not totally
successful, while arguing that the September 11
attack "was enough to prompt the Americans to carry
out the anticipated response" - namely direct military action
within the Islamic world. ...In December 2004, Bin Laden identified the conflict
in Iraq as "a golden and unique opportunity" for
jihadists to engage and defeat the United States,
and he characterized the insurgency in Iraq as the
central battle in a "Third World War, which the
Crusader-Zionist coalition began against the Islamic
nation." 24 (*) Al-Qa'ida Leader Sayf al-Adl OSC Report -

Answer to "bin Laden not wanted by FBI"
November 6, 2001 the Bush administration handed

and the Pentagon and for the 7 August 1998 bombings
of the US Embassies in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, and
Nairobi, Kenya. The embassy bombings killed 224 civilians and
wounded more than 5,000 others. Usama Bin Ladin and
other terrorists.specifically Ayman al-Zawahiri, Fazul Abdullah
Mohammed, Fahid Mohammed Ally Msalam, Sheikh Ahmed Salim
Swedan, Abdullah Ahmed Abdullah, Saif al-Adel, Anas al-Liby,
Ahmed Mohamed Hamed Ali, and others already in custody.
are members of al-Qa.ida, the international terrorist network

The definition of a Truther is someone who believes the Saudis did NOT
pull off the (logistical details) of the attack.
So in this case, the message _is_ the messenger. Cherry picking which
lie a liar went with is an example of exonerating the Saudis.
The FBI had been investigating the US branch of the bin Laden family
due to Osama's involvement in the African embassy bombings (Aug 98)
right up to the USS Cole bombing (Oct 2000). The FBI indictment that
named Osama and AQ was delivered in Jan 2001. There was no US family
involvement found.
By 9/2001, the FBI had been looking at the US branch of the family for
two and a half years and found nothing.

Do you actually expect a criminal mastermind to farm his odd-jobs out
to family members, living under chronic surveillance?
You are mixing two topics here. Before 9/11, Bush should not have
blocked the FBI's hunt. Part of this hunt was keeping tabs on good
witnesses. The fact that their paperwork did not (yet!) tap those
witnesses is not evidence the hunt was not working.
After 9/11, Bush should _not_ have let those prime witnesses go. We
detained plenty of innocent people because they had the wrong skin
color and weird names - a royal hostage or two would have sent a
message to THE SAUDIS that we were on their case.
However, that's not really the message Bush sent after 9/11 - a
message that we would NOT get even with the PEOPLE WHO PLANNED AND
FINANCED THE ATTACK.
The question whether Bush was surprised on 9/11 is irrelevant. Not
going after the Saudis, after the attack, was the next biggest treason
in US history.
Going after anyone as a nation for the acts of a few is a horrible
idea. The Saudi governement and the bin Laden family had cpmpletely
disowned Osama by 1996.
Did individuals in Saudi help Osama. Sure. Find them and kill them.
Lets start with quo bono.
Whether OBL had anything to do with 911 or not, the PR that he did was
certainly empowering to the Jihadim and an organizing point for what
they think is American Imperialism. Which it may be, but there's also a
global effort to bring them out of the 14th century.
I have a copy of the Mytreyayasamiti Texts in Tocharian A in which
there's a reference to the misogynistic "arrogant Sakyas" who are the
ancestors of the jackass warlords running [if thats the right word] much
of what is now Pakistan and Afghanistan. From the 5th century.
History shows the character of their descendants, and it seems they
certainly would, if they could, do the 911 hit. But even if they did,
these medieval jackasses would have needed modern high tech help.
Which members of the Bush administration, Mossad, and the CIA certainly
had. And again, history suggests there were characters in these
organizations that would have been motivated to promote 911, at the very
least, by turning a blind eye. Of which there are some reports.
Then too, Swiss and other financial analyists report on the curious
movement of assets to take advantage of such an event, not, by any
means, limited to Silverstein. Who, had he insured some delis that had
all been struck in the same day, would have resulted in an immediate
investigation. Which we did not see.
It aint so much that I see so much evidence, but that there's info I
should see that has not been presented that I find curious.
> It aint so much that I see so much evidence, but that there's info I
> should see that has not been presented that I find curious.
Google "Daniel Hopsicker" and/or "Grover Norquist".
The actual chain of events has been researched in very thorough detail
- and of course it has nothing to do with the "9/11 Truth"
disinformation campaign.

Bin Laden Is Said to Be at Center of Loose Web
By John-Thor Dahlburg
January 13, 2000 in print edition A-1
...
U.S. and European authorities say that at the center of
this web, which has been loosely spun from the Philippines
to North America, is Saudi militant Osama bin Laden. A
former Afghan moujahedeen, or holy warrior, the 43-year-old
Bin Laden is on the FBI's 10-most-wanted list for allegedly
sponsoring the 1998 bombings of the U.S. embassies in Kenya
and Tanzania that killed 224 people.
In a development indicative of Bin Laden's esteem among his
brothers in arms, after the United States succeeded in obtaining a
U.N. Security Council resolution in October demanding
bin Laden's extradition from Afghanistan, GIA leader Antar Zouabri
issued a letter that condemned the West for persecuting
Islamic militants and that vowed reprisals.
French officials said Ahmed Ressam, an Algerian national arrested
Dec. 14 in Washington state on suspicion of plotting a bombing in
the United States, received his military training at one of Bin Laden's
camps in eastern Afghanistan.
According to the French, the 33-year-old North African belonged to
the "Roubaix gang," a band of armed robbers of Algerian, Bosnian and
French origin who trained in Islamic camps in Bosnia-Herzegovina and
carried out a series of holdups in Belgium and northern France in
early 1996.
Judge Jean-Louis Bruguiere, one of France's top anti-terrorism
investigators, says a flexible, diffuse and worldwide structure
makes Muslim extremism a growing problem that demands more
intense cross-border cooperation.
In the space of one month, the French judge's investigations took
him as far afield as Canada and Australia.
"The Islamic extremist threat is the Internet of terrorism," Bruguiere said.

...The third and "ultimate objective," according to
Al Adl, (*) "was to prompt [the United States] to come
out of its hole." Al Adl claims that Al Qaeda wanted
to provoke the United States into attacking areas
of the Islamic world associated with the
organization and its affiliates. In doing so, Al Adl
claims, Al Qaeda hoped to make it easier to attack

It did not want any such thing and they are not benefiting from it.

They wanted no such thing.
You douchebag, I don't believe one single thing Moron AWOL Bush and
Psycho Cheney say.
I believe what the FACTS show.
You claim things that are proven false, so where does that leave you?

Got anything at all?
No?
UBL has admitted it, dearie. Deal with it.
There is no evidence to support either of those statements.

No it did not.
1- Never say anything in writing [much less email].
2- Never say over the phone what you can say in person.
3- Never speak when you can nod.
4- Never nod when you can smile.
Chaney is real good at smiling. There are, of course, a few new lie
detection technologies like the fMRI brain scan, which show the
pre-frontal lobe activity that happens during the calculation for a lie
and the mid brain activity when the memory centers are activated.
But nobody wants to let that genie out of the bottle. Start with 911,
and the lies in the system would be opened up en masse, and drain all
the life out of it.
The alpha male misogynistic syndrome is related to the DNA markers that
increase adrenalin and testosterone, and lower dopamine and seratonin.
All of which have powerful effects on the level of violence and the
reaction to drugs and alcohol.
http://www.livescience.com/health/090605-warrior-gene.html
These kinds of markers are more or less common in different gene pools.
And that results in the different character of the men. It explains some
of how you can get a population of men who will follow a prophet with a
9 year old wife. Are you like that? I saw a Taliban video that showed a
12 year old boy using a butcher knife to cut off the head of some poor
smuck accused of spying. Can your boy do that? Hello?
You think all men are alike? They do not have that opinion, and will
tell you so to your face, saying they are different. They are wrong
about a lot, but not that.

Bush and Cheney certainly have personal reasons for wanting the
crimes of 9/11 to occur. They did all they could to make sure
the crimes would happen, and they're the primary beneficiaries.
