I don't believe that it was a complot, though. Bin Laden was on the upwave, then, and a big terrorist exploit in the US seems to me what he would plan to popularise himself to Arabs.
Bin Laden was a strong CIA ally. Where did all the stinger missiles came from to shoot the Russian helichopters in Afghanistan?
How would you feel if the Russians now sold some weapons to the Taliban to fight off the US? Fair cop would you say? Perhaps they are already doing it? Who knows?
To think that George Bush said "I want an excuse tp have war in Iraq so that we can get control of the oil there, so we are going to have planes crash into the Twin Towers". Come on Atilla, please!
Bush boy wouldn't know, don't need to know. He is simply a muppet.
This is precisely what happened. The proof is in the collapse of the the 3 buildings and the pentagon missing aircraft fiasco. Anybody who looks at it beyond the terrorists mug shots boarding the planes can see the mountain of questions and evidence of damn lies.
I'm astounded the substantial body of evidence supported by civil engineers and countless professional bodies and individuals as well as accounts of fireman on the ground as well as legal evidence of deals with insurance agents and asbestos claims - NO BODY WANTS TO INVESIGATE.
Colonel Oliver North sold weapons to Iran (who US was virtually at war with) in their efforst to release hostages. With the proceeds the money was diverted to the anti-Sandinista, socialist so called rebels, in Nicaragua. President Reagan, apparently knew nothing about this plan. However, he did have a strong support for the Conras and all their blood curling murders, rapes and torture of democratic activists including torture of their families.
Can you imagine the US selling weapons to Al-Qaida or Iran now? I can. Why not? What's changed? In fact relations with Iran a little better as they don't hold US hostages now as when weapons were being sold... By the way Iran was also fighting a war with Iraq at the time. US was in effect supplying both sides with military weapons to kill each other. Great for business. (Wonder why that Saddam ever turned on his CIA friends ??? )
I am convinced that that was an Arab terrorist plot and it is not the first time that it has happened. They have blown up various places, including that World Trade Centre, hi-jacked aircraft, liners, murdered athletes in the Munich Olympics. That is their history over the last forty odd years
True. But there was countless pieces of evidence to say a plot was being prepared. Richard A Clark, served under 3 presidents as NSA knows more about Osama bin Laden and Al-Qaeda than anyone else here is an extract from his book...
From "Against All Enemies"
Wolfowitz fidgeted and scowled.... "Well, I just don't understand why we are beginning by talking about this one man bin Laden."
"We are talking about a neetwork of terrorist organisations called Al-Qaeda, that happens to be led by bin Laden, and we are talking about that network because it and it alone poses an immediate and serious threata to the US," I answered...
Wolfowitz turned on me. "You give bin Laden too much credit. He could not do all these things like the 1993 attack on New York, not with-out a state sponsor. Just because FBI and CIA have failed to find the linkages does not mean they don't exist." I could hardly believe it, but Wolfowitz was actually spouting the totally discredited Laurie Mylroie theory that Iraq was behind the 1993 truck bomb at the World Trade Center, a theory that had been investigated for years and found to be totally untrue.
My point is this, for all we know the failure of the 1993 event planned ages in advance for all we know planned and executed in 2001 as 9/11.
These people have their agendas and they will persist.
I would like to know how why what where when Wolfowitz has the freaking wisdom to suspect Iraq and even in 2003 carry on banging their drums as we now know contrary to all evidence 1 no WMD or 2 connection to Al-Qaeda.
Where do the NeoCons get their information from if not plants.
I find the complot argument unbelievable!
Well yes you would. A litlle like that other guy on another thread about US pilots bombing civilians or killing innocent family's by waking them up and shooting them in the night, anything and everything they do is either mishap or some collateral damage.
BBC NEWS | World | Americas | CIA leak trial: At-a-glance I guess you find these top wise bods innocent too.
He was found guilty of four of the five counts against him and sentenced to 30 months in prison. President George W Bush later intervened to commute Libby's sentence.
Libby is the only person charged over the leak investigation
The prosecution said Libby tried to block an investigation into who revealed that the wife of a White House critic was secretly a CIA agent.
No-one was ever charged with the leak itself, but the prosecution said Libby was part of a cover-up.
How or why would the White House do something like this or feel the need to cover up?
Expendable fodder? US citizen no doubt risking his life for country but nevertheless expendable for the bigger objective.
I don't think that Europeans want to believe how dangerous the situation is between the West and the Islamic block. I believe that we are getting closer and closer to a serious conflict but other western nations fall over themselves to scream "Complot !"
Which European country is under threat from which Islamic country? I strongly disagree more with this line. Problem is you don't want to even consider truth or alternatives to your brainwashed dogma.
I don't believe David Kelly took his life either.
I don't believe our magnificient intelligence accidently took a university students report on Iraq as their intelligence gathering fact finding final report by mistake.
The whole freaking show is one big cover up from begining to end and you don't want to believe.
David Shayler the MI5 intelligence officer couldn't stomach the hypocrisy and had to leave. I've heard of other personnel who have had to leave GCHQ because they too couldn't handle the hypocrisy.
They too couldn't believe they signed up to this just like our soldiers and US marines dying for BS.
I got, somewhat sidetracked onto the Russian question. It is, probably, not as serious as the Islamic one. The Russians, also, have problems, and serious ones, with the muslims.
Pentagon has to create these enemies like the Russians, Islam and the Chineese to justify it's existence.
BSD thinks that the fear of total world annihilation will stop future conflicts.
Worked so far hasn't it. The World has never had it so good for the last 60 years. Big countries fight their proxy wars using little peons.
Oh dear! Tell all the suicidal arabs that one and hear what they say! All the main terrorist attacks that they have made have always involved suicides. Do you, really, believe that they are worried about what happens to the rest of us?
Do you genuinely care what happens to the rest of them as long as you are alright jack?
