Reply #40: 9/11 - Was Bush's Reichstag Fire

[Lyle]

Hitler set - and used - the Reigstag Fire to gain control of Germany. He then passed the Enabling Act, which served to limit personal freedoms in support of fighting Communism. Does this sound at all like 9/11--->Patriot Act?! From my perspective, LIHOP is fanstasy. MIHOP is reality. These guys are PANICKED over reality that oil is running out. From there perspective, drastic measure are neccessary to secure (steal) the rest of the remaining oil China and India are now competing for the same dwindling supply. Cheney et al truly view this as a matter of national security - and the end justifies whatever means are neccessary. Hence, 9/11. I say - if they had chosen to invest the same $500 in developing new energy sources, we'd be more secure in the ling run - and without a needless and illegal war. IMPEACH NOW!!!
