Is Osama is behind 911?

[Must_B_Free]

Think about it for a second. That's like saying Bush is behind the War on Terror. In reality they are just figure heads - other people do the actual thining and planning. Do you think Osama was a "man with a plan?" It doesn't really look like it does it? What the fuck was his plan, to hide out from the world for the rest of his life? To give enemies the moral ammo to destroy the islamic world?

I'm still looking for the proof... What evidence do we have that Ol' Sammy Bin Laden, is a motivated visionary? And what ever happened to taking credit for acts of terrorism? How come noone does that anymore? I say that an act of terror is a failure if the perp doesn't even conclusive take credit.

If you just stand back and look at the evidence, I see nothing that the islamic world is accomplishing anything for itself with extarnal terror attacks and yet I see their enemies growing stronger and stronger against them. At what point do you have to say "does not compute"?

After a few years into this War on Terror it gets real easy to get cynical and wonder if the people deriving the greatest perceived benfit from these things aren't the ones helping them along.

What about the War on Drugs? Did we win? Or was that really just some people who used the drugs to launder money telling us they were fighting "Drugs" while actually fostering them and trying to dismantle privacy rules?

1. Good question. I've wondered that myself.

I don't recall winning the War on Drugs.

And then there was the War on Poverty, declared by LBJ back around 1964 as I recall. Does poverty still exist in the US?

Rhetorical question, of course.

2. Bush conducting "War on Happiness"

Taking away our overtime, our retirement, our health care, our right to dissent. Anything I missed?

[Upfront]

3. What?

Could you be saying it is about money, oil, and greed, and maybe the industrial complex is behind it? Boy I hope not, even if it is true, that kind of thinking could get you jail time in the Neo-Con America.

4. Look, you better stop

making sense before the Feds come knocking at your door :toast:

[dogtag]

5. Just like Bush

extremely overrated. Vainglorious, yes. In charge? No.

[Junkdrawer]

6. I think the Saudi Royal Family (working with the NeoCons)...

were largely behind 9/11. Usama was a convenient tool. Did you ever see "The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance"?

7. It's all in "Dude, Where's My Country"

Michael Moore covers it all.

[Artemis Bunyon]

8. Sure. But then the question becomes: who's behind Osama?

9. Please stop trying to tie Osama and al Qaeda to the 9/11 attacks

Everybody knows Saddam did it.

13. Riiiiiiiiiiiight

11. War on Poverty morphed in to War on Poverty-stricken

12. About the War on Drugs...

"What about the War on Drugs? Did we win? Or was that really just some people who used the drugs to launder money telling us they were fighting "Drugs" while actually fostering them and trying to dismantle privacy rules?"

Ousting the Taliban is a hell of a way to make opium growers happy like a little girl.

14. Anyone have a link to the story about Tim Ossman?

Always a provocative read.

Did you know we sold OBL a jet plane back in 91?

15. Osama works for Bush but he wasn't on the inside of 9/11.

Osama would have immediately taken credit if he had pulled off 9/11. He didn't. Guys, he's not in a cave in Afghanistan or Pakistan. Bush knows exactly where his independent contractor is - probably in a palace in Saudi, using an assumed name for visitors. The documentary "9/11-In Plane Site" is just the tip of the iceberg.
