Reply #162: It's amazing how many people forget

[newspeak]

the meeting that * had with the Taliban BEFORE 9/11. I'm sure some remember that meeting about a pipeline and then there was a payoff, you know, for not growing the poppies;). Of course, some of us also remember cheney's secret energy meeting, that also was before 9/11. And remember when the Taliban told the world that they would hand over OBL, all we needed was proof that he masterminded 9/11? Let's see, the alleged terrorists were mainly SA, a couple of UAE and I believe one Egyptian. And then, there's the tale that some in the House of Saud financed Al Quaeda and we know that a general in Pakistan wired some money to one of the terrorist. So, instead of going for real justice and taking out the actual culprits (you know, using police investigative techniques), we take out whole countries. Destroy infrastructures, kill civilians, and tell the world we're after Al Quaeda. Well, it seems that some mighty big multi-national corporations are having a field day, enjoying their blood profits, that includes some of the oil companies; but, us lowly citizens seem to be the ones paying for their grand adventure, with lives and our depleting money and our slowly deteriorating infrastructure.

Yes, this is Vietnam revisited--you don't like the name--tough. If it smells like Vietnam, it is. As * would say, you can fool some of the people, all of the time, doggone it ya can't get fooled again.
