Yeah yeah yeah...the medication fall-back. A favorite around here. I guess it just depends on which sources we check, Teribus. So...why isn't the official source the govt? Why the non-answers so long after? And I bear you no ill-will by the way. We seem to have an honestly different perspective on this stuff, but for the life of me I can't understand why you would cling to yours. THE FBI HOUSED TWO OF THE HIJACKERS IN A SAFE HOUSE. And that was one of the FEW uncensored facts to come out in the latest whitewash. The one cobbled together by terrorist entrepreneur Thomas Kean.
There were no govt intelligence lapses on Sept 11. The operation went off exactly as planned except for the tardy delay of one flight and the non-flight of the LAX plane. 3 out of 5 made it to their targets unimpeded. The pentagon ran the operation. The govt says it was 'unimaginable' such hijackings could occur, but the Pentagon's reason for the interceptors not taking off?...they were running a drill at the moment to SIMULATE HIJACKED AIRPLANES CRASHING INTO MONUMENTS!
The system worked as it was designed to do...the terrorists reached their targets. I don't care how much time or money you have invested in the system, it is broke and you shouldn't put in any more effort defending it. The people running the system are going to take all you have, incarcerate you, torture you, kill you, kill your family and then laugh about it over cigars. The more you aid such a system, the more contempt they have for you.
Today I listened to Rush Limbaugh (I take it you are British and may not know who this guy is) but he reaches maybe 25 million radio listeners a day in the US. Mouthpiece for the Bush Company. And today he was frothing about how half of Americans 'apparently think the President isn't being honest about his reasons for liberating Iraq'. Limbaugh follows polls and tries to direct public opinion, so some poll...something...put a scare into this guy. And what I suspect it is is me and millions like me. The folks you keep mistakenly identifying as 'DG'. Those of us who have seen the ugly truth only need to see it once, and then we adapt. Buy guns, raise hell, tell others. But those who listen to the lies and placations of the govt-controlled media have to be lied to over and over and over again in order to keep them ignorant. But those efforts at lying are failing. I've distributed a thousand copies of a movie called '911-Road to Tyarnny'. Clinton and Bush contrived the terrorist attacks. The film proves it to my satisfaction and to the satisfaction of millions of others. And we're pissed. As in pissed off. And we don't like our Constitution monkeyed with by treasonous foreign-backed butchers.
John Ashcroft just tried to put out a popular uprising in Alaska. The state censured the USA PATRIOT Act, and Ashcroft went there to reassure them no one was losing any constitutional rights. But they didn't buy it, and he only made it worse with the bad publicity. The House of Reps just passed a measure to rescind the portion of the PATRIOT Act which allows for 'sneak and peek' searches...allow cops to enter a residence and take what they want as 'evidence' and leave behind surveillance devices. 'Delayed warrant' searches...they'll get back to you with the warrant. Absolutely unconstitutional, and there are a tens of millions of Americans who would shoot ANYONE dead who broke into their house like that, cop or not. So, people are waking up. The people in control of the US govt are working against the interests of Americans, and we don't like it.
And the abuses began in earnest on Sept 11.
No hard feelings. How are things on your side of the pond, by the way? What are you folks doing toward spiking the head of that troll Blair?
