Not Your Average Tinfoil-Hat Crackpot


"Werther" has a half dozen questions about 9/11 he'd like to see answered...and that Team Bush would love to simply ignore (thanks to the lapdog media, Team Bush is for the most part getting their way).

A quick list of his questions will hopefully send you over to the link:

1. Who is Osama bin Laden, and where did he come from?
2. When were Osama's last non-hostile links with the U.S. government?
3. How did the President of United States React to the August 6 2001 Presidential Daily Brief?
4. Who wrote the script for the rhetorical response to 9/11?
5. Why did the mysterious anthrax attacks come and go like a wraith?
6. Why did Osama bin Laden escape?


All of these are well worth considering in light of yet another news story today about the number one fugitive from American justice...oh, and in a small statement that speaks volumes, bin Laden likened the United States to...Saddam Hussein:

"The jihad (holy war) is ongoing, thank God, despite all the oppressive measures adopted by the U.S. Army and its agents (which has reached) a point where there is no difference between this criminality and Saddam's criminality."

In other words, he was saying "thanks for destroying an ideological enemy AND turning Iraq into recruitment central, dumbfucks."

Then again, what do we expect from Team Bush? I've noted before that 9/11 isn't a badge of honor, despite their wrapping it around them like a shawl; hell, in the aftermath of the attacks, I distinctly recall Big Time glowering about how it wasn't THEIR fault...it was Al Qaeda's. And the media nodded collectively and became stenographers.

Well, bullshit. No, I don't have any evidence of Team Bush complicity--and I'm not ready to don a tinfoil suit--but the fact is that THEY were supposed to be, in their words, "protecting the American people"--but they WEREN'T and DIDN'T.

It's one thing for a bank to get robbed--you blame the robber. But if the bank has hired guards who sleep on the job, don't bother with even checking the tape on the video surveillence, and can't be bothered with the robber, but instead obsess about personal matters...well, if THAT'S their strategery, I sure as hell won't be, no pun intended, banking on them.

Meet yer executive branch...
