repeat Taliban = 9/11 enough and people might believe it... - decay - 11-07-2009

Today, we continue to throw our soldiers' bodies into Afghanistan, and our drones’ rockets into Pakistan, to deny al Qaeda the supposed base from which to strike us again.
The media is eating it up and swallowing it whole. For example, CNN quotes a Pakistani from the Afghan border area, "Probably your next 9/11 is going to be from Swat."
That's not true either, of course: In the extraordinarily unlikely event Osama remains in the "caves of Tora Bora" (not where multi-millionaires with kidney disease tend to linger), any conceivable attack will be planned, funded and organized from comfy hotel rooms in Paris, Germany and Dubai as is the habit of these well-heeled hellions.
The truth is, we're not in Afghanistan to stop al Qaeda's US attackers, because they weren't "based" there in the first place, and their leaders are not there now.
So, why are we now re-invading Afghanistan? Beats me. I just hope our President will give us a hint that doesn’t involve some cockamamie fairytale about 9/11 and al Qaeda.

The 9/11 attackers were mostly from Saudi Arabia and did the planning in Germany. So we did what any normal country would do - attack Afghanistan and Iraq.

The Saudis are friends with the Bush family, Pakistan has the bomb, Iran has too many allies and we're already in Iraq.

Wait long enough and somebody will say 9/11 never happened. So we shouldn't be in Iraq or Afghanistan or Pakistan, or anywhere for that matter. Disband the military and refund the 700 billion dollars. I have plenty of uses for my share.

people already forgot that 9/11 wasn't connected to Iraq or Afghanistan, it was Saudi Arabia.
many are in complete denial that Iraq & 9/11 are NOT connected.
even more are deluded that we bombed then invaded iRaq for the right reasons.

That we can agree on! :boink: Talk about repeating something so much that people believe it.

Of course not. Everybody knows 9/11 was an inside job, pulled off by that wily, clever-like-a-fox Bush, with the help of the Mossad.
