Yea, sort of, BUT, any UN agreement is illegal. It violates the constitution. THAT, my friend, is why "we the people" bear arms. That's why we must hold those we elect to their oath of office.

The debt is not the problem it actually helps keep the government from getting larger than it already is. It's also an insurance policy for other countries to want to see the US stay solvent.

There was bloodshed in those seven years but America held the coarse and stood fast. It will do the same in Iraq

The gamble is that we won't...and there are an awful lot of people here in the U.S. that want us to fail.

Someone posted on one thread a year or two ago -- in response to a comment on how the left didn't undermine our WWII efforts -- that the only reason the left was more or less on our side then was that Hitler double-crossed Stalin (their hero). That made him a bad guy.

Here's what the 9/11 Commission has to say about Clinton in 1996 and his concern about bin Laden:


President Clinton issued a classified directive in June 1995, Presidential Decision Directive 39, which said that the United States should “deter, defeat and respond vigorously to all terrorist attacks on our territory and against our citizens.”The directive called terrorism both a matter of national security and a crime, and it assigned responsibilities to various agencies.Alarmed by the incident in Tokyo, President Clinton made it the very highest priority for his own staff and for all agencies to prepare to detect and respond to terrorism that involved chemical, biological, or nuclear weapons.


During 1995 and 1996, President Clinton devoted considerable time to seeking cooperation from other nations in denying sanctuary to terrorists. He proposed significantly larger budgets for the FBI, with much of the increase designated for counterterrorism. For the CIA, he essentially stopped cutting allocations and supported requests for supplemental funds for counterterrorism. When announcing his new national security team after being reelected in 1996, President Clinton mentioned terrorism first in a list of several challenges facing the country.

For a commission that chided two administrations about failing to connect dots, the Omission Commission appears to have left more than a few dots off the map. We need to find out whether the CIA and/or the FBI knew about this, as reported by al-Watan al-Arabi later in March, whether they gave that information to the Commission -- and if they did, why they never mention it once in their report. At best, it leaves the final report with yet another crippling gap in its credibility. At worst, it looks like someone has something to hide.

Thanks for posting this. Yet another problem for the 9/11 Commission.

Isn't a German cell also suppose to be involved in the OK bombing?

Dietrich Snell, 9-11 Commission staffer, testified on behalf of the Commission in the trial of Atta's roommate in Germany. His testimony helped the defense according to this article.

"So what has America to be really fearful about? Do you think Al Queda will ever occupy a beach head in Virginia or conquer any state in the Union!....."

No they may never occupy a beach head in America but they may one day irradiate one of our cities.

They do not have to conquer our land to devastate us economically; just imagine the 75% or the worlds oil reserves in Al-Queada hands, just imagine the impact of NYC, Chicago, or LA being nuked...what do you think that would do to the US and the West?

The days were oceans and distance could protect us over.

The war in Iraq was not solely undertaken to remove Saddam or to protect us from the Iraqi people. The political and military importance of Iraq is far reaching and much more than than one would gather from looking at it strictly from the surface....IMHO

According to Jayna Davis, it was probably an Iraqi Al Qaeda cell with direct ties to Saddam Hussein's regime and intelligence service.

The German link you are referring to may be the German, Andreas Strassmeir, who may have been an German intelligence agent (perhaps ex-Stasi and a double agent), who was helping train the white supremacist gang to which McVeigh was likely aligned.

The ones behind the entire OK City operation were the Iraqis, quite likely in league with Al Qaeda who were using white supremacists McVeigh and Nichols as foot soldiers.

The entire commission was agenda driven from the start.

Kean was a willing participant, but I wonder how Lehmann feels now.

Used, abused, exploited.

And the Jersey Girls, what do they have to say now.

They were useful pawns in keeping the attention away from the TRUTH.

Maybe the Bush administration could have found this out sooner if they didn't have to replace all the computers in the White House after the red diaper brigade trashed the place.
