Court: Iran and Hizballah Helped Al-Qaeda in 9/11 Attacks
BigPeace ^ | 12/18/11 | Clare M. Lopez

In a blockbuster ruling, Federal Judge George Daniels in the U.S. District Court of the Southern District of New York issued an order stating that Iran and its Lebanese Shi’ite terror proxy, Hizballah, are jointly responsible together with al-Qa’eda for the attacks of September 11, 2001.

The long-awaited ruling came in the cases of Havlish, et al. v. Islamic Republic of Iran, et al., and Bingham, et al. v. Islamic Republic of Iran, et al., lawsuits filed by families of 9/11 victims. The cases provided clear and compelling evidence that Iranian officials at the top levels of the Tehran regime played a key role in planning and facilitating the 9/11 attacks and, even more specifically, that they provided direct and material support to al-Qa’eda without which the attacks could not have taken place. This week, Judge Daniels agreed.

After boldly identifying them as a third of the Axis of Evil, George Bush's indecisiveness regarding Iran may ultimately overshadow whatever actions he took that turn out well.

As for any preemptive action now, it is clear, that ship sailed in 2008-- never to return.

We don’t need war right now. It would be WW3. (Unless we have to of course).

Jamie Gorelick (sp?) and her liberal cohorts should shoulder part of the blame.

Alternatively, can one 'invite' liberal Islamists-appeaser Ron Paul to spend Christmas in his beloved Islamic Fascist Republic of Iran? [Since he has more affection for them than for he greatest nation on earth.

Most bizarre statement I've read.

We don't need war, unless we have to. Otherwise we'd have war that we didn't have to have?

I see. If we choose to pick up a soft-serve cone at Dairy Queen, and stop by and choose to get a WW3 with it, we really don't need it, but we indulge ourselves in a war. On the other hand, if we really have to have a war, then we'll start the war diet next month.

“W” was right. Iran was a part of the Evil, and his ground game (which Obama is dismantling) had them completely surrounded by our forces.

...that was no accident.

Speaking of Ron Paul, listening to his followers calling in to ALL the radio shows lately, seem more unglued and nuts than usual. They are shrill and scary. :)

We have been in an undeclared state of war with Iran since the hostage crisis in 1979. It is time to stick a boot up their ass. We should rename a hydrogen warhead the ‘12th Imam’ and drop it on imanutjob’s house.

Looks like Iran has already declared war on us and we just don’t know it. Besides that war will be good for Obama and help him win election—that’s what really important.

It didn’t come out right. If we have a true threat, then let’s do it all the way. No more attacking,.occupying, and rebuilding. Let’s rock the world and get our economy and world position back. Im tired of dicking around with these nuts. If I punch someone in the nose, I don’t want to spend 10time years on surgery. I want to move on.. now we have Russia, korea, iran, and china against us. Its not going to end well....
