mmm. some little clever clogs has forgotten the no personal attacks rule. I was refering to the movements of troops towards Afghanistan when there was no proof that Afghanistan or bin Laden have involvement . Yes info does point to bin Ladens network but the FBI and CIA have yet to show the world proof. The FBI have just said after all that they may have acted to quickly in naming the suspected hijackers as some of them are still alive and nowhere near the states. They have even gone so far as to say that some may have been using false documents. I wonder how much the US taxpayers forked out for that piece of intelligence work? Listening to George W. Bush now in his address to Congress I find it laughable that he says that the Taliban and other Middle Eastern states fund and give support to terrorists and terrorism. Who trained Osama bin Laden and his "Afghan" supporters (most of whom are from Saudi Arabia and Egypt) in the first place to act against the Soviets in the 70's and 80's. The American government. The propaganda that the US spouts about attacks on freedom and democracy is nothing but pure fiction- it was an attack against the USA itself to show that interference in others wars and support of persecution in the middle East cannot occur without repurcussion. Once again I stress my heart is with the people who are suffering and have suffered because of the terrible actions of these fundamentalists in the United States but open your eyes, USA has not been entirely blameless in its actions in the middle east in the past.

You make many of the same arguments the British made when Hitler invaded Poland. He's not after us… He's only settling old scores with those in the east…

After WWI many said it could never happen again… We don't need an army…

Does this all sound familiar to you?

It should.
