Another example of CNN's total denial that 9/11 occurred. But, then, Saudis own a big chunk of CNN.

Yes, because there is nothing to stop them. Not until it's happened a few times and America realizes that there is no place for Islamicist fanatics in this country. Send them home or send them to Allah.

What about Tim McVegh as his band of extremists? They seem to be the only ones involved is American Suicide bombings.
To: Edward Watson
Can suicide bombings happen in the US?Yeah.
And when they do, and the US sends forces into an area to root out terrorist cells, can we expect Israel to demand that we pull out of that "occupied territory" for the sake of the peace process?

Considering McVeigh's 'suicide' was a state sponsored lethal injection years after the bombing I hardly think this qualifies as a 'suicide bombing'. Maybe you mean 'suicide by state'? Kind of like 'suicide by cop'

It has happened, and when our borders are so porous and airline security so flawed, why can't it not happen again. Sure it could and probably will. When we go after the source, will Sharon point a finger at us and say,"Stop immeiately!"

Suicide? Kind of like having gay sex, isn't it log boy?
To: Black Agnes
Nothing..... I guess he jump the gun on that one!
To: Edward Watson
What an ignorant question. They already happened at the WTC last year and several years ago.
To: PatrioticAmerican
The 10% who voted no are as follows: 122 Arab college students in the US on visas who know that the suicide belts haven't arrived yet, Arafat who hasn't had a chance to ship the belts because he's been "a little busy", and Osama Bin Laden who just likes to jerk the American media around.
