Re: OT: Counter-Terrorism is a Farce
Blowing a hole in the pentagon was an excellent strategy -- how else would you get an entire nation so freaked out that they accept a Federal Police force (Homeland Security)? Oh and let's not forget the dark images of mail bombs full of anthrax, just before they trotted out to take over and 'set things right' for our own good. Funny, I never had a problem with anthrax or terrorist bombings before, until they came along to fix it.
BTW, has anyone noticed how much talk there is lately about 9/11/01 and terrorism, an event that took place five years ago? Odd...I wonder if it's the same people who contaminated the word 'conspire'. |

It's because the anniversary is approaching, and multiples of five and ten get extra attention.
Personally, I think the reason 9/11 conspiracy theories gain traction is because we Americans are so damned naive and ignorant of the outside world. We can't imagine why anyone would hate us enough to be willing to die to make a point, but we know our own leaders well enough to imagine how they could benefit from such an attack.
The media was massively "surprised" by 9/11, despite the fact that anti-terrorism experts had been predicting something of its scale for decades. (Hint: terrorism did not only start five years ago.)
The only thing I found surprising about 9/11 was that the perpetrators were organized enough to pull off taking four planes at once.

Re: OT: Counter-Terrorism is a Farce
You know, I hate to be the one to point this out, but has anyone thought that maybe the US government does konw where Bin Laden is, but has better reasons for not going and getting him besides the desire to continue the so called "War on Terror?"

Re: OT: Counter-Terrorism is a Farce
Because bin Laden is actually an alien from Belteguse V, and posesses a most extraordinary book containing all the known knowledge of the universe. He also happens to possess a spaceship that turns any attackers into a potted plant and a beluga whale.

Then we need to find him before the earth is destroyed by the Vogons.

Re: OT: Counter-Terrorism is a Farce
Wait, are you trying to imply that the Earth has already been destroyed by the Vorgons? That would explain a few things.....
