If 911 was "blowback" for the old kinder-gentler imperialism.....
Edited on Fri Nov-16-07 09:38 PM by Postman
just imagine what's in store for the future regarding the last 4 years of in your face, wanton destruction and killing of innocents...

I'm surprised they haven't strip searched every passenger at airports or put every car crossing the border up on blocks and inspected...

1. It's been our curse since we allowed BCCI to be swept under the oval office rug.
Just so we could pretend that 'we' won the WH in the 90s.

7. It wasn't "WE" at all. It was the Clinton-era Democratic leadership that let them off.
They should've been prosecuted the second Bush Sr. left office.

8. And the powerful in our party want a repeat performance.
And now anti-corruption, open government Democrats are being made out to be the bad guys in the party.

2. It was a catalyzing Pearl Harbor event...
to rally the nation around invading the middle east. Plainly written about in "Rebuilding America's Defenses" by the PNAC gang. www.newamericancentury.org

3. All is well. All is secure...
for big investors in the Military Industrial Complex.

Real people are screwn. For generations.

5. We will never be able to get it back unless we move past MIC candidates in our party.
I sincerely hope 2004 wasn't our last chance to change the course of this nation's fascist path - but I fear it was.
