The CIA was involved in traficking cocaine from Columbia to the US. They did this to have money for which they don't have to account, a "black pot", as we say over here.


Today they're big in the land of heroin.

I'm not too well versed in all the conspiracy theories, but i'll tell you this: i'll take the word of a Taliban representative over that of a US official anytime.

What do you mean? Do you mean that "all of your experts" never analyzed and cataloged any evidence?

Did they just watch videos too?

I take it you still never watched the video. Examining the physical evidence would be conclusive. Or in other words "without doubt". Do you mean to tell me you can't view something with your own eyes where it can give you pause that something is not right?

Just wait until they start using corporatespeak too.

Funny, you accept only the word of the government as to what transpired on 9/11.
I watched it happen live on my TV. Their was no conspiracy, no plot, no secret goals.

There was no need for the towers to collapse, the planes hitting them would be enough for a DOW against Afghanistan. Actually the US already had enough for a DOW against Afghanistan for harbouring terrorists. USS Cole and the African embassy bombings. If the US was that keen for a war with Afghanistan why risk it all in a very complex terror plot when they already had a damned good reason to invade Afganistan. Even without 9/11 they would've recieved international support as the Taliban were veiwed as dangerous drug dealing terrorists by the entire western world pre 9/11 anyway

Please, please retract this. You're making dozens of assumptions that you can't possibly know the truth of.

You watch two planes hit buildings, and you saw three buildings collapse. That is all.

And the pentagon got hit too, a little later. By something.

NOBODY knew who Osama Bin Laden was nor the Taliban, and absolutely no American gave a rats about any middle eastern terrorist, UNTIL 9/11. Please.

I will if you can give me one good reason why the US government would go to such extrodanary lenghts to manufacture a war against Afghanistan.

It was a huge plane made of cardboard, that burnt up on impact. No conspiracy there!
And because we want to respect the traditions of our enemies we won't show the corpse of the guy responsible for all this. We'll torture them, invade their homes, lock them up innocent without charges, shoot them when they're unarmed and wounded and take a dump on their dead bodies. But we won't disrespect their burial rites. That goes too far.

That is simply untrue.

OBL and Taliban were extremely well known, here and abroad, and Americans have been attacked, maimed, killed, and suffered in uncountable other ways due to terrorists from the middle east and elsewhere.

We may be idiots in the eyes of the world from time to time, but we are not asleep.

That is a tendency which we may all come to deeply regret, when it is too late to reverse.

We already regret believing them, so what's the worst that can happen? The Taliban invade and demolish two Christian countries?

Not to mention bombing their cities, extracting a death toll many times higher than the effects of their terrorism.

We'll also remove the freedoms they despise so much, just to make sure they have one less reason to hate us, now we're just like them.

That is the truth plain and simple. Of course people are going to revise history now.

They were known, but not world famous. And the US knew exactly who the culprit was before the ruins were cold, and made sure the world knew it. Despite the fact they never actually charged OBL with the crime.

You are taking an extreme here. What does flowers and pacify have to do with the US suspending the rights of it's own citizens and detaining it's own citizens indefinitely if you are even suspected of being a terrorist?

How can you spend trillions of dollars to combat someone that doesn't even have an army, and that's acceptable?

Yes, it's an extreme example to make a point. My point is; What should they have done? Certainly they need to do something. Combating violent people does not seem like a stretch of the imagination to me.

You've already made the assumption terrorists were capable of defying the defences of the US.

Don't forget how they found out who the culprits were... They miraculously found a passport of one the the terrorist who high-jacked the jetliner blocks from the WTC.
