The official story on 9-11 completely falls apart under the slightest scrutiny. If the mainstream media and network television wasn't bought off by the powers that be, there's no way these monsters could have gotten away with it. Someone, or a handful of someones at the highest levels of our government were clearly complicit in the crime.


Well, I have to do some research on this, but I heard somehwere that bin Laden and Bush actualy have known each other for sometime. The CIA trained him, for christ's sake. I mean, come on. There is no way in hell that with all the defense we have in this country that someone in power didn't know this was going to happen. Someone HAD to have given bin Laden the go ahead. Like when Hitler burned down the Reichstag, so is Bush creating a pearl harbor in 911 to further the cause of the NWO, which is headed by the Omega Agency, which Bush Sr. has a high ranking seat on. You tell me.


The Bush's and Bin Laden's have been business partners for years. JamesLimelight, there is tons of info. on this for anyone willing and able to run a google search. Some don't have the ballz to do that, though, because it would shatter all of their illusions.

Osama actually came to the U.S. at one point, either in the late 80's or early 90's, under the guise of one Tim Osman. Our military actually showed him around secure military installations and weaponry. Now they act like that NEVER happened. What a bunch of frockin' liars.

aw #! Now Bush has gone and done it again. first he passes Patriot Act 1 six weeks after 9/11 with Cheney forcing all the Congressmen to vote yay on it or else he'd make the media label them as terrorists or some #, now he does this. My god, we're running right into a police state. Pretty soon all Bush is gonna need to make this legal police state with martial law is authorization of the executive order for the national emergency and FEMA to take over.
I shudder to think what will happen if the sheeple don't wake up and stop believing Bush's lies and nonsense about 9/11. It's an obvious coverup if people would just stop watching the media and start researching themselves.

While Saddam was Captured: Stealth enactment of the "Patriot II"
legislation
Various Sources

While CNN and other media outlets are rejoicing because of the capture
of Saddam Hussein, Bush again introduced new legislation last Saturday
which increased the federal powers to investigate and reduces the
privacy rights of American citizens :

H.R. 2417, INTELLIGENCE AUTHORIZATION AGREEMENT OF 2004
Whitehouse Statement on HR 2417 (December 13, 2003)
www.whitehouse.gov...
HR 2417 was cleared by the Congress on November 21, 2003
www.cbo.gov...
Comments of Ron Paul, Congressman for Texas on HR 2417 :

It appears we are witnessing a stealth enactment of the enormously
unpopular

"Patriot II" legislation that was first leaked several months ago.
Perhaps the national outcry when a draft of the Patriot II act

was leaked has led its supporters to enact it one piece at a time in
secret. Whatever the case, this is outrageous and unacceptable. I urge
each of my colleagues to join me in rejecting this bill and its
incredibly dangerous expansion of Federal police powers.

Bush signs bill extending FBI powers
Associated Press
WASHINGTON -- President Bush has signed legislation making it easier for
FBI agents investigating terrorism to demand financial records from
casinos, car dealerships, and other businesses.
The changes were included in a bill authorizing 2004 intelligence
programs.

Most of the details of the bill are secret, including the total cost of
the programs, which are estimated to be about $40 billion. That would be
slightly more than Bush had requested.
Bush signed the bill Saturday, the White House announced.

The bill expands the number of businesses from which the FBI and other
US authorities conducting intelligence work can demand financial records
without seeking court approval.
Under current law, "national security letters" can be issued to
traditional financial institutions, such as banks and credit unions, to
require them to turn over information. The bill expands the definition
of financial institution to include other businesses that deal with
large amounts of cash.

Supporters of the change say it will help authorities identify money
laundering and other activities that fund terrorism. But some lawmakers
and civil liberties advocates say the change does not provide enough
safeguards to ensure that authorities will not violate the privacy of
innocent people.
In other provisions, the bill:
Requires the CIA director to prepare a report as soon as possible on
what intelligence agencies have learned from their experiences in Iraq.

Creates a Treasury Department office to work with intelligence agencies
on fighting terrorist financing.
Creates pilot programs to share raw data between agencies.
Authorizes agencies to continue research on computerized terrorism
surveillance suspended by the Pentagon.



I can not believe Bush signed the Patriot 2 act and the media was too busy covering the Suddam capture stuff.


Incrementally.

You know congress has to pass this as well. And if the president did sign such n act, not saying he did...But it would subject to congressional approval. I mean the Bicameral congress, not just one portion of congress.



Last time I checked, a Bill gets signed after it is passed by both houses of congress. Again, Bills go through congress before it gets to the prez. He can even veto it if he likes, but that doesn't end it right there.

WITH A WHISPER, NOT A BANG
Bush signs parts of Patriot Act II into law � stealthily

On December 13, when U.S. forces captured Saddam Hussein, President George W. Bush not only celebrated with his national security team, but also pulled out his pen and signed into law a bill that grants the FBI sweeping new powers. A White House spokesperson explained the curious timing of the signing - on a Saturday - as "the President signs bills seven days a week." But the last time Bush signed a bill into law on a Saturday happened more than a year ago - on a spending bill that the President needed to sign, to prevent shuttng down the federal government the following Monday.


By signing the bill on the day of Hussein's capture, Bush effectively consigned a dramatic expansion of the USA Patriot Act to a mere footnote. Consequently, while most Americans watched as Hussein was probed for head lice, few were aware that the FBI had just obtained the power to probe their financial records, even if the feds don't suspect their involvement in crime or terrorism.

maybe this doesnt belong here, but did anyone catch the interview he did with that reporter lady (why cant I remember her name?) a couple days after the capture of Saddam? There was one part that made my skin crawl. I am a Bush supporter, but when he said "I am not ready to leave office, I have a lot left to accomplish (finnish)." It made me shiver...

sorry if this shouldnt be here, just thought of it while reading this. Feel free to toss it in the trash if you wish!

If you watch, you will notice that every time there is some kind of major news that happens, something potentially damaging or revealing about the administration is happening at the same time, but avoids major media attention.
The original Patriot act was passed immediately after the 9/11 attack, and the majority of the people who voted in favor of it, had never even read it. They passed it out of fear and because of the urgency with which it was presented.

"On November 20th 2003, London was gearing up for a huge protest against the visit of President Bush. The media had been hyping up the protests, as the largest protests 'ever seen against a head of State'."

Meanwhile in Istanbul:
"At 09:10 GMT the first blast had gone off outside the HSBC HQ, and 2 minutes later, the second bomb went off. At 09:18 GMT, news channels in Britain were stating 'Al-Qaeda has bombed the British consulate'.

As the crowds gathered for the beginning of the protests, Bush and Blair gave a televised address to the world. They re-affirmed the war on terror, and cited the Istanbul bombings as an example of the kind of terror they were trying to fight.
Many commentators have said that the 9-11 attacks happened at the right time for the US. And I think it is even more clear today that the Istanbul attacks have happened at just the right time for Bush and Blair.

Al-Qaeda want the world to see the evil that Bush and Blair are doing. And the protests would have done that. It [the attack] diverted attention from the protests, to the 'terrorists'.

I wish I had terrorists like that on my side. The kind that bomb the UN in Baghdad, the day after the UN say that US forces should leave Iraq. The kind that bomb a Bali nightclub, the week 250,000 Australians took to the streets to protest the war. The kind that bomb a Riyadh compound full of Arabs, when Saudi Arabian citizens are beginning to become increasingly vociferous in their condemnation of the Iraq invasion and occupation.

Since 9-11, and some say including 9-11, Al Qaeda has practically done everything the US govt would ask its CIA to do...They have timed each bombing to maximise the amount of criticism they will receive and minimise the support for their actions."

There is a method to the madness, and it's playbook may be used by the "terrorists" but the plays were written by the US government.
