I sat next to a Bush on a plane once. He seemed like an evil man.

Um, seems you are the other half of your partner not shown in the picture.
If you don't know how this discussion relates, Bush family role, along with a clear line of business associates going back to Hitler, through the CIA, up to 9-11 and beyond, then clearly you haven't been reading the thread, just throwing out cheap shots.

Most of the people in the world think the U.S. is screwed up because of the actions of U.S. led International Corporations in their countries, in others words, a cabal of U.S. businessmen.
And you are here spreading disinformation about 9-11 and U.S. history, and you are not from the U.S.. Hmm, whose interests are you here to represent. What is your trick of the shade?
You really have no problem with the oil industry? All the activities and manipulations in the Middle East? Efforts to spread Islam throughout Europe? Manipulation of the dollar as the worlds currency?
What are these problems you have with the U.S.?
But I'm just aware that it isn't all being cotrolled by a secret little group that if you work hard enough you can overthrow.
Instead you need a root-and-branch reassessment of the way America conducts its economy and society.

Did you figure that out all on your own?
Keep working on it, one of these days you will find a clue.
No, Hitler did not run the CIA. Did that clear things up for you?

Yeah, Bush knew someone, like his granddad, and most of his business associates. These aren't just casual associates like you want to pretend.
There is a difference between casual associates, and direct relationships. These associations are way beyond belonging to the same country club. Especially when you see the same group of people working together over decades.
You refuse to see it, because it blows your whole world view.
Allen Dulles, the son of a Presbyterian minister, and the brother of John Foster Dulles, was born in Washington in 1893. His grandfather was John Watson Foster, Secretary of State under President Benjamin Harrison. His uncle, Robert Lansing, was Secretary of State in the Cabinet of President Woodrow Wilson.
After attending Princeton University he joined the diplomatic service and served in Vienna, Berne, Paris, Berlin and Instanbul. In 1922 he was appointed as chief of Division of Near Eastern Affairs.
During the Second World War Dulles served in Europe with the Office of Strategic Services (OSS) under William Donovan. The organization that was given the responsible for espionage and for helping the resistance movement in Europe. Dulles was stationed in Switzerland and was able to use his base in this neutral country to obtain important information on Nazi Germany and the Gestapo.
As soon as the Second World War ended President Harry S. Truman ordered the OSS to be closed down. However, it provided a model for the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) established in September 1947. Dulles joined the CIA and became director of the organization in 1953.
Under his leadership the CIA had success in assisting right wing coups in Guatemala and Iran. His attempts to oust against Fidel Castro ended in failure and was forced to resign after the Bay of Pigs disaster.
Dulles published The Craft of Intelligence (1963). After the death of John F. Kennedy Dulles served on the Warren Commission that investigated the assassination. Allen Dulles died of cancer in 1969.
Allen Welsh Dulles was born to privilege and a tradition of public service. He was the grandson of one secretary of state and the nephew of another. But by the time he graduated from Princeton in 1914, the robber baron era of American history was coming to an an end, ushered out by the Sherman Anti-Trust Act -- which had been used in 1911 to break up Standard Oil -- and by the institution of the progressive income tax in 1913. The ruling elite was starting to view government less as their own private preserve and more as an unwanted intrusion on their ability to conduct business as usual. That shift of loyalties in itself may account for many of the paradoxical aspects of Dulles's career.
Dulles entered the diplomatic service after college and served as a State Department delegate to the Paris Peace Conference of 1919, which brought a formal end to World War I. The Versailles Treaty which came out of this conference included a provision making it illegal to sell arms to Germany. This displeased the powerful DuPont family, and they put pressure on the delegates to allow them to opt out. It was Allen Dulles who finally gave them the assurances they wanted that their transactions with Germany would be "winked at."
Dulles remained a diplomat through the early 1920's, spending part of that time in Berlin. However, he left government service in 1926 for the greener pastures of private business, becoming a Wall Street lawyer with the same firm as his older brother, John Foster Dulles.

It was into this heady atmosphere of high-level investments and financial manipulation that Allen Dulles entered when he joined the firm of Sullivan and Cromwell in 1926. He would become the lawyer for the Thyssens' Rotterdam bank and would also represent other German firms, including I.G. Farben.

Wow Dave, try reading the opening post next time.
Obama is not associated with the Bush family, and the whole group that they belong to. Obama got pushed into office because the PTB felt they could out maneuver him, and turn him into a one tern president, and put one of their own back into the white house.
Now that they got Osama, will they go after the remaining 911 perps?
Sources say that neither Strauss-Kahn nor the 32-year-old victim had scratches or bruises. DNA samples have been sent to the lab and results could take three to seven days to come back.
Investigators say there are no video cameras on the floor where Strauss-Kahn's $3,000-a-night suite was located, but that the woman appeared disheveled and upset when she told co-workers about the encounter.
Contrary to earlier reports, sources say Strauss-Kahn did not leave his cell phone at the hotel. The banking big-wig carries two and had misplaced one when he went to the airport.
He did call the hotel to see if he left it there, which tipped cops off to the fact that he was about to board a flight. Investigators are seeking warrants for his phone records, sources said.

I don't know, why don't you tell us? You are the one who seems certain nothing is going on beneath the veneer of the mainstream media reports.
You are the one so certain that the official 9-11 story is the truth.
All I am doing is trying to put pieces of the puzzle together, from looking at current events.

Well? All they need do is go over to Bush Jr.s house and arrest him, then roll on over to Cheney's and pick him up too. That would be the 2 key perps involved in 9/11.
Spoken like a true Alex Jones acolyte. You'll forgive me when I say the rest of the non damned fool conspiracy web site following world require more proof of their involvement than just abject paranoia.
