Then that officially makes this a war crime Yes? No?

Do you think genocidal power/greed mongers care about the Geneva convention?....

my god you people need to stop drinking the kool-aid. first of all, where is the proof that OBL was not involved?

9/11 happened because Clinton did nothing to prepare our nation, Clinton had video evidence handed to him that OBL was running numerous training camps in Afghanistan.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 16 - State Department analysts warned the Clinton administration in July 1996 that Osama bin Laden's move to Afghanistan would give him an even more dangerous haven as he sought to expand radical Islam "well beyond the Middle East," but the government chose not to deter the move, newly declassified documents show.

Everyone says that these people could not come up with this plan.... Um why not? take over a few planes via fear of a bomb. fly them into a building... how hard is that? seriously? its not hard to fly a jumbo jet once its in the air..

The conspiracies over why the towers fell have been disproven time and time again. It has been proven, that the materials the WTC was made of could not withstand the temps that jet fuel burned at, not to mention the initial explosions that would weaken the support columns. oh and lets not for the 5-10ft'( cant remember) thick SOLID CONCRETE SLAB on top of the buildings.. simply because the builders never expected a jumbo jet to be flown into them

If the Invasion of Iraq was about oil, Then why the # are gas prices still high?! If we had control of the oil in Iraq our country would be quickly out of debt with the amount of oil we could export!

The reason The U.S did not take the Taliban's offer to submit evidence that OBL was involved is this is simply that we DO NOT negotiate with terrorists. and we wanted OBL on our terms.


PLEASE people, drop this. move on with your lives. there is no conspiracy. listen to all the audio tapes. there is not way you can hide a conspiracy from SOOOO many people who were witnesses.

He didn't do nothing, he just didn't do enough. He had special activities types tracking Bin Laden, but never authorized a hit because he was afraid of collateral damage. Osama liked to travel with children and VIPs from our allies, and Clinton didn't want to risk the blowback from dropping a cruise missile on a playground or a gulf sheikh. Steve Coll's Ghost Wars provides a pretty good history of all that. The docudrama Path to 9/11 was also pretty decent, but it was suppressed for political reasons.

Shame. Shame on us, shame on me.

I am so sorry to the Afghan people that I didnt try hard enough to influence the decision makers to stop the invasion.

And you wonder why 92% of the people in Afghanistan have no idea why the US and UK Government are fighting a war in Afghanistan in the first place.

92% of the Afghan people never heard of the 9/11 attacks

Well they dont have much access to telivision or other media, or electricity for that matter. Hardly surprising.

Its still 92% of the population though and im not sure many of the western world realise this when the MSM show cheering Muslims on TV celebrating the attacks.

Bush received warnings for six months that OBL was going to pull something and did nothing to prevent it. Also Clinton wanted to go after OBL but congress wouldn't give him the ok to do it.

As an ethnic Afghan, thank you for posting this thread. 90% of the Taliban themselves originated from Pakistan with American supply of money and weaponry. America just needed someone to scapegoat so they decided to come in and invade Afghanistan. The post under you is right, more than 90% of Afghans do not even know why they are fighting a war in the first place. The Afghans like many people in the world have seen misery for the past 35 years of non-stop war and violence. There has to be a time where enough is enough. Afghanistan is such a strategic location for the U.S. because they can keep an eye on Russia, Pakistan, and Iran. It's sad that many people die everyday over there because of hunger and war. S&F

Palestine is a different issue as far as media access goes. The TV pictures you are referring to depicted cheering Palestinians. It is now known that the footage was that of celebrating palestinians, but the celebrations were not about the 911 attacks, with some of the footage having been recorded in the 90s.

"Someone is going to pull something" is not what we call actionable intelligence. Especially when the someone in question has been pulling things all over the world for years.

Also Clinton wanted to go after OBL but congress wouldn't give him the ok to do it.

Presidents don't need Congress to okay covert action. They just have to tell the intelligence committees or the gang of eight what they're doing. And their powers under Title 10 are pretty much unlimited, since Congress won't enforce the War Powers Resolution. The decision not to kill Osama Bin Laden was made by the executive branch.

The taliban can go stuff it, bunch of warlord thugs.

Yes, they were not the ones that did the 9/11 attacks...of course not. but their "guest" was certainly the issue which they were playing hardball with.
Because they were being muslim...aka, can't toss out a invited guest to the sharks...can't even demand he leave really, just ask politely.

But ya, I don't mind them being blown to bits overall. they are highly anti-western, anti-woman, anti-minority, anti-religion (outside their version of islam) and they solved all their anti's with severe violence and death...and these were the rulers of the country.

So ya...boo freaking hoo, welcome to western justice, we just blew your principled bigotry all over the rocks.

ok, so some may say...oh, but who cares...so they hated america as a main stance...
Ya, well, read the ops clip...this is true, they were condemning this action because they wanted -more- of our money we spend yearly to help them in the name of humanitarian aid.
They basically get tons of money from us, then turn right around and rile up their people to hate us from birth.
So
Screw em

ok, I have irrational anger towards them...and things didn't improve in early 01 when they started blowing up ancient Buddhist statues for the lulz and to anger the entire world. (idols my butt)

And to those being apologetic to the poor kitten Taliban...well, how bout you fly on over there and give them a big hug...after all, they are loving and peaceful people


Frankly, Dubya could have come out in july 01 and said "We are going into afganistan and kill the taliban because they suck. and I would have cheered
and ya, I am actually a peaceful guy overall...but sometimes a cancerous wart must be scraped off of civilization.

Iraq was wrong for us btw..but Afghanistan...yep, totally on board with that...still!

Your absolutely right

August 20, 1998
U.S. officials say the six sites attacked in Afghanistan were part of a network of terrorist compounds near the Pakistani border that housed supporters of Saudi millionaire Osama bin Laden.

American officials say they have convincing evidence that bin Laden, who has been given shelter by Afghanistans Islamic rulers, was involved in the bombings of the east African embassies.
