Just what i've been saying all along. Seems former CIA agent saw Farengheit 911? Or could Michael Moore have been reporting the TRUTH?
As sure as im sitting here posting, i will bet you that there will be a huge terrorist attack just before elections (unless things look incredibly good for Bush).
Can some of you still say this isnt so? How?????

I don't know about a staged attack but the only people that believe Bush and the Neo-Cons weren't looking for a reason to attack Iraq before 9/11 even are either blind supporters or truly uninformed.
His manipulation of 9/11 to justify taking Saddam out is the biggest piece of evidence in support of this.
Unfortunately, this is how the right views any news giving light to 911.

There was nothing in this article that made me say 'wow, Bush knew!' or even 'hmmm, maybe Bush could have possibly in a round about way had one little inkling that something was going down'. He makes indirect accusations but doesn't say what he is basing them on. And if he had proof of any of his accusations he would have provided it. Just kind of makes me shrug and blow it off as another Michael Moore with an agenda.

Of course they had plans for Iraq... go back to the 1999/2000 debates. Enforcing the UN sanctions was part of the republican/bush platform. In fact nearly 50% of all voters agreed with that plan and voted such. Iraq was always going to be attacked (assuming Saddam didn't change his tune). The fact that they used 9/11 to bolster that action is not surprising or all that out of line. The mis-intelligence about WMD (and using that as a reason) are disturbing and were not necessary.
9/11 wasn't needed to attack Iraq in anyway, we already had plenty of reasons to do that.
It was needed to attack Afghanistan (we had justification for attacking terror camps... but not the country en masse), thats where I'd focus my conspiracy efforts.
Its all conjecture outside of real proof.

With sentiments like this, why do we have a Judicial System? 'I robbed and killed that guy because it's a free country.'
And when we rob a store or kill an old lady, we'll go to the liberal ACLU and plead our case. We'll be off the hook, because it's a free country. We are at liberty to do anything that we want to, right or wrong, because it's our right and it's a FREE COUNTRY!
Man, what's wrong with you all!
