Default wake up peeps!

why the confusion over the Iraq war?

Remember why we went in in the first place? They were trying to link Al-Queada to Saddam Hussien. That didn't work so they went with WMD's.

"Power of Nightmares" on BBC2 recently dispelled the Al-CIAda myth.

For those that haven't seen it here is the advert in this weeks "Sedgefield Advertiser", Tony's local rag.



If you don't want to vote, at least please spoil yourt ballot paper in protest.

And anyone can fly a plane.
When you're not smart enough to do it with all the maths and stuff,
just pay enough and go onto a 2 year course in the US.

I have a mate that has cheated his way through college, got a loan and now is a pilot

So we don't need to worry about the 100's and 1000's of Iraqi's killed, all our troops out their getting hammered? If they live local to what happened then they better see a doctor, cause of the amount of asbestos flying around NY that day.

Can we have some sensible replies please. Anyone wanting to refute this please provide a link to source.

Not only is it a picture of something that is already in the public domain, but everyone is entitled to an opinion.

This has nothing to with taste - if it promoted 9/11 as something good, then THAT would be in bad taste.

Twin towers was a massive tradegy and a waste of human life on a large scale.

Not as large though as the number of people who die everyday from the fact they are denied drugs in africa because the (mainly american) companies holding the rights to make those drugs wont allow them a license to make them.
Its a real shame when profit for share holders is worth more than millions of lives, and i can see why some people are angered at capatilist lifestyles like they ascociate with the US.

I also read that/watched it somewhere, there's no way the impact could have made the towers fall like that!

As i said this was a program on about this, which showed the structual engineering would have held BOTH towers up, they were designed to withstand earthquakes etc...............

But this could be argued for yrs & yrs.

So the fact that Mr Bush and the Binladen family have a mutual business relationship with regards to the oil supplies and that the usa are making billions a day rebuilding the country that they flattened, does that not strike a little strange to you....

Sadam Hussain never killed, maimed or attacked any person,place or living creature from american soil yet the yanks and allied forces flatterned the whole country, killed his family and has now left the country in ruins, finacially, and politically...but thats ok cause the media said it was him.....

There was a very good documentary on 9-11 a few months back on Sky. Was a good 2 hours long and it showed all kinds of Theorys/Conspiracy behind the attacks.

Thing is though we'll never find out the whole truth behind the tradegy as it is kept behind closed doors.

Possibly

As stated before, a possible gateway to the world oil capital, thus bringing more money to America, thus bringing more power to America.

Who knows, not us

No, Not at all Richard, but does that mean that Mr Bush has to get involved.....?

He says he has to govern the WMD, well who the hell is looking after his, ours?

Why is he not getting involved with all the other countries who are in civil wars or government oppression(spl)...?

Cause they will not earn him millions and millions of pounds.....
Even though i dont belive every thing Michael Moore has put in to films you cant deny the facts that are in the film.

For one, after 9/11 no internationall flight were allowed in/out of america...

So why did he order his own private jet to fly the Binladen family(who were harboring the cheif suspect in the muder of the people on 9/11) back to there own country?

Dont make sence to most?

To be honest mate, I stopped getting hugely irate about the war in Iraq, as it seems to me that it was going to happen regardless.

It's just fortunate for those involved that the end has justified the means to some degree.

All the stuff in the middle is the big mess - don't get me wrong, I like Micheal Moore. I've read all his books, and his revelation of the inscest and corruption within the US government and big business is terrifying!

Hit the nail on the head there Richard, the corruption in the big business' / Government US/UK etc ... is so deep rooted and well managed it will never come out.

So like people have said up the page, no one will ever really know the truth other then the people actually involved.....

glad to see some people here have their eyes open.

It would be wrong to blame it on GW. It was down to the puppeteers pulling his strings. Cheney, Rumsfeld etc. Although even GW can't keep his story straight. He has been recorded as saying "I saw the first plane hit the tower, and thought, thats a bad bit of piloting", when he never saw the first attack, he was reading a book in a school.

For those who still aren't convinced.... were you aware of the four Wargames going on that morning? I can PROVE that happened from this link. It shows Rumsfeld being grilled by US Senator McKinney, he doesn't really have any answers apart form um's and ahh's.

http://www.infowars.com/articles/us/...s_rumsfeld.htm

He is also asked about the mission TRILLIONS from the Pentagons "accounts"

I can also provide links to lots of other sources of evidence. What do you want to see?

As to why it was done? As I said, money, oil and control over the populus. Try doing some research into how many US politicians are directors of companies that "won" contracts in Iraq.

If you have peer to peer, I highly recommend watching "In Plane Site" and "Loose Change". They both present far more evidence than I can ever hope for in a thread. I have been studying and researching this for the last 6 months or so, some for far longer. If you refuse to believe me, then at least convince yourself nothing is up by looking around the net for conclusive proof of the "Official" story. (Some of which is censored).

And as for the Towers collapsing. Like I said, if you dropped a basketballl off the top of the towers at the same time they started collapsing, it would have reached the ground a few seconds after. If you put that into physic equations it just doesn't fit. Where did all the energy come from to pulverise all that concrete into itty little bits?

The good thing about all this investigation into 911, is that a BIG sex scandal in the White House has been discovered and people are getting worried.

Look up Jeff Gannon. White House reporter/gay prostitute.

Also for those who think people in power coiuld never plot against their own people, then look up Operation Northwoods, and The Riechstag fire.

no. michael moore was bought and paid for by the right people. he has now realised exactly how much more is going on.

also if you want to look up something even more provable, look up "The Franklin Cover Up" and start wondering how much of that goes on in this country.

Wutang, Rhys, Chip, Joris, b19, rudey, matt j (especially), and jim, send me a pm and I'll send you a DVD to PROVE all this. If you won't watch that, you can't really argue for the official story.

i know this is a bit off topic, but my opinion is that saddam hussain had to be taken out of power one way or another he was a tyrant and a dictator who basically starved his own people of their rights, whether we went to war for the right reasons or not im not so sure about but it had to be done sooner or later.

Oh, and I'll shut up and go back to posting cars once people have got their DVDs.
