7. Once you accept that this "age of terror" began with a fraud, the fear
Edited on Sun Sep-24-06 10:56 PM by No Exit
goes away.

Once you realize that there are way too many unanswered questions about 9/11, the fear goes away. Something happened that day, but it didn't happen from the causes that THEY (the smirking chimp and his mighty Wurlitzer paid media) say it happened from.

Once you realize that, suddenly you begin to look at, for example, the latest "Osama tape" with a very critical eye. How do we really KNOW that these tapes are for real? The answer: we don't. Therefore, assertions that they are not real--and there are many such assertions, backed up by intelligent people--are as entitled to consideration as are the administration's claims that they ARE real.

I was just reading today how, in fact, the U.S. warned various countries that it would be invading Afghanistan. These warnings were given in JUNE and JULY of 2001. One of the sources for this article was the BBC.

Now, how the hell is it that we plan to invade Afghanistan, and by the happiest of coincidences, it just HAPPENS that a huge atrocity suddenly takes place, and, wonder of wonders, we find out that the persons in charge of the Afghan government (the Taliban) just HAPPEN to be the ones "hiding" the perpetrator of the atrocity?

And look how most or all of the subsequent terror scares--such as the shoeless warehouse guys in Florida, or even the "gel" scare--turn out to be bullshit.

Once you realize these things, you lose the fear. The world has not changed. It is the same as it was before 9/11. All previous rules still apply. John Kerry was never more accurate than when he said that "terrorism" is a POLICE problem--not a military problem.
