Yes, why wasn't President Bush on top of this in January of 1995?

Quote: "These and other unanswered questions have led to several theories that Bush let the attack happen. One being as an excuse to remove the Taliban from power in Afghanistan which was considered an obstacle to exploitation of Caspian Sea oil. Another may have been to grease the path for draconian measures through the congress. Some, including this writer, believe it to be a combination of the two."

The author looses all credability with this paragraph.

CNN reported on Project Bojinka in 1995. All the info in here was pretty much available then to the american public, who refused to notice it because most of the people were more concerned about what kind of BJ BJC was happening to get.

Bojinka is terribly inconvenient for the FBI and averyone else pantsed by the terrorists on 9/11 because it directly and very specifically makes it an outright LIE that nobody could have guessed the 9/11 terrorists would use planes as bombs. Any official above the level of janitor who told you it was inconcievable a damned liar, plain and simple.

"Bojinka" is a "Serbo-Croatian" word, which suggests a linkage to "Bosnian" muslims and/or mjuehadin who fought in Bosnia.

According to an article in the Fianacial Times last November, "Much of the military experience of the current generation of fighters who have joined al-Qaeda was gained in Bosnia, where Muslim forces and communities have received millions of dollars of funding from Iran, Saudi Arabia and other countries."

More recently, a raid on the Benevolence International Foundation in Bosnia (one of those muslim "charities" that funnels money to terrorists--it has "American" muslim ties as well) showed a link between the head of that organization, bin Laden, bin Laden's brother-in-law, and Ramzi Yousef, the mastermind of WTC '93 and of Project Bojinka.

The US had NO BUSINESS backing the muslims against the Serbs in Bosnia, or anywhere else. And it has no business continuing to do so.

In a free country, government officials do not pretend to be clairvoyant.

Most of the faggot terrorists themselves didn't even know they were on a suicide/homicide mission the morning of September 11th. How could anyone who wasn't a mad-dog Islamic goat-f****r be expected to know?

Once we give our government officials permission to pretend to be clairvoyant, all bets are off.

I don't blame Dubya or Clinton or the CIA or the FBI for September 11th.

I blame mad-dog Islamic goat-f*****s like the homicide bombers murdering innocent Israelis on a daily basis.

Yousef was also charged as the mastermind of the 1993 bombing of the World Trade Center and was later tried and convicted of that terrorist strike in which four others were already serving life sentences.

I recall thinking at the time that purposely, there was very sparse media coverage. Primarily trial results. Compare to OJ. Add major media to the list of those who let us down.

Okay, it's not entirely on topic, but I did promise that free market economist who has written on star wars. It's Ludvig von Mises (well, an article on his site anyway)

The basic thesis is that the Jedi are protecting a free market democracy from a government-corporate oligarchy (which we seem to be becoming) and Star Wars is an allegory on current economic policy.

There is more than one article but here is one:

http://www.mises.org/fullartic le.asp?record=277&month=11

I noticed in The Clone Wars that the allegory will be continued. Annakin Skywalker, near the end of the movie, says he wants the Power to keep bad things from happening to anyone. Where have we heard that before? Government will protect us totally if only we give them all the power. Right now they will protect us from terrorists if we only give up things like state's rights, habeus corpus, peaceful assembly and protest, and so forth.
