No, we have not "brought to justice" those who attacked us on 9*11...

[Skip Intro]

Today's events, whether part of a conspiracy theory to build up and then take down a replacement "boogie-man" for osama - a creation of the warmongering psy-op mesmerizing and murderous thugs who currently reign in dc, or a truly evil byproduct of the chaos we've brought to Iraq on false pretenses, we have not, in any way, with today's events, brought anyone responsible for the 9*11 attacks that were allowed, through the incompetence (or planning) of the current regime, to justice.

The warparty will rally now, (ceremonial) torches in hand. Critical thinking not allowed. Sadly, the mob will only be silenced by the the even greater, newly "justified" flow of the blood of our troops, and the flood of that of innocent Iraqis (no, not zarq).

Today's events do not give justification to our fraudluent, mass-murdering attack/occupation of Iraq.

The media and the warmongers have had a wargasm today. More death and destruction will be the only logical cousre of action now. Cheer the fake war. But none of them will point out that neither zarq, nor saddam, nor Iraq had nothing to do with 9*11.

Nothing like a new coat of paint, tho, eh?

1. Yeah, but you're forgetting...

...that the war isn't just about 9/11. Its about making...ah...the world...er...safe or something...for...some stuff or whatever...over there but not...sort of...here. Yeah, that's it! I knew there was a good reason.

[dailykoff]

2. Neither did Afghanistan, Syria, Hamas, or Iran

have anything to do with 9/11, which leaves our friends Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, and of course Haliburton.

:shrug:

3. NO we have not. And I doubt we will ever know the *REAL* story behind

al-zarqawi. It still amazes me how many rush to believe the official drivel, especially if it makes everything nice and warm and cozy and good triumphs over evil and our government would never lie to us. Simply amazing. This whole zarqawi death incident appears to be as stage managed as the umpteenth performance of CATS. And to question is to bring the wrath of the nice tight package crowd and their jeering conspiracy taunts. As if the bush* administration has been such a reliable source of information. How many times has this guy died now, with our without both legs? I wonder how much mileage they're looking to get out of this one.

4. They're going to get quite a bit of mileage out of it

if all the "Two Minutes Hate" threads that have popped up here are any indication

8. When was the last time you heard his name before he was killed?

I had forgotten he even existed and was like "oh, is that the name of that Al Qaida dude from way back when?"

[Mr_Spock]

7. But he was insignificant, so why does it matter what story they tell us?

...and Al Qaida has even announced his death. What's not to believe?

My only thought is "so what?" - as if this will even be remembered a month from now. His name hadn't been in the news for ages anyway.

[Raster]

9. it matters because once again his reported death is being used as yet

another Iraq war rallying point, yet another example of the war turning in "our" favor. It's blarney, plain and simple, just like the rest of the propaganda coming out of DC. It's propaganda. Deliberate misinformation. And it serves to cloud the issue: Iraq is a failure and predicated on lies. We are NOT winning. Our presence in Iraq is a complete and total mistake.

[Mr_Spock]

11. Not one person mentioned it at work today...

Not one. My family never mentioned it once tonight. My GF never brought it up on the phone tonight.

This is a news story only for political people, the rest know that it is basically meaningless until the bombings stop & all our soldiers are home & safe.

Our presence in Iraq is still a mistake and will be for years to come - let's not forget the big picture here.

[Raster]

13. It's the lead story in both newspapers in Seattle. Front page.

It's been BLASTED all over the news continuosly. Forget the big picture?

[Mr_Spock]

14. You are bound and determined to miss the point here...

Oh, well - I've very rarely had another DUer say "hey, you're probably right" - though it does happen from time to time.

I guess this is my last post in this thread - give me one last parting shot and I'll see you in another post sometime :D

[Raster]

15. could it be that you're rarely "probably right"?

Sorry, couldn't resist the setup. Have a good evening.

[Mr_Spock]

17. hehe - not funny

I don't find that particulary funny, the "herding cats" saying about Dems is, unfortunately, all too true. So often people who agree on 99.9% of an issue will argue to the death over that 0.1%. Oh, well, I guess it's representative of the type of person who questions everything - as we should. I find it frustrating all too often.

[Raster]

18. Live long and prosper, my friend. It's a new day and a Friday to boot.

Please, have a lovely weekend. Just curious, where are you?

[Mr_Spock]

19. Mass here

Stupid raining dreary Mass :(

[diamondsndust]

16. it was back page news in our local paper here....

barely even a mention... in Tennessee, no less...

5. How many IED's were planted by the CIA?

They did it in Vietnam. They blew up bombs and got the media in there to make sure it was covered. That'll get the Americans to rally along with the cause. And in Iraq, we don't even have the diguise of fighting against something like Communism. Well we are pretty sure Saddam was on the CIA payroll. (edit- I actually meant Bin Laden. Not Saddam.) That really ought to raise warning flags with people. It's hardly noticed. Zar...however it's spelled...qawi is probably not much more than another phoney target boogie man. Who knows? We do know that it's all for nothing. Zero. Not even for freedom, whatever the hell that is.

I have a feeling this death is supposed to be symbolic. Whose meaning is to signal that the war in Iraq is now over. I have this thought that it's just the administrations way of saying they can legitimately move on. On to Iran? Some think that can't and won't happen. But this might be the pivotal moment.

Totally aside, I just realized what an incredible movie this is all going to make. When everyone is dead, and the tears are dry. I see the breakin to the Turkish embassy. The letterheads. The sequence of events that lead to an untraceable document that eventually led to this horrible and illegal aggression. I just want to see it ending in justice. And never happening again.

I had to get that out. Sorry if it doesn't fit into this thread.

6. Wargasm, that's perfect. K & R

:toast:

[earth mom]

10. K & R! Gawd, I'm SO sick of the spin!

:puke:

12. Pretty sad to see how many DU'rs were seduced by the "wargasm" today...

Great post!
