Today, we continue to throw our soldiers' bodies into Afghanistan, and our drones’ rockets into Pakistan, to deny al Qaeda the supposed base from which to strike us again.

The media is eating it up and swallowing it whole. For example, CNN quotes a Pakistani from the Afghan border area, "Probably your next 9/11 is going to be from Swat."

That's not true either, of course: In the extraordinarily unlikely event Osama remains in the "caves of Tora Bora" (not where multi-millionaires with kidney disease tend to linger), any conceivable attack will be planned, funded and organized from comfy hotel rooms in Paris, Germany and Dubai as is the habit of these well-heeled hellions.

The truth is, we're not in Afghanistan to stop al Qaeda's US attackers, because they weren't "based" there in the first place, and their leaders are not there now.

So, why are we now re-invading Afghanistan? Beats me. I just hope our President will give us a hint that doesn’t involve some cockamamie fairytale about 9/11 and al Qaeda.

The 9/11 attackers were mostly from Saudi Arabia and did the planning in Germany. So we did what any normal country would do - attack Afghanistan and Iraq.

> So, why are we now re-invading Afghanistan?

The Saudis are friends with the Bush family, Pakistan has the bomb, Iran has too many allies and we're already in Iraq.

Are y'all in the same homeroom?

Wait long enough and somebody will say 9/11 never happened. So we shouldn't be in Iraq or Afghanistan or Pakistan, or anywhere for that matter. Disband the military and refund the 700 billion dollars. I have plenty of uses for my share.

An education?

people already forgot that 9/11 wasn't connected to Iraq or Afghanistan, it was Saudi Arabia.

many are in complete denial that Iraq & 9/11 are NOT connected.

even more are deluded that we bombed then invaded iRaq for the right reasons.

That we can agree on! Talk about repeating something so much that people believe it.

Of course not. Everybody knows 9/11 was an inside job, pulled off by that wily, clever-like-a-fox Bush, with the help of the Mossad.

"Mind your wants, cuz there's someone that wants your mind."

Of course 9/11 and Iraq are connected.

W wanted to settle his father's vendetta, and Iraq was well-located to serve as a US base of operations for a decades-long holy war on Islam.
Plus, all that juicy oil just sitting there for imperialist plundering.


What about that doesn't make sense to you folks?

Trees are poems that earth writes upon the sky,
We fell them down and turn them into paper,
That we may record our emptiness.

You forgot that another plus was that we'd have Iran surrounded by American forces and they would be intimidated into cowing to US demands and never able to form a close association with an elected Shi'ite dominated government in Iraq.

I'd like to get some of that "free" Iraqi oil we are plundering. Where is the gas pump?
