I constantly argue against the "Loose Change" crowd. I see no reason to suspect that The Bush Admin had any direct hand in 9-11. Even if they wanted such a thing to happen, direct involvement has never been their style. They are the masters of "plausible deniability".
One must deal with the FACT that PNAC p
ublished, online, for all the world to see, that they wanted to invade Iraq. They did this in 2000. They also stated that they did not believe that the US populace would get on board with such an attack, unless The US suffered "an attack of Pearl Harbor Proportions". All of this is FACT, and is NOT subject to rational debate.
It is ALSO FACT, that the founding CAUSE of Al Qaeda, is to form a "Global Caliphate". This amounts to a global "kingdom" with Al Qaeda's form of Islam, "Wahhabism", being the "rules" which are to be followed.
It is also FACT that the leaders of Al Qaeda believe that the easiest, and quickest way to create such a "Global Caliphate" is to "Radicalize the Arab Street". The "Arab Street" is a term that refers to the sum of all average citizens in the Arab world.
It is ALSO fact, that Al Qaeda believes that the easiest and quickest catalyst to "Radicalizing The Arab Street" is an attack by a western nation, on an Arab nation.
It is ALSO fact that Al Qaeda HATED Iraq's government, as it was SECULAR, and it's practices were directly against everything Wahabi Islam teaches.
Let's Recap:
a) Al Qaeda wants a "Global Caliphate"
b) Al Qaeda believes that the easiest and quickest way to said "Global Caliphate" is if "The Arab Street" becomes radicalized.
c) Al Qaeda believes that the quickest and easiest catalyst for "Radicalizing The Arab Street" is a western power attack on an Arab nation
d) Iraq is an Arab Nation
e) The US is a western power
f) Iraq is exactly the nation that Al Qaeda would WANT a western nation to attack, as being BOTH an Arab nation, AND secular, it both meets their criteria for "Radicalizing The Arab Street", and is the Arab nation they'd most want to see thrown into chaos, as it's policies are in direct conflict with Wahabi Islam
g) PNAC ADVERTISED that they wanted to attack Iraq, but needed an "Attack on The United States, of Pearl Harbor Proportions" before the US population would get on board.
h) When GWB took office, he pulled half of PNAC into his admin (Chenet, Rumsfeld, Perle, Wolfowitz, et al)
i) For some "strange" reason, Bush spent most of his first year in office on vacation
j) US intelligence agencies reported to The Bush Admin, prior to 9-11, that "Al Qaeda is determined to attack The US"
j) On 9-11, the parts of our military that would be equipped to handle such threats, are off on unprecedented maneuvers.
k) In Bush's first year of office, an Administration chock full of Neocons, just happens to experience "An attack on The US of Pearl Harbor Proportions", which they ultimately use to scare the populace into accepting an invasion of Iraq. Despite the fact that Iraq had no involvement in 9-11, said administration spent the better part of a year and a half REPEATEDLY, day after day, comment after comment STRONGLY IMPLYING that said nation DID.
I guess I'm just paranoid.
