It is a bit of courtesy to post links to your material when used. Intellectual honesty is nice to have, esp. here in the PDD when making an argument. I realize you're merely being a bit facetious when posting such a rant from someone else (and then subbing in George's name), but it does further demonstrate that you are creating a straw man fallacy against George in doing so, all kidding aside.

Anyone can Google - nothing "smart" about that really. As for my looks, well admittedly I could use all the help I can get in that category, so looking "smart" could help I suppose.
| quote: | | George IMPLIED Bin Laden was jus a cash man....which is not true...i created no straw man. |
He hasn't actually implied bin Laden being more or less a cash man - he's directly come out and said pretty much just that. This was not what I was addressing, however. Rather, this was:
| quote: | | but u IMPLY he wasnt very much involved and shouldnt be a concern to authorities. |
Which George said or implied nothing of the sort. What George did actually state was this:
| quote: | | Dont get me wrong, I'm not saying he was not involved cos he clearly was, and I'm not saying it was wrong to take him out, cos he is clearly a danger, but my objection is t the notion of what al-Qaida is (or isn't). And it isn't an international network of terrorists. There are terrorist cells in most countries, probably planning attacks - but these are not al-Qaida cells, they are all individual cells (some of whom may very well ask bin Laden for financing) |
So let's all take a deep breath and try to address each other's arguments at hand. Deal?

Ok well who says Sheik Mohammed is their number 3? Those news papers you quoted? And where did they get their information from? All I am doing is presenting an alternative theory of al-Qaida (constructed by experts) that is different to the one the US government (and others) pushes on us. Dont you even find it a little bit interesting that experts are challenging what your government is telling you? I would find it pretty sad if you didn't... |
Every news source in the world says he was number 3...i am sure everyone here would agree with me on AT LEAST that. I even posted a link to the BBC who said he was...and u seem to trust the BBC.
I understand what u are trying to say....and yes it makes sense...but to be honest i think all of these nut jobs should be gathered up...call them Al Qaeda, The Base or anything else...they are a threat to civil societies.
Even if Bin Laden was just a financier he is still GUILTY...so it really makes no difference if he planned it or payed for it...he still needs to come down...along with the rest of these idiotic dipshits who think they will go to paradise if they do this or that.
And no, i do not beleieve everything my government tells me, nor do i beleive every book i read (yes i do read lol) and no i dont beleive every documentrary i see because EVERYONE has their own ajenda...whether it is to further their politcal career, get more oil, become famous or sell a shit load of books.
Personally i gave up caring.....too much hype over it all...two thing i do know is, one,this world is majorly fucked...and, two, i cant do a thing about it.
All the ranting and raving Chomsky aka looney boy, Zinn aka sick bastard and Moore aka fat boy have done has brought zero results....the world will alway be fucked...i jus live in my little space and hope no one fucks with mine.
And to be honest...if what u say is true about Bin Laden, why is that Al Jazeera hasnt come out and made major remarks against what American gov. says? YOu would think they would. Just a thought.
Anyway...like i said...u could be right or you could be wrong...but does it change a damn thing? And please save the rheotic that if everyone cared then the world would be better or all that every vote count bullshit.....i have lived 30 years on this planet...and i have never seen anyone with the "TRUTH" make a shit of difference in the way things go down.
There will always be sickos in this world...there has been the begining of time and nothing will chnage that...and certainly not some BBC documentrary or kids on a trance site who claim to know the truth because they tripped upon the truth while trolling the internet. You dont know the truth, Opus doesnt know the truth, Renegade doesnt know the truth, OCC doesnt know the truth and i sure as shit dont know the truth of what shit happens behind the scenes....and to be honest i gave up trying to find it...it too damn depressing and i got better shit to do....
I used to be all into this crap, till i realized life is too damn short to worry....i live my life the best i can and dont hurt other people and thats all that anyone could ask for.
Sorry for flaming ya...i knew what u meant the whole time...it was jus a rainy day here and i felt like fucking with u all day...lol...sorry...
