Islamic Terrorism before 9/11

I think you hit the nail on the head. Osama bin Laden's plan backfired. Osama bin Laden's plan has been a complete failure.

But I think WE also made the mistake of going into Iraq. I totally understand why they went into Afghanistan.. but then they jump to Iraq, and WE STILL HAVE NOT CAPTURED Osama!

It probably would not make a difference if they did...but still.

Yes, Osama started this - he had a tizzy fit about the US helping the Saudis - long ago. They asked for our help, and they had said NO to Osama, and Osama was p***ed off about that! That's sort of where it all started...

I read somewhere a couple years ago-in print actually, if I'm remembering correctly, that UBL's decent into hate and hell began when he was a playboy back in the late '70s and early '80s in Germany, a woman (presumably western) supposedly laughed at the size of his penis. I wish I could find it on the net (I admit, I haven't looked that hard) but it makes a interesting twist-however unverified.

Not sure where to post this... but just a "heads-up"

Speaking of 9/11/2001.. as I was watching a CNN Larry King Live recording regarding Irwin, I caught the commercial showing this:

---- off topic a bit, but more HEADS UP on TV as some might be interested in this ----

I just checked (titantv.com which is better than TVguide.com) and it shows this schedule for the History Channel:

(it is a Premier which I believe this is the first time they've ever played this)

World War III: Beyond Lebanon HIST 37 09/09/2006 12:00 AM

World War III: Beyond Lebanon HIST 37 09/10/2006 6:00 PM

The description shows: This special examines the history behind the recent war in Lebanon and the potential for this regional crisis to erupt into a global conflict. We analyze how Hezbollah's alliances with Syria, Iran, and other countries, along with Israel's close ties to the United States, could help propel what began as a border skirmish into World War III.

I will to record this to my computer... I know some people do not get this channel.

Also, when I was searching, I found this too:

Al-Jazeera Airs Pre-9/11 Bin Laden Tape

Al-Jazeera Airs What It Says Is a Videotape Showing Bin Laden Meeting With 9/11 Hijackers

The Associated Press

CAIRO, Egypt Sep 7, 2006 (AP)— Al-Jazeera broadcast Thursday what it called a previously unshown video in which al-Qaida chief Osama bin Laden is seen meeting with some of the Sept. 11 hijackers. The station did not say how it obtained the video, which was produced by As-Sahab, al-Qaida's media branch.

The video showed bin Laden sitting with his former lieutenant Mohammed Atef and Ramzi Binalshibh, another suspected planner of the Sept. 11, 2001, suicide hijackings.

Atef, also known as Abu Hafs al-Masri, was killed by a U.S. airstrike in Afghanistan in 2001. Binalshibh was captured four years ago in Pakistan and is in U.S. custody, and this week President Bush announced plans to put him on military trial.

In the video, bin Laden was wearing a dark robe and white headgear walking in a mountainous area. He smiled as he greeted several men, which the tape said were Sept. 11 hijackers.

It is an interesting coincidence that Osama bin Laden and Adolf Hitler were both subjected to chemical weapons attacks. Bin Laden in Afghanistan during the Soviet occupation. Hitler in WW1. Both of them turned into megalomaniacs. Maybe something in the chemicals they were exposed to had something to do with it.

After watching this show, and other things I've recorded and watched recently, I have a terrible sinking feeling my 3 yr. old twin boys will have to be part of some horrible "Human Tribal War" in the future. And as a mother, this depresses me very much. I already have one son,(my son-in-law) in Ramadi, Iraq right now.. *sigh*

When will we ever learn from our past mistakes that WAR is not always the answer?

*praying for PEACE always*

Human tribal war has been a constant since the beginning of the human race. It's not something President Bush or Osama bin Laden invented.

Osama didn't fly airplanes into buildings. He is still alive right?

Sadly it is human nature.
