I must say I enjoy your posts a great deal. I also respect your knowledge and intelligence.

Don't forget, I am Canadian, not American,...and have a different view on government than you do I think,...but I understand why you would question all government.

I too ask myself who would benefit from the Pentagon stuff, considering the twin towers were demolished,...do the Americans need any more prodding to fight the Arab war?

I agree Israel has to answer some questions, but the Pentagon is a military base,...one of the best defended and secure in the western world. The outer ring of the Pentagon is meant to deflect missiles etc., from getting to the interior,...that is its design. Whether it was a bomb or a plane is irrelevant. Firewalls abound, and unlike the twin towers, the U.S. isn't going to allow anyone to see the effects of the blast for security reasons,....imagine if the whole pentagon was destroyed,...could any of us believe in the U.S. might??

I am answering your post of May 4 2002 at 12:14. Realize that my last two posts were under the influence of party and beer, and I hope I didn't say something stupid. Your view from South Africa is an interesting one,...and I don't want to lose it.
