An entire terrorist operation is not that sophisticated IMO, if they had an accomplice in one single airport...What is sophisticated is to find suicide bombers and trained them in the navigation...Well, if Egypt-Air fanatic-pilot has crushed his plane, I am sure that there are others like him to train...

Most of my family and friends come from the Noam Chomsky mold. We spend a lot of time criticizing the hypocrisy and outright brutality of American foreign policy. All of them today had the same reaction as I did. As a matter of fact, we sat down tonight and watched a documentary on Noam Chomsky which we had rented yesterday, called "Manufacturing Consent". In fact, this nation has been attacked in a brutal act of war, and the fact that you refuse to acknowledge that, and seemingly even condone it, strikes me as rather traitorous. Yet another one of your tired moralistic lashings-out. This is a without a doubt brutal act of war, which I am passionately against. In fact, I think war is too nice a word, because wars are usually not supposed to be fought on civilians. Just don't forget that this brutal act of terror pales in comparison to Hiroshima and Nagasaki. If I am a traitor for caring more about human life than national boundaries, so be it. By my viewpoint, that makes you a Fascist more than it makes me a traitor. The fact that you react to my posts pointing out the massive number of innocent people America has killed without justification, but do not react to people calling for the mass slaughter of Arab and Muslim civilians, seems to underline that viewpoint.

Re: In fact, this nation has been attacked in a brutal act of war, and the fact that you refuse to acknowledge that, and seemingly even condone it, strikes me as rather traitorous. But hey.. that's your opinion. I just want to know if you show as much guts in private as you show in public. Do you, Mr Hawkmoon, possess any EVIDENCE about not only the underlings who committed yesterday's outrageous attacks, but the mastermind as well?? Indeed, this is too serious a matter for the Americans to fool themselves about their overt enemies, closet enemies, potential allies, and "foul weather" friends... Perhaps a lead to what happened yesterday lies in a following post of mine: Message 15635143 Now, this Tadjik chief rebel Masood was targeted just 2 days prior the terrorist assaults in the US: Wednesday September 12, 2:38 AM Masood alive: son of Afghan ambassador to India NEW DELHI, Sept 11 (AFP) - Afghan opposition commander Ahmad Shah Masood is alive and recovering from injuries suffered in Sunday's suicide bombing, a relative of the Afghan ambassador to India, also wounded in the attack, said Tuesday. Mahmoud Khalili, the son of the Afghan envoy to India, Masood Khalili, said both his father and anti-Taliban alliance commander Ahmad Shah Masood were being treated for wounds suffered in the attack. [...] sg.news.yahoo.com So far, we don't know for sure whether Masood is still alive. Perhaps Masood knew too much about the terrorist plot... Perhaps he helped recruit the manpower to infiltrate the US airports...
