darra, as Jay says, that's not food for thought.

China's rulers and all the way down to the bottom of the heap want stability, prosperity, peace and power. They won't get that by allowing anyone to attack the WTC buildings and Pentagon. <New evidence that has been left at the CIA suggests that the Chinese not only knew, but also encouraged, and now is arming the Afghanistan people.

Eight hours after the fatal terrorist attack, the CIA got word from a inside source in Beijing that the Communist leaders knew 6 months in advance of the attack, but did nothing as hard-liners inside the government wanted this attack to take place.

Jay was closer to the correct theory but not quite there. I can't actually tell you the truth of the cause, [I'm sworn to secrecy], but you will find an old Kiwi guy in Eketahuna, who immigrated from China before the Japanese arrived, [which has recently suffered some unfortunate and unexplained fires] who is the mastermind behind the whole drama.

PS: This is starting to sound like the shot heard around the world which kicked off WWI. A successful plot and attack led to positioning of the political powers and away it went into mayhem.

I guess my figure of speech for USS Enterprise representing the US economy, financial institutions, political, legislative, military system is now under test as the aircraft carrier USS Enterprise is positioned ready for instructions.

Indian national news site says a small US force has landed in Pakistan:

US marines land in Pakistan: report

Islamabad, Sep 15


US troops landed at Islamabad International Airport on Friday morning, two Pakistani dalies reported.

According to unofficial reports, a contingent of over 50 personnel from the Special Services Group of the US Marines' Green Seals have landed for conducting 'target oriented' operations against Bin Laden, prime suspect in the terrorist strikes in the US.

A military plane brought the US troops to Islamabad, who were then taken to an unknown place.

Islamabad Airport remained closed from 3 to 5am on Friday morning-- which according to the eyewitness account was the time of arrival of US troops.

A senior official told The News that "some kind of a military exercise" was going on at the time of the closure of the airport.

"There is a normal schedule of such type of exercises, and one should not worry about it," said the senior official.

The Nation daily on Saturday reported that a special plane carrying over two dozen foreigners landed at the Chakala airbase in early Friday.

hi darra,

I see no future for China by participating in this type of venture. Even from a purely selfish standpoint it is in China's best interest to have a safe and vibrant US.

Kastel

Certainly food for thought here

Junk food for thought. The report is sensationalsitic. Should be discounted.

National Enquirer probably has more journalistic integrity.

Next time when you post some JUNK like this, hope you can provide some kind of link. Otherwise, someone would suspect you might be the one who wrote those<g>. Just a friendly reminder.

China will jump up and down and extremely happy if the US can take out Taliban. China is also the victim of those extremenists, mind you!
