What was the catalyst for the trade center attack.
Osama bin Laden and the Taliban received threats of possible American military strikes against them two months before the terrorist assaults on New York and Washington, which were allegedly masterminded by the Saudi-born fundamentalist, a Guardian investigation has established.
The threats of war unless the Taliban surrendered Osama bin Laden were passed to the regime in Afghanistan by the Pakistani government, senior diplomatic sources revealed yesterday.

It is likely more than 6000 people died. I don't think I would call that hysteria you POS.

There are a group of people who have associated themselves on foreign soil and have avowed themselves to die to uphold their cause of killing Americans. This is a war.

You are some piece of work.

bin Laden: "Every American man is our enemy."

Anyone see "60 Minutes" Wednesday? They had a tape of an interview with bin Laden made a few years ago where he said that.

I'd say he seriously underestimated us. Good. We're EXTREMELY dangerous when angered. Ask the Japanese or Germans.

We can't bomb the Afghanis back into the Stone Age; they're already there. Let's blow them off the planet.
