...this Administration has chosen to make terrorism a domestic political tool, enlisting a scattered and largely defeated Al Qaeda as its bureaucratic ally. We spread disproportionate terror and confusion in the public mind, arbitrarily linking the unrelated problems of terrorism and Iraq. The result, and perhaps the motive, is to justify a vast misallocation of shrinking public wealth to the military and to weaken the safeguards that protect American citizens from the heavy hand of government. September 11 did not do as much damage to the fabric of American society as we seem determined to so to ourselves.... >>> Isn't this exactly what OBL said in his post 9-11 videotape: "The American government and the West will lead the American people into an unbearable hell and a choking life. Freedom and Human Rights in America are doomed. " >>> In other words, OBL was calculating that we would shoot ourselves in the foot by destroying our own freedoms... the things that make our country great.
