TINFOIL TINTINNABULATIONS Re: I also note that you seem to be an insider? That's news to me. What do you suppose I'm inside of? ************* "Is It Just Me? Or is there a conspiracy going on here?" Dept.: (This one another beaut!) nielsenhayden.com Quote: Can't...stop...self...must...don...tinfoil...hat: (1) Prominent Republican Thomas Kean, former governor of New Jersey, is the new chairman of the 9/11 commission. (2) Kean is also a director of petroleum company Amerada Hess. (3) In 1988, Amerada Hess formed a joint venture with Saudi company Delta Oil. (4) One of Delta Oil's backers is Khalid bin Mahfouz, who is--here's where you need to clap your hat firmly to your skull--married to one of Osama Bin Laden's sisters. And suspected of financing Al Qaeda. Oh, and named in one of the lawsuits brought by 9/11 victims. Did we mention that he's also been involved in deals with the Carlyle Group, the ultra-secret investment group that includes, among others, George H. W. Bush? And also in deals with--yes, your tinfoil hat, properly adjusted, plays 1980s popular music!--BCCI? (5) Three weeks before Kean's appointment, Amerada Hess severed its ties with Delta. Source: Fortune magazine. I realize that only unreasonable people would make anything of the above. Why would anyone possibly worry about the fact that every time we turn around another prominent Administration member turns out to be up to his ass in business connections with shadowy Al-Qaeda supporters? Certainly I'm not worried. That would be tinfoil hat stuff. Not for me! I dismiss my misgivings with a stern flick of my Rational Mind! Also, monkeys fly out of my butt. <End quote> ******** Obviously, a very disturbed individual.
