There is an old joke; how many people does it take to change a light bulb? That joke has many variations as to who the people are one is speaking of. In this case, I will use the government of the United States of America. With that said; how many governmental officials does it take to change a light bulb? Do you want to know the answer to that one? None are able to do it since they cannot come up with any agreement of how the light bulb is to be changed. Most likely, they cannot even come up with what type of light bulb they are to use and how much money it will cost to purchase this light bulb. Also while going to the store, they will add on other items to increase the amount of this purchase and that is known as pork.
With all of that said, it still boggles my mind how some will even think that the government had the smarts to pull off the terrorists attacks of 9/11 given the fact they have a hard time coming to any form of consensus of how to govern the people. Like it or not, we have a turnip-truck government.
As Americans are confronted with ever increasing gas prices which tack on what price we pay for food items and how much it will cost us to get to work, one must wonder; just how many of these elected officials fell off the turnip truck and hit their heads in their failure to address and correct this problem.
This same turnip-truck government cannot even seem to run a war correctly since we have been bogged down in Iraq fighting those that did not even attack us on 9/11. The people told them in the last election that they wanted this war ended and it seems that our turnip-truck officials are in need of hearing aids. As in the Sprint commercial, I feel like saying; can you hear me now?
In the movie ‘Forrest Gump’, Forrest Gump states, “Stupid is as stupid does” and in the past six going on seven years, I have also come to a conclusion we have a stupid is as stupid does government. Yet, I am supposed to believe that these bozos were capable of pulling off 9/11?
Many of the readers who did respond to me in a private email stated that they did not view the three-hour video that took apart the docu-fantasy ‘Loose Change’ and it is kind of sad that they chose not to. You see, one of the points brought forth in that three-hour feed is that some think that they the terrorists were too stupid to pull this attack off. I find that condescending to the Arab community as a whole. Not to throw accolades at these monsters, but terrorist networks take an incredible amount of smarts if they are to remain undetected.
They will often blend in with those who they think are infidels and take up their habits so as not to raise any suspicion. Those habits are drinking, smoking and wearing cologne. This way they do not raise any red flags.
In fact, Mohammad Atta one of the hijackers of 9/11 even attended college. I do not call that being stupid. Do you?
These cells will even look to recruit Americans who may be angry with our government such as John Walker Lindh. Presently, he is serving a twenty-year sentence at the Supermax Prison in Florence, Colorado.
This past Sunday, the CBS program ‘Sixty Minutes’ interviewed a former terrorist named Nasir Abas. Through his defection from the terrorist group, Jemaah Islamiyah which is al Qaeda’s Southeast Asia franchise he has been able to give authorities an incredible amount of information as to how this organization operates.For those that think that groups like this are just too stupid to pull off any attack, Nasir Abas, “trained hundreds of young militants to become terrorists and became one of the most wanted men in the region. For 20 years, he worked to achieve an Islamic state throughout Southeast Asia.”
In this interview it was reported that this terrorist organization was responsible for “Two massive bombs blew that paradise apart, killing 202 people. The victims were mostly young people from Australia, the U.S. and the U.K.” While Nasir Abas had nothing to do with this attack, he did train them. The very thing that turned him around was that he felt sinful after this attack occurred.
If you still do not believe in suicide terrorists like the ones that flew those planes into buildings on 9/11, I want you to watch this video of the suicide bomber who took the lives of innocent people in Bali.
In writing of the blow-back effect in previous articles in which certain actions of our government have unintended consequences one of them was funding the Mujahideen in the Soviet/Afghan War which gave rise to the Taliban and Osama bin Laden. In fact, I wrote of this very blow-back that once the Soviets were defeated they would come after us.
They came after us during the 93’ Twin Tower’s attack, the two embassy bombings in Africa, the U.S.S. Cole and on 9/11.
In the Sixty Minutes interview, you will read, “Like so many terrorists around the world, the bombers learned their trade in Afghanistan. Hundreds of militants from Southeast Asia traveled there in the 1980's to defend Islam against the Soviet occupiers. They trained as Mujahideen in a rugged camp, which Abas calls a military academy.”
