Let's go back to September 27, 2001, shall we?
Chalmers Johnson wrote an incredible article for The Nation on that day for an upcoming October issue in the magazine and I think everyone should read it! Bush keeps saying that the terrorists attacked us on 9/11 because of our freedoms. We all know that was nonsense! Johnson laid it out extremely well back then, but of course, the nation had turned to the Bush Regime for guidance and Americans were not reading anything by the liberals. I, for one, never saw this piece, but as I read down it now, I realize I was right on the money (as well as other liberals and democrats were too!) about why we were really attacked. Lining the pockets of the Bush Regime was just the tip of the iceberg behind the 9/11 attack.... Hat tip to "c0rp0rate pr0fits" (his screenname) on AMERICAblog for finding this article and posting it for all of us to read! Pass the article on to everyone you know please.

So....why did they attack the WTC in 1993 when Clinton was in the white house? Why did they blow up our barracks, attempt to kill Bush Sr., blow up 2 embassies, nearly sink a destroyer, and start planning 9/11 years before Bush even ran for president?
How can ALL this be a tit for tat on account of Bush or 'evil' corporations?
Are you claiming the terrorists would love us if Bush died or the Dems won power?

Isn't it interesting that Bush Sr. during the 1980's used our CIA to help out Osama (they trained him to use our munitions) and then suddenly.........al-Qaida was born.
How come Bush Sr. never told our nation that al-Qaida was bad in the 1980's?
Was Bush Sr. pissed off enough at Clinton for winning that he used his new al-Qaida buddies to prove the Clinton was the wrong choice? Could be.
Isn't al-Qaida useful to the Bush family for disrupting world markets? Yup.
Didn't you notice as the 2000 election was coming that al-Qaida started increasing their bombings and there was a Bush on the ticket for that election?
Prove to me that Bush Sr.'s had an attempt on his life.
When has al-Qaida been working hard to get the democrats in power? They've been helpful to the republicans by far. Everytime there is A FAKE AL-QAIDA PLOT......THE REPUBLICAN POLL NUMBERS GO UP!
The republicans are on the side of al-Qaida......not the democrats.

This article was written just after the horrors of 9-11 and the BLOWBACK is MUCH worse today, compounded by the multitudes of bad choices made by Bush, Cheney and Dumsfeld.
The Fiasco's they have wrought by those bad choices, and their PIGHEADED stubbornness to stay their FAILED course are continuing to create many new situations of blowbacks.
Like the illogical way they handled the Israel Hezbollah war. They OPENLY sided with Israel for too many days. and their resupply of BOMBS which were falling on the Lebanese people not just Hezbollah pushes the non-Hezbollah citizens of Lebanon into their camp away from the US. The Blowback from that will probably come back to Haunt the US like the CIA operation of 1953 in Tehran came back to bite us in 1979, even after 46 years. The blowback of the TOTAL Fiasco in IRAQ is frightening because it places the US as a Nation which has attacked an Arab nation with no LEGAL cause especially from their standpoint. Bush was seeking revenge on Saddam for his attempt on Bush's father, and the PNAC neo-cons in the Pentagon and VP's office were working out plans that were years old by 2003...some had been hatched in the early 90's.
But the most terrifying DUMB thing the PNAC neo-cons are doing is CLOSING their eyes while Pakistan is building a nuclear reactor which will be used to make plutonium, enough P239 to make 50 bombs a year, the same Pakistan where most of the al Qaeda have sought refuge, and where the plots seem to come out of. And the Saudis funded the madrases in Pakistan where the majority of the terrorists get their calling from today, Pakistan the same country which Osama (you know the guy Bush forgot) and Mullah Omar sought refuge in since Nov 2001, and have not been "caught" yet.
Bush thinks this Pakistan is not too unstable or dangerous to have Nuclear bombs and a reactor to make about 50 more each year.
This is a list of high level terrorists who were caught in Pakistan;
1 A senior al Qaeda commander allegedly tied to the London airplane bomb plot has been arrested in Pakistan, Pakistani intelligence and law enforcement officials have told ABC News. Matiur Rehman, one of the most wanted men in Pakistan, is known to have met with the alleged plot ringleader Rashid Rauf, according to the officials.
Rehman’s capture could provide the most important leads in months to the whereabouts of Al Qaeda’s top two leaders, Osama bin Laden and Ayman al Zawahiri. Rehman was believed to be in frequent contact with Zawahiri.
Rehman was taken into custody in the southern Punjab city of Bawalpur, the same town where alleged London plot ringleader Rashid Rauf was arrested last week. ABC News saw a copy of the police report on Rehman, with an attached copy of his photo.
2 U.S. officials confirmed on Tuesday that another significant al Qaeda figure was captured in the weekend raid in Pakistan that nabbed suspected September 11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed.
Mustapha Ahmed al-Hawsawi, a man who officials say sent cash to lead 9/11 hijacker Mohammed Atta through bank accounts in Dubai and the United Arab Emirates, was captured ... during the raid that netted Mohammed, al Qaeda's operations chief.
3 Pakistan has captured Ahmed Khalfan Ghailani, who is sought by the United States as a suspect in the 1998 bombings of the U.S. embassies in Kenya and Tanzania, officials said Friday.
"This is a big success," Interior Minister Faisal Saleh Hayat said in an unusual late-night announcement on Pakistan's Geo television network. "More importantly, we are certain of gathering some latest intelligence on al Qaeda from him," Hayat said in an interview later.
The operation to capture Ghailani, who is on the list of the FBI's 22 most wanted terrorists, was supervised by agents of Pakistan's Inter-Services Intelligence agency and coordinated with CIA and FBI officials, according to an official in Punjab state who was present. The official said 240 Punjab policemen conducted the raid on a rented house in a middle-class neighborhood of Gujrat.
4 Calling it "a critical victory in the war on terror," President Bush today praised the Pakistani government for capturing Abu Faraj al-Libbi, the No. 3 man in Osama bin Laden's al Qaeda terror network.
"Al-Libbi was a top general for bin Laden," Bush said, before beginning a Social Security address to the Latino Coalition Conference here. "He was a major facilitator and a chief planner for the al Qaeda network. His arrest removes a dangerous enemy who was a direct threat to America and for those who love freedom."
Pakistani security sources said yesterday that al-Qaida's "number three" was behind the alleged plot to blow up several transatlantic flights leaving the UK. [...]
Abu Faraj al-Libbi, who after Osama bin Laden and the Egyptian-born Ayman al-Zawahiri, is suspected of being al-Qaida's third in command, has been named by Pakistani security sources as the main planner of the alleged plot, according to Dawn, a daily newspaper. He has also been accused of being in a plot to assassinate Pakistan's president, Pervez Musharraf, and was arrested last year and turned over to the US.
5 A top Al Qaeda leader whose links stretch from Usama bin Laden's training camps to extremist networks in Europe has been captured in Pakistan, a U.S. law enforcement official confirms for the first time.
Pakistani officials also tell The Associated Press that Mustafa Setmarian Nasar, a dual Syrian-Spanish national with a $5 million U.S. bounty on his head, has been flown out of the country to an unspecified location.
Nasar was captured in a November [2005] sting in the southwestern Pakistani city of Quetta that left one person dead, the American official said on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the matter. The official spoke to the AP late last week.

The Blowback from Bush's foolish policy surrounding Pakistan might make the blowback from the CIA's intrusion in Iran seem tame.
