- 99CentFreedom, on 02/29/2008, -17/+184The direct use of force is such a poor solution to any problem, it is generally employed only by small children and large nations. -Don Quixote
- inactive, on 02/29/2008, -29/+120Movie director Aaron Russo (deceased) came out and said this, quoting elitist Nick Rockefeller. He was quickly handed his tin foil hat and dismissed. Luckily, more and more are waking to this hideous con- by the time the rest of the public catches on it will be way too late. Probably already is.
Many neocon diggers will get their panties in a bunch over this! Be prepared for the a barrage of down diggs and immature verbal bashing- which really doesn't mean ***** in the grand scheme- its still funny to watch! - mortinmaxwell, on 02/29/2008, -10/+81Would you like to buy a rock from me that protects you from bears? The entire time I have had it I have never been attacked by a bear.
- jax1492, on 02/29/2008, -8/+56The only thing you can be certain with the American Government is that if they say its a "War on _____" usually its going to last a long time, cost the American people a lot of money and make the problem worse than when they declared their war on it.

Check out the persons involved, they saturate the Bush administration - TheSkunkMonkey, on 02/29/2008, -23/+68Mmmm 5 year old information, aged nicely.
- ByteGuerilla, on 02/29/2008, -4/+42I think he means while reading the article he was thinking "Wait, the British are only just figuring this out?" and then he saw the article was from 2003.
This article was one of the biggest ways in which the bogus nature of the War on Terror was publicised to the U.K. public. Michael Meacher is the man. I knew it was going to be this article when I saw the title of the digg. - daizy82683, on 02/29/2008, -11/+49The idea that questioning our government somehow denegrates the memory of those involved is ridiculous. The families of 9-11 want answers and they were given very few. The talking heads tell you the family doesn't want this but they were the ones who basically forced the administration to investigate. Why do we believe that our government is our best friend and benevolent? The same people who want lower taxes and don't trust the government with their money are some of the same people who trust the government with their civil liberties. We should honor the victims and their families by allowing them to have a voice and get answers. That's how we honor those who died. And some food for thought=
investigation into the lewinski incident=40 million dollars
investigation into 9-11= 11 million dollars - GhostyBoy, on 02/29/2008, -31/+66Check out 9/11: Press for Truth
No speculation, just an incredible documentary about the 9/11 families and their struggle with the White House for an independent investigation. - mydomainoffer, on 02/29/2008, -16/+48i feel sorry for innocent people losing their life because of this Bogus war.
- colonelbuckshot, on 02/29/2008, -1/+32The War on Drugs has not made society any cleaner. It has only taken away our liberty and cost taxpayers billions of dollars.
- nicholai, on 02/29/2008, -47/+78This is a must read, share it.
- Jlaugh, on 02/29/2008, -8/+31He's an Member of Parliament, and former Minister in the British government not some conspiracy nut.
- inactive, on 02/29/2008, -11/+33be careful of all the people flagging this as inaccurate and all the naysayer comments - Centcom pays their people to post on blog sites like this just to create doubt over the truth.
the neocons are everywhere. dont trust the democrats - this all started while clinton was in office and none of our savior dems have blown the whistle or told the truth about the # of civilians killed in iraq. this country sucks and unlike michelle obama, im still not proud of this country because we didnt vote in ron paul.
obama wont remove our troops from saudi arabia. - oldhick, on 02/29/2008, -9/+31Interesting article. Everything in it was old news, specifically the neo-con agenda was never a secret. Those documents were published publicly for anyone to read. The only thing I found interesting were the authors claims that the events of 9/11 were known to 11 countries prior to the attack. Without any evidence, all I can gather from his story was that there was speculation something might happen. He doesn't seem to support his claim with any actual facts.
But great story and everyone should definitely read it. - darkcooger, on 02/29/2008, -1/+21"Do you feel safe driving to a busy super market? Are you constantly worried about bombs, anthrax, etc.?"
My answer to both questions is no, but your argument fails because my answer to both questions was also no before this "war on terrorism" started. And for what it's worth, if I was worried about going to the supermarket, it would be out of fear of the locals, not some angry person from the other side of the planet. - tamckissick, on 02/29/2008, -13/+32I say take a survey of sorts.... give all the possibly involved politicians, oil execs, media cohorts and military leaders a lie detector test, keeping them each sequestered from each other and let's see what we find out. It's about time we get some honest answers out of those people supposedly running this place!
- swrostmore, on 02/29/2008, -6/+25about that Anthrax...last time I checked it was Right Wingers and not Saddam that was mailing it around, and last time I checked they were NEVER CAUGHT.
- daizy82683, on 02/29/2008, -13/+32why are people burying this comment. I guess it's very offensive to the suggest that these families, and there are lots of them, deserve answers.
How unpatriotic - inactive, on 02/29/2008, -3/+21to claim it is not bogus is horribly naive.
- FlagrantDrugUse, on 02/29/2008, -8/+26Great quote, doubly true for large nations led by a person with a child's mind.
- rz8472, on 02/29/2008, -9/+26There are attacks on American soil every day. They're called crimes, and they kill a lot more than terrorists ever will.
Not to mention by focusing solely on terrorism we detract from ordinary law enforcement. - inactive, on 02/29/2008, -17/+33I'm pretty sure obama is a tool too, he is just tricking everyone like the dems tricked everyone in 2006. US policy is that they need the energy, obama isnt going to pull out all our troops from the middle east. ron paul would have.
- darkcooger, on 02/29/2008, -3/+19How long had it been before September 11, 2001, since the previous successful attack on American soil by foreign terrorists? 1993, the first World Trade Center bombing, so eight years. I'm curious what sort of war on terrorism we were engaged in during those eight years, because I sure don't remember any such thing.
- inactive, on 02/29/2008, -4/+20here's a little thing to ponder - why would the oil companies lower the prices when we keep buying no matter what?
- darkcooger, on 02/29/2008, -7/+23Many people in general find this kind of thing to be "conspiracy theory lunacy," but that does not make them neocons. The reality is that people do not want to believe anything as sinister as this whether it's true or not, and that's probably at least partly because it makes them fools for buying into it. If this is true, it's going to be a long time yet before the masses will accept it.

Inexperienced in realities of war
Former US Congressman Lionel Van Deerlin and UK Labour MP and Father of the House of Commons, Tam Dalyell, have criticized PNAC members for promoting policies which vociferously support an idealized version of war, even though only a handful of PNAC members have served in the military or, if they served, seen combat.[38]
In discussing the PNAC report Rebuilding America's Defenses (2000), Neil MacKay, investigations editor for the Scottish Sunday Herald, quotes Tam Dalyell: "'This is garbage from right-wing think-tanks stuffed with chicken-hawks -- men who have never seen the horror of war but are in love with the idea of war. Men like Cheney, who were draft-dodgers in the Vietnam war. These are the thought processes of fantasist Americans who want to control the world.'"[39] - Yez70, on 02/29/2008, -6/+21People don't run this country. Corporations do.
- GliTCH82, on 03/01/2008, -1/+14Ladies and gentlemen, this is about as "truther" or "conspiracy" as our ***** constitution, something that is written, signed and dated and considered the law of the land... these people are not trying to hide their agenda, they are not trying to pull the wool over your eyes, they are stealing your liberty, your freedom, and pushing you towards a global society.. all while smiling and gladly informing you of it. So get informed and take action, or you might just gladly hand over the next 70 years of your lives to a miserable existence of being forced into a certain job, a certain location, or even what kind of family you are allowed to be a part of, if you are allowed to have one.
- skeez86, on 02/29/2008, -5/+18I agree with you, it is aged like a fine wine.
- xadious, on 03/01/2008, -0/+12The Guardian is a broadsheet and is actually quite highly regarded in the UK.
- jamdogg, on 02/29/2008, -8/+20So Kevin Rose and other Digg admin, which part of this article was "innacurate"? That the undeclared war in Iraq IS HAPPENING? That there are some unanswered questions surrounding 9/11? That Bush, Blair et al repeated WMD's and none have shown up?
Which part was innacurate? - CrazedLeper, on 02/29/2008, -6/+18Talk about brazen. They even signed it and posted it on the internet. I guess Cheney's 2 man-sized safes are full of receipts for knews stories (it's a word, look it up in the urban dictionary), congressmen and depleted uranium.
- linuxrocks2007, on 02/29/2008, -5/+17BOGUS WITH A CAPITAL bogus
- inactive, on 02/29/2008, -5/+17Are you delusional? What, are Canada and Mexico going to try and invade us again?
Obviously you're geographically inept, or you would have realized that there are TWO GIGANTIC ***** OCEANS ON BOTH SIDES OF OUR NATION. There's no "war", only a band of rejects who like to cause havoc.
You are a war monger, nothing more. - CrazedLeper, on 02/29/2008, -1/+12Mortin, I'd like to buy your rock....
- swrostmore, on 02/29/2008, -6/+17"Even if this was all about oil, why are prices so high"
LOL you actually think anyone would wage a global war to make oil CHEAPER - Ihatenicks, on 02/29/2008, -10/+21Supposition?
Since when were reports drafted by your own government, supposition?
Did you actually RTFA, or are you just guessing at it's content from the headline and your own particularly blinkered point of view?
Even when it's spelled out for you in black and white, using perfectly legitimate sources, you people are still so stupifyingly dumb as to deny it.. even in the face of the consipacies against you which are being prepetrated RIGHT NOW by you government, you still yell "conspiracy nut" as if they don't actually exist.
Do your brain a favour and OPEN YOUR FUQING EYES! - empirefalling, on 02/29/2008, -1/+11This article was ridiculed in the year it was written, and now accepted as fact throughout the World Body. The US can not continue to deceive, invade and lock up it's citizens in slavery. A revolution is coming to free the US from it's barbaric direction.
- inactive, on 02/29/2008, -1/+11He did commission the Reichstag fire to push through the Enabling Act.
- omegaredIX, on 02/29/2008, -15/+25Exactly. US foreign policy WILL NOT CHANGE AT ALL be it with Obama, Hilary or McCain. We will ALWAYS be in the middle east as long as there is oil coming out of the ground. There is no debating that at all. You can not debate it. It is vital for the economic security of America to be in that region PERIOD. The only person that would have withdrawn would have been paul, and that is why everyone in the right wing community labeled him crazy. Oil is our god.
- Jlaugh, on 02/29/2008, -2/+12Killing a gnat with a shotgun such an effective, use of our resources. Why are we in Iraq? Weren't the terrorists from Saudi Arabia? Why are we in Afghanistan? Why not Pakistan where the Taliban are?
- Dumbledorito, on 02/29/2008, -3/+13In the words of Holly, the ship's computer, "There's an emergency going on. It's still going on."
- NewGTGuy, on 03/01/2008, -2/+12Obama's chief adviser is Zbigniew Brzezinski. His wife is CFR.
I shouldn't have to say much more. If you don't know, you are asleep! - phogasmic, on 02/29/2008, -4/+149/11 was a neocon plot, they used people's patriotism and fear after the attacks to realize they're dreams of America becoming an unchallenged Super power. Thankfully they have largely failed, we are bogged down in Iraq, Russia and the EU are emerging as economic superpowers, the dollar is collapsing, and finally Americans reject the idea of American Imperialism. Eventually all will be right, however I would really like to see the bastards that perpetrated this vast plot to be brought to justice before they die.
- inactive, on 02/29/2008, -20/+30The Guardian, Saturday September 6 2003
lol - inactive, on 02/29/2008, -8/+17The War on Poverty has not made anyone less impoverished. It has only taken away our liberty and cost taxpayers trillions of dollars.
- jvittetoe, on 02/29/2008, -7/+16whoa great quote. i like that.
- nathanbutnet, on 02/29/2008, -2/+11Even though it is old this certainly brings up good points. Simple truth is as it always was: follow the money.
