9/11

My 9/11 Theory

Islamic fundamentalism has nothing to do with terrorism. Wife beating, public execution, ignorance yes; Terrorism no! The taliban is a religious group but they are not terrorists. Al Qaeda is a drug cartel nothing more. They were simply continuing the Mena, Arkansas smuggling work of the CIA but based in Florida with huffman aviation as a cover. It seems likely that Mossad agents, believing that they were participating in a drill or possibly responding to what they believed was a real hijacking, seized control of the planes and handed over their flight controls to an on the ground cadre of mossad technicians believing that the planes would be landed safely by remote control. Instead the crew on the ground flew them into targets. Operation Vigilant Guardian would have provided cover and since israel has penetrated every level of government they could have arranged for all fighter jets to be out of reach. It could have taken less than ten mossad thugs (plus the traitor dick cheney) who knew what was going on to pull this off. Flight 77 probably made it's loop while the ground crew was deciding on a target after realizing that flight 93 was about to be shot down by American fighters.

Quote from The Frank Factor

CHRIS HEDGES: The banks and Wall Street, which have erected the corporate state to serve their interests at our expense, caused the financial crisis. The bankers and their lobbyists crafted tax havens that account for up to $1 trillion in tax revenue lost every decade. They rewrote tax laws so the nation's most profitable corporations, including Bank of America, could avoid paying any federal taxes. They engaged in massive fraud and deception that wiped out an estimated $40 trillion in global wealth. The banks are the ones that should be made to pay for the financial collapse.

The big banks and corporations are parasites. They greedily devour the entrails of the nation in a quest for profit, thrusting us all into serfdom and polluting and poisoning the ecosystem that sustains the human species. They have gobbled up more than a trillion dollars from the Department of Treasury and the Federal Reserve and created tiny enclaves of wealth and privilege where corporate managers replicate the decadence of the Forbidden City and Versailles. Those outside the gates, however, struggle to find work and watch helplessly as food and commodity prices rocket upward...And no one in the Congress, the Obama White House, the courts or the press, all beholden to corporate money, will step in to stop or denounce the assault on families. Our ruling elite, including Barack Obama, are courtiers, shameless hedonists of power, who kneel before Wall Street and daily sell us out. The top corporate plutocrats are pulling down $900,000 an hour while one in four children depends on food stamps to eat.

*You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity". 

You can, however, legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of wretched excess. The wealthy have been legislating us out of prosperity since reagan was elected.

No, you can't. Listen to yourself. You really think you can systematically redistribute wealth as a policy and expect continued productivity from the "wealthy"?

I think that the idea that the wealthy are the source of productivity is a myth. I think you have no problem with redistribution of wealth as long as it happens upwards instead of downward, which is, frankly, disgusting.

*What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving.

We have been working our asses off so corporate welfare cheats like helliburton can receive while doing as little as possible to earn.

*The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else.

See may last response. The politicians take out loans with our future earnings as collateral. You and I and many generations to come will pay back the principle and interest of the loans that our politicians took out to buy weapons and support services to fight wars on behalf of compound interest and natural resources.

*When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friend, is the beginning of the end of any nation.

1% control most of the wealth. They acquired it through very subtle methods of thievery that you idiots do not recognize; War for profit, tort reform (lawsuit abuse is not at crisis levels. Though common in retail it is virtually non-existent in manufacturing, refining and natural resource extraction.), union busting, subsidies for large companies that don't need them. There are probably millions of other ways. I will add them as they come to mind or are discovered.


*You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it.

Multiplication is not the objective. You republicans think that to "work" something has to turn a profit. FEMA, for example, works very well in providing assistance to those who have been victims of disasters but it doesn't turn a profit. It just redistributes wealth to those in need. A noble cause in my opinion. If you disagree then you go to hell.
