September 11 was preemptive. Got spare money?

Apparently OBL/Al'Qaeda planned 9/11 as a premptive strike against the US because it was known that the Pentagon already planned to invade Afganistan to depose the Taliban in the interests of a California oil company.

Furthermore the Patriot Act (that further deathblow to the American Republic) had been drafted before that terrible date (9/11) to expand the powers of the Security State that took the Republics place.

Now shout me down.

Sounds like bullshit to me as it doesn't even makes sense. In what way would the attack on the 11 sep in any way stop the US from invading Afghanistan?

Tired of ads?

Given that plans for crashing airliners into US planes were being developed as early as 1994, I must reject your former argument.

Everything else is true, but heck, the U.S. has plans for invading Canada, Great Britain, and Australia. The fact that plans exist does not mean that they will be implimented.

Perhaps the message being 'Screw with us and you'll find the price is too high'? How should I know what dark thoughts slithers through the minds of people prepared to kill thousands of civilians. Perhaps you should ask somebody like Rumsfield or Bush....

On a side note, wouldn't it be sweet to see these plans? I'd love to see how many seconds the DoD estimates it would take to subdue Canada.

Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

It was a strike to provoke the USA to a contentious war in one or more Muslim nations, to incite hatred of the USA to swell the ranks of al Qaeda et al. Round one to OBL methinks

and an invasion now would ultimately fail. In military terms, the US would "win" in a day or so but then the PR battle begins. I can see Bush now " We had to strike as they threatened us with their free health care and cheap prescription Drugs. This was an attack on the American way of life" etc etc

I'd feel much better if we invaded so we could give Canadian cancer patients better weed.

Since it was such a bad troll... I guess the responses were to be totally expected.

So problem child... don't even think of trying this lame troll again... and frankly, any more lame trolls out of you and you're toast.
