11 September - 4 years on

[chris]

One or two posters have mentioned the attacks on the World Trade Center and the war in Iraq in the same post as though there is a direct link. Why?

There is a topical link and the war started after Sept 11.......one for Mr Bush to answer I reckon although they are not totally unrelated....anyway this is why this forum is called a 'Thread'...weavings about a bit...

Because the US government has linked the two.

IMHO the US is turning into a fascist kingdom under Bush.

Most Americans I've met have been great. But I don't support their government.

Then again, I don't support ours either :meh:

although they are not totally unrelated

I can think of a common religious link, anything else?

I'm not particularly concerned by any of the Middle Eastern countries, China, North Korea etc, but the US, led by Bush......hmmmm.

Because George Dubya says so and it sounds better than "we're attacking Iraq to get their oil".

again Lou...


BULLSHIT..


this war has nothing to do with oil. the reason that Sept 11 and Iraq are linked is that 9/11 was the key that unlocked the lion's cage.. someone lit the fuse and Iraq was unfinished business.. whatever the reason, it had to happen..if not now, then in our kids time..after Hussein was stronger and more dug in.


and if you don't believe that sympathisers are in NZ .. just look around



i may just be paranoid but thats why im still alive to this day. (i prefer ' hightened state of alert')

Watch out sarge the paranoids are after you.

PS Why was the original Iraq constitution amended to reduce oil royalties payable to Iraq?
No it's not about oil.

England has not suffered

WHAT? I guess that ideologically motivated groups running around with backpacks of explosives determined to cause mass murder on public transport systems, means diddly-squat to you!

remember terriorists are like mercenaries.

What are you smoking? Completely the opposite. Mercenarys play ball for money and/or personal gain (you should be used to it in our society - simply look at any professional sportsperson who signs to a team for a price. It's the same thing) whereas terrorists follow an ideological path. One cannot simply try to classify these two seperate groups as one.

( Friday night at the Viaduct Harbor when there is a bigassed cruise ship docked... right by the water taxi stand.. BOOOOOM!!.. another 30 seconds later under the big black boat as everyone runs away..another 45 seconds after the first at the other end..car bomb in the big parking structure 10 minutes after the initial blast as everyone is trying to get out...500 dead.. 3000 wounded with a loss of 4 terrorists..pretty good return on investment..)

Interesting how quickly kiwis have forgotten the Rainbow Warrior incident...

It's a bit different when you are standing on a bombed and partially sunken ship in your own harbour. Going through the vessel in dry dock, after raising, was rather interesting on the froggies "intentions" for this job...
(as I've said on other threads - france would make the ideal testing ground for nukes...)

Folks, terrorism isn't something that happens overseas. The ozzies have realised this, we need to do the same.

which bit of poetry are you referring to?

and the place would be much safer if you got rid of the Asian Triads, the raghead refuges and the NZ Police department


seems to me that all the Seth Africkans hang out together .. the Poms , the Asians, the indians, the rags etc.. seems if they come to NZ.. they should try and blend in a bit better and adopt the customs of NZ as opposed to having thier own little communities

i could be wrong though


i dont hang out with too many "Seppo's" if any.. but ive been other places in the word, not just out to the shed like a few people on here ( i hear banjo's sometimes when i log in)
