9-11
For mothers and fathers lost.
For children lost.
For brothers and sisters lost.
For those that will never forget the terrible feeling that sank in that evening as they waited and prayed to get word from loved ones that were in New York on that day.

And to all of those heros that gave their lives trying to help, and to the many that came and helped. Heros all.

Re: 9-11
Do you remember 1987.......
Thought you
Might be interested in this forgotten bit of
Information..........
It was 1987!
At a lecture the other day they were playing an old news video of Lt. Col.. Oliver North testifying at the Iran-Contra hearings during the Reagan Administration.
There was Ollie in front of God and country getting the third degree, but what he said was stunning!
He was being drilled by a senator; 'Did you not recently spend close to $60,000 for a home security system?'
Ollie replied, 'Yes, I did, Sir.'
The senator continued, trying to get a laugh out of the audience, 'Isn't that just a little excessive?'
'No, sir,' continued Ollie.
'No? And why not?' the senator asked.
'Because the lives of my family and I were threatened, sir.'
'Threatened? By whom?' the senator questioned.
'By a terrorist, sir' Ollie answered.
'Terrorist? What terrorist could possibly scare you that much?'
'His name is Osama bin Laden, sir' Ollie replied.
At this point the senator tried to repeat the name, but couldn't pronounce it, which most people back then probably couldn't.... A couple of people laughed at the attempt. Then the senator continued. Why are you so afraid of this man?' the senator asked.
'Because, sir, he is the most evil person alive that I know of', Ollie answered.
'And what do you recommend we do about him?' asked the senator.
'Well, sir, if it was up to me, I would recommend that an assassin team be formed to eliminate him and his men from the face of the earth.'
The senator disagreed with this approach, and that was all that was shown of the clip.
;
By the way, that senator was Al Gore!
Also:
Terrorist pilot Mohammad Atta blew up a bus in Israelin 1986. The Israelis captured, tried and imprisoned him. As part of the Oslo agreement with the Palestini and in 1993, Israel had to agree to release so-called 'political prisoners.'
However, the Israelis would not release any with blood on their hands, The American President at the time, Bill Clinton,
And his Secretary of State, Warren Christopher, 'insisted' that all prisoners be released.
Thus Mohammad Atta was freed and eventually thanked us by flying an airplane into Tower One of the World Trade
Center ... This was reported by many of the American TV networks at the time that the terrorists were first identified.
It was censored in the US from all later reports.
If you agree that the American public should be made aware of this fact, pass this on.
Do Not Break - it is 6 years strong
This has not been broken since 9/11/01, please
Keep it going...
This has been kept alive and moving since 9/11. In memory of
All those who perished this morning; the passengers and the pilots on the
United Air and AA flights, the workers in the World Trade Center and the
Pentagon, and all the innocent bystanders. Our prayers go out to the friends and
Families of the deceased.

Not to be disrespectful to the memory of 9/11, but both of those are false....

The second of those is sometimes attributed to Reagan instead of Clinton, depending on who is circulating the email.

Still, they knew how dangerous Bin Ladin was for a long time before Sept 11. They should have done something about him. But we're talking about a government that can't find a 6ft arab on dialisiss, but can find one little sprout in the 100 acares (sp?) of woods behind my house.

Lol. Yeah, I'm sure there have been many successive governments that knew about him, but like you said - they're all incompetent unless they're "protecting" you from yourself.

They need him alive and out reeking havok. If the terroists were under control, the threat would be gone and they'd have to find something else to explain where all that money is going to. jmo

Re: 9-11
yup, i agree. there are so many myths out there it's almost reduces the actual events that took place, if we even know the actual events, tbh. in other words, the ones who sensationalize 9-11 by telling tales, really don't need to tell tales. on it own, it stands horrific.Kazza wrote:Not to be disrespectful to the memory of 9/11, but both of those are false....
