The way the author rants and raves naturally discredits him within the first few paragraphs,,, but he does touch upon a few facts that do not stand up to scrutiny. Most people outside the US are convinced that the Bush administration is not beyond outright lying.
Take just one example. Starting from scratch, while the entire administration is still trying to come to grips with what hit us all, while the Prez is still in hiding, within 72 hours of the incident, how the hell did they come up with the 19 names??? That is simply incredible. What is more incredible is that Americans buy this ... and if it is possible to get more unreal, they are then led into a war in Afghanistan and another in Iraq, while no one asks why the marines are not landing in Saudi where all but one of the hijackers came from ??
or take another, admittedly less important (in the larger scheme of things) story... right after the event, we were told there had been suspicious patterns of trade in the stocks of airlines (and other companies that were heavily impacted by the event), and that the SEC was investigating that. so, what happened? that story just died and no one thinks to ask theinconvenient questions...? or are we supposed to believe that whoever shorted hundreds of thousands of airline stocks just had a 'lucky hunch' that the stocks were going to tank??
we should all quit watching Fox news and be asking some questions of our governments
