September 11 was preemptive.

[problem_child]

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.

True dat. I can't even launch Britney.

Sounds like bull**** 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?

[BeBMan]

I had the slight impression that it wasn´t posted to make sense....

All traceable fact buddy.

Oh and by the way, Senator Palpatine was a neo-conservative.

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.

September 11 was a preemptive strike against september 12.

[Whaleboy]

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

[Skanky Burns]

Didn't the US attempt to invade Canada multiple times? And fail?
