The political Machine rolls on by novocaine 2002-06-11 07:27:43
Does it seem funny to anyone else that everytime Bush's popularity threatens to drop another so called terrorist is found.
Yesterdays announcement about the dirty nuclear weapons is so funny, while the US government explain what they see as a "great threat," independant experts can the idea on the basis that even the US army haven't been able to work out how to make a dirty nuclear bomb that can be transported. So how can one low rate terrorist manage it?

Its all lies, there still hasn't been any proof about Bin Laden's involement in Sept 11th. I'd like to know how the US claim to know it was him withing 3 hours of it happening, and how they explain the 747 hitting the pentagon going through a hole only a couple metres wide, dragging all the wreckage with it and burning hot enough to evaporate metal? It just seems very odd that everytime things seem to be returning to normal and Bush's home policy may come under closer scrutiny a terrorist event happens and they crank up the patriotism machine again.

To those of you who find this topic in bad taste:
I have sympathy for the victims of Terrorism, but I also realise that poor foreign policy on behalf of many years of US governments has done little to help the situation and much to inflame it.
