Of course he COULD have wanted to use Al Quaeda. But then, would AQ want to blow their covers? Since Afghanistan, the USA don't really seem to LOOK for AQ. This can have several reasons:
1- is it a cover-up/smokescreen-word invented by (***white house - pentagon - know others***) ... it wouldn't make sense to really investigate, because that could reveal the truth about lying. Not that lying presidents are often punished, unless it's about sex.
2- they found them (maybe back in afganistan) but shot them (accidentally, of course) and they don't want the world to find out ... now they release fake AQ messages, who cannot harm anyone but are good smokescreens
3- there really IS something like Al Qaeda, but they cannot find them ... and by telling they are searching, or showing evidence that the search is going on, they could be embarrassed: "that big powerful investigation doesn't find ANYthing, they're just big spenders of money needed elsewhere"
I don't like the first and second one, so for now i "hope" they're just keeping a low profile. Bu us politics doesn't keep low profiles on everything |
