The Empire 753

'No one except a dumb thief'


Osama bin Laden told Americans in a videotape send to Al Jazeera en shown on television on the first of November 2004

'plays with the security of others and then makes himself believe he will be secure. Whereas thinking people, when disaster strikes, make it their priority to look for its causes, in order to prevent it happening again. But I am amazed at you. Even though we are in the fourth year after the events of September 11th, Bush is still engaged in distortion, deception, and hiding from you the real causes. And thus, the reasons are still there for a repeat of what occured.'

In the meantime another seven years of warfare has passed and the USA is loosing financially, morally, politically and militarily. Obama spends more on war and weapons and so called intelligence than Bush did. And nobody of Obama's administration foresaw the revolt in Egypt and the Arab world. At least they didn't have a plan what to do next. Is the USA going to make its final mistake by going on with supporting corrupt and repressive regimes? Let's see.
