Hmmm...if Al-Jazeerais airing previous Bin Laden messages, why the hell aren't we going after THEM?</div>

<div style='font: 11pt "EngraversGothic BT", "Copperplate Gothic Light"; text-align: left; '>Hmmm...based in Qatar. Hey, THAT'S WHERE BIN LADEN LIVES!</div>

<div style='font: 10pt Arial; text-align: left; '>...that will send Bush to war. Then the whole "Saddam is hiding weapons of mass destruction" title changes to "Saddam is incahoots with Bin Laden I was right from the start" and we go to war anyway.</div>

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>Saddam's main goal is for a more moderninzed Iraq that is the most powerful Islamic country in the world, economically and militarilly. Saddam wants Sunni to be in charge of the Islam world.

Osama's goal is to unite the Arab world and awaken an Arab Empire like which has happened in the past. Osama wants a united Islamic Empire.

Their factions do have common enemies though, in the past it was the communists and the Brits, and more recently the Americans. The middle Eastern politics aren't nearly as simple and one dimensional as this Colin Powel will attempt to have us all believe.

Funny thing though, there was a comdey sketch posted on this site a while back by Kupek I believe, take a look at it, its more accurate than anything you'll hear on the news.

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>I'm not sure if that site still works though. It's not right now at least.</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>Yeah, let's go after a COMPLETELY INDEPENDENT NEWS STATION. GOOD IDEA.</div>

<div style='font: 11pt "EngraversGothic BT", "Copperplate Gothic Light"; text-align: left; '>Independent, my ass! They happen to get the Bin Laden tape every single time. I'm sure Bin Laden himself is walking into the office and handing the tape personally.</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>Gee, I'm REALLY FUCKING SURPRISED that Al Queda isn't mailing tapes to an American news station...use your goddamn head.</div>

<div style='font: 11pt "EngraversGothic BT", "Copperplate Gothic Light"; text-align: left; '>Actually, Bush is mostly ignoring Bin Laden because he can't find him, but mostly because he still has to finish daddy's little war before the election.</div>

<div style='font: 11pt "EngraversGothic BT", "Copperplate Gothic Light"; text-align: left; '>Of course not, but why ship off the tapes to a faraway land when the news center around the corner works just as well?</div>

<div style='font: 11pt "EngraversGothic BT", "Copperplate Gothic Light"; text-align: left; '>I get my news from Google News. Love the diversity of the news sites.</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>Yeah, because the Middle East is really so "faraway" from Europe...</div>

<div style='font: 11pt "Fine Hand"; text-align: left; '>Ya know...when Bin Laden was in Sudan and was asked to leave on a plane to Afghanistan, Clinton COULD have had the plane surrounded when it refueled on the way to Afghanistan. BUT....well.....too late.</div>

<div style='font: 14pt "Sans Serif"; text-align: justify; padding: 0% 15% 0% 15%; '>Well, if you live in the Middle East, the US would be the faraway land, not Qatar.</div>

<div style='font: 14pt "Sans Serif"; text-align: justify; padding: 0% 15% 0% 15%; '>"Burn it all!" - leprechun from the Simpsons.</div>

<div style='font: 10pt verdana; text-align: left; padding: 0% 10% 0% 10%; '>Um, that is the news center around the corner.</div>

<div style='font: 11pt "Fine Hand"; text-align: left; '>You know what? ~YOU'RE~ the reason why Seeker makes fun of Americans! Ugh....</div>

<div style='font: 11pt Dominion; text-align: left; '>I'm going to have to go ahead and...agree with G-man here: I'd like to have Sine deported from the US on the grounds of the theory of intellectual osmosis</div>

<div style='font: 11pt "Fine Hand"; text-align: left; '>Heh.....send him to Canada. ~IF~ he passes the IQ test. =8^P</div>

<div style='font: 11pt "EngraversGothic BT", "Copperplate Gothic Light"; text-align: left; '>And if Reagan hadn't been so anti-red about Russia, the CIA wouldn't have trained him, and we would have stop it before it started. Hindsight is 20/20.</div>

<div style='font: 11pt "Fine Hand"; text-align: left; '>Yeah...why start there, Sine? Why not WW2? You would have preferred Nazi rule, I'm sure.</div>

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>Nah, he has nothing to do with it. Funny you and Tessian should put the blame on Sine since it's the two of you who are the reasons for it.</div>

<div style='font: 10pt verdana; text-align: left; padding: 0% 10% 0% 10%; '>How does that relate?</div>

<div style='font: 11pt "Fine Hand"; text-align: left; '>That we shouldn't help contries or people in need - who later on will turn on us. Like USSR and Bin Laden's freedom fighters in Afghanistan.</div>

<div style='font: 11pt "Fine Hand"; text-align: left; '>You seem to like making fun of Americans who you think you're smarter than. Then again, you have this inferiority complex against Americans. It's okay. We rule.</div>

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>I only think you're stupid and ignorant because of stupid and baseless comments like the one you just made.</div>

<div style='font: 10pt verdana; text-align: left; padding: 0% 10% 0% 10%; '>Conclusion jumps... I think Sine's 20/20 comment still applies. History has examples both for and against "interfering," which makes support-by-example spurious.</div>

<div style='font: 11pt "Fine Hand"; text-align: left; '>Of course it does. But you all keep tooting "Oh it's all America's fault! If we didn't do this and that...blah blah blah." But none of you put much blame on the other parties. Hmph!</div>

<div style='font: 11pt "Fine Hand"; text-align: left; '>Oh my Lord. Look who's talking. You ever wonder why no one here respects you? You're an ass hole. That's why.</div>

<div style='font: 10pt verdana; text-align: left; padding: 0% 10% 0% 10%; '>Or, rather, you think that's what we say. The presence of our criticism for one side does not imply that we absolve the other.</div>

<div style='font: 11pt "Fine Hand"; text-align: left; '>I've considered that. But lemme hear it once in a while. =8^) I swear....I've never heard a peep from you guys about Arafat, intefadeh, Bin Laden, Saddam Hussein and Phil Donahue. =8^)</div>

<div style='font: 10pt verdana; text-align: left; padding: 0% 10% 0% 10%; '>As I've explained before, that's common ground.</div>

<div style='font: 11pt ; text-align: left; '>I don't see why half of your argue with Seeker so seriously. He knows he's an asshole, he and I have discussed it, there's no point in getting upset. :)</div>

<div style='font: 11pt "Fine Hand"; text-align: left; '>Point taken. =8^)</div>

<div style='font: 11pt "Fine Hand"; text-align: left; '>You won't get the last word - this time! =8^)</div>

<div style='font: 10pt verdana; text-align: left; padding: 0% 10% 0% 10%; '>A troll, more accurately.</div>

<div style='font: 10pt verdana; text-align: left; padding: 0% 10% 0% 10%; '>This could get ugly.</div>

<div style='font: 11pt "Fine Hand"; text-align: left; '>Dammit Kupkake. *looks at watch* I gotta wake up in 5 hours.</div>

<div style='font: 11pt ; text-align: left; '>Nonono, Asshole, that was the word he used and I'm sticking to it. :)</div>

<div style='font: 10pt verdana; text-align: left; padding: 0% 10% 0% 10%; '>Shit, I don't get up until 9 tomorrow. We can just continue it then.</div>

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>G-man, you can say shit, but you can't take shit, you're nothing but a whiney bitch.</div>

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>A Troll is someone who only posts ignorant abrasive crap for the sole purpose of getting a reaction. No one here at the Shrine is even close to being a troll. Of course we have spammers, we have you Kupek.</div>

<div style='font: 11pt "Fine Hand"; text-align: left; '>I ~WILL~ win this one.</div>

<div style='font: 10pt verdana; text-align: left; padding: 0% 10% 0% 10%; '>I'm a spammer? Right. I just get the impression that you're more interested in illiciting reactions from people than actually communicating. That's a troll.</div>

<div style='font: 10pt verdana; text-align: left; padding: 0% 10% 0% 10%; '>You'll what now?</div>

<div style='font: 11pt "Fine Hand"; text-align: left; '>BLAST YOUR ALARM CLOCK! Never send a leprechaun to do a sabotage job! But gremlins are sooo expensive these days!</div>

<div style='font: 11pt "Fine Hand"; text-align: left; '>You're the one always bitching like a French whore. Always bitching about everything. Do you come from a female dominated family? Did your father leave you?</div>

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>Yes you're a spammer, you go into Ruminations posts and reply baseless "info" which you obviously did not put any thought or research into. It just serves as spam, sorry, but it's the truth.</div>

<div style='font: 10pt verdana; text-align: left; padding: 0% 10% 0% 10%; '>I have rather the same opinion on your comments.</div>
