Are you asking for opinions?
My opinion is: How can you know that two planes are going fly into two super structures and how can you know that someone is going to land a plane on the pentagon. I think if the government had definate knowledge of this, they would have done somethingto stop it. I think the people want to believe that the government was smart enough to know that it was going to happen. This is two fold. They want to believe that our government is super human and all seeing and all knowing, that gives them a sense of security. Part two is, it gives the people someone to blame. Our government is all knowing and all seeing and they didn't stop this, so now the people have someone to blame. In the US (and I live here) it's all about pointing the finger, all about blame. No one takes responsibility for themselves that's why there is so much suing going on. What's wrong with just saying "Hey our guys aren't superhuman, they made a mistake, let's just not let it happen again" then we all take responsibility for ourselves and keeping ourselves and our families safe.
The liberals would probably say I'm too simplistic and life is never that easy, but really if each person takes responsibility for themselves, how can there be controversy?
The truth is we've become a nation of wieners. I love my country, but we are whinners and we are criers and we are use to placing blame. It's time we all grow up and stop acting like the government has to take care of all our needs. I watch a news program and they are always talking about the government being to blame because laws aren't strict enough. When will a law ever stop a criminal? Never, that's why they are criminals. If you don't want your kids kidnapped, then watch them. If you don't want your kids to take drugs, then take care of them. I don't know about anyone else, but I sure will never count on a law to protect my children, it's just a bunch of words on a page.......
Geez Mobo, I could go on and on......glad you asked.
Oh and I have always told my children, if a stranger grabs you by the hand, you pull your hand away as hard as you can and scream and throw a fit. We have the police saying "cooperate with a criminal and they will let you go" that is bull. It was only that 4th plane in the 911 attacks that the people on it figured it out. Hey, if we cooperate we're gonna end up like the other 3 planes. Our countrymen have come to believe that if you cooperate with a criminal you'll save your life. I say no way.
Ok...done now, have to go to lunch...but I do have more to say...... :hide:
