nijis Posted September 11, 2001 Share Posted September 11, 2001 Pawbroon -- I know you weren't trying to point the finger at anyone, just describe a scenario. Again, sorry to get PC on you. It's just that a lot of folks with the wrong last names got their teeth kicked in after the first WTC and Oklahoma, and it would be a shame if that repeated.

MrSpkr Posted September 11, 2001 Share Posted September 11, 2001 <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by Panzerman: HE was. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE> We also know where this SOB is -- Afghanistan. I suspect if Bin Laden is behind this, we will be at war with Afghanistan (of all places) because we WILL insist on going in after him, and the official position of the Taliban government has been to shelter him. I doubt this is an American terrorist group for a couple of reasons. First, most American groups are so infiltrated by the FBI that they would be unable to coordinate such a massive attack. Second, culturally, I think it would be much more difficult to find three Americans willing to sacrifice their lives for a political objective. I think it would be much easier to find three people to do this for 'religious' reasons. Word just in - the flight in Western PA was a United Airlines flight.

Ex Bellator Posted September 11, 2001 Share Posted September 11, 2001 The City in London is being evacuated as a precaution. Here in the UK I work for an American company who had two offices in the WTC and we are all too shocked for words. Of course all our thoughts are with America.

MrSpkr Posted September 11, 2001 Share Posted September 11, 2001 U.S. Representative Joe Barton (R, Texas), has just given an interview in which he indicates that he considers this a direct military attack on the United States -- he has indicated that he is now willing to fully support whatever means are necessary to bring the perps to justice, including any military means necessary.

Dweezil44 Posted September 11, 2001 Share Posted September 11, 2001 An interesting note -- there is now a claim that the plane that crashed in Western PA was headed for Camp David. Twenty years ago today the Camp David Peace accords were taking place. Pres. Bush's plane is being kept in the air at this time. There were initial reports that F-16s were chasing a civilian airliner out to sea -- anyword on this? There are currently two more planes unaccounted for.
