Now HERE'S Some Stinky Shit: Remember All Those Saudis Flying Home Post-9/11?

Matt Renner, one of the indefatigable squad of real reporters working at/for TruthOut.Org, sez:

"Newly released documents reveal that the FBI suspected that a plane hired to transport members of the bin Laden family from the United States back to Saudi Arabia might have been chartered by Osama bin Laden himself. These new documents raise new questions about the FBI investigation into the 9/11 attacks."

TO itself appended the following note:
Editor's Comment: Yesterday, CNN's Wolf Blitzer asserted the FBI documents released to Judicial Watch were generating conspiracy theories; an FBI spokesman appearing on the show agreed. Our editors have reviewed the documents carefully and feel that they are newsworthy. It's also worth noting that while the FBI now maintains that there is "nothing new and nothing significant in these documents," the FBI fought a protracted legal battle with Judicial Watch to keep them from bringing the documents to public view.

No one could've imagined that Cheney & Friends would've happily looked the other way allowing terrorists to kill 3,000 people for the sake of advancing a political/financial agenda. Why, that's just "crazy talk"!

the pnac had said since the late '90s they needed a 'pearl harbor' event to launch their global conquest plans.
nothing so far has happened to dissuade them from their designs.
things are going quite well, actually.

when ceasar crossed the rubicon, he did so with the clear and uncluttered knowledge that what he was doing would NEVER be undone.
these fuckers were, in fact, ceasarian in their understandings of what they had unleashed.

none of it will EVER be undone.
