With all due respect and with no love lost for the CIA, the three quoted 
paragraphs below are totally ridiculous and unhelpful.

On the other hand, I read with appreciation a letter printed in the Boston 
Globe saying simply this: "The United States has long bombed, invaded, and 
subverted the governments of other countries. Now someone has done it to 
us. I'm not happy about this, but neither am I surprised."

Bush caused US devastation

2001-09-12 Thread Karl Carlile

It is clear that there is a strong link between the kami kazi acts in the US and
the Middle East. It is clear that the Palestianians have been treated like pigs
by US imperialism and are now acting like pigs. The source of the attack on the
US buildings is the Bush administration. Bush armed and supported Israel and
gave the green light to Israel in relation to the Palestinian question --the
freedom to provoke, randomly attack and brutally oppress the Palestinian people.
The result is the destruction by Arabs of the   Word Trade Centre premises and
severe damage to the Pentagon. This, in a sense, is an expression of the failure
and collapse of Bush foreign policy. It constitutes a defeat of their foreign
policy.

Now the Washington administration is hoping to exploit the events in such a way
as to have a pretext for  more aggressive imperialist policies --such as further
occupations of countries that are of strategic significance.

The other possibility is that it was known by the CIA that the attacks were to
take place. The attacks were deliberately allowed to happen because the
devatation, it was thought, would so dramatically change the situation as to
provide a prectext for a more aggressive foreign policy involving, as I have
said, occupation of certain countries of strategic importance for one reason or
another. Indeed the CIA may have had plants in these organisations that
insituted these plans. They may have provided much of the resources necessary to
undertake the operation. Afterall it is extraordinary how such a devastating
operation was undetected. How was were hijaced planes able to get into this
airspace without raising any alarm.

Strange too the way the media almost right across the board suggested Bin Laden
was behind the operation. Surely if they have this kind of information they must
also then been able to preempt it.

Big powers are known to inflict damage or facilitate the infliction of damage on
their own population to get a pretext to take certain actions against an enemy
country.

Either way the Bush administration is the source of the problem.
