"For the first time, a video has been released showing al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden meeting with suspected terrorist Ramzi Binalshibh, purportedly as they prepare for the September 11, 2001 attacks, according to Al-Jazeera, which aired the tape Thursday. "
"CNN was unable to independently verify whether the video, made by al Qaeda's production company, Al Sahab, was made in 2001. But two of the men seen on it -- Hamza Alghamdi and Wail Alshehri -- were hijackers who died in the suicide missions.
Alghamdi was aboard United Airlines Flight 175, which hit the South Tower of the World Trade Center; Alshehri was aboard American Airlines Flight 11, which crashed into the North Tower."

::)....take a look at your statement an tell me why people cannot figure out why they say Liberals are unpatriotic??
Hello,
Osama bin Laden was a CIA asset in the 80s. This is part of public record. We gave money to he and his freedom fighters in Afghanistan's war against the USSR. His code name was Tim Osman, and we sent money and weapons to him. We also traded in intel with him - he knew that region and the US knew Russia. Ultimately, Osama and his rebels repelled the Russians and won.
Mr Intenseone, there is nothing unpatriotic about saying bin Laden was a CIA asset - we had a common goal then (stop the growth of the Russian empire).
I would ask that you become more of a student of history before making statements like you have. You'll recall that George Bush Sr. was the head of the CIA until 1979 when he ran for VP. He admittedly retained very close ties with the CIA during 80-88 as VP then as POTUS from 88 to 92. Upon leaving the White House in 1992, Bush Sr. went into business with the Saudi family, exploiting the relationship he had cultivated with them over the years. They remain strong partners to this day in oil operations. This is public record, again.
Speaking the facts does not make you liberal, or unpatriotic. Once USSR fell and bin Laden's relationship with the Saudis soured (although his truce stood until 2003), the US officially stopped funding bin Laden's adventures. Officially.
(http://www.imagedonkey.com/out.php?i=14597_lol.gif) | You are completely wrong. The CIA never funded the Arab fighters in Afghanistan, and they never funded bin Laden. That's just another myth promoted by the tin-foil hat crowd. There is not one shred of evidence that bin Laden ever received a single penny from the CIA. |
LINK TO THE VIDEOS:You speak arabic?... Ah, most of us don't.... I don't understand that crap, how the hell does any of that own conspiracy theorists? Translate Mr. Arab speaker... LOL...

Conspiracy theorists = OWNED!
BrianX, please tell us all what caused this magic hole at the pentagon. Please tell us why WTC7 fell in such a manner. You can't. You post a link and mock the 911 skeptics. But the fact is, their findings are based in reality, and yours is based upon a very hurried and politically motivated 911 Investigation.
1. The Pentagon damage is entirely consistent with the impact of a plane. Hundreds of people saw a large plane hit the Pentagon. This was never really a debatable point. Even a lot of conspiracy theorists believe the Pentagon was hit by a plane.
2. WTC7 suffered massive damage from the collapse of WTC1. This is documented at http://www.debunking911.com/pull.htm (http://www.debunking911.com/pull.htm) and http://www.debunking911.com/pull.htm (http://www.debunking911.com/pull.htm). The first website contains an eyewitness account from the photographer who took those photos.
