I didn't watch any of it.
But, I remember the day of 9/11.
At the time, I assumed it was actually the work of terrorists.
And, I was not very upset.
Approximately 3000 people were killed.
How often do Americans shrug and continue their activities, when many more thousands on, "the other side of the world", are killed in earthquakes and tsunamis?
My initial thought was, to use an American expression, "What goes around, comes around.".
Little did I know that Bush & Company and the corporate media, would immediately begin working night and day to agitate the populace into a frenzy of terror and fury.
Imagine the numbers you would get, if you divided the total people killed in the "War on Terror" since 9/11, by 3000, or you divided the total money spent on the "War on Terror" since 9/11, by 3000.
In my opinion, the "puppeteers" accomplished exactly what they wanted - when you scare people enough, they will give you all their money, and surrender to you all their rights.
Tell me, how can the defense industry maintain its profit margin, if there is not always an enemy who will stop at nothing to kill every American?
And, I'll say it again (I feel that I can never say it too many times.), to me, absolutely, one of the poorest excuses for a human being who I am aware of, is, Bush Junior. I would not denigrate any other Earth species, by comparing him to it.
