    funny that you ask cause I just answered that question for some friends of mine in the military, sent my message off to Iraq just a moment ago


    What are people here saying, I beieve people here are some of the most propagandized people on the planet and that as such there opinions are highly in question. Most do not even know there own history nor the history of this country. What people here are saying is a crock, and an embarrassment to education and common sense. Bin-laden denied having anything to do with 9/11 and was pretty obviously a scapegoat. An excuse to rally around. I say the whole thing is a lie. What the truth might be I'm not sure, but I dam sure don't believe what the propaganda machine is spewing.

    Something tells me I'll be loosing a few points over that last but the reality is, I'm not buying it, I say it was all a big fat lie from the get go.

    your opinion is one i have heard a couple of times before. i don't know what's true and what isn't. i only know what i see on tv so they can tell me anything and i wouldn't know any different which is the same for most people. what did suprise me was the thousands of people celebrating bin ladens death on the news. at the end of the day he was only one man. our stupid prime minister gave a speech saying that all australians who have been affected by terrorism should feel that justice has been served. the only terrorist attack australians have been targeted in were the bali bombings which had nothing to do with al queda .

    be careful what you wish for is all I can say to this broad:(

    On a different tack, the USA has a lot of **** coming their way via al-Qaeda after the good riddance of Osama Bin Laden in Pakistan.
    I for one would not even considering visiting the USA soon or ever. The airplanes and airports would not be safe to and from uncle Sam, public places, buildings, schools hospitals will be prime targets in the states for the al-Qaeda loonies out to revenge their ******** leader bin laden's death at the hands of USA task force.

    Knowingly that the 911 is a sore issue with yanks, lets be frank - these idiots pulled it off once and now they have even more reason to do it again and perhaps more times to come....
    They will not hit the military but mark my words today, these cowards will go for soft targets that will hurt most and these paranoid mad dog Islam militants are capable of everything as proven in the past.

    The sad thing of getting rid of that Osama Bin Laden pig is the fact that innocent countries will also be targets because of the USA's actions...:mad:

    But lets rejoice, according to Wikipedia the Bin Laden pig was buried at sea because it was assumed that no country would want the body of the worlds worst terrorist on their soil. Do any believe he was buried at sea under Islamic beliefs/ways?? No, I believe he was just dumped into the big blue to join the guys in the grey suits. That is the biggest insult he can have for not having a decent and proper burial under Islam law and he I believe, forfeited all that virgins waiting for him wherever they are:D:D

    He was more likely stuffed and stood in a corner somewhere but thats not the real issue. The real issue is the creation of an enemy, the us against them, gang mentality, the unifying force under any leadership even the most corrupt by virtue of an assumed greater enemy. Or as a great Warrior once said, "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" ergo if I'm a corrupt bunch of shysters in gubment I would do well to either have or create a common enemy.

    I say it was all one big fat lie and we are no closer to the truth now than we were yesterday.

    Revolution now
    throw the bums out every last one of them
    I'd bet any day that the people of the world would rather live in peace than in artificially induced anxiety or conditions of violence.

    respect is the answer
    greed is the crime

    I also think this conversation needs to get back on track, as guests we have been asked to please keep the topics to boating related issues.

    although I gotta admit the occasional exception is often warranted

    cheers as always

    Boston, this post was never about a boating related issue when started and I personally belief this thread is a relieve valve for all our guests to vent our frustrations about superpowers, governments, dictators etc.
    As long as we keep it civil and respect each other within the spirit of the forum rules, lets keep it going. Always nice to get another perspective from a different point of view from someone else re all these matters :)

    Btw, I heard Elton John has just released his new chart topping hit called "Sandals in the Bin..."

    I'd be tempted to agree with you Wynand except the civility level was falling and the subject getting muddled and then of course there is the anonymous deduction for my last which makes no sense at all. I'd be the first to suggest a halt to the thread if it ends up in chaos because I suppose your right and most people reading this wouldn't find in boating related. From a more selfish point of view since I've just started a build and economics are uppermost in my mind just about everything is about boating.

    Anyway I'm baffled by that last bit of feedback so maybe whoever can step up and explain what it was about "we're being lied to" and "lets keep things on track" might have offended them.

    cheers

    But of course Masalai (amongst a lot of others) is a visionary. He can see through windows, open doors, into clear water and a host of other things !

    OBL sounds a lot like OBS. Both gives one a headache...
