We knew it was bin laden before he admitted it - he'd threatened, and attacked, us before.

So what if he says he did it, that proves nothing - other than he says he did it.

He's the number one suspect - and all of the cards show that his guys did it.

A lot of us are not looking for whacked-out theories just the truth and we are NOT buying your governments story that 19 men with boxcutters defeated the greatest nation on Earth. Or maybe that's the real terror right there?

The U.S., in case you have not heard was not "defeated" - it was attacked by lunatics.

However, I digress....

The key issue here for me is NOT the fact that the BBC reported WTC7 it is how they behaved afterwards:

1. Denied it and claimed they "lost the tape" - Utter BS
2. Video was removed from You-Tube and Google Video - several times
3. BBC denies the report is real
4. BBC back-tracks
5. BBC will not give News Source
6. BBC Whine about being labelled conspirators (lol WTF?)

This type of behaviour is piss-poor and certainly not what I expect for my Licence fee (We pay for the BBC each year!) but it just goes to show how the media really behaves and what they are actually used for.
I don't mind complaints about the government of the United States, when they have some basis in fact - but you're going off in the wrong direction if you think that a bunch of menatlly-ill religous fanatics with sharp objects are incapable of hijacking planes. It had been done before. The crew, captain, and passengers probably thought, and were told by the terrorists, that the plane was being hijacked and taken somewhere to land. Planes were never before used as missiles. They didn't get away with it on the plane that crashed in PA, Flight 93. The passengers knew that the other hijacked planes were crashed into buildings.

These hijackings were partially the fault of the airlines and the FAA because the captain's cabin was not locked.

The aftermath of 9/11, and how the U.S. reacted, elicits different views and opinions. I would have tracked down and killed as many Taliban and Al Quada people as possible, right after 9/11 - including mass bombings in the mountains near the Pakistan/Afghanistan border. These people are crazy, and need to out-crazed. It was a huge mistake to arm them against the Russians in the first place, and they paid us back with attacks. We should have let the U.S.S.R. have that place, and not interfered. So much for dealing with religous fanatics.
