Re: Turkmenistan, UN Discuss Gas Project--So?

I'm not sure this is going to accomplish anything, since you seem to be utterly convinced that this is all a conspiracy by Evil Corporations, but the fact that deals are underway by a country to trade resources for food, and that political relationships in the Middle East will change due to the war, does not seem to have a lot of significance as proof in this matter. I read your first post over and over, and saw nothing to connect this with an attack on the WTC. After reading your posts, I'm not even clear on exactly what conspiracy you're trying to point out.

A quick read seems to indicate some evil plot on the part of Cheney teamed up with Turkmenistan (?!). Sorry if I'm being dense.

Maybe the fact that Microsoft struck a deal on its antitrust suit after September 11 should lead you to conclude that Bill Gates arranged to knock the WTC down, and threatened more terrorism unless the government let up on him. It makes as much sense as the rest of this.

You have to understand, the Web is full to the gills with conspiracy theorists with thousands of pages of "evidence" to show that THEY (whoever THEY happen to be in someone's fevered brain) have caused all the Bad Things to happen as part of some fiendish plot. These pages were there long before Sept. 11.

Islamic terrorists attacked us because they are anti-Western. Period. Like full-bore communism, Islamic fundamentalism cannot coexist on the same planet with a free and open society rubbing your nose in your failures. That's pretty much it. The only effect depending on Middle Eastern oil has on the whole thing is forcing us to be diplomatic with a bunch of nations that really don't deserve it. But that leads us to your next post...
