    Sorry if already discussed but haven't read through the entire thread (mostly only the conspiracy theories on more recent pages).

    How do we handle the possible connections between OBL and powerful leaders from Pakistan, Afghanistan, Iraq, Saudi, etc? When we go through all of the data files that were uncovered and find there has been aid given to OBL & his network from factions of governments that are simply too numerous & complex to deal with?

    Do we play more of the diplomacy card from this point on or do we aggressively go after every single connection to OBL? If the latter, would that lead to a more unified Middle East that has long been speculated as the start of the ultimate religious war?

    We have aggressively gone after AL Qaeda finances since 9/11 and they are almost broke. This will not stop. I know of no alleged connections with leaders of these countries. revolutionaries like bin Laden are NOT what any of them want in their country.

    I would hate to be the camera man, because you know the whole time you are in there taking those staged pictures that you are going to be killed when you are done.

    Is there a Presidential administration that doesn't fuel conspiracy theories?

    After centuries of scientific discoveries, religion is still widespread, people still feel that governments incapable of providing the simplest of services are capable of conspiring (yet keeping the evidence secret), etc. You really can't stop people from believing stupid ****.

    You are aware that not all European countries have the same economy and government, right?

    I wouldn't expect or want it to stop. If we just take Pakistan as an example to keep with the thread, isn't it obvious there are some within their gov't that aided OBL and his group? The strong language that was directed at the US earlier this week that similar missions in the future (w/o coordination with Pakistan) would not be tolerated implies possible connections.

    I'm guessing our list of known terror suspects has increased significantly in the last week. Some of the suspects may have simply given OBL some cash here and there. Some may be members of royal families in other Middle Eastern countries. Some may be remotely "connected" to OBL but have never attempted to organize or carry through with actual operations. There will be various degrees of their involvement. All of these connections, no matter how minor, are probably extremely nervous that they will be targeted by the US in the future. Fear may cause them to feel that some sort of action is needed on their part to protect their interests (or country's interests) in the future.

    Gulf of Tonkin "incident".....I think you knew that.

    The Reichstag was in reference to Hitler assumption of power and framing his opponents. I think it was around 1933.

    Israel/Iran- please refer me to a non-nuclear state attacking a nuclear state. I am curious if you can come up with a case of such unadulterated maddness. I have several cases of nuclear states attacking non-nuclear states, though. The Israelis are not fooling anybody that doesn't drink the US MSM koolaid. Talk to a european and see what they say....US opinion isn't the only one that matters. It may be on this board but this is a limited, albeit entertaining forum.

    Within 5 months Kennedy was dead.

    I'll be damned.....Lincoln was shot as well.....

    Evolution is complete crap. Living matter can, under no circumstances, spontaneously spring from non-living matter. Never, has never happened and cannot happen. Life is a product of already living matter. In every instance....bar none.

    I'll stop there.

    Pakistan attacked India literally dozens of times over Kashmir. Many of these attacks occurred during a time when India was a nuclear power and Pakistan was not.

    And your junk about Kennedy and Lincoln is all nonsense. Get a clue. Dr. Doom doesn't secretly run the government.
