Fri, 03 Mar 2006 22:40:31 +0000 http://thinkprogress.org/2006/02/22/bin-laden-uae-royals/#comment-465052 [...] The ties between the UAE and Bin Laden are well established. We were told that the Clinton administration hesitated to “take out” Bin Laden because there was a chance that they would harm members of the UAE ruling family who were visiting with Bin Laden at the time. Why would they be visiting him? Hmmm… Then connect all the dots between the Bush and Bin Laden families, and between the CIA and Bin Laden, and between the Bush family and the UAE, and what you are left with is a picture that is starting to become clear through the fog. It is highly possible, ane even probable that the UAE is somehow connected to the events of 9/11 by either direct involvement or by their silence. It could be that their role to refrain from disclaiming any portions of the official story. After all, if they were really as involved as we have been told, don’t you think they would have been a more logical target for our war on terror than Iraq? In fact, the UAE is guilty of most of the crimes of which the US accused Iraq: human rights violations, political oppression, direct ties to Al Qaeda, direct ties to the Taliban, funding of the 9/11 hijackers (according to legend), and involvement in illegal nuclear proliferation. Then again, the US is guilty of those things too! [...] [...] The ties between the UAE and Bin Laden are well established.

We are talking about a sale by one company of its assets to another company. It isn't a sale by the U.S. to a foreign country. It's a shame that concept goes over the head of many posters here. 2. Having a company from a Middle Eastern Country manage any infrastructure in the U.S. is disquieting. Taking a position that no Arab company can do significant business in the U.S. might be just the wedge issue bin Ladin needs to overthrough some of our allies and gain control over our oil supply. 3.

I had always thought if this situation where to accure, are "President" would step in an make sure this kind of deal would have an investigation that would seek to out all answers of Nation Security and Nation Sovernty. The lack of investigation-which is manditory by law-, the hard stance from the President to move the sale forward, and the strange ties between all the people involved. Sounds more and more like the banks are really running/ruining things on our small little planet. I think we should take our country back from these shady business men.

They can’t give one reason why this is not blatant corruption or even one good thing he has done as president. Instead they throw their own religious and abortion beliefs making you ungodly, not worthy of having an opinion. I don’t understand the anti abortion people who cant accept that Bush has done nothing to stop one single abortion. Millions upon millions have been aborted since he has been your president. He only shows support for your cause and others when it involves a vote for his party. Why is he so fast to say we will help rebuild the Mosque in Iraq but not the same offer to rebuild a single church in New Orleans or the ones destroyed in Alabama?
