George Bush et al have yet to prove their conspiracy theory that Iraq had
WMDs.

Keep up with the news: he has retracted that claim.

Now here's a question: If the president has such power that he
can order the murder of thousands of Americans and keep everyone
quiet about it,

Bush was obviously out of the loop.  Anybody who knows him, knows
that his brain is burned-out from too much coke and alcohol  abuse.
And that assessment was from a real spOOk, not a pretend

This is a proper analysis:
 9-11 Synthetic Terror: Made in USA

by Webster Griffin Tarpley,
Intelligence Expert, Activist, Historian
Third Edition released June 2006


This book provides an urgent answer to the failure of the US
intelligence agencies, the Congressional Joint Inquiry, and the
Kean-Hamilton 9-11 Commission to discover the basic facts in the
September 2001 terror attacks.

The author starts from the official myth of 9-11 - nineteen Arab
hijackers, al Qaeda, Osama Bin Laden, the laptop in the cave in
Afghanistan - and shows how this myth was fabricated during the ten
days after 9-11 by media leaks from George Tenet and Richard Clarke,
remarks by Colin Powell, and Bush's September 20 address to Congress.
In the meantime, each of these figures has been repeatedly caught
blatantly lying about Iraq and other subjects, and it is high time
their lies about 9-11 be exposed.

After a reality check to establish that no proof for the official
account of 9-11 has ever been forthcoming, the author develops a theory
of international terrorism based on the experience of the Kennedy
assassination, the Red Brigades, the Baader-Meinhof group, and other
recent cases.

International terrorism - including 9-11 - is overwhelmingly the
product of intelligence agencies, he argues, pointing out the roles of
patsies and fall-guys, of networks of moles inside the government and
the media, of anonymous professionals who actually carry out the
atrocities the public sees, and of secret command cells in privatized
paramilitary settings.

Using this framework, Tarpley proceeds to analyze a score of points at
which the official account of 9-11 is absurd, contradictory, highly
suspicious, or just physically impossible. Answering objections, the
author shows that such vital ideas in American history as the
Declaration of Independence, Lincoln's House Divided Speech, and the
1860 Republican Party platform would be classified as conspiracy
theories by the self-appointed neocon guardians of orthodoxy today.

Tarpley outlines the long history of terrorism as a tool to manipulate
public opinion in favor of war and dictatorship, from Guy Fawkes to the
Maine to Operation Northwoods. Through his famous spot resolutions
which rejected the Polk administration's official account of the
outbreak of the Mexican War, the figure of Abraham Lincoln emerges to
exemplify the classical American demand for truth and rejection of
government manipulation.

The book concludes with a survey of the November 2004 presidential
election in the U.S. and the geopolitical struggle between U.S.
expansionist neo-cons and the Russian federation; it is the first book
to place 9/11 within an ongoing Cold War context.
