For those who believe that president Bush "invented" Osama Bin Laden or even terrorism. did you know that this whole Al-Qaeda buisness originated in 1990, during Clinton's presidency. and that the World Trade Center was bombed in 1993, long before Afganistan or 9/11, and still you believe that every movie released on AL-JEZEERA a FORIEN news station are some how forged by the government. and that somehow the "evil" "all powerful" US government somehow controls all the news organizations including CNN, BBC, and the liberal slanted CBS into reporting on a "made up" bin laden

when i said 1990 i meant 1990s, it is true that the early 90s were during the Bush sr. presidency, however the development of Al-Qaeda and the first WTC bombing happened during the Clinton Administration proving Al-Qaeda is not a figment of the Bush administration's imagination

What was the question again?
Clinton was president in 1990? I bet old George H.W. would be surprised by that.
Oh, the conspiricy thing. Well, let's see.
From in or about 1989 until the present, the group called itself "al Qaeda" ("the Base"). From 1989 until in or about 1991, the group (hereafter referred to as "al Qaeda") was headquartered in Afghanistan and Peshawar, Pakistan. In or about 1991, the leadership of al Qaeda, including its "emir" (or prince) Usama Bin Laden, relocated to the Sudan. Al Qaeda was headquartered in the Sudan from approximately 1991 until approximately 1996 but still maintained offices in various parts of the world. In 1996, Usama Bin Laden and other members of al Qaeda relocated to Afghanistan. At all relevant times, al Qaeda was led by its emir, Usama Bin Laden. Members of al Qaeda pledged an oath of allegiance (called a "bayat") to Usama Bin Laden and al Qaeda. Those who were suspected of collaborating against al Qaeda were to be identified and killed.
2. Bin Laden and al Qaeda violently opposed the United States for several reasons. First, the United States was regarded as an "infidel" because it was not governed in a manner consistent with the group's extremist interpretation of Islam. Second, the United States was viewed as providing essential support for other "infidel" governments and institutions, particularly the governments of Saudi Arabia and Egypt, the nation of Israel, and the United Nations organization, which were regarded as enemies of the group. Third, al Qaeda opposed the involvement of the United States armed forces in the Gulf War in 1991 and in Operation Restore Hope in Somalia in 1992 and 1993. In particular, al Qaeda opposed the continued presence of American military forces in Saudi Arabia (and elsewhere on the Saudi Arabian peninsula) following the Gulf War. Fourth, al Qaeda opposed the United States Government because of the arrest, conviction and imprisonment of persons belonging to al Qaeda or its affiliated terrorist groups or those with whom it worked. For these and other reasons, Bin Laden declared a jihad, or holy war, against the United States, which he has carried out through al Qaeda and its affiliated organizations.

That is very good, you did well but will be ineffective. You see the conspiracy theorists are paranoid delusional and rational thought cannot overcome their delusions. They need drugs and professional treatment, but first they need to acknowledge they have a problem. Much like those who have an irrational hatred for Bush, these people will suffer personal losses such as friends, family even jobs. If they have someone who really cares and can do an intervention it might happen, but my guess is they will continue with their delusions and the transference will just change over time to some other "enemy".

curiously to me that maximum human beings conspiracy theorists start up with a concept, and then look for data, ignoring each and every little thing that would not help their concept. only once you evaluate that there is not any adequate explication to grant a proof for each element of an adventure does now not mean the government of a few secret corporation is reliable. i don't consistently evaluate the full component in respected comments in spite of the undeniable fact that it is extra probable the are preserving up embarrassing failures, or that they are going to now not admit they don't understand what befell, than that they are protecting up a conspiracy.

Get ready to laugh. Your going to get the wackos attacking you.
They'll say something how Rove, Rumsfeld, Bush, Cheney and Bin Laden got together and planned.
Just watch. Some kook will suggest that or something similar.
