Search for Answers: Who Will Bush Target for Retaliation?
Interview by Between The Lines' Denise Manzari.
Since the first horrifying reports of the terror strikes in New York and the Pentagon, defense and intelligence experts openly speculated that these highly coordinated attacks may have been the work of Saudi millionaire Osama bin Laden. Bin Laden, accused of an earlier bombing at the World Trade Center in 1993, was himself the target of U.S. air strikes in Afghanistan not long after the Clinton Administration blamed him for planning and financing two deadly attacks on U.S. embassies in Africa in 1998. Fearing accusations of complicity in the New York and Pentagon assaults and possible U.S. retaliation, an official of Afghanistan's Taliban government quickly condemned the World Trade Center-Pentagon terrorist attacks and rejected suggestions that bin Laden could be behind them.
But some U.S. commentators, remembering the false assumptions made early on as to the identity of the Oklahoma City bomber, were cautious in pointing a finger at any individual or group.

§Anyone that isn't "PC" at the moment
He'll target anyone that isn't PC, which means anyone that isn't a ruling class, the ones that make the rules. So the rich and middle class with money and power (for what, I'll never figure out) will tell us to get rid of our guns, don't swear, don't drink, don't have sex shops, don't have a street vendor business, don't have too much fun, etc. It's going to the jealous ones that have theirs and want to stop the rest of the world from getting any too. They will rule, they will decide who is the "terrorist." While they put everyone in jail and rob us blind with their "businesses" - that get their money from Big Brother/Sister. They are too stupid to do it alone, like a common street vendor or enterpreneur. So they have Big Brother/Sister to save them. The Cancer Institute, Heart institute all get Fed money. How can we have science with Fed money - they are bootlickers!
