Greetings EEVBees:
--DJ has stated:
"It also helps when your family is best friends with two US Presidents, you have them stay at your family palace, your family has invested in their family's business, your brother was having private breakfast with said ex-president on the morning of 9/11, and they like you so much that they let your entire family leave the country on a private jet whilst everyone else in the country is grounded."
--Of course if you believe that all of the Bushes were complicit in 911, and that therefore the invasion of Afghanistan, and the destruction of the caves at Tora Bora was not really an attempt to get OBL, but an elaborate farce to cover murderous and pointless warmongering, plain and simple, then your statement makes sense. In fact not all of the BL family are terrorists, and if fact they did not "leave the country on a private jet whilst everyone else in the country is grounded." This is an oft repeated lie by Michael Moore, see below quote from the 911 Comission Report:
"During the morning of September 11, the FAA suspended all non emergency air activity in the national airspace. While the national airspace was closed, decisions to allow aircraft to fly were made by the FAA working with the Department of Defense, Department of State, U.S. Secret Service, and the FBI. The Department of Transportation reopened the national airspace to U.S. carriers effective 11:00 A.M. on September 13, 2001, for flights out of or into airports that had implemented the FAA's new security requirements.
After the airspace reopened, nine chartered flights with 160 people, mostly Saudi nationals, departed from the United States between September 14 and 24. In addition, one Saudi government flight, containing the Saudi deputy defense minister and other members of an official Saudi delegation, departed Newark Airport on September 14. Every airport involved in these Saudi flights was open when the flight departed, and no inappropriate actions were taken to allow those flights to depart.
Another particular allegation is that a flight carrying Saudi nationals from Tampa, Florida, to Lexington, Kentucky, was allowed to fly while airspace was closed, with special approval by senior U.S. government officials. On September 13, Tampa police brought three young Saudis they were protecting on an off-duty security detail to the airport so they could get on a plane to Lexington. Tampa police arranged for two more private investigators to provide security on the flight. They boarded a chartered Learjet. The plane took off at 4:37 P.M., after national airspace was open, more than five hours after the Tampa airport had reopened, and after other flights had arrived at and departed from that airport. The three Saudi nationals debarked from the plane and were met by local police. Their private security guards were paid. and the police then escorted the three Saudi passengers to a hotel where they joined relatives already in Lexington. The FBI is alleged to have had no record of the flight and denied that it occurred, hence contributing to the story of a "phantom flight." This is another misunderstanding. The FBI was initially misinformed about how the Saudis got to Lexington by a local police officer in Lexington who did not have firsthand knowledge of the matter. The Bureau subsequently learned about the flight.
These flights were screened by law enforcement officials, primarily the FBI. For example, one flight, the so-called Bin Ladin flight, departed the United States on September 20 with 26 passengers, most of them relatives of Usama Bin Ladin. Screening of this flight was directed by an FBI agent in the Baltimore Field Office who was also a pilot ... The Bin Ladin flight and other flights we examined were screened in accordance with policies set by FBI headquarters and coordinated through working-level inter-agency processes. Although most of the passengers were not interviewed, 22 of the 26 people on the Bin Ladin flight were interviewed by the FBI. Many were asked detailed questions. None of the passengers stated that they had any recent contact with Usama Bin Ladin or knew anything about terrorist activity."
--Now, while it is acknowledged that some members of the BL family are business acquaintances of the Bushes, I do not think anyone takes seriously the notion that the two families are "best friends."
--Mr. Assange formerly had his own TV program on "Russia Today" under the auspices of fellow "Openness Advocate" Vladimir Putin, under whose reign many journalists have disappeared with out a trace, and whose enemies have developed mysterious cases of poisoning, including radiation poisoning from Polonium. Now, Mr. Assange has obtained asylum in a country run by a fellow who is reputed to be a front man for the drug cartels. No word yet on whether Mr. Assange's friends who put up his bail in good faith will be getting their money back, but it does not seem likely. Oh well, Mr. Assange still hates the USA, and that's the important thing.
“Injustice is relatively easy to bear; what stings is justice."
