TERRORIST NATIONS ACLU: "Today we launched a new web feature - an ACLU Watchlist Counter to dramatize the absurd bloat in our nation's terrorist watchlists. It wasn't long after 9/11 that we began hearing from Americans who were having problems getting on airplanes because, they were told, their names were on terrorist watchlists. In typical Bush Administration style, these systems had been roughly thrown together with little thought for questions of guilt or innocence or fairness to those unfairly targeted. In the years since, our out-of-control watchlists have received a lot of terrible publicity, such as when famous people like Sen. Ted Kennedy or Yusuf Islam (aka Cat Stevens) got trapped on them, or when 60 Minutes discovered that the list included the president of Bolivia, dead people, and dozens of common American names like Robert Johnson and John Williams. Despite all this publicity, and the problems faced by thousands or millions of frustrated innocent American citizens, the problem has not gotten better. In fact, it has gotten even worse. Based on numbers contained in a report (PDF) issued by the Inspector General of the Department of Justice, the watchlist is growing by 20,000 records a month - and now exceeds 917,000 people. And it's growing by the minute - a growth that you can view in real time on our new page, which displays a rolling, real-time counter showing how many names are on the list, according to that DOJ report." RawStory: "Newly-released records obtained through a Freedom of Information Act request contradict the 9/11 Commission's report on the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks and raise fresh questions about the role of Saudi government officials in connection to the hijackers. The FBI timeline reveals that alleged hijacker Hamza Al-Ghamdi, who was aboard the United Airlines flight which crashed into the South Tower of the World Trade Center, had booked a future flight to San Francisco. He also had a ticket for a trip from Casablanca to Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia." This simply adds fuel to the theory that the US government either allowed 9/11 to happen or was involved in it. It certainly shows that the 9/11 Commission has been messing with information. The danger of terrorism does not come so much from individuals, but from states who have the money and resources to set up large campaigns. The US and Britain are at the moment the countries most involved in state terrorism against other nations. The US has a long history of state terrorism. And the gullible population is only too happy to swallow the 'war against terror' propaganda. Even prince Harry fell for it, but then he isn't the brightest guy in the royal family. No, his mother would not have been proud. Prince Harry is nothing but a (state sponsored) terrorist. Harry can now continue his mucho macho behaviour in the London clubs where he loves to get drunk. 2:09:19 PM
