The Hunt for Osama bin Laden

Salem bin Laden, Osama bin Laden’s oldest brother, was a founder of Arbusto Energy, an oil company owned by George W. Bush, who later became President of the United States. Salem died in a mysterious plane crash in Texas in 1988. Weird theories swirl around the relationships between the Bush and bin Ladens families, Arbusto Oil, the Bank of Credit and Commerce International (BCCI) and Paraguay.

Arbusto Oil and the bin Laden Connection (Information Clearing House)
Bank of Credit and Commerce International (BCCI) (American Patriot Friends Network)
New Economy of Terror (Centre for Policy Alternatives)

There is no terror in a bang, only in the anticipation of it.
Quotation from Alfred Hitchcock

Leaving behind nights of terror and fear
I rise
Into a daybreak that’s wondrously clear
I rise
Bringing the gifts that my ancestors gave,
I am the dream and the hope of the slave.
I rise
I rise
I rise.

Poem by Maya Angelou, Still I Rise

    Sounds incredible but it’s true…
    Our “democracies” hide more secrets than we imagine… It’s not properly a pleasant world to live in. After all, no one gets out alive.
    Let’s hope Obama can do better (and hopefully he won’t represent the oil lobby… altough I am sure he’s backed up by lobbies as well).

    Well can’t say i like Michael Moore. I don’t tend to like any propagandists. He twists information to fit his political view. Kinda lame. You don’t need to do that to figure out the government is corrupt and has been for a very long time. There hasn’t been a president in the last hundred years or so who wasn’t corrupted by the power of the position before they even got into office. In fact it probably goes back to shortly after the civil war. When the states lost their rights to govern themselves and the central government gained all that power is when all this began. Then you include the world banking system which has been behind nearly every terrible event in our worlds history in the last 5-6 hundred years and you see why our country has become so powerful and why we are involved in so much of the worlds politics. We are a tool used to keep the world in line. How else could a nation so far in debt keep a somewhat stable economy and not get called on those debts.

    Good quote from Alfred Hitchcock.

    I found a dead kidney in a trash can yesterday, must have been Osama’s. Where is the other one, aren’t there two to each person?

    Mathew, there was an “age of innocence” - even during the cold war. Bush junior changed the doctrine. Now we got the “age of confrontation”. There is no happy ending to this and no easy way out…
    The common folks are always the ones who shoulder the burden, democracy or not!

    Your imagination has no limit! :lol:

    I don’t think Bin Laden will ever be found. He is an evil person for sure but I feel like our leader used him for their own good as well. Scare the people, they will be better obedient consumers…

    Who are the enemies of the USA?

    I visited the official FBI website to ascertain who are the most wanted and there is included a description of Osama bin laden who is wanted for murder of US nationals outside the USA ,but no mention is made of 9/11. The reason it is not mentioned is there is no evidence he was involved.

    The 9/11 commission concluded it was al-Qaeda who was responsible for 9/11 attacks and that they spent between $400, 000 and $500,000, but the specific origins of the funds remain unknown.

    Best wishes

    Bin Laden is probably in Florida, with a clean shave, playing shuffle board.

    Bin Laden is probaly in a very beautiful beach on the northeast of Brazil, having drinks at the pool! He will never be found!
    The story about the oil company and George W Bush is shocking!

    As Zee hinted another theory is that Osama died of kidney failure several years ago.
    As Lindsay said it’s also true there was never any evidence to incriminate Osama for 9/11.

    Nice burqua - very flattering but only cool if worn as a fashion statement rather than a fashion requirement.

    hugs

  18. Phil Says:

    I hope people would be less shocked by the business ties between the Bush and bin Laden families if they knew more about Osama’s relationship with his own family.
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bin_Laden_family
    “The Saudi government revoked his passport and the bin Laden family officially disowned Osama in 1994.”
    Osama is not the bin Laden family.
