Yeah, a really really long time, especially after we hang him for treason and mass murder for 9/11. Then again, there are people still devoted to Hitler, too.

Right now “The Lincoln Assassination” is on The
Report thisHistory Channel. The program is described aa,
“Many hated the man who is now, perhaps, the
most beloved President.” There is hope for George
Bush. It will just take time. A LONG TIME!

The real bin Laden died in late 2001. All these audio recordings coming out now are phony, but of course the CIA says they are “authentic”, since they are the ones making them. Al Qaeda has always been a tool of the CIA.
I recommend David Ray Griffin’s “Bin Laden, Dead or Alive?” a short book that examines every video and audio recording that has come out since 2001. It is Griffin’s latest scholarly contribution to this subject.

From what I hear, one soldier has been kidnapped already and is being used as a bargaining chip by the Taliban. Its going to get bloody, thats for sure.

It’s beginning to remind me of the “free fire” zones in Vietnam. The U.S. would send in groups of military people to certain areas and tell them to assume everyone was the enemy, and to shoot anything that moved. Which of course inevitably led to massacres across that small country.
One report notes that the sweep of isolated areas in Afghanistan is being conducted to get rid of the insurgents before the election in August. Presumably that’s to guarantee that the oil corporation executive Karzai, the U.S. puppet, will “win” the election because his opponents will be unable to vote.
I thought the war was against al Queda. Now we are killing “insurgents?” Who are they, and how are they identified? Anybody who is opposed to having their town attacked by the U.S. Marines?
