 Pakistan Denies Taliban Ties in AfghanistanPosted on Feb 1, 2012
Claims made by NATO that Pakistan is in cahoots with the Afghan Taliban are tantamount to “old wine in an even older bottle,” according to Pakistan’s Foreign Minister Hina Rabbani Khar. However, this particular batch of wine represents thousands of mandatory conversations (read: interrogations) versus Khar’s official denial. —KA

RE: ...the proof that an impartial panel of citizens would accept?
I believe that’s what Clark and the thousands of others cited below are calling for: an impartial panel of citizens, to which evidence is presented, impartially, i.e. without it’s being tainted or dismissed out of hand as ‘wako conspiracy theory’; in particular, that which the 9/11 commission refused to be admitted… e.g.
http://georgewashington.blogspot.com/2005/11/911-cover-up.html
THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 17, 2005
There’s Never Been a Real 9/11 Investigation You might reasonably assume that the 9/11 Commission investigated September 11th, and concluded that Osama Bin Laden and his group of terrorists were solely responsible.
Unfortunately, a quick look at the government’s investigations reveals that— not only has there never been a real investigation—but the behavior of government representatives in willfully obstructing all attempts at investigation comprises evidence of guilt. Specifically, in all criminal trials, evasiveness, obstruction, and destruction of evidence all constitute strong circumstantial evidence that the accused is guilty or, at the very least, not to be believed. 9/11 is no different.
For example, the former director of the FBI says there was a cover up by the 9/11 Commission
And the 9/11 Commissioners knew that military officials lied to the Commission, and considered recommending criminal charges for such false statements, yet didn’t bother to tell the American people.
Indeed, the co-chairs of the Commission now admit that the Commission largely operated based upon political considerations.
9/11 Commission co-chair Lee Hamilton says “I don’t believe for a minute we got everything right”, that the Commission was set up to fail, that people should keep asking questions about 9/11, that the 9/11 debate should continue, and that the 9/11 Commission report was only “the first draft” of history.
9/11 Commissioner Bob Kerrey said that “There are ample reasons to suspect that there may be some alternative to what we outlined in our version . . . We didn’t have access . . . .”
And former 9/11 Commissioner Max Cleland resigned from the Commission, stating: “It is a national scandal”; “This investigation is now compromised”; and “One of these days we will have to get the full story because the 9-11 issue is so important to America. But this White House wants to cover it up”.
[...]
and the current White House does nothing to disturb the cover up - they follow orders, in fact better than the last regime

homoerotic,
In a larger picture that you willfully chose to be ignorant, 9/11 was a staged event and the arabs were used as the fall guys, the evidence is overwhelming.
Israel, the MIC and Cheney led militarists used this malignant event to promote foreign policy and economic objectives they could not achieve otherwise, while their objectives were temporarily met the ‘fruit’ from these wrongful acts appear today as extrajudicial renditioning, Patriot act and Patriot act II and most recently NDAA.
Karma is a bitch and everything that came into being over the big lie of 9/11 will eventually end this country as we knew it.

blogdog,
Some posters never let facts get in the way of -big lie- propaganda.
In law there is a tenet of ‘the fruit of the poisonous tree’. 9/11 was the U.S. poisonous tree and all the fruit from it leads to rot and ruination.
We need to get back to telling the truth once again.

Bin Laden Was Made A Wanted Man By Gaddafi

Osama bin Laden was on Gaddafi’s radar well before the 9/11 attrocities
8:46pm UK, Monday May 02, 2011
Mark Stone, Sky News reporter, in Tripoli
Osama bin Laden was a wanted man well before the 9/11 attacks, before the
attack on the USS Cole and before the US Embassy bombings in east Africa.
The first international warrant for his arrest was issued in April 1998 following
a request not by the Americans or the Europeans, but by Colonel Gaddafi of
Libya.
On March 16, 1998, five months before the al Qaeda bombings of the US
Embassies in Kenya and Tanzania, the Libyan Ministry of Justice named Bin
Laden as the main suspect in a double murder that had taken place in the
Libyan town of Sirte four years earlier.
The warrant was forwarded to Interpol in France, where it was formalised on
April 15, 1998.
