Such short memories we all have?

So does no one here remember the Taliban's rejection of the Unocal oil pipeline last year that Cheney and Co are so very keen on?

There are so many holes in the official statements regarding the appalling WTC disaster that only the ignorant could be taken in by the gross jingoism emanating from 'our leaders'.

Oh for some just leaders!

Or maybe a world with no leaders at all would be safer for all of us...?
