* 9/11 and Afghanistan?


                             Afghan children



In tonight's speech, President Obama said TWICE in his speech: "It was from Afghanistan we were attacked on 9/11."
This is my response.. which is the same response I gave for Joe Lieberman in my post dated Sunday, Nov 22:

(1) Most of the 9/11 terrorists were Saudis. NONE were Afghans.
(2) 9/11 terrorists were trained in American flight schools. The training required to carry out 9/11 didn't require jumping over hurdles...the type of training obtained in "terrorist camps."
(3) The planes used in 9/11 departed from within the U.S, not FROM Afghanistan.
(4) 9/11 terrorist attacks were not planned from Afghanistan, but from apartments all over Europe and on the Internet. OBL never admitted to the planning. He said he was "pleased with the attack." Bush never made public the connection between OBL and 9/11.
(5) There's no connection between the Taliban and 9/11. Granted, the Taliban have their human rights issues... but that doesn't connect them with 9/11.
(6) No illegal Afghan WMD were used on 9/11. The weapons were made in box cutter factories in China...not made in Afghanistan.
