Personal challenge to Forum participants!

[akbound]

Much has passed through the HuntingPolitics Forum regarding the current war on terrorism, the attack of 9/11, the current 9/11 Commission, and "Who is to blame". A considered amount of the debate has been reasoned and intelligent, displaying not only concern over the issue, but a willingness by forum participants to be informed. On the other hand there has been some opinions put forth that demonstrate not only an overly simplistic viewpoint, but a near total lack of knowledge of the facts regarding these incidents.

I challenge any of this forums participants that would "offer their opinions" on this subject to take a few minutes from life's busy schedule to read the following analysis. I believe you will find it both informative and factual. Though I suspect fewer than one in three of you, will take the time to read it through with understanding!

Here it is........that is my challenge!

Those of you that have read it, and are looking to place blame, have your opinions been altered? (I'm more than a little curious about the response of a few of you!)

Nothing I haven't read before.

Here's another site you might want to check out and read some info.

www.infowars.com

There's plenty of blame to go around. That's why I get info from all sides.

Hi Charlie P,

Thanks for the site. I've added it as a favorite so I can sit down and read through it at length. I've got my father today, (Alzheimer's....usually have him five weekdays and my one brother and I share weekends. My brother does spend nights sleeping here to help split up the evening work. He wanted some time today to spend with a son.), and my wife is home for a change on a weekend. We have to catch up on some shopping. But should have plenty of time this evening.....for reading.

Thank you again.

I read the first 25%....and like CharlieP it sounds like much of previous info I have gleaned before.........
I look forward to reading ALL of it later when i have more time...it is interesting to get it laid outin one long chrono format.....
It makes me sad...and angry

Hi Akbound

Sorry to hear that about your Dad it's a very tough thing to have to deal with.

Hi Charlie P,

Thanks for your supportive words, it is appreciated! I have to run for now or the shopping won't get done, (started the laundry at 5:00 am, just finished it.)

See ya all on the bounce back!

akbound,

Off subject here - but I caught the word Alzheimers. I wish you & family the best in dealing with your dad. My mom and dad both had AZ. Both are gone now.

Myself/wife/daughter moved back to my childhood home to care for them 24/7 until they sucummed to AZ. I suppose you and I could tell some AZ war stories. Good Luck.

Ak, interesting but nothing new there if one has been keeping up on the facts and information.
You may want to read the book as I have suggested here before, Why America Slept and when you finish that let me know I have a few others that are interesting and help one understand how we got where we are today.

Hi AJ52,

Thanks for the moral support! It does get interesting at times.....but we are "kind of" use to some of it. My wife and I cared for our son, David, until his death about 18 months ago. He had Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy and a body that continued to get weaker, though his mind was as sharp as a tack! (He died as a consequence of bad results of a surgery.....not a direct result of the disease.) Plus my wife helped care for a severely diabetic mother until her death just this past December. So I guess if there is such a thing as "being prepared" for a task......we are getting better at it! (If such a thing is possible?!?) And even though there is nothing funny about Alzheimer's.......there are sometimes humorous moments. (A way of helping one to maintain some sanity!)


Hi logs,

Thanks for the info on the book. I did briefly check out a site that provided the first chapter of the book. It will definitely get added to my list of must read! (I'm currently finishing "Deliver Us from Evil", by Sean Hannity.) Plus trying to keep up with a fraction of what is available on the web. On top of trying to continue some other reading as well. Hobbies......(mostly outdoors, firearms, traveling, etc), the Western Canon.....(if I'm lucky to live long enough I may yet finish them)......and continue to work on expanding my historical and scientific readings!

One of my great joys in life is reading. Hopefully life will be kind to me and allow me to maintain enough vision to continue reading as long as I'm alive! I have been making a concerted effort of late to make up for some of the lost years when I did very little reading. It's kind of like a joy rediscovered!

When I read the article from my original post I realized it would provide a very brief synopsis for those that had not availed themselves of this information previously. Hopefully it helped fill in a few blanks for some of them.

Thanks again for the title of the book!

Dave
