I'm still waiting for that evidence you mentioned about Osama denying involvement on 9/11 a few hours after the attack.
October 16, 2001 -- An interview with Osama bin Laden was published in a Karachi-based Pakistani daily newspaper, Ummat, on September 28, 2001. In this interview, bin Laden says of the September 11 attacks in the US:
"I have already said that I am not involved in the 11 September attacks in the United States. As a Muslim, I try my best to avoid telling a lie. I had no knowledge of these attacks, nor do I consider the killing of innocent women, children and other humans as an appreciable act. Islam strictly forbids causing harm to innocent women, children and other people. Such a practice is forbidden even in the course of a battle...
"I was not involved in the September 11 attacks in the United States nor did I have knowledge of the attacks. There exists a government within a government within the United States. The United States should try to trace the perpetrators of these attacks within itself; to the people who want to make the present century a century of conflict between Islam and Christianity. That secret government must be asked as to who carried out the attacks. ... The American system is totally in control of the Jews, whose first priority is Israel, not the United States."

So 4 years later he said - I want to make an anniversary video. What was I wearing 4 years ago? And let's go back to that same wall, because I like it a lot.
Don't be assinine.

Guys, guys, bin Laden (IF he's still alive.. which I doubt) is CIA. He's tight with the Bush family. This is all a stitch-up. More fearmongering. Don't sweat it. Let the powers that be continue to play their silly little fear games.

The only thing about Bin Laden that makes real sense to me is that he works for some faction in our government. The reason we have a hard time finding out the truth is because not every agency is involved, but certain people (the top ones) in all the agencies (such as the FBI and CIA) know about it. If you put all the evidence together presented since 9/11/01, unless you're a sheeple, you will come to the same conclusion.
I say to you, Allah knows that it had never occurred to us to strike the towers. But after it became unbearable and we witnessed the oppression and tyranny of the American/Israeli coalition against our people in Palestine and Lebanon, it came to my mind.
The events that affected my soul in a direct way started in 1982 when America permitted the Israelis to invade Lebanon and the American Sixth Fleet helped them in that. This bombardment began and many were killed and injured and others were terrorised and displaced.
I couldn't forget those moving scenes, blood and severed limbs, women and children sprawled everywhere. Houses destroyed along with their occupants and high rises demolished over their residents, rockets raining down on our home without mercy.
The situation was like a crocodile meeting a helpless child, powerless except for his screams. Does the crocodile understand a conversation that doesn't include a weapon? And the whole world saw and heard but it didn't respond.
In those difficult moments many hard-to-describe ideas bubbled in my soul, but in the end they produced an intense feeling of rejection of tyranny, and gave birth to a strong resolve to punish the oppressors.
And as I looked at those demolished towers in Lebanon, it entered my mind that we should punish the oppressor in kind and that we should destroy towers in America in order that they taste some of what we tasted and so that they be deterred from killing our women and children.
And that day, it was confirmed to me that oppression and the intentional killing of innocent women and children is a deliberate American policy. Destruction is freedom and democracy, while resistance is terrorism and intolerance.

By that flawed rationale, then nothing we say here should be considered true by anyone. I suppose you happen to believe what you see on TV more than what you can research yourself on the net??
