Does Al Qaeda really exist?

I have thought that for at least a year now, but the bogeyman needs to be kept alive, for how else is the (perpetual) "war on terrorism" to continue with public support if the mastermind and all of his lieutenants have been eradicated?

may i remind of the spanish trainbombings in may.

Remind all you wish. The idea that the attack on Spain had anything to do with governmental change is nothing more than a propaganda ploy to play to the fear of the masses.

Consider this; the attack on Spain is spun as AQ's plot to sway the people from re-electing a bush supporter, and the average American Joe has been enlightened as to AQ's psychology. Fast forward to November 2nd '04, when just prior to, a supposed AQ attack takes place, and the gullible American masses are reminded of Spain. What do you think would be the expected outcome?

you didnt get my point, no problem i am not here to educate. maybe think a little harder and u will understand the meaning of my post in responce to yours.

to answer your question i think in such a case bush would be reelected. you cant compare the spanish people to the us-people. there were demos prior to the trainbombings with 500.000+ people against the war on irak. the conservatists in spain were not reelected because they tried to fool the people in telling them that local terrorists ETA did the bombings. that was a lie, it was clear from the beginning that alquida was responsible.

Feyd, thank you but i dont need any more pics in my vast data base of Alien memorabilia.

Cool pic, though.

They do (did) exist, but they are extreamly hyped up by the US government, now they are labeling any terrorist or millitant as "al qauda".

Ya know I'm sorry I just have to comment. Your telling other people to think harder, that you witnessed the events on 9/11 and yet your first post only mentioned 2 buildings being hit.

You may want to try counting again.

As for Al Quaeda (however you spell it) OBL has been arround for a long time, they were fininced by Regan in the early 80's as a terrorist faction to cause trouble with the Communists. Same period that Regan supplied Saddam with Equipment and funding. 1983 I think it was.

One of the reasons OBL hates us so much is that more funding and support went to Saddam and took some steam out of his holy war. Anyway tye go back before the 90's and there was never any question about their existance.

you mean that scratch on the pentagon?
