Mugging Mickey Mouse: Arguing about a Disney Fairy Tale

By accepting without meaningful proof the official story of 9-11 the American "left" has allowed the very real "vast right wing conspiracy" to proceed with its agenda: dismantling the remains of American liberalism. Those who are satisfied to base their perceptions of that tragedy on the Commission's "Report" must deem it plausible that the most daring terrorist attack in modern times sprung out of sheer coincidence; that it is the province of malcontents and "tin-foil hatters" to challenge the assertions of proven liars and the statements of a lone German child.

"Binalshibh, for example, has told his interrogators that two events in the plot were instigated by separate chance encounters on German trains. One of the events pertained to the decision of the Hamburg-based hijackers to travel to Afghanistan in 1999. Binalshibh said the decision was made after a chance meeting on a train with a man who told him to contact a third man who could tell him how to join the jihad. The man on the train approached him because he spoke Arabic and had a beard, Binalshibh said. Investigators, trained to distrust coincidence, wondered at the odds of that.

Also, according to footnotes in the commission report, much of the information on the personalities of the lead hijackers comes from a single German source, a Hamburg teenager who knew the hijackers but did not speak Arabic.
