Bush is bin Laden's Ally

October 30,2004

On October 29th a bin Laden video was released to the US public. It showed a reasonably healthy bin Laden making more threats. Immediately the talking heads on TV starting froning about what effect the tape would have on the election, if any.

Most believed the tape would help Bush because if people are fearful they will keep Bush, hoping everything will at least stay the same or improve regarding terrorism. Today, Bush officials campaigning for him were hyping security issues and the War on Terror, alluding to bin Laden and his tape. Carl Rove, a key Bush advisor could hardly contain his glee that the tape was public and said it would help Bush in November.

Is it just a coincidence that the tape surfaced at the last minute?

It certainly appears bin Laden is aiding the re-selection of Bush. And why not? Bush has been his ally since the War on Terror began.

Bush said he wanted bin Laden "dead or alive". When we had a chance to "get him" in Tora Bora and the months afterwards, Bush did not order US troops to go after him. They stopped at the border with Pakistan and left it up to Afghan tribal leaders and the Pakistani troops to do the job. If this was a real war, there would be nothing stopping us from "getting bin Laden".

Bin Laden must be thankful to Bush for keeping him safe.

The poppy crop in Afghanistan has flourished these past few years. Though many of Bush's advisors warned this would be a cash crop leading to more drugs and more money for terrorists Bush did not order the crop destroyed. Now bin Laden has an excellent supply of money based on drugs sold to the west. What irony.

Bin Laden must be appreciative of his new cash flow to continue the attacks on the west including the United States.

The Administration seized many Saudi funds related to terrorism but they have yet to stop the flow either in Saudi Arabia or the U.S. One wonders whether the association between senior Bush and the Saudi Royal family has something to do with it. Most Saudi family members are not involved in terrorism directly but some are and the money they can move to bin Laden must be considerable.

Bin Laden must be thankful to Bush for protecting the bin Laden family and its money in Saudi Arabia.

The Iraq War is a boon to terrorism. The war was started by lies from Bush and his NeoCons supporters who see war as good and better if there are millions of barrels of oil in the conquered country. Iraq is now a training ground for bin Laden followers, it helps recruit more terrorists and most importantly, helps bin Laden kill more Americans.

Bin Laden must marvel at the help Bush has given him for his jihad against the west. Bush has taken the fight to bin Laden and this has benefited both greatly.

The Bush administration's response to national security has been expensive but weak. We are no safer now than before. Yes, we have made it harder to fly but the ports are till unprotected and our borders have little oversight. Terrorists can now easily cross the border or enter seaports and leave behind few clues they are here.

Bin Laden must thank his Allah for Bush. Now he can very easily send his terrorists into the U.S.

People judge others by many things and behavior is one. What you do is more important than what you say. What Bush has done these past three years has shown he is an ally of bin Laden.

Bush and company's actions after 911 have been shameful treason. Since they are in power now, and in the future, it will be impossible to hold them accountable. Remember, evil will always hold sway for a time, but one day God will sweep away that evil including Bush and his supporters.

Let's await that day when they will be punished for the death, destruction and the evil they follow and preach.
