“So one may almost say that the theory of universal suffrage assumes that the Average Citizen is an active, instructed, intelligent ruler of his country. The facts contradict this assumption.”
—James Bryce (1909, 35)

Well, you know why the Saudis picked 911 to crash the planes? It was their crisis call to BushCo...to let them know their fields were starting to crash and it was time for the US to start working the plan to get into Iraq, secure the oil fields and start pumping it over to KSA.
Or...maybe it was just some crazy Talibans bored with playing around in caves. Gosh...the Taliban...remember them...seems like such a long time ago and they've pretty much fallen from the public discourse.
BTW...the above is just my guess.
umm...is 911 Arabic for an emergency call?
Well...when talking to BushCo...you have to speak clearly and in their native tongue...violence.
You mean the oilfields were crashing in 1993 too?
