its a very good read, theres a lot of predictions made that ended up happening so it got a real eeriness factor to it. also it contains the first 9/11 meme.

    Not to belittle the signifigance of these events, but you do realize that this means a whole slew of "anti terrorist" and probably "anti violence" laws will be passed through congress.

    Any "anti terrorist" laws will be given almost a blank check to do what is necessary. I'd be surprised if in 6 months you'll be able to make a domestic call without it being monitored.

    That's the way terrorism works. It's not the attack that hurts most people. A couple of hundred people die -- every death is tragic, but the truth is the real tragedy will be the loss of freedoms for the survivors.

      They were pretty close, but the real tragedy was that all of this was allowed to happen so a million more could be killed, some American fossil fuel companies could capture a new part of the world, and America could maintain imperialist dominance over a region that is halfway across the globe.
