Before I make a personal comment on these quotes, can you please tell me where you sourced them from?

These quotes came directly from here..

http://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/authors/a/ariel_sharon.htm l

But I have seem them, and similar ones on all manner of sites from Rense.com to Fox on line over the last 4 years or so.

I think the biggest mistake people make when assessing the ME problem, is that they assume they understand whats happening and what its all about. The problem is deep and complex, embroiled in religous fundamentalism on both sides of the fence (or the wall) IMO there is not a solution to the problem. Israel exists in an almost unique Orwellian state of perpetual war, whereby deliberate provocation of the Palestinian people - see Maanis example above - ensures there is always a terrorist threat from Hamas and similar groups. For as long as that threat remains, the US will continue to fund Israels weapons programs in order to preserve the one US friendly democracy in the ME. It's a viscous circle, and it is to Israels distinct advantage that the war continues. Israeli leaders such as Yitsak Rabin, who made real progress towards peace, and engaged the respect of both his own people ans that of the Palestinians, was murdered by right wing Jewish extremists, angry at the concessions made to Arafat. The only people who want peace are the innocent people of Israel and Palestine. Their leaders work to a different and darker agenda.

IMO.

Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy!

That in itself should clearly indicate (to either of you) that your position may be flawed.

It is true that Sharon seems to have (at least partially) "turned over a new leaf" in some regards.  But he ultimately has only himself to blame for the current mess that the Palestinian-Israeli situation is.

Peace.

trust me I remember.  he went know where near the mosques, he just went on the temple mount, the third holiest site in Islam, but the holiest site in Judaism, the site of Judaisms two destroyed Temples (thus Temple Mount).  He did not provoke at all, it was merely and excuse.  To say that this caused the intifada is ridiculous.  The intidada started after Arafat turned down Ehud Barak's offer a Palestiniant state on 100% of Gaza and 95% of the West Bank.

Maani:

Maybe he has partially turned over a new leaf (now that Arafat is no longer with us!). However, I believe he is very much a war-monger and yes - I agree that he does only have himself to blame for the current Palestinian Israeli situation.

I studied Arab Israeli politics at University some years back and have always had an interest in the Middle Eastern situation. I could and can see arguments for both sides. However, I do not understand why it is so hard to commit to a peace treaty. The only reason apart from those already mentioned in this forum is that "other interested parties" are politically involved to ensure that peace is forstalled - for reasons known only to themselves and as yet unclear to us the observers. That Sharon is a "puppet" to these "parties" is IMO evident, by his "eratic" decision making as regards to committing to a workable peace plan.

I do not condone the blood-shed that occurs on a regular basis between the Israelis and Palestinians. I think they can co-habit peacefully if given a chance. It is their leaders and their political supporters, who are responsible for the continued tensions between both sides.  

Cheers

I never claimed they are, although its worth pointing out that he was democratically elected to power by the Israeli people.

I think he's done a pretty good job.  of course I don't know hows he's handles anythign other than the arab-israeli conflict

If youre being sarcastic Joren, then you are screwed-up in the head and I don't think it's funny!

No, I was not being sarcasting! It's the truth! I was almost convinced that the Pentagon was not hit by a Boeing. But after what you said, I got confused... now I don't know what to believe...  That's it.

I'm feeling really sorry for you, Mark  and I should have said that before... we're a bit too obsessed at "solving the mystery" I guess, although I don't think we are able to solve it...

This confirms all I read and heard about 9/11. There is an interesting, well researched book by a german author.Mathias Bröcker: 'Verschwörungen, Verschwörungstheorien und die Geheimnisse des 11.9' I don't know if it is translated.

Here is a teaser in german with the link to all his sources :

Alle Quellen, die Mathias Bröckers für sein Buch benutzt hat, finden Sie hier. (links, a lot of them in English)

"Als am 7.12.1941 wie aus heiterem Himmel Flugzeuge Pearl Harbor angriffen, war Amerika entrüstet über die Heimtücke der Japaner. Heute sagen Historiker: Präsident Roosevelt wusste im Vorhinein von dem Angriff, hatte ihn sogar provoziert. Roosevelt wollte in den 2. Weltkrieg eintreten. 88 % der US-Bevölkerung waren bis Pearl Harbor dagegen.

Als am 11.9.2001 wie aus heiterem Himmel Flugzeuge das World Trade Center und das Pentagon angriffen, waren Amerika und die Welt entsetzt über die Heimtücke dieses Anschlags. Und sofort standen die Täter und der Feind fest: Osama Bin Laden und seine islamistische Al Quaida. George W. Bush verkündete den Weltkrieg gegen den "internationalen Terrorismus", für den es vorher kaum Unterstützung gegeben hätte. Inzwischen mehren sich die Indizien: Die US-Regierung war über den Angriff vorinformiert.

Mathias Bröckers, Wissenschaftsautor, Journalist und langjähriger Kultur-Chef der "taz", misstraute von Anfang an dem einstimmigen Chor der Medien. Als wären sie gleichgeschaltet, machen sich selbst renommierteste Blätter zum Sprachrohr des Weißen Hauses.

Auf der Suche nach mehr und alternativen Informationen floh Bröckers ins Internet und machte dort mit Hilfe der Suchmaschine ungeahnte Entdeckungen, die er über Monate im Online-Magazin "telepolis" zu einer kontroversen Dokumentation verarbeitete, die millionenfach angeklickt wurde und jetzt - bedeutend erweitert und vertieft - bei Zweitausendeins als Buch erscheint.

Es dokumentiert: Der 11.9. ist nicht nur das Datum eines entsetzlichen Massenmordes, sondern auch Kristallisationspunkt bizarrer Ungereimtheiten, fantastischer Widersprüche, verschwiegener Hintergründe und strategischer Geheimaktionen. Ist seit dem 11.9. nichts mehr so, wie es einmal war? Es war vorher schon zu vieles ganz anders ...

Ein paar Beispiele? Großvater Prescott Bush finanzierte und unterstützte Hitler, den die US-Armee dann beseitigen half. Vater George Bush bewaffnete als CIA-Chef Saddam Hussein, gegen den er dann als US-Präsident in den Golfkrieg zog. Sohn George W. Bush erhielt das Geld für seine erste Ölfirma vom Vermögensverwalter eben jener Firma, deren Sproß Osama er jetzt jagt: Bin Laden. Gouverneur Jeb Bush ließ die Wählerliste in Florida manipulieren und verhalf so seinem Bruder George W. Bush zu den entscheidenden Stimmen für das Präsidentenamt.

Osama Bin Laden ist ein Produkt der US-Geheimdienste, aufgebaut für den Terrorismus gegen die Sowjetunion. General Mahmud Ahmed, Chef des pakistanischen Geheimdienstes ISI, der mit der CIA kooperiert, ließ im Juli 2001 nicht nur 100.000$ an den "Terrorpiloten" Mohammed Atta überweisen, auch hielt sich Ahmed vom 4.-15.9. offiziell in den USA auf - zu "Gesprächen über die Taliban". Am 11.9. frühstückte er auf dem Capitol Hill mit zwei Vorsitzenden des Ausschusses für die US-Geheimdienste.

Obwohl dem Oberkommando der US-Luftwaffe die simultane Entführung von vier Flugzeugen bekannt war, die sich alle absoluten "no fly areas" näherten, dauerte es 75 Minuten, bevor die Abfangjäger aufstiegen - zu spät.

Warum tat George W. Bush zunächst so, als habe er während eines Schulbesuchs von dem Anschlag erfahren? Wenn er, wie sich später herausstellte, schon eine Stunde zuvor informiert worden war, warum tagten dann zu diesem Zeitpunkt nicht schon sämtliche Krisenstäbe?

Bröckers ist hochakribisch. Denn Ungereimtheiten in der offiziellen Tatversion gibt es viele:

Warum werden die Daten des Funkverkehrs und der Flugrekorder nicht veröffentlicht? Warum lagen Wrackteile der Pennsylvania-Maschine über viele Meilen weit verstreut? Ist sie doch abgeschossen worden?

Warum trat der Top-Bin-Laden-Fahnder der USA, John O'Neill, 8 Wochen vor dem Anschlag im Juli 2001 zurück? Welche direkten Geschäfte machten die Familien Bush und Bin Laden miteinander? Welche Geschäftsinteressen hat die Firma Halliburton des Vizepräsidenten Cheney bei Pipeline-Projektierungen in Afghanistan?

Warum wurden bis Juli 2001 Geheimverhandlungen mit dem Taliban-Regime über den Bau dieser Pipeline geführt? Warum wurden die FBI-Untersuchungen gegen verdächtige Flugschüler von oben gestoppt?

Warum setzten Bush und Cheney Oppositionsführer Daschle unter Druck, "tiefergehende Untersuchungen" des 11.9. durch den US-Kongress zu verhindern?

Bröckers ist ein investigativer Konspirologe. Er zeigt mit diesem Buch: Die allgemein akzeptierte Tatversion vom 11.9. ist eine mit Bedacht inszenierte Verschwörungstheorie, die falsche Spuren legt.

"Nach der größten Polizeifahndung aller Zeiten", resümiert Bröckers, "liegen gegen den angeblichen Chefplaner Osama Bin Laden und seine Al Quaida-Bande, knapp ein Jahr nach den Anschlägen, so viele Beweise vor, wie wenige Stunden danach: praktisch keine."

Bröckers fragt, wer die faktischen Nutznießer der Terroranschläge sind, und er bringt andere notorisch Verdächtige ins Spiel. Nicht um seinerseits Verschwörungstheorien in die Welt zu setzen, sondern um das Verschwörungsdenken als skeptische Wissenschaft fruchtbar zu machen. Denn: "Ohne angemessene Verschwörungstheorien lässt sich unsere hochgradig komplexe und konspirative Welt gar nicht mehr verstehen."

Mathias Bröckers "Verschwörungen, Verschwörungstheorien und die Geheimnisse des 11.9."

Mit einem Interview mit dem Ex-Staatssekretär im Verteidigungsministerium Andreas von Bülow und einem Schaltplan der Verschwörungen von G. Seyfried. 371 Seiten. Broschur.

Alle Quellen, die Mathias Bröckers für sein Buch benutzt hat, finden Sie hier.

Das vollständige Inhaltsverzeichnis finden Sie hier als Adobe Acrobat (PDF) Datei (356 KB).

Auslieferung nur in Deutschland, nach Österreich und in die Schweiz.
