I haven't seen this mentioned in CT circles, so I thought I'd give the tinfoil brigade a helping hand. This story is paranoia on a platter for them. It involves:

A man of Mideastern descent named Abdul Tawala Ibn Ali Alishtari

Who's been a substantial contributor to Republican causes

Who's been named by Republican leaders to various business and political councils

Who was named to the "White House Business Advisory Committee" in 2003

Who's had businesses in the U.S. and abroad that are security-related

Who has demonstrated a product for the U.S. Army and who has sought U.S. government contracts

And who is now under indictment for attempting to help finance terrorist training in Afghanistan! More here. (http://www.talkingpointsmemo.com/archives/012526.php)


If the conspiracists don't run with this, I will lose all respect for them. :rolleyes:

I dunno. It doesn't sound quite silly enough for the conspiracy folks. Could we work in some anti-gravity beams or something like that?

As this happened more than twenty minutes after the 9/11 attacks and has generated no panicked quotes or amateur video, I expect them to ignore it.

Where is the video?

... No video?

How do you expect CT's to take notice?

... Oh, I see LL already covered that.

Well, maybe no video, but this is damning evidence, I think.

Yeah, but he's not Jewish or a member of the Bohemian Grove so it can't be linked to 9/11. Them evil Jooooo's did it, fact!
