Terrorist Plot on LA Skyscraper

[RobDog888]

Just released in detail to the public, Al-Queda terrorists had planned to crash a plane into the US Bank skyscraper (tallest on the west coast at 73 stories). They gave detailed info how they were going to break into the cockpiut with shoe bombs. I remember having to remove our shoes at the security checkpoint when we went on a trip back in late 2003.

This is all just a plan by Bush to gain support for his wire tapping scandal. Even though, we should be allowed to know what is happening and not find out years later.

Rob, I like conspiracy theories too, but I don't buy them all. So you're saying that the story was invented to boost support for Bush? Perhaps collaborated with this one? http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/mid...st/4630054.stm

Sorry, but I'm reluctant on buying that.

[Shaggy Hiker]

You don't need to buy it, it is sufficient if you are willing to rent it for a few months. After that, you can forget about it, because we'll be on to something new.

[RobDog888]

No, I'm saying that they only felt they needed to release the info in order to gain support for Bush wire-tapping phones. Since it was foiled 2 years ago why didnt they tell us right after the fact?

Ah, ok. Well, that wouldn't be for the first time. These kind of things happen all time in politics.

[RobDog888]

Yes, and everybody can see right through him on this one.

[mendhak]

He could've chosen a city people actually cared about.

*runs and hides*

[cilu]

I think Rob cares about it. He lives there.

Hence the sarcastic post. You're catching on fast.

I think you need to get your bs propaganda straight. The left wing slant is that it's released now to garner support for extending the patriot act. Bush doesn't need support for the wire tapping. Even your buddy Slick Willy did that.

[RobDog888]

Oh, this just in.... Ulaan Baator is the next target said Bin Laden.

Bruce Willis must be turning in his grave...

[RobDog888]

Whos Slick Willy ? I couldnt find his member id?

Isnt Bruce willis still alive? Die Hard 5 or whatever its up to now.

[crptcblade]

I think that got passed for Indiana Jones 4. Who doesn't like a movie about the Nazis?

[RobDog888]

Probably anyone that still follows their beliefs.

Like this one.... ah me sweet Chicago...

Bush officially needs a FISA permission to tap conversations where at least one end of the line is in America. He does not need any permission to tap conversations abroad and is even aided by intelligence agencies from friendly nations(such as France ). The CIA can intercept a phonecall between me and a friend without asking anyone including local authorities. That makes it a non-issue to me, if they can tap me, they can tap you.

Whos Slick Willy ?

Bill Clinton, much reveared by demotivator

Like this one.... ah me sweet Chicago...

WTH is that thing in the middle? Wasn't there the last time I was in Chicago :P

Is that supposed to be Trump tower?

[mendhak]

That is the Fordham spire, proposed to be built, and that is an artist's rendition of it.

Why do I know this?

[cilu]

Bruce Willis must be turning in his grave...

Nah, I think he was the lonely vigilante that stopped the terrorists from crashing a plane into that LA tower. He stopped them before.

[RobDog888]

Got it.


Sure, let build a very tall building in Chicago so bin laden can have another good target. Let provoke him to attack us by building taller buildings in all our major cities. He will have a field day trying to decide which building to attack.

[nemaroller]

Bin Laden only attacks the 'evil financial institutions of the west'.

Neither the Sears Tower nor the proposed Fordham Spire contain either.

[sevenhalo]

I didn't realize the pentagon was an evil financial institution.

[nemaroller]

It was supposedly the puppet that worked in accord with the rich elite who control the financial institutions.

[sevenhalo]

America is the puppet that controls financial institutions.

[grilkip]

I love the Ali G. bit on terrorists with a guest I can't remember. Something like: "Why don't we say to the terrorists: look here is a building we were gonna demolish anyway, have your fun with it."

The Chicagoese finally realized the deep dish pizza is krap so they had to do something to one up New York.

[RobDog888]

They already did with being the windy city. Now if they had hot air there would be a joke in there.

[MasterBlaster]

[nemaroller]

The funny thing was Trump lambasted the Fordham Spire citing any tenant would be crazy to occupy one of the tallest buildings (terrorist target potential) - even though his tower will be the third tallest in Chicago once its completed - funny Yorker.

Developer Donald Trump, who is constructing a 92-floor, 1,360-foot skyscraper in Chicago for luxury condominium buyers, said Carley's proposed building would not be economically viable in the post-September 11 climate.

"Nobody is going to want to live in a building that's a target," he told the Chicago Sun-Times.

Carley countered that his skyscraper is in the same league as Trump's.

"I wonder where the insanity limit is. It must be just over 1,360 feet," he said, referring to Trump's building.

Yes thay know its stupid in this day and age to create such tempting targets for alqueda just as they wont live in it themselves. or if they do its not the penthouse.

[litlewiki]

did u guys watch the video abt the pentaon bombing the video i saw claims that it couldnot be a aircraft as it is not possible for an aircraft to fly few a feet above the ground and affect none!

abt buying the fact that bush making up stories to get publicity is nothing new .old habits i guess(remember wmd's in iraq,hugh what a bloody liar!)

[Shaggy Hiker]

Ah yes, the old conspiracy theory. Here's a thread on that very subject in this very forum:

By the way, I still think this conspiracy theory is one of the dumbest I have ever heard. At least the folks who talk about faking the moon landing have a valid reason why we would.
