U.S. Lawmakers Continue To Perpetuate 9/11 Myth

Yeah, perpetuating the myth that 19 Arab hijackers managed to not only defeat the worlds most technologically advanced defence system, but suspend the laws of physics as well.

What would it matter if the Americans enclosed themselves within their own country? Obviously Mexico and Canada would be a lot safer.The "Iron Curtain" provided the USSR with the containment required and the USSR monitered traffic going both ways. Mexicans and Canadians have standards as well. Rather then fight the Americans on an issue they refuse to drop, Canada should set the standards. Their own border security (USA) could check out any American leaving that country before passing them on to Canadian security. The terrorists in the USA originated there and some actualy Americans themselves. Canadian troops should be brought back to defend our country and insure undesirable Americans cannot enter Canada. This would also save the taxpayer the cost of sending troops overseas and the price of arming our Customs & Immigration personal. Why should our troops be aiding and abetting a country who dosen't trust them. The "friendly fire" wasn't all that friendly.

Expect little from life and get more from it.

It doesn't matter what who says, when, where or to whom. There will always be the ignorant. It gets to me when I hear statements like that but, oh well, I guess it's something we're just going to have to live with and maybe we can find a way to use it to our advantage.

If Frank McKenna had been in the south of Texas, they might perhaps have listened to him, and understood, and remembered - assuming that they would catch his accent.

But maybe these things are all too much to expect from Bushland.

I guess it's something we're just going to have to live with and maybe we can find a way to use it to our advantage:

It's the Americans turf. If they don't want anyone else in or their own out, I don't begrudge them. They have the terrorists in Washinton and I would just as soon keep them away from us. The USA is becoming more like the USSR every day. People who enterd the USSR knew the differances from the free societies and behaved themselves accordingly. If you MUST go to the USA, then be prepared for the totaly different enviroment. The "Open Border" dissolved at the very day of 911. Americans blame Canada for their own border protection and refuse to accept that the problem originated within their borders. With the "Wall" they can no longer blame anyone else. That is, unless Canadian/Mexican contractors erected the wall(s).

Ya you're right! My remark about using it to our advantage was to imply that if they want to believe that terrorists come from Canada, let 'em. Fear of "Canadian terrorists" is not compatible with an NAU or allowing "free movement of people across borders".
Furthermore, prior to the requirements of a passport or "secure border crossing documents", the process of security at the international border lies with the country that is being entered. To blame Canada for a lapse in American border security is also maddening to me because no one gets inspected or interrogated by a Canadian official before leaving Canada. If Ahmed Rassam had made it to his destination and completed his mission, it would not have been the fault of Canadian security. Immigration laws? That's debatable too. Homegrown terrorist from Canada? That's the fault of US atrocities in the Middle East. So no matter which way you slice it. It ain't our fault!

Really, what do you expect from a bunch of ignorant rednecks who wolf down any garbage that is thrown their way by their government and media? In the final analysis, who gives a rats ass what they think?
