Al-Qaeda vs. Conspiracy

Last week Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad joined the 9/11 Truth Movement and ranted crazily about how the 9/11 attacks were probably some kind of U.S.-led conspiracy. Of course this kind of paranoid, faith-based nonsense is an insult to the intelligence of anyone with either critical thinking skills or a friend or relative whose last moments were spent suffocating under a pile of burning rubble, but who knew al-Qaeda would be so pissed off? In a recent audio tape posted online (clash of the technologies!), the terrorist group's deputy leader, Ayman al-Zawahiri (pictured here from his high school yearbook), accused Ahmadinejad of spreading the lie that Israel and the U.S. collaborated on 9/11 and assures the world that, no, it was just al-Qaeda. They've got a reputation to uphold after all. Of course, no murderous madman could be completely on the side of reason. Al-Zawahiri went on to claim that the U.S.-led invasion of Afghanistan was secretly negotiated with Iran's help. Apparently, every aspect of Bush's War on Some Terror is, in fact, and inside job. This should give Ron Paul a lot to think about. More details here.
