do you believe in such things like the secrets of fatima? i've read a lot of similar stories and they exist between some religious people from different religions.i think people like to associate religion with miracles and their strong desire to have a supernatural proof leads them to allucinate things.we should care about our present to put a step in the future.propheties are lies even they can be true.

I know the "secrets" of Fatima exist, but don't think they are prophetic at all, nor do i think there was anything supernatural involved in the whole story.

i believe that 9/11 was planned by the usa government.

cause,bush governmet wanted to justıfy theirselves in order to occupy afghanistan."they attacked and we must attack their"(in order to persuade usa natıon and world)bush gowernment want to manage all middle east for petroil.we say "big middle east proje".usa economy'll exhaust one day.

maybe next country iran.the excuse is nuclear energy.

but i do not support definitely taliban,el kaide…they are terrorist.

why Afghanistan? It doesn't really have anything the US needs.If the whole attack on9/11 was planned by the US, why not just blame it on Iraq or Iran and skip having to go to war in afghanistan?

Hi,gkissİ had not said “hi” to you….Smile 1.in Afganistan,acording to researchs there are billion barrel petroil and gas naturel..2.anyway,usa got ıraq and iran to fight 1980s  before Afganistan.  in iran regime changed and a government that usa do not want came into power.  Usa approached with ıraq.usa helped to  produce chemical weopon to ıraq.  (2000s usa said “in ıraq,there are chemicel weopon.we must attack for our safety)  İn 1980,iran and ıraq fighted.firstly,for taking a land back.  But then they bombed each other for their’ petroil pits  Usa and europe was needing to these petroil pites and so usa joined to war as active….   Thıs plan is not new…firstly,he did not start from afghanistan

hi nil,

 

Afghanistan's oil and natural gas reserves are unproven and even if likely, nothing is being produced yet. Seems like it would be more worthwhile to take on a country with proven reserves and production capability, no? Again, why not just blame 9/11 on Iraq, Iran, the Saudi's etc. 

 

but assume that the american government did plan 9/11, as you think. Why 4 planes? wouldn't one or two have been sufficient excuse to attack the Taliban? Or are you a no-planer, too?

ok,they exist but i don't think those people saw anything.

what i'm sure about is that we saw the 11 september attacks without seeing the real attackers.
