Here's a great repository of archived documents:

US State Department

HEre's the text from the previously mentioned link jic it abends...

As late as 1998 the US was paying the salary of every single Taliban official in Afghanistan? Isn't that strange?



There is more oil and gas in the Caspian Sea area than in Saudi Arabia, but you need a pipeline through Afghanistan to get the oil out. Isn't that strange?



UNOCAL, a giant American Oil conglomerate, wanted to build a 1000 mile long pipeline from the Caspian Sea through Afghanistan to the Arabian Sea. Isn't that strange?



UNOCAL spent $10,000,000,000 on geological surveys for pipeline construction, and very nicely courted the Taliban for their support in allowing the construction to begin. Isn't that strange?



All of the leading Taliban officials were in Texas negotiating with UNOCAL in 1998. Isn't that strange?



1998-1999 the Taliban changed its mind and threw UNOCAL out of the country and awarded the pipeline project to a company from Argentina. Isn't that strange?



John Maresca VP of UNOCAL testified before Congress and said no pipeline until the Taliban was gone and a more friendly government was established. Isn't that strange?



1999-2000 The Taliban became the most evil people in the world. Isn't that strange?



Niaz Naik, a former Pakistani Foreign Secretary, was told by senior American officials in mid-July that military action against Afghanistan would go ahead by the middle of October. Isn't that strange?



9/11 WTC disaster.

Bush goes to war against Afghanistan even though none of the hijackers came from Afghanistan. Isn't that strange?



Bush blamed Bin Laden but has never offered any proof saying it’s a "secret". Isn't that strange?



Taliban offered to negotiate to turn over Bin Laden if we showed them some proof. We refused; we bombed. Isn't that strange?



Bush said: "This is not about nation building. It's about getting the terrorists." Isn't that strange?



We have a new government in Afghanistan. Isn't that strange?



The leader of that government formerly worked for UNOCAL. Isn't that strange?



Bush appoints a special envoy to represent the US to deal with that new government, who formerly was the "chief consultant to UNOCAL". Isn't that strange?



The Bush family acquired their wealth through oil? Isn't that strange?



Bush's Secretary of Interior was the President of an oil company before going to Washington. Isn't that strange?



George Bush Sr. now works with the "Carlysle Group" specializing in huge oil investments around the world. Isn't that strange?



Condoleezza Rice worked for Chevron before gong to Washington. Isn't that strange?



Chevron named one of its newest "supertankers" after Condoleezza. Isn't that strange?



Dick Cheney worked for the giant oil conglomerate Haliburton before becoming VP. Isn't that strange?



Haliburton gave Cheney $34 Million dollars as a farewell gift when he left Haliburton. Isn't that strange?



Haliburton is in the pipeline construction business. Isn't that strange?



There is $6 Trillion dollars worth of oil in the Caspian Sea area. Isn't that strange?



The US government quietly announces Jan 31, 2002 we will support the construction of the Trans-Afghanistan pipeline. Isn't that strange?



President Musharref (Pakistan), and Karrzai, (Afghanistan -Unocal) announce agreement to build proposed gas pipeline from Central Asia to Pakistan via Afghanistan.

So - I've been noticing more and more how completely stinky everything with post 9/11 America is. Well, at least everything that GWBush has the country doing. Here's a link that sums up how completely OIL stinky his administration and policies seem to be: http://www.mediamonitors.net/josephclifford2.html

I honestly can't remember whether I know what evidence exactly links all the Saudis who crashed the planes to Osama Bin Laden, but it is certainly odd that Saudi Arabia wouldn't be suspect...

Yada yada yada

Well, I'm gonna try out Blogger for a while. See if it helps to write down my activities with all of the projects that I have on-going. Here's a list of projects that are currently "in the works":

1) Mosaic ( C# )
2) NFL Predictor ( Java )
3) Image Filters ( C# )
4) Scrabble ( Java )
5) OPT - online gaming player tracker

I'm thinking of trying to make a blogger site, too. So let's see where that gets... :)
