Political correctness has become a hiding place for those who are stupid to just be nice!
After all hasn't "unintentiional offence" caused trade disputes and war in the past?
In fact how many off us haven;t fallen foul of "unintentional offence" with a partner - sh*t I know I have! :)
We have had IRA bombings, the Red Brigade and the Bader Minehof groups and others all the way to 7/11 and the Glasgow Airport bomb.
The thing about terror attacks is that more often than not, something triggered them.
Whilst I grieve for the people involved in terror attack I also understand that there are such things as Agents Provocateurs and I still am unhappy that the FBI were unable to serve their subpoena on the banks and accountants in the North Tower (concerning the breaking EXXON/ ENRON scandal) because of the attack that day.
Convince me there was no coincidence and I will stand right beside you.
I am a scientist.
We have I ever said I am against the Jews?
Is this attempt to "categorise" me not a form of bigotry?
Incidently there is an expression "Insults are the last refuge of the ignorant", I clearly would not like to apply this to you.
But how do you feel others might interpret your statements?
The allegation was that the oil companies had been fraudulent in the results of geological surveys and effeectively lying about how much oil might be yeilded from places that they had options to drill. Some of the sites had been independently tested and shown to have no oil at all.
What this meant was the shares in those companies had been artificially inflated through fraud and sold off for huge margins. The allegations were made and the FBI started investigating.
The people involved were the usual suspects JP Morgan, Morgan Stanley Witter et al along with the heads of the oil industry. All who knew each other and belonged to the same fraternity at college (the skull and bones).
The ethos of this society is that the law does not apply to them and a "bonesman above any other" applies.
Bush Snr. (President and CEO of Sapata oil) was also the man who recruited Bin Laden when Bush was head of the CIA...
Strange that this attack was so sucessful when all the others were a bit of a pigs ear wouldn't you say? Almost as though it was conducted with military precision...

At the end of the day, all the players got what they wanted didn't they? The oil companies and the banks survived and a stock market crash of epic proportions was averted.
Bin Laden got the exposure that he wanted.
Bush Jnr got public support to invade Iraq, which is what he wanted
Bush Snr got to see his son finish the job in Iraq whilst securing a military foothols in the middle easrt, which is what he wanted...
the heart of most of our problems and we're left to nibble around the edges
