I do read your links and I read the full 22 pages. If you want me to be specific then ask specific questions to prove it. The sanctions are political in nature, they are imposed to make out that Iran is being non-compliant and awkward. Israel isn't even a member of that treaty and nobody bats an eyelid. I know what the IAEA is btw.

I could answer quite easily by showing swathes of info amassed before 9/11 on the upcoming threat. There are many who have stated that quite clearly. There were literally hundreds of credible warnings and also mentions of KSM. Why was he not mentioned on 9/11? He was known to be the sidekick of OBL long before.

I agree that Obama isn't a wizard who knows what the military guys do but this war has been dragging on, I believe, because they want it to. 2009 has been a bad year for casualties (the worst since 2002) but, in relative terms, it's a war that hasn't taken many lives for a huge international operation. The profits are still rolling in.
