Well I was looking for Allah Akbar written in Arabic using Unicode. I stumbled across Al Jazeera's English site. Looking around I found a page about the occupation of Iraq. There's a page about the US players, and Dick Cheney's caught my eye:

As a congressman in the 1980s, he backed US funding and military help for the contra rebels in Nicaragua, Unita in Angola, and mujahidiin in Afghanistan.

Mujahidiin....that sounds familiar. Ah, Mujahideen! Isn't that the group of fighters Osama bin Laden started out with? That seems to back up the History Channel's Targeted: Osama Bin Laden. That the US initially funded Osama bin Laden, and once you have some money it isn't as difficult to start making it. This article at the Centre for Research on Globalization and some of my reading of Cooperative Research's Complete 9/11 Timeline say the same thing.

Al Jazeera did paint Saddam in a rosy picture though.

Notwithstanding his dictatorial practices, Saddam Hussein modernised his country-developing industries, nationalising the Iraqi oil company, leading the national campaign for the eradication of illiteracy and effecting a revolution in energy industries and public services.

So I guess to get the dirt on our guys you go to their media, and to get the dirt on their guys you go to our media. Now it's disturbing when the data from our media about our guys match the data they have on them, and it's not something you want to see. Unless all of these sources are unreliable, and belong in the conspiracy bin. One thing is certain, we don't have Osama. Which begs to ask why?
