People forget very fast. Hence the need for a "constant refresh", not all
that different from the constant refresh signals RAM needs to properly
"operate". Propaganda has a bit to do with this tape in the sense that it
instills greater hatred for the targeted group; in this case, Al-Qaeda. I
understand that they haven't mentioned names, but the relationship is
suggested and you damn well know it.

Otherwise, people go about their daily business. I do agree with FWB that
while much effort and money is going into stopping terrorist activities, much
COULD be done to help the less fortunate around the world. While we still
wait for results to come from this whole fiasco, consider that the results from
helping others would be immediate. I'm not suggesting that we stop trying;
just that we help save others NOW.

Just a thought.[/quote:d5a65]

Of course the tape is going to instill greater hatred towards Al-Qaeda... but FWB and his conspiracy theory suggests that it was made by our government as propaganda... And yes we forget very fast... but Sept 11th was like Pearl Harbor... a day that will live in infamy... most of us who lived through it will never forget about what happened that day... and where we were when it happened... Those who lived through pearl harbor never forgot... This tape is not fabricated propaganda made by our or someone elses government... Yes tapes can be edited... we all know that... but the facts point out that this tape was not fabricated... And personally I and i'm sure many others would rather believe the facts and the evidence and not some crazy freak conspiracy theorist on the AA.com forums...
