Here's two quotes, do you think they could be from the same person? Answer below.
“Halliburton is not a "company" doing business in Iraq. It is a WAR PROFITEER, bilking millions from the pockets of average Americans. In past wars they would have been arrested — or worse.”
"This war in Iraq makes millions of dollars for big corporations, either weapons manufacturers or those working in the reconstruction, such as Halliburton and its sister companies. . . It is crystal clear who benefits from igniting the fire of this war and this bloodshed."
Can you tell these two quotes apart? Neither can I.
The first is Michael Morre from "Heads Up...from Michael Moore" made on 14 April 2004. The second is from none other than Osama Bin Laden, himself. It is an English translation by MEMRI of a statement made 15 April 2004.
What do you make of this? I just want to say one thing. It wouldn't matter if it wasn't central to the worldview espoused by each of these men, the view that America is the Great Satan. You tell me America. Are you the Great Satan?
