Please don't call it a war on terror, it is a war for
oil plain and simple. Quit deceiving the public,
please examine the following links that prove my
point.

Thank you!
If the CBS report by Dan Rather is accurate and Osama had indeed been admitted to the Pakistani military hospital on September 10, 2001, courtesy of America's ally, he was in all likelihood still in hospital in Rawalpindi on the 11th of September, when the attacks occurred.

In all probability, his whereabouts were known to US officials on the morning of September 12, when Secretary of State Colin Powell initiated negotiations with Pakistan, with a view to arresting and extraditing bin Laden.
The CIA knew Osama was at the American Hospital in Dubai. They visited him.
BUT
If the CIA had wanted to arrest Osama bin Laden prior to September 11, they could have done it then in Dubai.
But they would not have had a the "War on Terrorism" pretext for waging a major military operation in the Middle East and Central Asia.
