One has to wonder where the freak you were on 9-11. No sarcasm.
I find it unbelievable that the Taliban wanted bombed into oblivion by the US B-52s. Also, it's quite clear that some parts of the Taliban didn't want to side with OBL. Several years ago there was an attempt to kill him and over a hundred people died. It may have been Iran, it may have been Russia, it may have been the US trying to get him. But it may well have been anti-OBL Taliban involved. Moreover, it is not apparent than any of the people who pulled off 9-11 were directly deployed from OBL's groups in Afghanistan.
