[lbo-talk] PTECH, 9/11, and USA-SAUDI TERROR

[Joseph Wanzala]

the ability of states, especially militarist states, to harness scientific 
brainpower has never been shown to be correlated to the wisdom of their 
political or strategic choices. The Third Reich, after all, had some of the 
world's best brains at its disposal.

And with all that fantabulous computer power behind them, why, I wonder, 
does the exec committee of the ruling class do such idiotic things as Iraq?

Artficial intelligence does no good when coupled with human stupidity.

It's a little difficult to comprehend why the gang that was supposedly able 
to engineer the brilliant 9/11 hoax can't understand the simplest thing 
about a Middle Eastern country.
