Here's a whopper for you guys : Ben Laden is believed to have had a spy within the CIA and the FBI.
I usually like democracynow.org, their stories are sometimes way ahead of the curve but this time, I think they're being made a fool of.
Peter Lance is a respected journalist but his story doesn't make sense, he claims an Egyptian operative spied for Ben Laden, my problem is that Ben Laden was CIA, his relationship with the CIA dates back to the afghan war, Le Monde featured a story on october 2001 that a meeting took place in Dubaï in july 2001 at a hospital where Ben Laden was being treated, between him and a CIA local representative. Why would he need a spy ? They were obviously working together.
One more thing, I actually remember this Egyptian from right after 9/11, Ali Mohamed, he was named on several websites, including fromthewilderness.com, to show the shady relationship between the US intelligence community and the so-called Al Qaeda. So, he didn't need to spy, all he had to do is ask, he was allowed to go back and forth to Egypt after training in the US.
None of this makes sense.
This story looks like a plant for something, worth watching.

That is rubbish and again as usual the kind of manoeuver to distract attention from the main focus of the article in question.
If you agree on that the supposed spy (ali momo) asks questions and brings the responses back to benladen, then that is exactly what is called : Spying on behalf of someone. What is then wrong in naming a cat by his very name: cat!!!
You who lived so long in the midst of the islamo-arabists ideology and appreciate at a high level the arabistos's cultural way of thinking will always find a say at the very point where you should start reviewing and revising your positions, beliefs and put yourself in question!!!!

Midst of islamo-arabists ideology ? Maybe you should read a few posts on this forum before you provoke me or maybe just look at my alias.
We've had this conversation before, don't you remember ?
Ben Laden worked with the CIA, it's a fact admitted by both sides. So again, why would he need to spy on them ?
The islamists are an old demon awaken twice in the last 50 years, once for the afghan war and now to replace the communists to serve as a scarecrow.
If you're in love with the neocons, I guess we're not going to agree my amazigh friend, I loathe what they're about just as I loathe the islamists.
