[alicebot-aiethics] FWD: War business

[Richard Wallace]

This is OT, but I thought I would post it here because Pakaporn helped to create the idea of ALICE.  It was she who first suggested to me, in 1992, that I develop a "robot to keep old people company."

Dear Rich
I have heard that the tragedy in NY on Sept 11 was initiated by the CIA and
Bush government . 
Here are the reasons :
1.	To turn away Americans’ attention from  the  economic crisis  in the
US during   Bush government.
2.	To promote the sale of war weapons which are the major  income  of
the US government ( and Bush party will have lot of money to  support
themselves  in the next election)
3.	To create the scapegoat (Bin Laden) in order to justify the attacks
all over the world, and the weapon market will be booming (as seen in the
stock market today, NASDAQ and Down Jones, the shares of the companies that
sell weapons and chemical weapons belong  to US, UK, France, are the
highest while others are falling down).
4.	To seize oil resources in the middle east, (in order to control the
world’s oil price) 
 It is sure that the US will attack Iraq again together with Afkganistan,
and  people who claim for real justice  and do not  own any media will be
called terrorists .  War will spread all over the world , million of
innocent people will have to suffer only for  war weapons  promotion and
oil. 
	Do  Americans people  aware of this facts ? 
	I think the only way to stop the war that the American government is
now  waging  all over  the world’s communities  is the American citizens
themselves, like Vietnam,  if more people say no to war then may be  somehow
we can have a safe place for our children. 
	Can you do anything to help ?
