    Mr. Greenwald,

    It is hard not to comment on 9/11, given that this is part of the text of your column.

    My own feeling is that 9/11 served as a pretext for all the abuses of the Bush administration which have followed. Bush has been able to essentially dismantle the American Constitution, and we all know that he thinks its '..just a god damn piece of paper..' anyway.

    Since we still do not know who the real perpetrators of 9/11 were, it would be difficult to understand their motives. The motives of Friedman and the neocons are much easier to discern. Endless war means endless money, and who doesn't love money?
