For This book is dedicated to the victims of 9/11—the 3000, who lost the most part critics of the American empire on the left have also their lives in the United States and the thousands upon thousands approved the official story of 9/11 and the rationale behind the war who died and continue to die in Afghanistan, Iraq and Pakistan— and occupation of Afghanistan. and the truth seekers, who are trying to expose the real culprits For the first time in the history of nation-states, the occupation of a behind the most horrible crime of our age. sovereign state has been globally accepted as fully legitimate. The silence and assumed legitimacy of the U.S. occupation of Afghanistan are directly proportional to the Taliban‘s presumed illegitimacy and the official story of 9/11. Many researchers are exposing the truth behind the official story. However, there is hardly anyone willing to unearth the very foundations of the Taliban‘s presumed illegitimacy. The co-opted media and other vested interests played a pivotal role in indoctrinating minds which now consider the occupation of Afghanistan as a benevolent exercise. In fact, it is far worse than the Soviet occupation, which was, at least, reviewed and condemned at the United Nations on almost a monthly basis. Today, we are witnessing a strange paradox. While support for Bush‘s War in Iraq is ebbing away due to relentless pressure by the many anti-war movements, the war goes on in Afghanistan without any meaningful criticism from any quarter. Those, who criticize the voluminous lies and deceptions regarding the Iraq war, are proving themselves to be unwitting victims of much bigger lies with regards to the war of aggression on Afghanistan. Independent researchers challenge the official story of 9/11, but hardly anyone attempts to connect the dots to see that the bloody drama of 9/11 was staged in order to create a pretext for invading Afghanistan. Like the lies about Saddam‘s Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD), 9/11 was used to justify the invasion of Afghanistan. The lies about Iraq‘s WMD and the official story of 9/11 are mere ruses used to wage wars which were planned well 5 in advance. Taliban was seriously mistaken and the overthrow of their regime unjustified.‖ In a public introductory letter about his book, As thou Unfortunately, despite many researchers drawing the Goest by the Way, A.S. Adler writes: ―[the Taliban] appear to have conclusion that 9/11 was an ―inside job,‖ there is hardly any been what they claimed to be: carefully observant Moslems with move to show that 9/11 was a small part of a bigger plan. no interest in attacking the US or in harboring those who would Analysts are studying facts surrounding the mysterious collapse commit such acts.

However, they ignore that the why proceeding under Moslem law for any accused before that person 9/11 aspect is just as important as the how. could be turned over for punishment. Our response to them— Invasion of Afghanistan was the first military step towards essentially a combination of threats and bribes—was as likely to institutionalizing the war against a faith based on praxis, rather succeed with them as using the same techniques to try to get them than theoretical theological formulations.
