"We now have to decide: Do we want to remain free, independent, strong, self-reliant? Or do we want to acquiesce to the politically correct global village nonsense that allows the leaders of the nations who harbor terrorists to have more say in our domestic policy than we do? ~ Henry Lamb | WorldNetDaily, Sept. 20, 2001

Backtrack. Don't forget this one if you missed it earlier:

Doing Business With The Enemy (CBS News) - previously aired

(CBS) Did it ever occur to you that when President Bush says, "Money is the lifeblood of terrorist operations," he's talking about your money -- and every other American's money?

Just about everyone with a 401(k) pension plan or mutual fund has money invested in companies that are doing business in so-called rogue states.

In other words, there are U.S. companies that are helping drive the economies of countries like Iran, Syria and Libya, all places that have sponsored terrorists. Correspondent Lesley Stahl reported on this story last January.

"The revenue that is generated from the work that these companies are doing, we believe, helps to underwrite and support terrorism," says William Thompson, the New York City comptroller who oversees the $80 billion in pension funds for all city workers.

He says he wants everyone with a retirement or investment portfolio to know what these companies are up to: "We're going to increase the public visibility on this issue until these companies change their practices."

He’s actually identified specific companies that have invested in these rogue countries, including Halliburton, Conoco-Phillips and General Electric. And he points out that New York's pension funds own nearly $1 billion worth of stock in these three Fortune 500 companies, which have operations in Iran and Syria.

And lest there be any doubt, any country that consciously harbors terrorist money should be treated as harshly as any nation that harbors terrorists." - Center For Freedom and Prosperity [another one of those conservative economic "tax reform" policy crank tanks]

I'm sure MSNBC's Alex Witt will get straight to the bottom of it all. Yes siree bub.
