IDK i think i got my first one in about 97
They had nothing to do with 9/11.
But I doubt you started to constantly look at it to see who messaged you.
I don't remember. I may of as it was for work and it was good to keep in contact with the team in the area.
Facebook only started about 2005. Society went downhill from there.
I recall when it was only college kids and you needed an .edu email to sign up, 2002 or 3 maybe?
The Chinese think 30 years ahead, not in 4 year election cycles.
I sat through that documentary and there was no argument against invading Afghanistan, in fact the complaint was that Bush jr's big talk did not match the commitment he made in terms of military resources. I listening to the news at the time and everything discussed in Moore's documentary was part of the news cycle. There was no doubt about Bin Laden's guilt. But you believe what you like.

No you are correct, 2004 though.
Consider the source. A failure at everything he's ever tried. The puke is desperate. He needs to be president to stay out of jail.Trump: US should take military action if Taliban don't return billions in equipment
"Never in history has a withdrawal from war been handled so badly or incompetently as the Biden Administration’s withdrawal from Afghanistan. In addition to the obvious, ALL EQUIPMENT should be demanded to be immediately returned to the United States, and that includes every penny of the $85 billion dollars in cost," Trump said in a statement.
"If it is not handed back, we should either go in with unequivocal Military force and get it, or at least bomb the hell out of it. Nobody ever thought such stupidity, as this feeble-brained withdrawal, was possible!" he added.
After the Afghan government fell to the Taliban, it was reported that billions in U.S. weaponry had been seized by the Taliban, including guns, cars and numerous aircraft. The aircraft are virtually useless without training, though their seizure likely gives the Taliban propaganda tools.
As of June 30, Afghan forces are believed to have had 211 aircrafts in their inventory that were supplied by the U.S. At least 46 of those aircrafts are now in Uzbekistan after Afghan troops used them to flee the Taliban.
“We don't have a complete picture, obviously, of where every article of defense materials has gone, but certainly a fair amount of it has fallen into the hands of the Taliban,” said White House national security adviser Jake Sullivan in an interview earlier this month. “And obviously, we don't have a sense that they are going to readily hand it over to us at the airport.”
GOP Reps. James Comer (Ky.) and Rep. Glenn Grothman (Wis.) — both members of the House Oversight and Reform Committee — sent a letter to Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin last week requesting information on the Pentagon's plans to recover these weapons.
“We are left wondering if the Biden Administration has a plan to prevent the Taliban from using our weapons against the U.S. or its allies, or selling them to foreign adversaries, like China, Russia, Iran, or North Korea,” the lawmakers wrote.
Trump: US should take military action if Taliban don’t return billions in equipment
Former President Trump on Monday said the U.S. should respond with “unequivocal Military force” if the Taliban refuse to return the billions of dollars worth of military equipment …
100% agree. But O so handy to keep in touch with friends and family interstate and over seas.
Im glad you gave it a watch. There's not much concrete proof that Bin Laden was responsible IMO, at least i haven't seen it. But either way was one person living in a country enough warrant to invade a sovereign country, costing many, many more lives than 9-11 did? Would of made much more sense to just put some spies on the ground and then kidnap him or just kill him. Similar to what the Israelis' do.
We've gone around this block before. I don't know of any country that would have just let the attack go unanswered. For 18 of those 20 years, we should not have been there.
95 or 96 here. A cell and a pager and and a $50 classified made me 30k a year in 1997, lol. Then, internet.
I had a pager, wore it on my hat...because I was fuckin dumb and it was the 90s.
it shouldn't of gone unanswered but Afghanistan didn't do it.
