They don't know if it's linked or not yet.

I'm only reporting what Today FM said... (the link to bin Laden thing)... don't shoot the messenger!

The CNN URL was an afterthought...

As it turned out the guy was a Craotian passprt holder, so I assume he was Croatian. If so, and given that countries recent history and political slant, he was defenitly not a terrorist. It sounded a little twee for a terrorist attack anyway, in light of the wtc.

No doubt you'll be explaining to the victim's families that their deaths were 'twee' because a lot more people died in a seperate incident last month then?? :rolleyes:

I think this tragedy shows us that life has not gone on since september 11.
10 dead and the incident is given 30seconds on CNN's daily round up.

I'm sure that when the US endures its next high school killing spree that the authorities will be looking into claims that the attackers may have been inspired by Osama bin Laden...

i think the hi jackers might of been influenced by violent computer games,they seem to have spent a good deal of their time playing realistic flight simulations.Obviously their grasp of reality and fantasy became blurred.
I think we should sue microsoft.:rolleyes:
