[QUOTE]Originally posted by First of Two: [QB] Has it ever occurred to you, way down deep in the dark crannies of your cerebral cortex, that I said "reviews _I_ found" because your reviews had already been posted, and I was looking on DIFFERENT sites? Just because the articles quoted are from the same source file does NOT mean that the URL's or the surrounding materials are the same, which is what I was getting at. If two people writing books/articles/webpages about the same topic both quote the same source, this to be EXPECTED, it is NOT bad research. It is the convergence of similar sets. The fact that the webpages drew from the same sources means virtually nil. The actual COMMENT on the pages, ABOUT the article abstract is what's relevant, NOT the abstract itself. For instance, you'll notice that the "serendipity" article LEAVES OUT the part of the review in the Irish Times that says: [QUOTE] "Less convincingly, they conjecture that the September 11th suicide attacks were the result of the failure of those negotiations." [/QUOTE]They also leave out this entire bit: [QUOTE]For the Taliban - assuming its leadership had advance knowledge of the suicide attacks - September 11th was a sort of pre-emptive strike. Brisard and Dasqui� claim a significant part of the Saudi royal family supports bin Laden. "Saudi Arabia has always protected bin Laden - or protected itself from him," says Brisard. He points out that attacks inside the kingdom targeted US interests, never the Saudis. Khalid bin Mahfouz is the former chairman of the kingdom's biggest bank, the National Commercial Bank, who, with 10 family members received Irish citizenship in December 1990. Brisard and Dasqui� call him "the banker of terror". The 73-year-old Mahfouz is now under house arrest in the Saudi resort of Taif, accused by the FBI and CIA of having diverted $2 billion to Islamic charities that helped bin Laden.[/QUOTE]I notice you make no mention of my second post. Good. That's the one I actually found a REVIEW in, after all. [/QB][/QUOTE]
