But the "us" isn't always against the terrorists.

We all heard about how the Bush administration gave money to the Taliban because they had supposedly stopped opium production. Did you hear the allegations that they were trying to cut a deal with the Taliban for an oil pipeline, so they blocked FBI investigations into al-Qaida terrorism? FBI diirector John O'Neill resigned to protest this. You haven't heard any more about it from him because he died on September 11th.

According to Michael Moore, the bin Laden family helped finance Bush Jr's first oil company back in the 80s.

But I haven't yet heard of any strong ties between that family and Osama.
