The fact that the evidence which is been presented is all circumstantial,
very simplistic in nature and collected by agencies who have failed in the
past. When I read the evidence, I have to ask myself why the USA was not on
a highlighted state of alert.
All from http://www.channel4.com/news.

Much of what's in this document is already in the public domain. That's not
to say it's not a strong circumstantial case for Osama bin Laden's guilt
based on what the police call the MO - the modus operandi - of his past crimes.

That "close associates were warned to return to Afghanistan by September 10th...
==+==
==+==
In effect, the government is asking MP's and public to take on trust what
evidence there is to directly link bin Laden to the attacks of September
11th because it comes from intelligence sources, which can't of course, be
verified. Which is why it comes with a candid health warning - that it
doesn't pretend to be evidence that will stand up in a court of law. How big
a stumbling block that will be in weeks to come, no one knows.

Charles Kennedy, who has seen all the evidence described it as "persuasive"
NOT conclusive.

It is relevant. It shows that our intelligence agencies are not fool proof.

Can you justify this in any way? I have seen no report which supports that.

Did I say you did?
Please provide a cite where I said the ingredients for current buns do not
include currents.
