woah Final Fantasy 7 reminded me of 9/11

where the Shin-Ra(goverment) blew the pillar to make the plate fall on sector 7 and as the plate fell it showed the president in his tower watching, listening to opera, where was cheney on 9/11?

"blow the pillar and crush them, blame it on avalance, and naturally the shin-ra will come in fix things up, and be heroes"-president Shinra

2. I'm nearly done with X.
I really need to play this game-I keep hearing good things. Where's a good place to get it? I've not seen it anywhere.

4. The parallels are frightening.
Edited on Mon Aug-30-04 10:53 PM by Chovexani
I was just posting on this earlier in GD. Shinra = Halliburton. Corrupt energy company that made its money sucking the life out of the planet, war profiteering.

I've said it since 2000, President Shinra & Rufus are just like George HW and a young, smart version of Shrub. Remember what Rufus said when Cloud & Co. stormed Shinra HQ to save Aerith: something along the lines of "My father ruled the people with money but that costs too much, I'll rule the people with fear." Hell you can put names to all these bastards:

Condi = Scarlet
Rumsfeld = Heidegger
Powell = Reeve, the one guy with a conscience (but unlike Reeve, Powell was willing to sell his soul for the Company)

BTW, LOVE your sig pic. It's the startup screen on my Mac. :loveya:
