    Not that I think that there's anything here, but before one assumes that something like this would be dismissed out of hand, one should aquaint one's self with the history of Operation Northwoods which was proposed by the Joint Chief's of Staff during the Kennedy presidency as a way to generate public support for invading Cuba by staging attacks on US citizens, among other options.

    The clock is ticking.

    Not to dimiss the possibility of future terrorists attacks, but this seemed just a tad bit far fetched. Wouldn't someone like to wait until the Iranians actually had a bomb?

    Granted Iraq got blamed for 9-11 though and I don't think the Iraqi Republican Guard was flying the jets into the towers.

    Still, I do not think German guy is the next Nostrodamus.

    That's because this supposed great country we live in is half full of people who are just plain ignorant and/or dumb. It amazes me when I see polls asking Americans if they believe Iraq was behind 9/11 and over 40% reply they think it was. Yet, they have absolutely no basis or sound evidence to base their judgement on. I don't know why a lot of Americans are so naive or stupid. They just don't know any better. It really is a shame. It's pathetic. But, their listening to the government spew propaganda that they cannot even reinforce with evidence. The government didn't come out and say anything about Iraq being behind 9/11 but they tried to spin it that way by establishing that connection all so they could make the Iraq war look more justified. Well...it worked apparently because about half of Americans bought into that crap and still do.

    We really shouldn’t mess around with this ~ we need immediate presumptive action.

    My fart could kill a lot of people. What are you gonna do to presumptively and preemptively combat me and people like me?

    Answer: Give us all enemas.


    I don't know if that self-deprecating statement was a good joke or not? I thought it was kind of funny myself. I dunno. :D
