Bush Threatens Iran With Nuclear Annihilation

January 15, 2008

Elaine Meinel Supkis

Bush goes to Saudi Arabia in order to spit out threats of starting WWIII with Iran. This is very serious and stupid, of course. I want to talk about the CIA, the history of how we barely avoided WWIII several times in the past and how dark ops works. Readers have asked me about Sibel Edmonds. A fellow writer online, Lawrence of Cyberia, a very interesting and rather mysterious person, one I have exchanged emails with in the past, is very suspicious of Sibel. I am many times more suspicious. I think she is a tool set into motion to make the 'conspiracy' community look stupid. And to distract people from looking at the real stuff, the things that are out in the open. Also, China's top military gives an interview that amuses me darkly.

Bush 'is planning nuclear strikes on Iran's secret sites'

The Bush administration is planning to use nuclear weapons against Iran, to prevent it acquiring its own atomic warheads, claims an investigative writer with high-level Pentagon and intelligence contacts.

President George W Bush is said to be so alarmed by the threat of Iran's hard-line leader, Mahmoud Ahmedinejad, that privately he refers to him as "the new Hitler", says Seymour Hersh, who broke the story of the Abu Ghraib Iraqi prisoner abuse scandal.

Some US military chiefs have unsuccessfully urged the White House to drop the nuclear option from its war plans, Hersh writes in The New Yorker magazine. The conviction that Mr Ahmedinejad would attack Israel or US forces in the Middle East, if Iran obtains atomic weapons, is what drives American planning for the destruction of Teheran's nuclear programme.
*snip*
This newspaper disclosed recently that senior Pentagon strategists are updating plans to strike Iran's nuclear sites with long-distance B2 bombers and submarine-launched missiles. And last week, the Sunday Telegraph reported a secret meeting at the Ministry of Defence where military chiefs and officials from Downing Street and the Foreign Office discussed the consequences of an American-led attack on Iran, and Britain's role in any such action.

The military option is opposed by London and other European capitals. But there are growing fears in No 10 and the Foreign Office that the British-led push for a diplomatic solution to the Iranian nuclear stand-off, will be swept aside by hawks in Washington. Hersh says that within the Bush administration, there are concerns that even a pummelling by conventional strikes, may not sufficiently damage Iran's buried nuclear plants.

Russia and China, when WWII and the Korean War ended, controlled not only over a quarter of the planet, both had nuclear weapons and Russia had a superior rocket program. The Cold War burst into a hot war periodically such as Vietnam, for example. During all this, we had direct confrontations with Russia and China in situations which could have easily triggered WWIII and nuclear destruction. During these various direct face downs such as the Berlin Wall crisis or the Cuban Missile crisis, the thing that stopped these situations from escalating was the very real fear, we would be annihilated if we escalated things.

My dad was directly involved in the decision making process of some of these big confrontations. With the Cuban Missile crisis, a military two seater jet flew him from Davis Monthan AFB to Washington, DC, to meet directly with President Kennedy to advise him about the photos of the missiles taken from a U2 spy plane. My father designed and built these cameras. On top of this, he was one of the top rocket experts in America since WWII. We were very excited when he left suddenly and so dramatically.

Being a junior spy, I did the usual eavesdropping on my mother as well as snooping around my father's office. It amuses me to see, at the Davis Monthan web page, a warning about leaving stuff in trash cans. I used to take my father's typewriter ribbons and unscroll it to decipher what was written, there being no spaces, of course. It was rather messy for I had to clean my hands afterwards. But it was fun and instructive.

Back to the Cuban Missile crisis: many people were fearful in the US during this time. None more than within the CIA. In the spook community, there was near panic and families prepared to leave their homes at various Ground Zeros, Tucson being very much a Ground Zero entity in my own case, and head to hidden survival points. We were not supposed to mention any of this to anyone outside of the Family, of course. Indeed, most CIA entities didn't tell their own children. I remember this is why I took up spying. Actually, it was the brat inside that caused the spying.

The main thing is, our elders were convinced the Russians would launch WWIII against us and were very scared. Unlike the propaganda about what cities would be hit in WWIII, they knew that Tucson was at the very top of the list as was Boulder, Colorado facilities as well as the sub construction base in Connecticut as well as Langley, Virginia. This is why the top spider holes for our military and spook complexes were deep caves in nearby mountains.

The rest of the human masses were to go about their business until there was that fatal flash and then annihilation. There were NO PLANS to evacuate ANY CITIES. Nor did anyone think of trying such a thing. Did President Kennedy say, 'We have 24 hours to evacuate all our major cities'? No. Of course not. But the rest of us who were connected to the CIA and the military's uppermost levels were anxiously waiting for the whispered orders to evacuate swiftly no matter what.

On top of all this, we had orders to flee homewards if many jets took off from DM AFB. Usually, at the end of the month, all the pilots who were out drinking all month long would suddenly want to fill up their flight schedules for the month by flying all at once in the last 5 days. So at the end of every month, there was a huge escalation in flights taking off which made it difficult to tell if there was an emergency. So we would count the number of flights to gage if it were a mass sortie. The mass sorties were to be in response to evacuating the base of all jets right before it gets blown up forever.

I used to play with the children of AF top officers and we were all aware of this rule of thumb. We all knew our fathers were ordered to NOT warn us of a nuclear war. But we also knew they would all break this rule at the last hour and give us time to flee to behind Mt. Rincon, the only safe haven in WWIII. Mt. Lemmon which was the biggest mountain, was not a good place since the government decided to locate our own nuclear missiles around Oracle Junction. I noted the magical name when I was only a child.

So the only exit was via Seven Falls which was a small waterfall to the east of Tucson where Mt. Lemmon and Rincon Montain came together in this saddle. All the top people in Tucson who had power and connections to the upper levels of government in Washington lived as close as possible to that point. Indeed, guess what?

My father moved us the closest when I was 13 years old, right after Kennedy was assassinated. He figured, the previous place was too close to Tucson even though, when we built the house, it was far from Tucson. It wasn't close enough for us kids to run on foot to safety. By 1963, I was a very good long distance runner and during the sixties, my brothers were on the bike racing teams of their schools and we all did this so we could take off like bullets in a nuclear war. I even practiced running barefoot in the desert for this purpose.

Meanwhile, Americans were told that everything was under control and they were perfectly protected by our military! HAHAHA. Right! The complete failure of our entire military system on 9/11 tells us two things:

1. The military doesn't protect America at all.

2. Our rulers want us attacked because they can then attack any target they wish so the temptation to allow attacks on major cities is huge.

I subscribe to both points, by the way. About 9/11: the government was overjoyed the WTC was attacked. No, they did not blow up the two WTC buildings. That collapse totally shocked them. What shocked them more was the attack on the Pentagon, they thought it would take out the Capitol building, not the Pentagon itself. This is why Rumsfeld did NOT evacuate his office but CHENEY ran to his own bomb shelter. The black ops CIA arm launched the anthrax attack soon afterwards and killed, as the first victim, the poor photo editor of the Sun who OKed the Jenna Drunk Photos. Note that no one ever mentions the anthrax attacks which were used to rush though, without reading, the odious Patriot Act.

So here we are, 60 years of Cold War hysteria, now focused on Iran. Time to look at the history of CENTCOM, our Eye of the Pyramid focused on Iran since its inception:

United States Central Command (USCENTCOM) was established January 1, 1983. As its name implies, USCENTCOM covers the "central" area of the globe located between the European and Pacific Commands. When the hostage crisis in Iran and the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan underlined the need to strengthen U.S. interests in the region, President Jimmy Carter established the Rapid Deployment Joint Task Force (RDJTF) in March 1980.

To provide a stronger, more lasting solution in the region, President Ronald Reagan took steps to transform the RDJTF into a permanent unified command over a two-year period. The first step was to make the RDJTF independent of U.S. Readiness Command, followed by the activation of USCENTCOM in January 1983. Overcoming skeptical perceptions that the command was still an RDJTF in all but name, designed to support a Cold War strategy, took time. The Iran-Iraq war clearly underlined the growing tensions in the region, and developments such as Iranian mining operations in the Persian Gulf led to USCENTCOM’s first combat operations.

By late 1988, the regional strategy still largely focused on the potential threat of a massive Soviet invasion of Iran. The new USCENTCOM Commander-in-Chief, General H. Norman Schwarzkopf, was convinced that the changing international climate made this scenario far less likely. He began to focus his attention on the possible emergence of a new regional threat--Iraq’s Saddam Hussein--and translated these concerns into the summer 1990 command post exercise Internal Look. There was an eerie similarity between the exercise scripts and the real-world movement of Iraqi forces which culminated in Iraq’s invasion of Kuwait during the final days of the exercise. U.S. President George Bush responded quickly. A timely deployment of forces and the formation of a coalition deterred Iraq from invading Saudi Arabia, and the command began to focus on the liberation of Kuwait.

The buildup of forces continued, reinforced by U.N. Security Council Resolution 678, which called for Iraqi forces to leave Kuwait. On January 17, 1991, U.S. and coalition forces launched Operation Desert Storm with a massive air interdiction campaign, which prepared the theater for a coalition ground assault. The primary coalition objective, the liberation of Kuwait , was achieved on February 27, and the next morning a cease-fire was declared, just one hundred hours after the commencement of the ground campaign.

During the Cold War, the US overthrew democracy in Iran and put in a corrupt little aristocrat, the Shah. As always, the US prefers dictators and kings over any democracy. When he was overthrown, our focus shifted to isolating and either invading or overthrowing the Shi'ite revolutionaries. The Sunni kings and sheiks, all very fearful of their own Shi'a minorities or in some cases, majorities, joined the US in this enterprise. To this day, the struggle for dominance which has been going on for nearly 1,000 years continues with the US taking the side of the despotic Sunni rulers versus the Shi'ites who use populism, not despotism, as their organizing base.

The tool which these Sunni rulers use is American nuclear power. They and the Israeli Jews [NOT the Israeli Arabs!] want Iran disarmed and put under a despotic Sunni. This rift is behind the mess in Pakistan where it joins up with the battle of Muslims in the former Soviet Union to create the explosive mess that runs from Afghanistan to Chechnya.

CENTCOM is the US response not to Soviet incursions but IRANIAN FREEDOM MOVEMENTS. After all, we nearly had a nuclear war over the placement of US radar and missile facilities in Iran back in the 1950's! Indeed, this was the trigger for Russia to persuade Castro to let them do the same to us which led to the Cuban Missile crisis. On top of all this, CENTCOM was installed in Saudi Arabia only after the king of Saudi Arabia was assassinated and replaced with the man I called 'The Evil Uncle' back in the late 1960's. King Faisal was a very fastidious and studious man who had very strong morals. His replacement was a corrupt, fat little man whose amorality has so offended others, it spawned an entity called 'Al Qaeda' which was organized and inspired by a young man whose family was very entangled with the king, the bin Ladens.

There is this very ancient story of a king besieging a city. The general running the siege noted that the doves flew out of the city to eat in the countryside during the day and then returned at night. So he had nets spread about and captured the birds during the day. Then, in the evening, they attached small, hot ember-filled bags to the legs of the birds who flew home to their roosts and thus, set the city on fire, causing it to fall for unlike flaming object catapulted onto roofs, the birds went under the eaves and so the fires could not be doused by buckets thrown on the roofs. This was bin Laden's thoughts about bringing down the US. His goal is for us to flip out and start many wars and thus, go bankrupt and also defeat the Shi'ites, who bin Laden hates, alongside all this! Then, he rides into Makkar [Mecca] on a white horse and purifies Islam after killing the ruler of Saudi Arabia.

This mad plan is a lot more ineffectual than the confrontation for world power between Russia, China and the US during the Cold War. Americans for get the 'hearts and minds' stuff of the sixties when India inspired the Non-Aligned Nations [the Third World] movement. Both Russia and the US competed, often very violently, in trying to force these nations into a confrontational alliance. Iran's defection from this alliance when they overthrew their dictator, bit us hard.

But nothing is changing! Or rather, after a wonderful opportunity to not only become good friends with Russia but also Iran, we did the opposite: we worked day and night to turn both into Cold War enemies so the Pentagon could justify their huge budgets. Our pro-Zionist media pushed hard for more war, more spending on the military and we have gotten both, to our tragic future distress. So it is no surprise to me to see Bush go to his masters in Jerusalem and then for him to go to the corrupt king of Saudi Arabia and then stand there on the edge of the Abyss to deliver a pro-nuclear war speech aimed at the Kitty of the Gulf. This, right after the US took a huge diplomatic hit to the snout from the panic over a bunch of small speed boats in the Gulf!

Gulf prankster possible message source

A threatening radio message at the end of a video showing Iranian patrol boats swarming near U.S. warships in the Persian Gulf may have come from a prankster rather than from the Iranian vessels, the Navy Times newspaper has reported.

A video and audio of the Jan. 6 incident in the Strait of Hormuz featured a man in accented English saying "I am coming to you. ... You will explode after ... minutes."

Cmdr. Lydia Robertson, spokeswoman for the Fifth Fleet in Bahrain, said the Navy was still trying to determine the source of the transmission but believed it was related to the Iranian actions.

What is really embarrassing is how a Pentagon spokesperson told the media this week, the reason we feared those little boats was simple. The Pentagon runs war games and they discovered that a small speed boat attack could sink 16 ships! The Persian Kitty is smiling ear to ear upon hearing confirmation of their suspicions. I said exactly this many years ago. The Persian Gulf is a classic cul-de-sac and we should not put our biggest ships in peril there. Our entire navy can be sunk fairly easily and not only by these speed boats, either. There are other ways of doing this as the Russians and Chinese know perfectly well. Both have closely examined the business of how to sink our ships at several key choke points on this planet. This is one of many reasons why WWIII is a stupid thing to launch. And as we know from history, when the balance of power is no longer in favor of a world empire, a world war often follows soon on the heels of this weakness.

All the more reason for our candidates for President to not sing 'Bomb, bomb, bomb Iran,' or talk about nuclear war with Iran. As a thoroughly confused US public shuns the obvious anti-war candidates in favor of the obvious pro-war candidates, one wonders if we will never learn any lessons from history. But then, the media wants us to see only the pro-war candidates so even as support for the antiwar candidates grows online, it drops in general. Activists are very aware of this split and are helpless to prevent it since most Americans get their information from TV which is wall to wall pro-war propaganda.

Suicide attack on Afghan luxury hotel kills seven

A suicide attack claimed by the Taliban killed seven people, including an American and a Norwegian journalist, on Monday at a luxury hotel in Kabul where the Norwegian foreign minister was staying.

There was no al Qaeda in Iraq before we invaded. Now we fight 'al Qaeda' every day. That is code for 'fighting peasant revolutionaries' of course. In Afghanistan, the Taliban who are NOT al Qaeda strike with impunity at the very heart of the imperial machine there. And the battle for nuclear Pakistan is heating up with the Taliban and their many allies making many inroads on a daily basis.

Sharif Accuses Musharraf of Being American Stooge

Nawaz Sharif, a former prime minister who was ousted by Musharraf in a 1999 coup, made his comments to a rally of 3,000 supporters near Islamabad. It was his first major campaign speech since the assassination of Benazir Bhutto, another opposition leader and former prime minister.

"Musharraf has destroyed Pakistan. He is blindly following America's orders," Sharif said. "The whole of Pakistan is drowned in blood."

He alleged the army left "girls riddled with bullets" when it raided a pro-Taliban mosque and female seminary in the capital last year. The government said more than 100 extremists were killed in the operation, and disputed claims that female students also died.

I noted that the repercussions of the Red Mosque would be similar to the Waco mess. It would strengthen the right wing religious fanatics and lead to bombings and other activities including the take over of the government by right wing Christians operating within the GOP. And we must never forget that they want the Apocalypse to come, aka, WWIII.

I have spoken with Lawrence of Cyberia in the past, he is a pro-Palestinian blogger who I respect for his clear vision and fairness. A number of readers have asked my why I don't excitedly write about Sibel Edmonds. From day one, she has given me the creeps. My suspicions of her are very deep and purely emotional but rooted in the fact that I grew up within the CIA. Please read his entire article about her.

In Defence Of Israel: Some Doubts About Sibel Edmonds

If you had to make a list of Post Titles You'd Least Expect To See At This Blog, "In defence of Israel" would probably be way up there. But in this case I'll make an exception. I've just been reading the story in The Times online edition about the former FBI translator, Sibel Edmonds, and her claim that she was witness to senior U.S. officials facilitating the transfer of nuclear technology to Pakistan via Turkish and Israeli middlemen. And I have to say that even though I relish as much as anyone the prospect of members of this Administration being outed as the criminals I believe they are, something doesn't quite ring true for me in Sibel's account of their crimes.

I haven't kept up with the ins and outs of the Sibel Edmonds case like some of the bloggers who've really been following it, but I do have some relevant background in that I used to be in the same line of work as she was. So even if I word things circumspectly, I do actually know a little bit of what I'm talking about here. My agency wasn't the FBI, and I didn't do the same languages as Sibel, but I think nonetheless there should be a certain commonality in our experience, and I'm just not seeing it.

Ditto here from the other end. People tell me, she was silenced by the government. But for a silenced person, she sure is loud! All over the place, in fact. I am not. Why is this? HAHAHA. We, the 'invisible' people know that if the government wants us invisible, we are! When Ruppert and I chatted many years ago, he got to see my files, the undeleted parts, and he called me back to say excitedly, he would write about me.

I am the one who told him about the Hubbert Oil Peak first, for example, long before he got involved heavily. Note that he has fallen apart, psychologically and mentally, since he made too much a ruckus online. I even told him back in 1998, he could tell my messages about what is coming next but he would not be believed. He tried his hardest but in the end, couldn't endure it.

Back to Sibel: her name spooks me. When a name points to the magical and we are talking about the CIA, I smell a rat. The CIA spreads spooky stories in order to discredit critics. Real critics can then be smeared with the 'conspiracy nut' label. The CIA doesn't worry if millions of Americans believe in goofy, improbable things. They WANT THIS TO HAPPEN! They want us divided! Divide and conquer!

They do this overseas, a lot, too. The person set up or hypnotized into setting up, or who is fooled into setting up a counter story that is unbelievable and frankly, stupid, has to be sincere. A true denizen of the higher levels of the CIA is a cynic. I am, we all can see, very cynical. I grew up totally cynical. Sibel is very sincere. So she is either a dupe or a tool. One thing about the government's upper levels: they love to play tricks. I grew up playing tricks on people. The #1 card of the Tarot deck is the Magician. And the CIA is the Magician in spades! So was the KGB who now runs Russia, by the way. Ahem.

Bush Sr used to head the CIA. We must never forget this important fact. The CIA has many levels of translators. I was supposed to train for the German sector, by the way, except for some things that happened a the University of Kansas which put the CIA and I in opposition forevermore. The top translators have to be people who are very close to the ruling elites. This way, they can conspire and not have anything leak out. Bin Laden, like myself, grew up very close to the top powers within the CIA. Very close to the Bush family. He is the ultimate CIA operative. He is also sincere while utterly cynical, a dangerous combination. A number of my readers are anxious to imagine, he doesn't exist nor has any influence on world events.

BULLSHIT. I have turned the Wheel of History in OPPOSITION to our government's wishes and so has he even as they thought he was turning the Wheel of History in the CIA's favor! He is their greatest tool for he brought down democracy in the US and replaced it with a Soviet State, the CIA always lusted for what their comrades in the KGB always had. But bin Laden's plans were deeper than the CIA plan to put us into a Soviet Union-style government. He wants to destroy us.

Back to Sibel: she doesn't pass my smell test. Her story grows more and more fabulous as time goes by but she is not from the top, she is from the lowest possible level. When Paul Craig Roberts, a prolific and great economics writer who used to work for Reagan at the very top, defected and started telling the truth, he brought in a lot of credentials to his battle with our government and the Federal Reserve. But Sibel is a nobody who is letting fly some of the most bizarre accusations. On the other hand, half of what she says is probably true! Only it is mixed in with lies so the government can brush the truth and the lies out with the same broom and thus, protect deep-secret affairs connected with Pakistan!

These operations happen ALL THE TIME. With 9/11, there were many things to sweep under, a mountain of evidence that matters a lot and are easy to prove such as the close connection of the Bushes to the bin Ladens or the first victim of the anthrax attacks being a man the Bushes and ONLY the Bushes had motive to murder. Instead, thanks to this deep-field CIA misinformation campaign, all attention is on the idea that the WTC was blown up! Talk about missing the boat here!

Note that NONE of the important KNOWN FACTS are discussed. And Ron Paul joins me in agreeing that the issue of the bombing of the WTC is false. So instead of stopping this garbage, the True Believers will ditch the truth teller, not the embracer of CIA false stories! So it is with Sibel. Note her name!

Lawrence of Cyberia:

It think it is a little unlikely for a linguist with six months' experience to have the seniority, access and analytical experience to be able to encounter a few of the scattered pieces of a very incomplete jigsaw, and draw them all together into the coherent picture that Sibel seems to have made out of the materials she was working with. To enter a very compartmentalized field and within six months have access to evidence of a wide-ranging conspiracy involving household names in this administration seems remarkable. I don't doubt Sibel could have heard some interesting snippets, but the amount of earth-shattering information she has drawn from a very brief stint in her job suggests perhaps a certain amount of embroidery and interpretation.

The CIA used to use Sybil Leek as a disinformation tool. She even was sent to Tucson to interview me and to 'see' into my mind and report what she found there. She made the mistake of doing this in a thunderstorm, my element. I 'looked' into her and saw the truth. She freaked out on me. It wasn't until many years after her death that it was revealed, she worked for the CIA. But I knew.

In closing: I called the place where the CIA operates, 'Shadowlands' after the CSS Lewis naming of what Tolkien called 'The Outer Darkness'. Shadowlands is a spooky place with many mirrors, trap doors, curtains and dark pools. It is very dangerous, moving around in this landscape. It invades the waking, sun world all the time. And it is pure evil. I call for the CIA to be thrown open to daylight. All the time. Some people like Ron Paul want the Federal Reserve ended. I want the CIA terminated. They won't protect us from WWIII, they will cause it.

Further: within the CIA are 'good guys' which all evil organizations need in order to hide their true nature. When any real do-gooder like mid-to-upper level people like Valerie Plame do whistle blow, the warmongering rags like the NYT and Washington Post don't ignore her, they hammer her mercilessly. Note they are NOT hammering on Sibel. So I am increasingly convinced, she was launched, even unknown to herself, to be a 'dark horse' or maybe a bird with a small bag of embers attached to her legs, to fly under the eaves.

Top Chinese General: 'There Is No Need to Fear Us'

In rare public comments, the Chinese military chief of staff told ABC News today that the United States should not be concerned about China's rapid military buildup, saying "there is no need to fear us."

"It is impossible for the U.S. to be afraid of our military development," said Gen. Chen Bingde, the chief of the General Staff Department of the People's Liberation Army.

"If you say the U.S. is afraid of our military development, then it means the U.S. does not have enough guts, it's easily scared, " he said. "We are not that capable. There is no need to fear us."

And the Dragon speaks the truth! We are scared of our own shadow. Yet not scared enough to want to disarm the nuclear nations, including ourselves, so we no longer have to fear WWIII. I will note that this top general is speaking with the permission of the top Dragon, Hu. He is being both sardonic and cynical at the same time. As a sardonic and cynical person, myself, I can only say, 'Damn. They have total contempt for our power!'

We should fear sardonic, cynical people who can outwit us. This is because Hu is a very, very smart operator. His IQ is twice as high if not 10X higher than our emperor who is only slightly smarter than the Kaiser of Germany before he screwed up WWI. No, he isn't smarter at all, actually.

The US doesn't need to fear Chinese military power. We need to fear their economic power. As I have detailed for years. And always, empires led by idiots better fear empires led by geniuses. Especially ones who win power via cut-throat Dark Pool battles within powerful organizations like the KGB or the Chinese Communist Party. Putin, like Hu, is a brilliant and ruthless leader. The fact that both Putin and Hu are now allies and also confide in each other in secret is a very bad thing for the US. Thanks to Bush being our leader, we have now arrayed against us, the world's two other top nuclear powers. This foreign affairs failure is the exact opposite of the triumph of the West when we got China to side with us against Russia back in the 1970's. This was so important to us, we dumped Taiwan into the back of the bus so we could move China to front and center.

Now, China is taking over driving the world bus. Thank you, everyone in the CIA and the government! You all were warned, long ago, about this.

"I think [Sibel Edmonds] is a tool set into motion to make the 'conspiracy' community look stupid."

No one needs a "tool" for that - the 'conspiracy'-based community is doing fine all on its own!

"The Bush administration is planning to use nuclear weapons against Iran,..."

Call it "Operation Kiss My Ass": Bush nukes Tehran, leaves office, and leaves the mess behind for whoever comes next.

"I used to take my father's typewriter ribbons and unscroll it to decipher what was written..."

Your dad didn't clean up after himself very well, did he? Even Junior G-Men know to burn the typewriter ribbon! And we were trusting HIM with state secrets? Jesus - all the KGB needed to do was follow Dad around town!

"There were NO PLANS to evacuate ANY CITIES."

No shit. Think about it: how DO you "evacuate" LA, anyway? Short answer: you can't. You can't "evacuate" NYC, either.

"Sharif Accuses Musharraf of Being American Stooge"

Well... Pervez IS an American stooge - but not as much of an American stooge as we'd like him to be.

"The CIA doesn't worry if millions of Americans believe in goofy, improbable things."

And they shouldn't - after all, there's not much they can do about it, is there?

"The #1 card of the Tarot deck is the Magician."

Speaking of your goofy, improbable things...

The Belgian state news channel is saying that France has made an agreement with the UAE to set up a permanent military base over there. Things are heating up...

The one that always kills me is "the US of Israel wants to stop Iran from developing nuclear warheads" (which would take them ten years or so).

People! Iran has plenty already. Does anyone really think they are going to spend a decade to develop them, when they can get as many as they want from the nations they have exclusive intra-Iran oil development projects with? India, China, Russia?

Even the CIA is not so clueless that they don't know that. The reason we ignore the NIE report is because we are not worried about "development" in Iran, which is a joke. We are angry and scared because we know that Iran already has them. We probably even have the serial numbers.

What's freaking us out is their missle testing. Our warships in the area for that reason.

[Bruce]

"CHENEY ran to his own bomb shelter" (command center) not out of fear, but to ensure the operation was completed.

[Bruce]

"We are angry and scared because we know that Iran already has them. We probably even have the serial numbers."

C'mon, Pluto. WE are angry and scared? We know they have them, but we just don't say so? Iran might nuke us thereby ensuring their complete obliteration? Please.

[Pluto]

Bruce, you make my point:

We know they have them, but we just don't say so? Iran might nuke us thereby ensuring their complete obliteration? Please.

Of course they are not "going to nuke us." Neither is China, India, Pakaistan, Russia, North Korea, France, Israel, or anybody else.

Like all other nations arming themselves -- they are for defensive purposes. No leader of a nation is so criminally insane that he would even breath the idea of using a nuclear weapon against a free and sovereign nation in an "offensive" way.

(Oh, oops, except for Bush, the first criminally insane leader to actually do such a thing. Unthinkable but stunning and true.)

You know, if I were a leader of a free nation (that happened to possess nuclear weapons), and some lunatic president started threating my country with unprovoked nuclear strikes -- all I could say is:

thank God that our enemies are idiots. -- Ahmadinejad

[Pluto]

Hey Bruce -- I just reread my comment and it sounded arrogant -- and I certainly did not mean to be. I very much respect your opinions.

[Elaine Supkis]

Bush has talked nuclear war more than once. He should be ARRESTED. And Congress can do this but who is ahead in the GOP primaries?

"Bomb, bomb, bomb Iran!" McCain! And AIPAC Clinton in the DNC! So far from arresting Bush, they are ASSISTING him and this alarms me no end.

As I keep pointing out, when Russia and the US could have annihilated each other several times, they didn't. Thank god. But also note that our rulers take great care to not be around possible nuke sites where there is real danger.

This is why I know they didn't run 9/11, they only let it happen. Cheney would NOT have been in DC if he thought an attack might take him out.

And I still contend that the Pentagon that sat on its ass did NOT expect the plane that hit them, would slam into them and not the other targets.

[Bruce]

Pluto, not offense taken. I misread your first comment, so it's my attitude that needs adjustment. (hence the cold pale ale at my side)

[PFO]

Hello Elaine,

In the half decade I lived in Europe, I met many interesting people from all over the world.

Jean [nickname] was from a French-Canadian family in Quebec. We played music for money with Giovanni in the subway in Rome. We also played in St. James Church in Medjugorje for grace.

Jean drank an awful lot and got me loaded on several occasions, once on the banks of the Neretva River in Muslim Mostar and another time on the streets of Rome near the Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore.

Naturally, on these occasions his tongue was loosened as well; and he revealed to me that he had worked many years for the Canadian telecom giant everyone knows.

His last job in the early 90's took him to Saudi Arabia to oversee the installation of an advanced intranet throughout the Kingdom with satellite uplinks to the LEO system.

He told me his company's partners were "bin Laden Electronics", and although he never admitted it I highly suspect he met Osama and his brothers.

Jean's life now as a pilgrim living on the streets of Europe, playing flute and guitar in Churches and praying and fasting is my evidence of the fruits of the activities of the groups and individuals mentioned in today’s column.

Kindest regards,

Here we go round the mulberry bush...

No, they did not blow up the two WTC buildings.

Very correct, they didnt blow up the two WTC buildings, they blew up THREE WTC buildings, and no freakin plane crashed into that 47 story building WTC 7.

BTW with the hundreds of security cameras filming every square inch of the pentagon, why hasnt any footage ever been released that proves that a 757 or any other large commercial passenger aircraft, hit the pentagon???????

Cause its all a fantasy story from start to finish and all you do is perpetuate the myth, and the ruling elite love you for it, they really do, they couldnt do a better job at it if they tried!!!!!

WTC 7 "just pull it!!"

[JSmith]

"No leader of a nation is so criminally insane that he would even breath the idea of using a nuclear weapon against a free and sovereign nation in an "offensive" way."

Not counting Truman?

[Pluto]

JSmith -- I thought about Truman. I will say this. The world knows the earth-destroying affect, now, of a very tiny atomic weapon. Such weapons are neither tactical nor strategic. They are a doomsday device for mutual assured destruction.

[Elaine Supkis]

Worse, one nuke can trigger ALL other nukes SIMULTANEOUSLY. This is why it is so horrible.

Greg, it is now utterly hopeless to explain simple physics and how cement buildings of vast size [no building one earth has come close to the WTC when it comes to amounts of cement weight, nothing].

People need to believe strange fantasies because reality is too creepy. NO demolition IN HISTORY EVER started at the TOP and then run downwards like we saw that day. NEVER.

Bombs at the base can't do that. And there were no 'squibs' blowing up, demolition charges are very, very loud. There was no such noise. Just for starters. And I have seen more than one skyscraper blown up in NYC and NJ when older buildings were pulled to make way for newer, taller buildings.

On top of this: there was NO REASON for Bush to 'blow them up.' All he needed was a stupid 'terrorist attack' and all he had to do was make certain no one stopped it. This is why he should have been investigated and arrested.

[mark1147]

Cheney would NOT have been in DC if he thought an attack might take him out.

Remember all the noise real soon after 9/11 about how the 4th plane/Flt. 93 or whatever, was likely headed to the White House? And how that seemed less and less likely as time passed and more details emerged. It was much more spin than fact after awhile.

But it was a terrific way for the administration to deflect attention from the very point you (Elaine) made -- at rock bottom, this whole crowd all share the same key flaw: raw cowardice. It's why they turned to the dark arts. They fear at some level that the evil they dish out so gleefully will someday circle back on them. And then they'll realize they're really not the Masters of the Universe after all ... and are just like the rest of us, nothin' special.

They're trying to cheat death, which is just not given to mortals. (And just how much of 5-infarction Dick is replacement parts these days?!)

[greg]

Nah no demolition explosions at all, these people who were at ground zero were all mistaken in fact they have had to resort to strange fantasies.....

and WTC 7????

and for those that need a lesson in simple physics

http://physics911.net/

Strange fantasies thats absolutely laughable coming from a person that believes in black magic, you and the bushes may believe in black magic, that DOESNT make it real!!!! I can show you a billion people that believe in a blue/white jesus, a virgin birth and a second coming, but that doesnt make it any more real just cause they all believe it.

Feel free at any time to ignore the facts about wtc 1&2 and just concentrate on wtc 7 for a while then we can work back from there.

i wont hold my breath.....

[greg]

As for the pentagram and shanksville those two stories are soooo full of holes that its laughable, you yanks are so full of denial that your own illuminati run government could do these things, you need to resort to strange fantasies of an international terrorist organisation such as Al Qaeda KAOS .....but us foreigners dont have any such reservations, weve seen and experienced your governments cruelty and deceit many times in the past, millions of dead and maimed can testify to that.

have a lovely day :)

[CK]

I always thought that fourth plane was headed for 3 mile island and just had navigationally challenged pilots.

[Elaine Supkis]

Greg, please.

The need to misunderstand ALL the wizards here is a propaganda point put out by the left to deflect attention from the vast web of tricky things going on!

The Bushes and the bin Ladens are VERY CLOSE. And play off of each other and run scams which involve some nasty stuff. As we can see.

About blowing up the WTC: virtually no one thought this the first second or third days. This story grew insidiously and slowly. I watched it appear on forums, bit by tiny bit. It annoyed me back then for there were NO EXPLOSIONS.

At least, nothing at all resembling normal demolition sounds. I have been to demolitons while 99.9% of the people who were at the WTC neighborhood that day probably never saw one in their lives except in movies.

Oh well. People are not interested in the anthrax killer yet he walks the halls of power to this day. Why is that?f Eh? Want to see how black ops works? This is how.

[Chris]

Yup it always struck me as odd the way the Anthrax attacks targeted the OPPOSITION to the Bush regime. Why on earth would a terrorist attack the political opposition instead of the political power directly? The anthrax attacks (with US military grade anthrax), and the strikingly untimely death of Wellstone, eliminated all effective political opposition to Bush's policies just when such opposition was needed the most. Instead the Democratic leadership lined up like sheep behind Bush. I suggest they got the point loud and clear. The overall pattern from the election 'debacles' (with CIA style destabilizing operations in the background) through 9/11, the anthrax attacks, and onwards is quite clear. Cui Bono - who benefits?

[CEO Nutcracker]

Here Elaine,

Here is that number again '322'. Now do you believe it?

"This is 'Government Exhibit no. P200032' from the Moussaoui trial. It shows the exit hole made in ring C of the Pentagon. It is very difficult to explain how a passenger aircraft could penetrate 95 metres into the Pentagon and make such a compact, round exit hole. There were also columns in the 'firing line' that were virtually undamaged.
Read more... "

I have done plenty of research on this subject and find it would take a conspiracy to not see it for what it was, an inside job.

There was evidence a secret operation was being carried the very day of 911 and all scramblers were ordered to stand down by Cheney. The terrorist were dupes in this US counter-terrorism exercise. The planes, flown by remote control and entire operation was orchestrated out of WTC 7. The NYPD were told to stay out of the building while it burned for hours. Everyone was shocked as it fell in 11 seconds in its own footprint.

http://www.911truth.dk/first/en/keypoints.htm

You can refer to this website to watch its collapse live and view pictures of the Pentagon exit hole that a mechanical engineer claims could only been caused by a shaped charge warhead.

Have a look if you wish. The grass where the plane supposedly touched down has no tire marks. Neither were there any plane parts to be found.

Also, why was ALL the evidence of the worst criminal act on US soil all removed and never investigated. One must ask, at the very least, this question to be honest and fair.

The CIA was going to use this remote commuter plane crash as far back as during the Cuban Missile crisis. I forget the name of the OP, but the was by using planes painted to resemble flights leaving airports and downing fakes in the sea off the Cuban coast they could blame Cuba. The hangars where these simulations were taking place from were in ..........Florida. What a co-inky dinky. The name of the Operation going on in NY on 911 can be found quite easily on the net. There was another MI-6 operation in progress the day of 7/11 bombings in London. Supposedly the guys with backpacks in the videos were dupes in this OP as well. Israel had warned Netanyahu of the attack before they happened that day. He postponed his plans in London that day, accordingly.

[Greg]

Right on the money CEO!!!!!
