Rmoney and friends already have our next false flag operation picked out for us. It's the only thing they're good at. Who in the thinking universe wants Mittens and Bibi running our world?

I also wouldn't be surprised if there isn't a direct tie-in with this Terry Jones character and the 50 Israeli "investors" in that atrocious video. This incident today seems very staged to me, including someone in Egypt and Libya inciting the reaction there. Once again, I don't buy it. The whole thing smells phoney to me -- and very conventient for Rmoney.
