Did Bush create Abu Ghraib to get his Armageddon Train back on track?
Edited on Sat May-08-04 12:35 PM by awake
I know the details of this tragedy would suggest otherwise, but wouldn't inciting the Arab world to violence play into his twisted vision? Just another out-there thought.

Edit -

I posted this before reading liberalnproud's thread which covers this concept among others. In these truly bizarre and puzzling days many of us are likely to have the same "out there" notions.

1. I am torn
Between thinking this Tex-ass POS couldn't think his way out of paper bag and on the other hand seeing him as the mind of pure evil genius. But there again maybe pure evil can appear stupid as a useful ruse.

4. Well, (yawn) if he had the brain power..... (stretch)
He might be able to pull it off. But, let's face it -- this has been a 3-year show of the Keystone Cops: 'The Continuing Madcap Adventures of The Keystones'.

Have they done anything right? I can honestly say that they've screwed up everything they've touched....and some they didn't touch.

They're just amateurs, stupid fools masquerading as pros. They're not capable of it.

5. You're not so far "out there"
David Icke addresses this subject in an article today wherein he says:

....snip...

"The plan is to use America and in doing so to break America, economically, politically and militarily. Most importantly it wants to break the American spirit and its sense of identity and self.

So the exposure of the US torture and abuse of Iraqi prisoners serves the Illuminati in many ways, two in particular:

(a) It further stimulates outrage in the Arab world about the United States and, as I wrote years ago, the plan is to engineer a Muslim 'Holy War' against the US to 'justify' the use of their fire power to set the Middle East ablaze and take over the region.

(b) It eats away at America's, albiet false, sense of idenity as the John Wayne good guys who sacrifice themselves for freedom and justice across the world. Americans torture people? That can't be right, it's those evil foreigners that do that, isn't it? The 'revelation' that the United States 'support our troops with pride' military could commit such abominations is a massive blow to America's self confidence and sense of national identity - exactly as planned.

Nothing is what it seems and while we may appear to be seeing the expansion and grotesque expression of American might and power we are actually watching that power and sense of nationhood being systematically destroyed."

6. I would agree with you, but
I had a problem with the 'reptile' thing. I've read some of David Icke's articles, and while I agree with a lot of what he wrote, he basically made the ruling powers out to be impervious, powerful to the point where no one could oppose them. The entire world is run according to their plan.

I couldn't understand why he would say that Powell was part of the 'blood' thing. They're just using him. He's no more sacrosanct than I am.

Just my thoughts.

8. TO Cliss
Icke has written a lot about the Bilderbergs, Rothchilds and the "Illuminati," which can get pretty scary. And, if you do a bit of research yourself, you will probably end up cowering in the corner, eating your hair...lol

I think (hope)their vision of world dominance far exceeds their competence to bring it to fruition. I think (believe) that Colin Powell, whose willingness to carry his master's water has given him a 35-year "ticket to ride" signed up for a piece of the action -- but wants no part of the RE-action...

But that's just me. Hell, I could be wrong...

7. is the plan to emasculate the local population?
Edited on Sat May-08-04 12:52 PM by jogi1969
do these morans think that by doing so they will have LESS
resistance?
that these pic's and storys will not remind muslims of the good 'ole days of imperialism -- when a good days work was rewarded by a good days beating?

can they be this stupid?
