Todays 'Shock and Awe' in Bagdad.
Something about it is bugging me. Not since the initial invasion has anything been so obviously done for the 'press' tv cameras since then. And that as we all know was a terrorist act done by the Neo-Cons to begin this war. If I see a surprise press conference held later today, or anytime this week with Bush stating some B.S. of Syria/Iran involvement in todays blasts ...... well I think you guys know where I'm heading with this. Just speculation ...... any thoughts? Peace.

1. I admit I had similar thoughts, I have been trying to squash them down
though

I wouldn't put that past bushco, that's for sure. I really really hope it isn't the case.

But like others have pointed out, when you corner an animal, dangerous things will happen.

When you corner a monster like bushco, I don't even want to know what's happening

:scared:

4. Yea trying to squash these thoughts too ...... but had to say it.
To get it off my chest. Hope the week goes by with the indictments coming down and 'all is good.' Those thoughts I like. :)

5. Ya know ..... when the Brits broke out those two guys
a couple of weeks ago from that Iraqi Jail, I stated then they would blame it on a 'rogue jail' run by insurgents. Sure enough ..... :crazy:

3. I've had similar thoughts also.

Unfortunately, I believe Bushco will do ANYTHING to hold onto power - and fabricating a reason to attack Syria seems to be the ticket.

6. Yea I just got done listening to Scott Ritter on another link ....
here and he just about stated the same thing about Bushco and the administration getting really desperate with whats coming down on them. Pray for peace. I hope this week isn't as nerve wracking as some of my thoughts make it out to be. Geesh..... :)

7. I hope for one thing.
For Fitzgerald's investigation to bring down this administration. If it doesn't, I am afraid nothing will ever stop them; they'll destroy this country. They must be stopped now.

9. Whatever happened to better late than never?
:shrug: ..... But your correct, yesterday wouldn't have been soon enough for me. 'I must break you' like Rocky's rival in one of his old movies stated. I see Fitzgerald saying that to this administration this week. :) Today we can only hope. Peace.

8. Tail wagging the dog?
It WAS a Repig charge against Clinton...those who think it up are the ones most likely to do it, IMHO. Hope it's not true, but I don't put anything past these people.

10. Yea if they are going to pre-empt Fitzgerald ........
besides 'swiftboating' his reputation, this would be the week to do it. Gotta watch their every move. Oh how I look forward to the day we can trust our own government again! :freak:
