I have this sinking feeling: Al-Zawahiri urges attacks on Israel(& allies)
Edited on Thu Jul-27-06 08:38 AM by originalpckelly
"Al-Qaeda's deputy leader has urged Muslims to attack Israel and its allies over the violence in the Middle East.

SNIP

The deputy to Osama bin Laden wore a grey robe and white turban during the statement. A picture of the World Trade Centre on fire was on the wall behind him along with pictures of two fighters."

Gee, I don't who he could be talking about when he says allies, do you?

If this Israeli offensive makes the US an even greater target for terrorist attacks, God help Israel.

1. We've already alienated most of the Middle East with out
Iraq policy.

But backing Israel in their criminal enterprise, well hell, that's just the icing on the cake.

2. I think you're right...
but anything that involves the Israelis gets the anti-Jewish sentiment flowing, which is a multi-generational sort of sentiment.

We have stumbled into a nest of Africanized-killer-bees. We are fucked.

3. And now, let's take that a step further
Say in the next couple of months Al-Qaeda, Hezbollah or some other of their agents launches an attack on the US. What is going to happen? Off we go to war with Iran, Syria, or both. This has been the stated objective of Bushco since 1998. And of course oil prices will go up, providing even more record profits for the oil industry. And the military-industrial complex will profit mightily also. And throw in the fact that such an attack will scare the sheeple people back to the Republican/neo-con fold, just when they're starting to wake up and actually question Bushco, and just in time for the fall elections. Face it, such an attack, much like 911, would be a win-win for Bushco and their cronies. Sadly it is going to be a huge loss for the rest of us, both directly and indirectly.

4. Remember John Dean: They pursue these policies on PURPOSE!
They want things to be worse, because it gives them more power. This came from a good conservative, John Dean. I think we need to be reminded of it. They want a full-scale world war.
