1. United States let Sept. 11 plotters pass by

Not that I really expect to see that headline, but I saw this one in USA Today, this morning

Iran let Sept. 11 plotters pass by No proof Tehran was in on attacks

and I went, wa-a-a-it a minute, what about the United States? Didn't they do the same thing?

2. Didn't some of the hijackers pass through the Bahamas?

I remember that Atta and some others passed through the Bahamas on their way back to Florida after some "clandestine" meeting.

The war on the Bahamas (after Iran, Syria, N Korea, Pakistan, Saudi) should be a pretty easy win.

3. So Israel leads the attack against Iran next Sunday

We, of course can't leave them out in the cold, so we follow up on what they started. This will require the threat level to be raised, especially in big cities, such as Boston, necessitating the "postponement" of the De3mocratic convention. But don't worry, I'm sure things will be okay in time for the Republican convention.
