I smell Karl Rove all over this Nuke Iran thing! |
|
Not even Lord Pissypants is stupid enough to do it. It would be the final disaster for the Pukes, But...It certainly takes the focus off the rest of the disasters this miserable failure of an administration has presented us with. I call Bullshit! Just another Rovian diversion to keep us from paying attention to the Cabal falling apart at the seams of corruption, hypocracy, and lies.

2. Someone recently asked bush if he believed that this was the "endtimes" |
|
and he didn't give a straight answer.
If he does, that would explain a lot.

6. I haven't seen any names mentioned but I would tend to agree |

I don't see the DOD making contingency plans without Dead-Eye and Rummy on board.

7. Seems to me the PUSH is about domestic political strategy |

and not military or foreign policy strategy.
There is no need to have US headlines proclaiming that the Pentagon is looking at possible strategies for attacking Iran. Of COURSE they are!! That's what they do! They plan and strategize for wars. Nothing new there.
The question is: why are they trumpeting it at home?
The "military option" is always there, in the background of all our nation's dealings in the world. That's a large part of the leverage with which we can exert pressure; BUT, we also have means of exerting persuasion, diplomatically and economically and politically, and that comes first. Anyone we're dealing with or talking to knows that the US speaks with an unspoken, obvious threat of force in the background.
IF sabre-rattling is required, it's easily done quietly between leaders, or in negotiations, or within multi-national summits or councils; there is no need to be spreading all this propaganda at HOME at this point. That's what I find odd.
Why the loud sabre-rattling in US newspaper headlines, about plans for attacking Iran???

9. O.K., lets see. Rove says he is against it. |
|
In Bushspeak, that means he is lying! Clean air= more pollution, healthy forests = cut down the trees, no child left behind = fuck poor kids, I will get Osama = I don't really care, I will take care of the leaker = I am the leaker and I am taken care of, etc, etc, add infinitum!
These people have only one consistancy! You can't believe anything they say! Why, oh why does anybody continue to believe them?
