Something big will happen before September?
Edited on Tue Jul-10-07 11:19 PM by brettdale
It seems the general is an honest man and he will likely come back in September with a report saying Iraq is a shambles.

Is anyone worried that something BIG will happen before that, to take our minds off of it?

1. Chertoff says he has a "gut feeling" we will be attacked this summer.
MIHOP anyone?

2. It may not be an attack
But the September report wont be positive, so something might happen.

Or they might just do the old "BLAME THE DEMOCRATS" trick

9. There won't be an attack.
The report will come out as planned, it will say that Iraq is in shambles and that the surge isn't working (as expected), and then two days later the government will cite "specific and credible evidence" that a major terrorist strike could be on its way sometime in the next month. It will be an excuse to raise the color-coded security threat another color, and it will sufficiently distract the MSM from the whole Iraq-Is-In-Shambles-And-The-Surge-Isn't-Working thing.

4. No. I won't worry, it's non productive and exactly what the cabal wants from us.
They want us scared, I'm not giving it to them. MKJ

6. If something big does happen, few will consider it nothing other than a "Riechstagg" moment... eom

7. Sure he does.
Whenever the Repugs want to distract our attention they play the Terror Card. Keep your eyes on them.

8. Don't we have 3 carrier group
either near Iran or on the way? If that is true, might expect something big this summer. Bush and buddies have a hard on for Iran.

12. I think they're all just...
phoning it in these days...not even giving a shit if there is any logic to their bullshit. I can picture the cabal sitting around deciding which poor sucker has to go in front of the cameras and provide the distraction of the week.

13. No, will happen next year
And this administration will blame the terraists in order to suspend elections. Right now is too far away for that.

14. They don't have control anymore. They wish they did though
this is all distraction and noise. Too many people are aware of the little boy who cried wolf

17. Well I sure hope the
Alphabet Agencies are all watching each other and sharing information. I don't trust anyone any more. I've gone Paranoid. Perhaps delusional. I worry more about them cooking up something big to scare us. Than I do Terrorists. I worry about them hiring Private Armies, which are being bred in these United States to get us while our National Guard Units are out of the country. I'm scared I'll give them ideas. The people, whom are in charge, are so bad, corrupt, and evil, that I have had my core beliefs shaken about all that is good and decent. I don't like being the 'bad' guys. We have become the villains thanks to Cheney. The world hates us. God, I hope 'they' don't punish us again so they can have a reason to make bombs. What fuckers. Spy vs Spy at the agencies. Who's watching whom? Gawd.
