1. The bomb was never meant to go off
It was meant to keep the goddamn fear machine going, and perpetuate the lie that we need to stay in Poppypipelineistan or else the "terraists are gonna kill us all!!1!!" :scared:

Faisal Shazad? He's just a patsy. Willing or unwilling, who knows?

2. I don't know whether he's CIA or not,
But I do know that something about this whole deal stinks. I mean really now, give me an alarm clock, some propane, keep the gas and firecrackers, and I could make a nice big boom, hell, even back when I was twelve.

This whole thing is fishy, and we'll probably never know what it's all about.

3. Well if Osama Bin Laden is a former CIA agent
then anyone could be imo. I wonder if Saddam was on their payroll for awhile.

8. Rex surely you know
we back any horse we feel gives us an advantage against some other horse we oppose at that moment:



Shaking Hands: Iraqi President Saddam Hussein greets Donald Rumsfeld, then special envoy of President Ronald Reagan, in Baghdad on December 20, 1983.

11. I wonder if he (Saddam) would have shook his hand knowing that very man
would be directly responsible for his hanging decades later?

4. They've gone from shoes to underwear to a potting soil SUV
At least the CIA is creative.

6. I don't know about the potting soil ...
something tells me they didn't assign the CIA's "A-team" to this mission?

Perhaps more like the cast of "Men Who Stare At Goats?" :evilgrin:

5. The honest answer is, only the CIA knows for sure.
Yeah, like "your hair dresser" commercials. :silly: :blush:

I don't believe any news that only emanates from "officials" or the USA M$M.

Most times I look for confirmation by the foreign press and other past reliable sources.

Considering the "Gulf of Tonkin", Iran Arms-Contra Aid as well as our numerous covert actions within Central American during the 1980s, I would not be surprised if what you claim above is true.
