If there ever was any real danger of terrorism the government and business interests would not allow for these ports to be turned over to Arab business interests. There is no danger. It has been reviewed by the Committee on Foreign Investments in the United States. Terrorism fears are only convenient for manipulating the American Puppet People into a state of fear for the purpose of gaining their support of Bush’s foreign policies. When it comes to Bush business, fear of terrorism is something that gets in the way. This is a business transaction.
This is a political issue developed by the Democrats to make Bush look weak on protecting the United States. Instead of pointing out how Bush has really weakened the United States and caused the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people, they refer to a peripheral issue on which they feel they cannot be attacked for attacking the president. Additionally Bush is letting it play out because it keeps people talking about safety, about the possibility of terrorism.
The Port transaction is simply a business deal. There is nothing more to it than that.
Now we have three more undoubtedly innocent men from Toledo who have been accused of trying to attack and kill Americans in Iraq and to kill the President. All this based on an informant who was previously in the “military”. Toledo Ohio, Middle America. Toledo shivers in fear. We hear that there is a terrorist cell in Chicago too.
This is absurd on it’s face. The three (already convicted by the Media ala Jose Padilla) are accused of planning to use IED
explosives in Iraq to kill American troops. The fact that they are in Toledo, Ohio seems to escape the Attorney Generals logic throughout his interpretation. Why would they learn about IED’s with plans to use them in Iraq? Why wouldn’t they as effective, loyal to the cause “terrorists” , plan to use their weapons in the U.S. for the purpose of really terrorizing America?
The reason no doubt is that they are a group of people who are angry about American foreign policy and had no real plans to do anything. They were just talking, they were musing. It had no logical thread. But they spoke to each other about, perhaps their hope that more American troops would be killed in Iraq and how they wished they could do something. Then the investigators went to work and pieced an illogical story together about these men and the investigators gave them an incredibly ludicrous plot from which they could be tried.
We are hearing a lot about terrorist cells and terrorist Plots against the U.S. lately. We have heard how a plot to blow up a sky scraper in Los Angeles was thwarted. Khalid Sheik Mohammed was the source of the information. Perhaps he too, was tortured into telling the interrogation “team” what they wanted to hear. Bush says he has foiled 10 major plots. So far then the U.S. is 10 for 10 in stopping major terrorist attacks. There are in fact no plots or few plots of any consequence. It is a fact that there have been no attacks since 911. So we can say factually that there have been no plots enacted in 4 and a half years. To give credit to the incompetent Bush White house seems mad to me. The terrorists, like the communists in the 50’s just aint there. What kind of terrorists organizations are these that can’t get it together at least once a year for a back pack attack?
There is no threat to the United States by terrorists that has any substance. It’s all a myth. Again 911 was a one time event. It has not been repeated because there is no one, or group who have the capability, desire, determination or interest to do us any harm.
That is why terrorist attacks against the U.S. are not a daily occurrence. It is not hard to blow up a back pack on a train. This requires little technology, planning and capability. It requires only desire. The information is on the internet but no one is really interested in doing anything about it.
And if someone were to blow up a train and kill 20 people, I have to ask the question…How significant is it? The answer is that it is not terribly significant except to those who were harmed. And that is a small number. 3.000 is also a small number. 2,500 troops dead in Iraq is also a small number. 100,000 Iraqis killed in Iraq is a much larger number. But that nation goes on. So must we all.
All the terrorism news we are hearing is a preparation by the government for the upcoming Air War on Iran.
