Conspiracy Theories And The News

“There are terrorists holed up in those mountains who murdered 3,000 Americans. They are plotting to strike again . . . If we have actionable intelligence about high-value terrorist targets and President Musharraf won’t act, we will.”

President Elect Barack H Obama speaking about Pakistan.  August 1, 2008, on the campaign trail

Today Secretary Of State Rice said the minds behind the attacks in India must be brought to justice. The attackers base is reported to be in Pakistan

Over the past few weeks US planes, based in Afghanistan, have flown attack missions into Pakistan.

Mr. Obama has said he will have all combat troops out of Iraq in 16 months. He repeated that this morning after publicly announcing he will keep Robert Gates on as Defense Secretary. The theories abound. Hell…I have a few myself. After all, how can a guy live in Roswell and not start thinking like a conspiracy theorist. I am surrounded by that attitude daily here.

I have heard, read and thought about these things coming together for a while. From the beginning, when I heard that Osama bin Laden had moved to Pakistan, I was sure George W Bush would invade there as well. Then I realized he couldn’t. He had been exposed to the world as a warmongering fool with a grudge against Hussein that used his military to overthrow him. After all, daddy got humiliated by Saddam a few years ago and needed to have his honor avenged.

But how long has the machine had Pakistan in its sights and to what extent did they go to insure John McBush wasn’t our Commander In Chief? How could a Bushie lead us into war with yet another country without being questioned? A fresh face with the promise of change on his lips can sell it better than the Same Ol’ Same Ol’. They couldn’t put Hillary Clinton in there now as they have different plans for her down the road.

After the attacks in India this past holiday weekend, invading Pakistan seems imminent. The pre warning by Obama before he was elected. The withdrawal of troops from Iraq to Afghanistan as promised. The rumors of bin Laden in Pakistan instead of Afghanistan. The necessity of placing another American friendly puppet government into a volitale anti western area. The proximity of Afghanistan bases to Pakistan. The sell to the American masses will be easy.

It HAS been proven to us that the invasion of Iraq was based on lies and deceit. Americans, and the rest of the world Do feel our invasion of Afghanistan had merit because al-Quaida was “based” there. An invasion of Pakistan WOULD be okayed by the world.

Because…who knows?

Maybe this time we’ll find Osama bin Laden.
