Staged nuke on US soil?
The very idea scares the holy shit out of me (and I'm an atheist!). It concerns me that I've heard this notion bouncing around randomly for the last few weeks. They wouldn't do that, would they?

1. What about that rumor about August 6. Remember that one?
So much talk about it beforehand, and none after.

4. there are no dates on the nuclear "exercise" except for "August"
It's still an open threat AFAIK.

3. frodo failed.
lord sauron cheny can answer that question.

couple of nukes and martial law and who needs WW III?

it seems to me that bushies/elites declared war on the middle class that they despise

no middle class in the way then they can loot and pilfer without those pesky truth seekers around to harass em..and expose their crimes..

NO NUKES SAURON!!

5. Thread was locked, but supposedly that was the TRUE story behind
the demotion of General Byrnes. He was trying to stop the deploying of a weapon here in the states that was going to be the excuse to invade Iran.

I did not know that prisonplanet was not considered a reliable source. Someone else posted the story and I reposted it.

2 quotes:

"Other sources however have offered a different explanation for Byrnes' dismissal which ties in with the Bush administration's unpopular plan to attack Iran and the staged nuclear attack in the US which would provide the pretext to do so."

"Government and media mouthpieces have been fearmongering for weeks about how a nuclear attack within the US is imminent."

You can check it out..and take it with a grain of salt if you so choose.

6. Yeah, I just read something about that...
The article also mentioned something about military plans to implement Martial Law in the United States.

9. I speculated on this in another thread:
unfortunately, it was locked for some reason, probably because the grief I was given by other DU member.

17. They HAVE to justify using nukes in Iran somehow, don't they?
Edited on Thu Aug-11-05 07:03 PM by BeHereNow
Did you read the Philip Giraldi piece ib the American Conservative?
If not, in summary, he disclosed excerpts from a Cheney plan
to launch an immediate air assault on Iran, REGARDLESS of whether or
not evidence could connect them to another "9-11" scale attack
on US soil.
The plan included the use of tactical nukes-
HOW could they justify that withOUT staging a nuclear
attack here?
Add Uzbekistan and the other ME country hosting US airbases
asking us to leave and tell me what you think it means?
LIHOP/MIHOP
LIHOP/MIHOP
LIHOP/MIHOP
These crazy fucks are determined to "get their war on"
in Iran, to hell with us, they have their secret bunker to hide in
while the rest of us suffer retaliation from their pre-emptive
nuclear bombing of Iran, which they plan to justify by
another attack here.

21. A song from my hometown heroes, The Flaming Lips, comes to mind...
"You Have To Be Joking (Autopsy Of The Devil's Brain)"

You have to be joking
They wouldn't do what you said
Oh, my vision is blurred again

You have to be kiddin' me
They wouldn't do those unspeakable things
Oh, my Jesus
It's worse than you think

Stood here in the morning
Got no science to explain
Seems to me that God and the devil
Are both the same

You have to be lyin'
They wouldn't do what you told me about
Oh, my vision is blurred again
