who’s husband did not have sexual relations with that woman



as opposed to the uncowardly act of using drones to blow civilians to bits in Pakistan the use of which is endorsed by Hillary Clinton herself.




As America and Israel prepare for war with Iran and possibly Syria (which will probably drag in Russia and China on the Iranian/Syrian side)

from Veterans Today. I started a thread asking if the source was credible and one regular DUer said she used that link. I decided that the best way to ask questions was to use the Google Link. The only link on google that I recognized was KOS.

So I asked the question raised on all the links.

I also noticed that John McCain condemned that crazy woman Bachmann in the Senate.

It is our opinion that this is a valid news story. We believe the attack on Clinton is related to the current political upheaval in Israel, an attempt to kill Clinton, blame Iran and take the focus off the domestic political meltdown.

We also feel the bus attack in Bulgaria, killing 6 Israeli citizens is highly suspect for the same reasons as well.

Israeli radio broke the story Sunday night, midnight, but never mentioned it again. This has been confirmed by sources inside Israel




So.... To distract our focus there was one radio blurb around midnight that was never repeated. Kinda minimalist, don't ya think?

Plus the bus attack in Bulgaria is suspect for the same reasons. Umm... what reasons are we talking about again?


At this point I am not buying it. If the AP reports on it then I will admit I was wrong.

The man who wrote the article states elsewhere Israel was a Soviet ally during the Cold War, suggests most anti-Israel statements on blogs are actually by 'New World Order' operatives trying to discredit opposition to Israel, and in general seems to have the whole 'hidden hand of the Jew' psychosis in flamboyant form. The 'report' by Reuters seems to be simply a report Iran claimed this occurred; there remains no other source for the story than an Iranian government press report. His comments seem to suggest the 'attack' on Sec. Clinton was carried out by the Israeli government, to rouse the U.S. to attack Iran....
