A very high chance that the US military is about to turn on Bush
Edited on Tue Nov-09-04 04:57 AM by AIndependentTexan
I'm not for sure when it is going to happen, but I know it is going to happen soon. The US military itself will soon be turning against Bush. It is part of a prophecy that I have heard.

2. Could you be a little more specific?
What do you mean by "prophecy"? Tarot cards? Entrail-reading?

Seriously, what evidence have you seen that leads you to this conclusion?

8. Can't give evidence, but will point you to first sign of it
First clear sign I can give you is the troops that refused to carry out a mission before the election. Trust me though it will become clearer.

6. How do you "Know" Is it just a feeling ?
Or do you have evidence? I knew Kerry would win! And maybe he did.

7. No speculation, please
Only make a claim that can be backed up by some tangible evidence. Idle speculation starts a lot of false hope, discontent, and bad planning.

9. Why? They're getting the blood letting that the
troops have been asking for.

I've heard some dumb young kids that they were eager to go on with the killing in order get even for 9/11.

Some are decent and many aren't.

I saw the photo of the long trench with tiny bundles that used to be children and babies. Our troops did that.

War crimes are happening right this very minute.

10. no it won't- the troops and bush have the same interests...

14. Exciting
Could you define "prophecy" in context to your statements?

That word manages to cover a whole spectrum, indicating anything from simple premonition to an actual tipoff from someone with concrete knowledge of events to come. I'm sure that many of us would prefer details regarding this matter.

When it comes to "just having a vague feeling," I am thinking that, regardless of the upcoming Diebold scandal, much larger things are on the event horizon; things that will make every Republican-voting American of 2004 feel dirty for their indirect involvement with.

17. Bush is creating a self profilling prophecy of this coming true
It is the attitude and policies that will lead to this happening. There are more and more signs coming clearer everyday. It is very logical as events become clearer.

19. I take it that you're inside the military, and are talking to...
... all kinds of military folks then, and that this is based on more than just mere premonitions?

Or, are you instead just talking out of your ass?

I'm inclined to believe it's the latter. The military is not going to "turn on" Bush. I was in the military as soon as this summer. I can assure you that it is nowhere close to "turning" on him.

26. First it isn't a conspiracy theory
Second, I'm incline not to believe it myself till I see it. Third, a friend of mine was a solider during the pre-election Iraq war. When he was stationed in Iraq he was connected 24/7 by IM. I never asked vital information about what was going on and I never cared about that part. A lot of troops don't believe in this war. The ones that show up on tv are hand selected by loyalty oaths. A lot of them just want to come home. This is were Bush is creating a self profiling prophecy of this happening. The longer he keeps these men in service through back-door drafting. The less they want to support. Remember most of the people think they are coming home when their term is up.

25. Don't know about "prophecy", but you give good headline, it

definitely captures attention.

Do you have some insight or evidence as to why you think this is a "high chance", then I'd love to hear it, it's not the vibe I get from talking to my armed forces friends and relatives. They are all for * for the most part, I think it boils down to he is kicking ass (in their view).

27. can't blame you
Might as well try citing prophecy. Common sense isn't getting through to people. Logic falls on deaf ears. They don't believe their own eyes. They have forgotten their own words.

Of course, ironically, I see a lot of posts about astrology and tarot cards that are given a warmer welcome than this prophecy post.

I, too, know that it will happen, and that it will happen soon, and that it will be horrendous. How do I know this? The same way that we all do, the only difference being that some are in denial and some are not.

People are actually planning for, and arguing about, a 2006 scenario that will never arrive.

28. Oh brother!!!
You know beginning a thread with something absurd as "part of a prophecy that I have heard" won't get you very far.

Then when you begin making up words like "profilling" well you just lose all credibility.

DU already comes under enough fire from freeps who believe we don't support the troops, and you want to begin stuff like this without actually any proof?

29. who said I was forcing anyone to believe it?
It's out there now so nothing I can do about it. I never said I was here to be popular everyone agrees with buddy buddy. This is still a forum. You act like I wasn't prepaired for this reaction.
