For those who are curious about the Franklin plea, check this
out and tell me what your thoughts are.

I think you/we have to think big here. Put on your tinfoil hat for
a minute (mine is on :tinfoilhat:) and remember it's not a conspiracy if it's true; we don't know yet if it's true or not but we will.

Franklin's crime involves AIPAC a Pro-Israel lobby group. He has pleaded guilty to giving classified info to those not authorized to receive it and also to having classified docs at his home (85 total seized by authorities) that he wasn't supposed to have at his home. What if Judy Miller is tied to Franklin in some way? And/or Israel? She's the mouthpiece/conduit for terra, terra, terra. What if the evil Dick knew needed people not to find out about his secret income sources and outed Plame not so much to get back at Wilson (which he loved doing and was a bonus) but mostly to stop the tracking of the WMD deals currently going on? He knew what he was doing when he outed Plame and it had to come from the top due to the nature of the classified info. THINK ABOUT HOW THIS ADMINISTRATION ALWAYS PLACES BLAME IN A DOWNWARD MOTION, NEVER UP.

It seems that Judy didn't decide to come forward until she knew Franklin had testified. Remember that journalist as heroine of freedom of the press is just noise...to distract from her real motives for what she did.

The long and short of the Franklin case, IMHO, is that of conspiracy and co-conspirators involving high ranking officials and more than one country.

Okay, so here's the kicker, take off the tinfoil hat and think about it...it makes sense. I have been reading about it alot and Franklin is a key piece.

2. I have been very interested in the AIPAC angle
They threw the most lavish parties at the two conventions last year. That to me is noteworthy, the most expensive parties for both the Cons and the Dems. AIPAC exerts serious (& improper, IMO) influence on our political system.

I agree with the WMD angle though, there is a lot more there than meets the eye. Hopefully Fitzgerald is all over it.

Throw in Doug Feith and Wolfowitz and you have a full house.

6. Hmm. Feith I am not familiar with but his name was just mentioned
on an earlier Franklin thread from tonight. I did see a link about him from seemslikeadream on last night's Miller thread. I will have to go find it and read it now. I know Wolfie is part of PNAC and surely fits in here but I am not sure how.
