A Winter Of Discontent

If you are like me you have long ago determined that the people of the United States of America are being manipulated and coerced, through a combined effort of the Corporate/Military/Industrial/Media complex, into accepting perpetual war and the loss of their civil liberties.

The shock and horror of 9-11 was the first discernible blow (though, of course, many of us believe that the Coup has been in development since the end of WW II), and the Powers That Be have made sure to keep the American people terrified with manufactured terror both domestic and abroad in order to capitalize on their fear.

Please be aware that this modus operandi of justifying invasions of sovereign countries and cracking down on domestic opposition was proposed many years ago when John F Kennedy was President and the crisis over Cuba was just as much of a threat to national security as the so called War on Terror is today.

The Joint Chiefs of Staff at that time drew up and approved a plan called “Operation Northwoods”. This only came to light a few months after 9-11 when James Bamford released a book entitled “Body of Secrets” in which the details of this brutal scheme were revealed. According to the secret and long-suppressed documents Bamford uncovered, the Joint Chiefs proposed launching a war of terror on their own populace in order to manipulate them into supporting a war against Cuba. Naturally, they also intended on falsely pinning the terrorism on Castro’s Communists.

Apparently, Kennedy refused to sign on to this ignoble and corrupt plan. This episode may have been the final straw for Kennedy, who had already suffered much because of the CIA’s incompetence and idiocy. Kennedy may have then attempted, through secret channels, to make peace with Castro. One could speculate that perhaps this is what convinced the military leadership to turn against him and tacitly aid Kennedy’s assassination.

Unfortunately, the current President, Dubya, is no Jack Kennedy. If Bush received a similar proposal just after he took office would he have approved it? We know that he is a sock puppet of the militaristic, neo-conservative elite. Bush has even spoken at the American Enterprise Institute and basically endorsed their Project for the New American Century. If I were a betting man, I’d wager Bush was ready to sign in a heartbeat. His beloved lucky “trifecta” was thus inevitable.

It’s long past time for people to start waking up. There are just too many obvious parallels between what was proposed then and what is happening now.

Of course, this modern version of “Operation Northwoods” is a much more expansive and coordinated one. The size and scope of this plan is incredible and I can’t fault those who simply can’t comprehend how they could pull it off. I agree, it is a massive undertaking. But when you are dealing with an “ends justify the means” ideology and the individuals espousing that ideology have at their disposal the greatest military machine ever and a secret, unaccountable Black Ops agency, well then maybe you should open your mind to the possibility.

The fact that we just passed the 40th anniversary of JFK’s assassination, and that the modern day Keane Commission seems destined to repeat a cover up ala the Warren Commission, has not gone unnoticed. There can be no doubt that the Bush White House is stonewalling the enquiry regarding the Saudi connection to 9-11. So the recent decision to allow the Bushies to EDIT the information on private briefings, information the commission was seeking for months, before turning it over smells like collusion. Even more ominous is the quiet way they managed to get the feisty Max Cleland to quit the panel investigating 9-11. He was causing trouble, and it sure seems like he’s been muzzled.

Consider this. The Media is reporting that “Al Qaeda” is up to something big. General Tommy Franks, the war hero/criminal who led Centcom during the invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq, recently made a very troubling assertion during an interview with “Cigar Afficionado” magazine. Franks plainly said that one successful attack using weapons of mass destruction on American soil could result in the abandonment of the U.S. constitution and the installation of a military police state ruling via martial law.

Now consider this. Vice President Dick Cheney and Homeland Security czar Tom Ridge are on record as saying that the next wave of attacks are “inevitable” and “a matter of when, not if”.

I submit that if George W Bush’s poll numbers keep slipping and it becomes apparent that even fixed voting machines can’t guarantee his incumbency, another terrorist attack will occur - timed to ensure the current leadership retains power. Besides, truth has a way of trickling through to the people. How long can they keep the cover up going in a free society? One 9-11 widow is suing the Bush Administration and you would have to think that eventually the mainstream Media will report on it.

I suspect that they have their eyes set on somewhere in California as the next site for the next attack. There might just be a real good reason that Arnold Schwarzenegger was maneuvered into the Governorship. Perhaps he is viewed as the perfect candidate to be their West Coast Rudy Giuliani. After all, the greatest perceived threat to the current Administration is the “Left Coast Liberal Establishment”. An attack on the West Coast would be poetic justice to the twisted minds running the neo-conservative agenda.

This coming winter will be one of trepidation and unease for many of us who are waiting for the other shoe to drop.

Be afraid, be very afraid. Just be aware of whom you should fear.

are letting it happen so some one wants all this mess. Now that really TEEs me off.

Is it me or has anyone seen DC lately? I still wonder about 9/11 when the SS pratically carried DC into the whitehouse bunker but left Bush out in the open. Maybe DC and the shadow government are really running the country and Bush is just the front guy.

You win the prize!

Does anyone here want to touch this or should I just slide back under my rock.
