Mack Sennett Terrorists
Posted by Jill | 8:13 AM
So another "terrorist" plot that has been in the works for a year and a half, involving a bunch of misfits, simply "thinking" about an attack they don't have the wherewithall to execute and that even if accomplished, would not produce the damage they think, has been uncovered by Federal officials by paying an "An informant with a criminal history including drug trafficking and racketeering ...in exchange for payments and a reduced sentence."

So in a year and a half, this bunch was still not able to get past the "thinking" phase, had a criminal being paid by the United States Government to get it going -- and the whole thing breaks the same weekend that the Bush Administration expands its War of Terror to Somalia? Anyone seeing a pattern here? And how convenient that this "plot" in the thinking stages since January 2006 was "broken" right in time for this week's presidential debates.

Not that the utter horseshittedness of the whole thing is stopping the MSM from its appointed rounds. The ABC affiliate in New York is trumpeting that one of the "terrorists" is

STILL ON THE LOOSE!!!!

and MSNBC cites a "chilling" attack.

What makes the inflation of the musings of a bunch of not-very-bright misfits so troublesome every time it happens is that there ARE very real threats to this country -- and the Bush administration, its acolytes in Congress, and the Presidential candidates who have no thing to offer but fear, are saying and doing nothing about the big picture of causes of terrorism. Ron Paul was absolutely, 100% right at the last Republican debate: they don't "hate us for our freedoms", they hate us for our oil grabs and our mindless, knee-jerk, unquestioning support for a bellicose, "shoot first and ask questions later" Israeli regime that the Bush Administration seems to want to emulate.
