- It seems that our government has allowed ex-CIA agent
Osama Bin Laden and over 3,000 of his Al Queda terrorist regulars to fly
out of Afghanistan under the guise of evacuating Pakistani wounded. They
are now laughing at us as they sun themselves in Somalia and Abu Dhabi,
while our grunts are chasing their tails inside the caves of Tora
Bora.
-
- It is reported that the Tora Bora cubbyholes never held
more than 300 Al Queda fighters, instead of the thousands and thousands
touted by our ëintelligenceí agencies. The paltry 300 were
sent there as a diversion for the rubes watching on CNN.
-
- By agreement, the U.S. stopped bombing the airport at
Konduz to allow the humanitarian evacuation of mostly wounded native
Pakistani
Taliban troops, so that they could return to their country in exchange
for the cooperation we had received from Pakistan. While they were being
airlifted out, several charter planes of Russian design landed and left
at the same times, taking as many as 4,000 armed Al Queda terrorists out
of Afghanistan, including Osama Bin Laden.
-
- Apparently, the evacuation lasted almost a week, starting
around the third week of November. Our geniuses kept bombing and strafing
Tora Bora for weeks, even though the enemy was never there, to make sure
that our media got plenty of photo ops of the War on Terrorism making an
impressive amount of smoke and noise.
-
- I bet many of you have seen the fantastic weapons our
aircraft carry. They have special bombs that crater entire airport runways
so that they are not usable without months of repairs. So, I ask you, how
can it be that we have been "bombing" the airport at Konduz,
yet allowed planes to land on its runways? Doesn't bombing an airport make
it useless? Yet, thousands of Taliban fighters from Pakistan and thousands
more battle-hardened Al Queda terrorists escaped over several days during
the "pauses in bombing" by the USA. Something doesn't smell
right.
Yet it smells familiar; it smells like the Clinton administration telling
us one thing while it did another.
-
- Iraqi intelligence has warned our State Department that
if the U.S. captures Bin Laden and effectively ends the power of the Al
Queda to 'Be all you can be,' it will cause such a huge Islamic
fundamentalist
backlash that riots will occur in Jordan, Saudi Arabia and Egypt that won't
stop until their leaders are deposed and replaced with fundamentalist
mullahs
that would make the Taliban seem glamorous.
-
- So, Osama and company are secretly evacuated to safer
grounds while our President vows to 'get him.' It smells like the Bush
administration telling us one thing while doing another. They chose to
allow Bin Laden and his merry men to escape in the name of Muslim
fundamentalist
'stability,' a new oxymoron.
-
- Speaking of morons, many American are still reacting
to the new War On Terrorism with patriotic fervor, setting U.S. flags
rippling
on their car antennas, front porches and even their kids' tricycles.
-
- It doesn't matter to patriots that if any cop says
they're
a suspected terrorist for yelling at a meter maid, they can be arrested
and jailed without hearing the charges against them, without an attorney,
without a phone call and without bail. Next, they can be tried by a secret
court, convicted with secret evidence, then even executed in secret. They
can disappear off the face of the earth, grabbed up by the new Gestapo,
the USA PATRIOT Act Secret Police, while families wonder who is now
supposed
to raise and lower the nine-foot America flag every night in front of the
family home. It simply doesnít matter that all Civil Rights have
been trashed, because it's the other guy who's a suspect, not a
patriot.
-
- It doesn't matter that George Duhhhbya has enacted a
War-On-Terrorism economic stimulus package to save the free world. Thanks
to his brilliant defense of freedom, the supranational corporations no
longer have to pay any income taxes! In fact, they are being refunded for
past years, to the tune of 140 billion dollars. Billions of tax refunds
to IBM, GM, Ford - all FOG, "Friends Of George."
-
- Go ahead, America, try to fudge just a little on your
tax deductions; times are tight and you're running low on grocery money
more and more every month. Then expect an audit and perhaps armed agents
bursting into your home and business, confiscating and selling even the
shoes off your feet.
-
- Lower your heads for the yoke of the New World Order
to set gently on your necks, while IBM executives sail on their tax-free
yachts. They are now laughing at us as they sun themselves off the coasts
of Somalia and Abu Dhabi, echoed by the laughter of Osama Bin Laden,
lilting
in the warm, offshore breeze.
-
- Let's all sing, America the Beautiful.
