Terror ties to Iran

[MadisonProgressive]

This will be the attack that justifies the resinstatement of the draft and gives us the excuse to invade Iran.

1. Tucker Carlson and a Repug congressman say so!

Then I'm convinced!!!! :sarcasm:

The Repugs are desperate for something big to take TraitorGate off the front burner.

[MadisonProgressive]

2. I don't think so. This is all part of the PNAC master plan.

13. Tucker probably sucks Weldon's dick

I won't watch Tucker's stupid show on MSNBC and I don't care to see his shit posted in DU anymore than I care when some misguided soul posts Tom Friedman's crap.

[SlavesandBulldozers]

3. actually in the article he says

he doesn't advocate that.

that's not to say he's not a shill. he seems to be angling this as basically a diss of the intel community. and why oh why would he be doing that i wonder?

[MadisonProgressive]

4. Kill 2 birds with 1 stone

I believe that they are planning on reinstating the draft and attacking Iran. It is a logical path on the PNAC plan for world domination.

5. they're coming to kill us all! Don't you get it ? We need to pre-emptively

nuke the planet. Don't worry about the exit plan. Time for that later.:crazy:

6. Heh, guess it ain't top secret anymore, since he wrote a friggen book

about it.

Cripes, read the write-up linked in the article to Barnes & Noble on this guys book. It's like he took the "plots" from Moore's and Clark's books and just sort of turned it around a bit.

What's even more stunning, Congressman Weldon tried to warn American intelligence about the attack-but no one in America's intelligence community would listen.

How did Congressman Weldon know about it? Because of a secret source, an intelligence contact code-named Ali who has been a treasure trove of reliable intelligence-intelligence that, despite Congressman Weldon's strenuous efforts, has been routinely ignored by the CIA and the rest of America's intelligence services.

But in Countdown to Terror, Congressman Weldon lets you know what the CIA doesn't want to know. You'll learn, straight from Ali's actual reports: Why Iran will decide the next terror strike on America, How a major planned terror strike was called off because the terrorists thought it would help President Bush politically, Why Iran, not al Qaeda, is the command post of radical Islamic terror, Who is really undercutting American efforts to create a peaceful, stable Iraq, Why Iran is like the Soviet Union in the 1980s: extremely dangerous, the iron glove behind all our enemies-yet on the verge of internal collapse, The Iranian nuclear program: red-hot and more advanced than you think.

Congressman Weldon's sharing of vital intelligence with you, the reading public, is unprecedented. But it is necessary so that the American people can be informed and pressure our government to do what needs to be done to protect our country, fix our still-broken intelligence services, and win the war on terrorism.

7. Looks like part of a bushie hit piece on the CIA

Not the Porter Goss CIA, the 'Plame' era CIA...

snip>
That person was a member of the French intelligence service. And he told the guy, 'You shouldn't be talking to American members of Congress.' I called the operations guy back on the phone and said, why did you lie to me? You told me that you were going to have one of our people meet with this guy in Paris. You had somebody from French intelligence.

And he said, well, Congressman, to be honest with you, we trust the French intelligence service. I said, that's ridiculous. But even if you do trust them, why did you lie to me? Why didn‘t you tell me that you were going to have somebody from the French intelligence...

CARLSON: Well, that's a great question. What's the answer? Why would a CIA officer lie to a ranking member of Congress, A? And, B, why wouldn't the CIA want to follow up on the information about the whereabouts of Osama bin Laden? It doesn‘t make sense.

WELDON: No, it doesn't make any sense, Tucker.

8. Notice that he's blaming the CIA for not finding Osama.

9. Um...since we've been throwing threats Irans way for a while now.

wouldn't them attacking us just be a policy of pre-emptive self defense?

[TomClash]

10. How nuts is this?

A fifth grader could figure out that we would counterattack. So why would Iran attack the US?

[Disturbed]

11. Iran doesn't seem to be a suicidal country.

They are not stupid either. They know how much the Bush Regime wants to overthrow them and are preparing for an attack. Now that the Iraq Govt. has signed a Military Alliance with Iran things are getting real interesting.

[MadisonProgressive]

12. Who said Iran would attack us?

If the guvmint says they did - it will be so. This is Bushworld. I personally don't even know for sure if OBL even exists or ever did.
