Dumm question - what's LIHOP/MIHOP?
I can't find it, can't figure it out, must be something good though, it's everywhere on GD.

Maybe a subliminal thing. Everytime I see LIHOP/MIHOP, I get a craving for pancakes. Hmmm.

:)

And no, I won't even THINK about asking this question on GD. I may be dumb, but I ain't crazy!

2. It's regarding the gov. stand on 9/11:
LIHOP = Let It Happen On Purpose
MIHOP = Made It Happen On Purpose

5. I don't know about 9/11, but
I'm thinking ...

LIHOP - Pearl Harbor
MIHOP - Tonkin Gulf

6. Pearl Harbor is alluded to in the smoking gun document which suggests LIHOP
This neocon plan for American imperialism was authored in part by Paul Wolfowitz and Scooter Libby:

http://www.newamericancentury.org/RebuildingAmericasDefenses.pdf

At page 51: "Further, the process for transformation, even if it is to bring a revolutionary change, is likely to be a long one, absent some catastrophic and catalyzing event -- like a new Pearl Harbor."

This document was published in September 2000.

10. IHOP is my favorite HOP...
and it won't start a flame war because LHOP/MHOP is debatable but IHOP is unquestionably good!

11. It's been answered
I'm a MIHOPer, with limitations. I don't believe the whole government was in on it, but I feel the terrorists clearly needed some help to pull that off.

12. I'm not sure whether I'm LIHOP or MIHOP when it comes to 9/11 but if it *wasn't*
one of those two choices then the amount of bumbling ineptitude in our government is absolutely astounding. I remember reading a quote from either Wolfowitz or Rumsfeld saying that they didn't know what was going on until they saw it on the news. :wow: So the highest members of our government hear of an attack on the US the same way the rest of us jokers did? And from the time the first plane went missing to the time it hit the WTC, *no one* thought to mention that fact to the guys in charge of protecting our country? If that's true then it's no wonder we waged war with the wrong freaking country. :sarcasm:

13. I'm still reading a book called 9/11 Synthetic Terror: Made In USA
Edited on Mon Jan-29-07 02:31 PM by mvd
By Webster Tarpley. While he's not a very personable narrator and the book seems like information overload at times, I find many of his arguments for MIHOP very convincing.

16. Picked it up FOR FREE at the Jan 27 march
I've not yet started reading it though.

I also picked up a bunch of 9/11 related DVDs for free.
