I'm returning to the fetal position...I want my mommy
quote....
And so it was again this week when The Washington Post outlined the Pentagon's plan to put dirty war -- by death squad, snatch squad, secret armies, subversion, torture and terrorism -- at the very heart of America's military philosophy. Not defense against declared enemies, not deterrence of potential foes, but conducting "continuous" covert military operations in countries "where the United States is not at war" is now the Pentagon's "highest priority," according to the new "campaign plan for the global war on terror" issued by Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld.

snip....
Perhaps most ominously, the plan makes copious preparations for expanding the range of the war on terror even further. The trigger for these new actions is another terrorist strike on U.S. soil. Oddly enough, the Bush faction views such an unspeakable horror as an "opportunity," Pentagon officials told the Post; it would provide a "justification," they said, for hitting already-targeted individuals, groups and states that for various political reasons have not yet been subjected to what Bush likes to call, in his bloodthirsty parlance, "the path of action."

end quote......

1. Mommy says get the hell up and fight!
First of all, this is nothing new - we've been doing everything the article states since the beginning of recorded history ... always in "our name."

And if you don't like it, get active - it's the antidote to despair and what we need to defeat existentialist angst.

5. Fight WHAT?
Do you have an army with AK47'S? They can't wait for another attack which I'm sure they will be responsible for?

6. We're fighting insecurity and fear
Coming at 'em with weapons would give 'em the excuse they need to strip us of the last of our civil rights. Instead, I was part of a massive, peaceful demonstration on Saturday. Hearing the mainstream media shrink our numbers only demonstrates that the powers that be know *exactly* how many of us there were.

How busy do you want to get? There's lots more to be done, but none of it with the barrel of a gun - that's their language, not ours.

4. They were probably disappointed McVey failed to provide that opportunity.
PNACers pushed Clington thereafter to pursue the M.E. advancing that McVey was really a Muslim plot, if you can imagine that shit!!!

Just remember, these people are fucking crazy and they WILL pass and perish quite naturally.

Stand tall and witness the fall of crazy mo-fos whose actions will inadvertently teach and advance humanity's foresight of future crazy mo-fos.

:hug:
