Assassination plot foiled
Assassination plot foiled

An al-Qaeda (al-CIAduh) plot to blow up Tony Blair, George Bush and up to FIFTY other world leaders has been foiled.

Cops in Turkey yesterday unveiled a huge arsenal of weapons and explosives found stashed in preparation for a terror doomsday.

They are convinced the target was next month’s Nato summit in Istanbul.

And they believe the aim was to wipe out the West’s commanders of the War on Terror in an outrage that would dwarf the impact of September 11.

Alas, alak --I am dying to comment on this headline, but I will refrain, so that I don't end up in Guantanamo Bay.

Cheers,

1. Who knows?
There was another report that the whole thing was "made up".

There is a "game" being played,...and, in my view, the only real players are those who own the board (that would be how humanity is being treated,...as a board).

my other thought, in case it was real, was ....

2. What brave men are Bush, Blair et al. Facing such threats
Those nasty Al Quaeda meanies. Let's all rally behind brave George and sidekid Tony. Such strenghth, almost God-like. Jesus is surely on their side.

U-S-A, U-S-A, U-S-A, U-S-A!

11. Probably the same ones who planted these Weapons of
Mass Deception.


Why would Al Qaeda want to kill Bush and Blair? They have done more to catalyze Arab resistance to the West than the Wahabbis could ever have hoped to have done on their own.

9. I'm skeptical of all these claims lately, of foiled plots..
If we, supposedly the strongest nation on Earth and with all the resources, cannot seem to do jack shit to curtail Al Quaida, why is it that countries like Turkey and Jordan are claiming to have foiled these grand plots? I think the countries are looking for money from our war on terra fund... It just smells fishy.

14. That's because it's actually 'al-CIAduh.'
Al-CIAduh freelances for Karl Rove, and I am *sure* they will be called into service as Bush's approval ratings continue to tank after July's botched, phony 'handover' in Iraq. It all goes down the sewer for them after July 1, and only an act of terror (and Diebold) can 'save' Bush. Al-CIAduh will be there for the Bush terror team, and the Code Red follow-up will surely follow.

This whole thing, since 9*11, bush and the boys and his cohorts in the rw media, the whole thing, has been like a bad, two-parter from the old BatMan series.

If there is a shark in the "wot" - I believe it has just been jumped.

An evil plot to blow up all the leaders of the free world -- dun dun dunnnnnn!

Why am I saying goddammit though? Maybe:
Damn it, I hope the authorities stay on top of this.
Damn it, I KNEW the evildoers would try this.
Damn it, when will the evildoers stop hating us for our freedoms?

Maybe I meant one of the above....hell Ashcroft, you gonna start telling me what the fuck I meant when I write "goddamnit"? Who the fuck do you think you are?

OHHHH! And you homeland security punks thought you had me. I don't plan on singing the Gitmo blues, you fuckers.

I) All of the above.
