The November Elections Are Here: Can Usama Come Out To Play?

Terrorism, terrorism, terrorism! Lock your doors, duct tape your house and shake in fear. It's that time again. This commercial says that if you vote Democrat the terrorists have won! I wonder who made the commercial and who paid for it. I could care less for Democrats or Republicans, but I don't want the terrorists to win! Oh no, that can't happen.

Need I remind you of our recent batch of terrorists? Let's see, this particular terrorist planned to use a “dirty bomb” at football stadiums but this terrorist didn't have a bomb but he had plenty of paper and plastic bags. He was a lone 20-year-old grocery bagger from Wisconsin named Jake. There were some terrorists from Miami who had planned to bomb the federal building in Miami and the Sears tower in Chicago. Their only problem is that they had no connection to Al-Qaeda, no bombs and no weapons. They did not even have money for food.

The FBI, DHS and others are willing to use these pushovers to gain a bit of news coverage to keep the population in fear. Later these so-called “terrorists” are throughly debunked the story gets buried in the back of the newspaper. Are there real terrorists out there? Of course there are because the war in Iraq is an incubator for terrorism.

If you were wondering about Al-Qaeda you have to ask yourself whose payroll are they on? Originally they were on the payroll of the United States government. During the cold war Ronald Reagan had the CIA fund and train the “Mujahideen” meaning those who participate in Jihad to fight against the Soviet Union who were trying to invade Afghanistan. If you don't believe me it's on the CIA's own website:

Covert action gained a new urgency under President Ronald Reagan and his Director of Central Intelligence William Casey. The United States met the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan with aid to the Afghan mujahidin. Reagan also directed CIA to support the anti-Communist Contras fighting the Sandinista regime in Nicaragua.

In December 1981, Reagan issued Executive Order 12333, which gave CIA the exclusive right to conduct covert action unless the President decided that another agency would be more appropriate to attain a specific objective.

During Reagan's second term, CIA expanded its headquarters complex in Northern Virginia. Like President Eisenhower did for the original building, President Reagan helped break ground for the addition in 1984. “--"Our First Line of Defense" Presidential Reflections on US Intelligence

CIA trained and funded the Mujahideen, and through the help us USAID and the University of Nebraska helped to create a fervor for militant Islam:

“Zbigniew Brzezinski, former U.S. National Security Advisor, has openly admitted that U.S. operatives were already in Afghanistan stirring up trouble before the Soviets invaded in 1979. The U.S. goal, as part of its Cold War strategy, was to draw the U.S.S.R. into a quagmire, and the long-term military action successfully drained the Soviet Union until its ultimate demise. Afghan fighters willingly accepted covert U.S. assistance to repel the Soviet invasion, which fueled more than two decades of war (civil war continued after the Soviets pulled out in 1989) and entrenched the violent warlord system and social chaos that ultimately gave rise to the Taliban. The militant Islamic fundamentalists who turned their wrath on the World Trade Center and Pentagon are part of the blowback created by this U.S. foreign policy.

It turns out that funding and building camps to train Afghan fighters against the Soviets wasn't enough. In its zeal to topple the U.S.S.R. and eradicate communism, the U.S. government also helped to define, shape, and inculcate what is now referred to as radical militant Islam by training the minds of Afghan children. In the early 1980s, the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) provided funding to the University of Nebraska-Omaha and its Center for Afghanistan Studies to develop textbooks (more than 200 titles) in the Dari and Pashtu languages for distribution in Afghanistan. During Soviet occupation, regional military leaders helped the U.S. smuggle millions of copies of these primers into Afghanistan. The textbooks are filled with violent images and militant Islamic teachings -- talk of jihad and drawings of guns, bullets, soldiers, and mines -- to stimulate resistance against invasion. Students were taught to count, for example, with illustrations showing tanks, missiles, and landmines. The books have served as the Afghan school system's core curriculum ever since, steeping a generation of schoolchildren in violence and hatred.

Humanitarian aid workers in Afghanistan now assisting in the reopening of schools have been shocked at the content of the textbooks. In one 100-page book an aid worker counted 43 pages containing violent images or passages. The Taliban, which seized control of the government in 1996, continued to use the books after its censors purged human faces in keeping with its fundamentalist code, with only more gruesome results. One page, for example, shows a headless resistance fighter with a bandolier and a Kalashnikov slung from his shoulder. Text on the page includes a verse from the Koran and a tribute describing the mujaheddin as men who will sacrifice their wealth and life itself to impose Islamic law on the government.

The White House and USAID spokespersons are unapologetic about both the violent and religious content of the textbooks. "I think we were perfectly happy to see these books trashing the Soviet Union," said Chris Brown, head of book revision for USAID's Central Asia Task Force. Although taxpayer funds may not be used for religious instruction overseas, USAID spent $51 million on the University of Nebraska-Omaha's education programs in Afghanistan from 1984 to 1994, and in January the government announced that another $6.5 million of USAID funds would be used to provide new, revised textbooks and teacher training kits. The books are being purged to remove references to rifles and killing, but Koranic verses and Muslim tenets remain.

The U.S. government used an entire generation of Afghan schoolchildren as pawns in its war against communism, and the brutal price for this illegal action is being felt not only in Afghanistan, but in the U.S. as well. The methods being used on U.S. students are only slightly more subtle, but we experience the backlash of militaristic training in the blind support being given to the administration's "war on terrorism." The Pentagon has figured out how important it is to indoctrinate young people into militarism. The peace movement must work to counter this strategy with a focus on young people of its own.” --The Washington Post, March 23, 2002

It is a match made in Hell, turn innocent schoolchildren into militants to fight for US led wars or if necessary use them for terrorism but put them on the FBI's top ten list. If they are captured, they are expendable and a few rounds of CIA torture will make them forget what they know. George Bush always says, “If you are talking to Al-Qaeda, we want to know about it.” I haven't gotten any calls from Afghanistan or Pakistan so there is no need to listen to my conversations. These groups do not even use public phone systems, they are either on encrypted VoIP networks or some sort of Satellite phone.
As for the “Patriot” act, I have yet to see any domestic terrorists besides the above mentioned hoaxes to be foiled by the use of it. The patriot act is being used in strip clubs, and libraries which has nothing to do with terrorism.

"I don't know that it's been used in a public corruption case before this," said Mark Corallo, a spokesman for the Justice Department.
An attorney for one of the defendants in the Galardi case said he researched the matter for hours Tuesday and came to the same conclusion.

"I have discussed this with lawyers all over the country, and if the government has done this before, then this is definitely the first time it has come to light," said Las Vegas attorney Dominic Gentile, who represents former Clark County Commissioner Lance Malone, Galardi's lobbyist.

Two of Nevada's lawmakers blasted the FBI for employing the act in the Galardi probe, saying the agency overstepped its bounds.
Sen. Harry Reid, D-Nev., said Congress intended the Patriot Act to help federal authorities root out threats from terrorists and spies after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks.

"The law was intended for activities related to terrorism and not to naked women," said Reid, who as minority whip is the second most powerful Democrat in the Senate.

"Let me say, with Galardi and his whole gang, I don't condone, appreciate or support all their nakedness. But having said that, I haven't heard anyone say at any time he was involved with terrorism."

Rep. Shelley Berkley, D-Nev., said she was preparing an inquiry to the FBI about its guidelines for using the Patriot Act in cases that don't involve terrorism. The law makes it easy for citizens' rights to be abused, she said.

"It was never my intention that the Patriot Act be used for garden-variety crimes and investigations," Berkley said.
But Corallo insisted lawmakers were fully aware the Patriot Act had far-reaching implications beyond fighting terrorism when the legislation was adopted in October 2001.

"I think probably a lot of members (of Congress) were only interested in the anti-terrorism measures," Corallo said. "But when the Judiciary Committee sat down, both Republicans and Democrats, they obviously discussed the applications, that certain provisions could be used in regular criminal investigations." --Las Vegas Review Journal

Let's be real here, these supposed terrorists that are in our country are nothing more than an elaborate facade to pass more legislation that will curb the liberties of Americans. If there is another terrorist attack in America I won't be looking for Al-Qaeda, I will be looking for the Bush Administration. Cui Bono? Who benefits from terrorism? I could name 10 major corporations linked to the Bush Administration who are making money hand over fist due to terrorism.
Look around you, the American Union is being established right under your nose. The amount of Mexicans and other Latin Americans coming across the border is an invasion. Wherever they go they leave towns in ruins. Mexico benefits from illegal aliens, their population is decreased but the money they make in America is being sent back to Mexico and in 30 years Mexicans will completely dominate the political spectrum in America by sheer numbers.

The America we knew and loved is but a memory in our hearts. Families would drive for miles on Sundays to explore America and now that has been replaced by toll roads, transponders and check points. Americans aren't friendly anymore because they are gripped by the the specter of terrorism. If our children exhibit some sort of intelligence or rebellious behavior they are drugged immediately which in most cases leads to suicide attempts or they lose the spark that made them special.

November is right around the corner and politicians are pulling out the bag of dirty tricks and as soon as they are elected they will begin fleecing the population and lining their pockets. This is what we have been reduced to. I guess that saying is true, “You get the government you deserve.”
