Will we have WW3 or will we have MIHOP?
Edited on Tue May-11-04 03:27 PM by liberalnproud
OK. I know this has been discussed in the last week or so already. But I wanted to revisit this at this time because now, we have a video of an American contractor vicously murdered.

This is gonna be on the news for the next 48 hours front and center. "Our top story tonight....."

The topic of debate was the first release of the torture pictures, then the second, and then the admission that there were more, and videos, and it was much much worse.

So again traveling with my theories of why the photos were leaked in the first place, I suggested perhaps the reasons were;

1. To inflame the Arab world, cause more violence and retribution, and getting the PNAC's WW3 on

or

2. Set-up for another MIHOP

Now you just know this gruesome killing is not gonna sit well with the American public. It doesn't sit well with me as well. But, now that the scenario has advanced further and we are probably going to see more retribution killing, which of the situations above are you leaning towards if any.

Edit for a ?

2. It is sad isn't it.
That was on of my first thoughts. Well now the anger at the DOD will turn to anger at the murderers of this man.

3. or...
it could simply be that these Iraqis snatched some random American and decided to kill him. Everything that happens is not necessarily a big part of the cabal.

4. You could very well be right.
But you have to admit the timing is suspect.
