The Macedonia MIHOP

KOPJE, Macedonia, May 14 - Roughly two months after the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks on New York and Washington, a group of high-level officials met here in Macedonia's Interior Ministry to determine how their country could take part in the United States-led campaign against terror.

Instead of offering troops to support American soldiers fighting in Afghanistan, as other countries in the region had done, senior officials and police commanders conceived a plan to "expose" a terrorist plot against Western interests in Skopje, police investigators here say.

The plan, they say, involved luring foreign migrants into the country, executing them in a staged gun battle, and then claiming they were a unit backed by Al Qaeda intent on attacking Western embassies.

Wonder where they possibly got the idea?

Gosh, could you imagine what feats of trickery a hyperpower nation could pull off if it ever got such a notion?

But it couldn't happen here. No way, no how. Too many people would have to know and surely SOMEONE would spill the beans. No one knows how to keep a secret THAT well, do they?

Note from the article that it took a change in government for this operation to be blown open. And it was a SLOPPY job too.
