why are you posting a thread on a unsubstantiated conjecture?

I am confused by your intentions here if it isn't to promote a conspiracy.

Just saying.

I am thinking the same. It just must of a coincidence that all this happens just before the UN meeting and 2 mos b4 the election. He also stayed that he would back Israel in a war against Iran. There are to many connections to once incident.

That smile on his face, almost a giggle, says to me that Rmoney knows something that no one else knows.

He owns Bibi and now Bishop Willard. When he calls, they immediately go through. Mittens "staff" is loaded with neo-cons who have close ties to the Likudniks. Plenty of reason to believe that the Bishop is doing what he can to please his sugar daddy and try to look "comander in chiefy" to the great unhinged.

My concern is that Bibi will try to launch an attack on the Iranian reactors in October in hopes of creating some kind of mess for President Obama that the Bishop will try to exploit.

“But if Mr. Romney was the official guest of honor, speaking for nearly 20 minutes in a conference room at the King David Hotel here, the unofficial man of the hour was sitting just to Mr. Romney’s left: Sheldon Adelson, the billionaire casino magnate who has donated tens of millions of dollars to Republican causes.”

on the movie in causing a mob, then blaming this supposedly spontaneous mob on killing diplomats, as if street rioters would have access...whole thing stinks.

As far as the verbiage goes, Mitt's just spewing typical repuke crap about Iran. And clearly Mitt's a bloodthirsty warmonger without any urging.
