When will the Reichstag Fire Occur?
Is it a flight of madness to even consider that we could see the re-enactment of January 30, 1933. In a world gone mad and imitating Orwellian fiction it may not take too much paranoia to think on such an event.

14. One of the reasons I subscribe to MIHOP
is the very fact that it occurred on 9/11. For us Americans, 9/11
represents an emergency of some sort.This is why whoever planned it
must have been an American. Any Middle Eastern terrorist would have certainly chosen some other symbolism that may be culturally more relevant to him/her than 9/11.I believe that at one time Rumsfeld was talking about Full Spectrum Domination of Information and appointed
Poindexter of Iran-Contra fame as the Czar of this program.I have a sneaking suspicion that the continued repetition of the term 9/11 was a propaganda device to instill in Americans a fear of the terrorists from the Middle East.

Just my thoughts. Would welcome anybody's response because I have not seen this angle anywhere.

3. It is eerie...
How life in 2004 imitates the repeat of 1933 Germany... I always believed this could not happen here.....the present so imitates the past..I hope I am mistaken....

4. Already happened:
911

A better question to ask at this point, if you're thinking along those lines, is, "When will the Night of the Long Knives Occur?"

11. You're right. That's the sequel.
So, who fits the bill? CIA vs. FBI, some think tanks, log cabin republicans or something else?

13. Freepers, believe it or not.
All that anti-lib hatred, venom, and eliminationalist rhetoric is bound to get someone hurt sooner or later.

9. I'm more worried about Kristallnacht
against liberals, minorities, gays, etc. Hate crimes have risen over the past few years. I'm just worried that the neanderthals are organized enough to pull something off on a larger scale.

12. Me too - that would be the next step in their quest to follow Hitler's
play book - almost in proper sequence and to the letter.

But I will not go quietly into the boxcars/cargo planes.
