tinfoil alert! something very fishy about these BA planes &

[ElsewheresDaughter]

military escorts.....who are we transporting here?

between yesterdays BA plane and its shanagins in LA and this feasco at Dulles today, begs asking ...is it Saddam?

1. Why wouldn't we just put Saddam on one of our military planes?

3. Gee...seems like

old times, the same as 911 when they used the jets..hmmm..

[daytondem]

8. I guess I don't see the point of using the BA plane

It would be a lot easier to sneak him in/out of the country in one of the our military cargo planes.

9. that may be against the Geneva conventions....

use of US or UK military planes :shrug:

10. They did it with all the Gitmo guys.

2. IF so...they are playing with "fire"...word get's out....shrub is toast

they are tired of all this crap...who cares about the sceurity detail of the rose bowl parade...this is not news.

People don't like it.

6. Just the regime tying to give the illusion of protecting the "homeland"

imho

I've read several stories that many of the groudings thus far are the result of "mistakes" or were otherwise unfounded. They're just doing this to keep the fear level up and give the appearance that * is protecting us little people - my take.

US to France: "Ground that plane, trrrsts on board!"
France to US: "We did, NO trrrsts on board!"
US to France: "Whoops, those were tourists, not trrrsts. Remain vigilant"
France to US: "blow it out your a$$, you moron..."
Media to US: "BOO!...attacks...unprecedented security...blablabla...this just in - BOO!"
Sleeping citizen: "bush is God"
