Well God Damn... Maybe Dick Cheney Will Get His WWIII After All

[WillyT]

Watch out for the ripples on this one.

1. Mushroom clouds are not 'ripples".

[oldtime dfl_er]

2. terrible sinking feeling

but I hope you're not right

[HughBeaumont]

3. And maybe that's what will finally make the sheeple stand up to these fucking bullies?

Or will they meekly crawl in their basements, pray to whoever they worship and bask in the shockwaves and fire?

Someone needs to bring this fucker down. NOW. He's practically hovering over a fucking grave and everyone still FEARS him and the Failure Fuhrer? Send these criminals to prison where they belong! Grow a spine already. Jesus Christ.

4. Why? Who's Going To Start A War Over This?

It's certainly a tragedy. However, my understanding is that both the military and the Islamic crazies wanted her dead. I don't think there's a big enough secular continent to overthrow the current government.

6. Was't she a ray of hope for the people

It seems she a person who offered some sanity to that country. And now she is gone.

7. India will exploit any internal strife in Pakistan

5. This may have been what the smoke signal called for.

8. This ties in with the US announcement Xmas eve...

Gates announced that US troops would be entering into Pakistani territory soon, ingongruously he then said that he was entering into talks with Musharraf to get permission to do just that. Whatever, the Bhutto murder fits the needs of the moment well.

Her death will spark huge riots all over the country, that will bring back the not so long ago cancelled martial law. The PAkistani Army will be spread thin taking care of all the riots. IN effect hog-tieing the anti-American element(who are strong) in the Armies top staffers. This will allow a cover for another ill-equipped, and undermanned effort to find bin Laden(he has been carefully preserved for this election year). Gates though in Rummy tradition also announced that no 'surge' of troops will take place in Afgahnistan.

Futile, incompetence, un-necessary killings, disruptions of sovereign nations...same old shit, different day. Cheney couldn't get Iran, and omnce again the ignorant, stupid Democrat leaders and members in general went on a celebration spree never remembering that President Cheney has never been known not to have a backup disaster already layed out.

I have a SpecWarOps son due back very soon from his 3rd tour Afghan-Iraq-Afghan, Some better hope to whatever piles of dung they worship he comes back breathing and whole!

10. and now reports that Afghanistan's Hamid Karzai met with her yesterday..

a warning maybe?? heads up or a threat???

[Didereaux]

11. Karzhai is 'our' man, more likely a set up.

12. Gotta love this New World Diplomacy--"Let the chips fall where they may..."

Hell, anyone with a spark of knowledge of the region and 25 functioning brain cells would know that the region was a powderkeg yet Condi couldn't be bothered to go there even with CRITICAL ELECTIONS with worldwide relevance were about to happen.

I've got a freaking BS in English Ed and I saw this mess coming quite a while ago.

14. omigawd a.....

blonde, educated, intelligent, teacher....!!!! I CAN DIE HAPPY i HAVE SEEN A MIRACLE!

(that was a compliment by the way (for those who might have missed that)) heheh

[blondeatlast]

16. Well, I like to think so, anyway; though I'm no longer in the classroom.

Thank you. :hi:

13. I just hope the Pakistani nukes are being held in

a safe place while all of the chaos is going on. Did I say a safe place in Pakistan? sorry.

15. Pat Robertson put some pressure on him

Remember, he claims God warned him of a major disaster of biblical proportions by the end of 2007, and he's running out of time. Can't have Pat looking like a liar now, or nobody will buy his 2008 predictions next week.
