Anybody else suspicious of the timing of the "thwarted" London attacks?
J Bananas:
OK, yes. I have considered and I do consider the amount of truth that gets filtered in every situation of importance from the government, to the media, to the people. It's just that this time, I really don't see what any government stands to gain by a "false flag operation", which you and bryan like to include in your vocabulary so often. Straying attention from his failed wiretap initiative doesn't seem like a high priority on Bush's agenda, despite how crackheaded he appears. I want to know why Bush or any government would feel the need to stage this incident when the political climate of US/UK isnt drastically unstable right now. Why wouldn't they wait for some other time?
J Bananas:
And I wont try to discredit or dismiss nearly any news source because I don't believe that there are truly evil corporations out there. It feels right for me to not trust anyone whole heartedly, wether it be Bill OReilly or Alex Jones, anyone who pretends to have answers to things is a crackpot

Well there are 2 issues present here firstly this reinforces fear in the average person, also just look at what is going to enable them to do, bring in sweeping draconian powers which will force all europeans to be fingerprinted and eye scanned, it says that under security we can trample all over your rights. Furthermore the congressional elections are to be held in November the fear builds up and it looks like right on cue there is going to be another attack. What do they have to gain? fear, political capital, a wider mandate for military action to include both syria and Iran, a reason for "modifying human rights" and in america a reason for spitting on the constitution once again. In addition people like rumsfeld and cheney are inextricably linked and benefit from mass scares and wars. Cheney of course. through Haliburton.
As for truly evil corporations, I consider the manipulation of countries into war to be evil, (oil companies and arms companies like haliburton) maybe you dont and just consider that politics. However I am going to be honest enough to say that I do respect the fact that you will respond and not just ignore the postings.

This is the problem though J Bananas those lying bastards have put thousands of americans and british sodliers to death in Iraq. Now, when they are capable of creating a lie on such a grand and destructive scale, whose impact is just unimaginable don't you see that it will make people ask how the hell can you trust anything they are saying.

Only an ape would find it to hard to imagine the possibility that it didn't go down exactly like the news station said it did.
