Bush/Rove Plan to Campaign on NSA Crimes | 34 comments (34 topical, editorial, 0 hidden)

Re: What a happy surprise Crescent Cleansing must (4.00 / 2)

...and the congratulatory hugs for the benevolance in dispersing the victims as far and wide as possible. The profits made in states a thousand miles from home were a small sacrifice by these noble landowners who opened their doors, for a fee.

I feel certain that many innocent, good hearted American Muslims would have stood up for the rights of the exploited Katrina victims, but they were silenced in wrongful incarceration.

Anyone even loosely associated with PETA should be nervous because that's already been labeled by the media as extremist and terror related.

Iran? The administration caught them selling electricity to Iraqis....can't have that, now, can we?

Muslims and Mennonites were among the first (none / 1)

to arrive in the theatre, quietly slipping in, slipping past where necessary, rowing little boats, pulling people to land, handing out water, blankets, dry shoes, first aid, all without fanfare or press conferences or photo ops. It was in essence a covert operation.

There are many different kinds of heroes, those who stand in front of the tank, as well as those who roll under the tank, let the air out of the tires, put sugar in the gas tank, change clothes, and discreetly roll out on the other side and take their place among the admiring crowd, licking an ice cream cone...

I mentioned in another post that the reason for placing such a high priority on ELF, PETA, etc is that they do not harm people or animals, they harm inanimate objects, which have value to the enemy. And they also are committed to Resistance, which the enemy fears, and with good reason. :)

Re: Muslims and Mennonites were among the first (none / 0)

It didn't take me long to check into that nonprofit's spokesman. He has a long history of nasty rhetoric designed to discount legitimate concerns against big business.

It's all about the money.

Nope
:)...it belongs here.

They are the ones pushing hard to tie the elf/alf groups to domestic terrorit financing by groups such as PETA, Humane Society and a concerned physician's group.

These all go back to what the NSA is spying on and manufacturing evidence for prosecution, building to benign groups as associated with domestic terrorism.

Ohh, duh. gotcha. (4.00 / 2)

Good thing the FBI is on the case, to root out lurking evildoers with suspected Humane Society links.

You can tell by the name, "Humane Society" that it's anti-American. They are getting so bold.

Re: Ohh, duh. gotcha. (none / 1)

Go ahead and laugh. You see how easy it is when the network decides who to accuse of terrorist ties. It's no accident that the Berman PR and CCF have been building this case for the public through media propaganda.

These guys testify before Congress in the same capacity Bodansky did. When they're tied together, Rove still controls the terrorism/spying PR and it's now moved to serious domestic groups prosecution. In testimony, they have equated Humane Society donations as going to ELF/ALF terrorist acts...same as what they've done to others.

It is a somewhat bitter laugh (none / 1)

US has stolen thousands if not millions, of peoples' Zakat taxes since 911, well not so much after the first year, obviously, but just try to find an org that does humanitarian work in Palestine that has not been declared a terror organization, and will make you a person of even greater interest than you already were. Their "justification" for this is that none of them were willing to refuse aid to widows and orphans of suicide bombers.

And no one at all has mentioned that neither Red Cross nor United Way, nor any charity in the US refuses services to dependents of Americans who die committing crimes, or are in prison for them.

Not that a whole lot of charity or help of any kind gets to those people, but if they call United Way for example, and say, is there a food bank in my area, nobody says hey wait a minute, your husband was killed in the commission of an armed robbery, therefore you are ineligible for help from the food bank.

Re: It is a somewhat bitter laugh (none / 1)

That's the point I was referring to. Thank you. In all I find in researching, the circle always closes on an innocent compassionate effort from people that the government prosecutes.

Most Americans will not admit this until they are the one being prosecuted for humanitarian purposes. Some never will.

It's been happening and it's happening still.
