The Fake Terror Agenda And
Where It's Headed

Begin Excerpt -

The latest airline terror threat by Abdulmutallab, the underwear bomber, was as phony as the previous shoe bomber Richard Reid. A terrorist wannabe simple can't set off plastic explosives with a match or chemicals that create a mild flame. It takes a blasting cap or very high intensity flame. If even low ranking military people know this, certainly the government's blame-all, super-powerful and infinitely-resourceful, terrorist creation, al Qaeda, knows it. Nevertheless, the hype of endless government spokespersons and media pundits covering this story non-stop is being used to justify yet another terror offensive--this time in lowly Yemen, a key choke point in the oil tanker network of the Middle East. The hapless public, in turn, is going to have to endure another escalation in body searches in order to save us from terror. The shoe bomb threat required that everyone remove their shoes during airport screening, but that simply shifted explosives concealment to another part of the body. Now the public is going to be forced to submit to a "digital strip search" during screening, and even that won't catch certain explosives hidden inside internal body cavities.
