Paranoia? Or Reality?

Paranoia? Or Reality?


Well Tesla said it so it must be true. How do I feel about the current discussion about earthquakes and US involvement? No Comment. Let's just take a look at a few key points.

  1. December 26, 2003 -- Southeastern Iran -- Not 12 months after the Famed "Axis of Evil" commentary. 31,000 dead, 30,000 injured, 75,600 homeless
  2. February 22, 2005 -- Central Iran. A week after Bush steps up rhetoric against the Islamic state
  3. March 6, 2002 -- Palimbang, Philippines. Right after the Philippine army is sent in to Basilan and Palimbang to try to capture the Abu Sayyaf Islamic rebels that captured and killed Christian missionaries ... the American army comes in ... with quite a rumble at its heels.
  4. Of course, don't forget the October 8, 2001 earthquake in Northern and Central Iran ... which caused damage in Iran AND Afghanistan ... lets see what was happening around the 8th of October of 2001 ...
  5. January 3, 2002 -- Mazar-e-Sharif, Afghanistan -- lets see ... what was happening then ... oh a couple weeks later, we occupied that city, the "Stronghold of Northern Afghanistan"
  6. 6. March 3, 2002; March 25, 2002; March 27, 2002; April 12, 2002 -- Hindu Kush, Afghanistan
  7. . A region well known for its frequent quakes ... but rarely are they above 7.0
  8. 7. May 1, 2003 -- Eastern Turkey. The US has no reason to wish ill upon one of their closest allies, right? Oh, there was this little issue here
  9. December 26, 2004 -- Sumatra. We know about this and its resulting Tsunami. Why they would be a target ... who knows. But the likelihood of two Islamic states getting hit the day after Christmas, two consecutive years ... And for those idiots who say "God" this or "God" that -- Your own scripture makes it clear this is not possible. YAHWEH SAID HE WOULDN'T HAVE ANOTHER FLOOD.

"Insult to Injury" update

Salon reported last month that Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington started charging wounded outpatient soldiers for their meals as of January 3, apparently ignoring Pentagon regulations that cap food costs for soldiers. The result of that policy is that wounded soldiers have been left holding the bag -- at a price tag of $250 a month.
WTF? Wounded soldiers are now having to pay for their own food? Wonder why they aren't making their recruiting quotas.

Hello! SUPPORT OUR TROOPS means the ones who gave their limb for us, not just their time.
