I read this and liked the last sentence, I agree except I don't believe in God, more power to him for taking on the Right Wing nuts and declaring his intention to regulate carbon emissions.

Obama's government is completely and utterly right-wing, although, admittedly, not quite as insane as Romney.

Iraqis cheering the toppling of Saddam's statue does not mean innocent Iraqis did not have their rights/lives violated.

Not even close. Money is spent on fighting terrorism because, in my view, it is about pride and about public relations, tourism etc. You would not vacation in a place if terrorists blew things up every day. Fighting cancer and heart disease conflict with business interests too.

TWo of them just fell out?


Yeah right

One falling out is suspicious, two falling out......were they cuffed together?

The news seems a bit surreal this morning.

Maybe I'm still asleep. If so what are you lot doing in my dream?

So that's why you are on in the a.m.?! Round all the blokes up before Abs gets home.

There's nowt wrong with planning ahead

Dodgy fuckers - they emphatically denied any drills previously.

I heard 2 interviews with that marathon competitor who insisted he'd witnessed signs of a drill the morning of the race. One where he was adamant about what he'd seen, and a later one where he sounded frightened, and started back-peddling a bit, and being careful to be courteous to the authorities.

And even now, they're saying 'the real thing' just happened to occur before this 'planned' drill took place - even though we've all seen the pictures of the men wearing the skull badges described. And the drill (which they're claiming they didn't get chance to put into practice before 'the real thing' just happened to take place) would perhaps explain the anomolies of people filmed scattering debris over others to make it appear they'd been in a bombing - and yes, actors and fake blood would have been present, because those are elements that are utilised in these drills.

Oh what a wobbly web we weave. I'm just glad most people around here don't fall for the, 'It's disrespectful to question', line.

HS Admits Boston Training Drill Involving Backpack Explosives Planned Months Before Marathon

The Department of Homeland Security has gone public with an admission that an exercise was planned months before the Boston Marathon bombings that involved backpacks being used to detonate explosives by rogue terrorists.

According to the DHS documents acquired by the Boston Globe, the agents were planning on conducting training exercises centered around a fictitious terrorist group called ‘Free America Citizens’, a group that would plant backpacks full of explosives around Boston that the detectives would be forced to track down. Ultimately, of course, this ended up happening at the Boston Marathon itself with precise accuracy. The Globe report reads that “the city was hit with a real terrorist attack executed in a frighteningly similar fashion.”

And the DHS isn’t denying that the training exercise manifested itself at the Boston Marathon, as detailed in the back-end article on the Boston Globe that I discovered while browsing the news.

“The real thing happened before we were able to execute,” a Boston police official told the Boston Globe in the report.

The exercise, labeled as “Operation Urban Shield,” was funded by a $200,000 Homeland Security grant. It was planned months before the Boston Marathon, and it was scheduled to ‘take place’ in official capacity this weekend, according to the sources. But the exercise admission lends further credence to the ignored eyewitness account of bomb sniffing dogs and bomb squads running a training exercise during the morning of the Boston Marathon. Was this training exercise part of Operation Urban Shield?

Interestingly, they specifically detailed that this terrorist group (that presumably is based off of ‘right wing extremists’ and the sovereign citizens movement) would carry a logo of a metal skull wearing an Uncle Sam hat. I’m not claiming there’s a relationship, but I find it funny that even their logo matched up with real events from the Boston Marathon bombings. It was in fact the apparent security at the event that was spotted wearing clothing adorning the image of skulls that turned out to be the logo for the Craft International private security firm.

I will be reporting more on Operation Urban Shield as more information becomes available.
