The new Vincent Bugliosi book, “The Prosecution of George W Bush For Murder”, has hit the Internet set and is off and running. The corporate media propagandists have completely ignored it. Having read it I am filled with several considerations, the first being we need to get the b*stard, the second nobody will follow up, and the third and even more distressing is his reaction. Until now I have heard in response to my third consideration. Kevin Barrett, Libertarian, running for Congress in Wisconsin, summed up my concern, as follows: Will Bush Play "Get-Out-of-Jail-Free" Card? I just listened to Vincent Bugliosi talking to Bobby Kennedy about his plan to prosecute Bush for murder. (Listen here.) 
It sounds like Bugliosi has an airtight case. If Bush leaves 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue next January, there should be a squad car waiting to pick him up.
Even if he somehow dodges the murder rap, sooner or later Bush will face dozens of charges of war crimes, kidnapping, torture, electoral fraud, maybe even high treason against the Constitution of the United States of America. Bush is a good bet to be our first ex-president to spend the rest of his life behind bars.
I say IF Bush leaves office next January because...well, he'd have to be crazy to step down.
Bush only has one card left to play: The get-out-of-jail-free card.
Set off a nuclear or biological weapon on American soil. Blame the usual suspects, "Muslim terrorists," and link them to Pakistan or Iran. Attack Pakistan or Iran, invoke Presidential Directive 51, suspend the Constitution, declare martial law, intern dissidents and Muslims in FEMA camps, seize control of the other branches of government, and suspend the elections "until order has been restored."
A high-risk move? Sure. But cornered rats sometimes make high-risk moves.
There are several reasons why Bush and his consigliere/puppetmaster Cheney might think they could get away with it. First, the economy is tanking, raising the specter of civil disorder. Elites, threatened by the prospect of disorder, reflexively search for an authoritarian, iron-fisted strong-man. And guess what? Obama ain't it. Bush could count on the support of much of America's corporate and military elite if he declared himself dictator during a national emergency.
Even a self-inflicted national emergency? Well, who's going to know the difference? 9/11 had all the telltale signs of being a false-flag inside job, which serious students of the issue now know it was -- yet America's military, corporate and media institutions continue to pretend to believe in the official story.
An untraceable nuclear or biological attack would make evidence-based debate even more superfluous than it already is. Since there would be no evidence to debate, people would have to go with their gut feeling: Was this done by an outside enemy, or by our own leaders? If enough people accepted the "outside enemy" scenario -- which is natural primate behavior when threatened -- we could witness a resumption of the orgy of flag-sucking that followed 9/11, and Our Fearless Leader would once again be the man of the hour. Since the corporate media would be tirelessly parroting the official story, it stands to reason that the roughly two-thirds of Americans who don't seriously dispute the official 9/11 legend would go along with Bush's next mythical enemy attack.
Could this happen despite Bush's abysmal popularity ratings? Yes, because, as Naomi Klein points out in The Shock Doctrine, a massive shock can wipe the slate clean. The shock of a nuclear or biological attack on an American city would make Americans forget how much they hated Bush the day before. They would feel themselves in a whole new world, and everything they valued yesterday -- Constitutional government, peace, Obama, what-have-you -- would instantly seem like shards of an ancient, long-vanished past viewed dimly through the mist. As 9/11 cover-up commissar Philip Zelikow wrote in a 1998 Foreign Affairs article: "Like Pearl Harbor, such an event would divide our past and future into a 'before' and 'after.'"
We are already living in Zelikow's "after" with respect to the 9/11 false-flag attack. The "after" of another, larger, untraceable attack would be even less pleasant.
That is why we need to make every American understand that Bush is likely to play his get-out-of-jail-free card sometime during the next four months. If enough people expect it, and are ready to blame Bush for it, he may decide that exile in Paraguay is a safer bet.

Figure the Nine-Eleven Op, Sequel, is coming. What date?
That's the question some investigators are working to pre-announce, in advance, spill the beans, let the cat out of the bag, take away the element of surprise, trying to stop the second Bushesbutchers mass murders. Not IF, but When? That's what is in discussion in an OpEdNews diary, and its links. Midsummer Alert! -- July 28 - August 4 -- This is a heads up from concerned patriots with military experience in operations and intelligence and a heart felt concern for America Or any other idea you might think of for a way individual citizen efforts can put a stick in the spokes of the wheeling and dealing in mass murder Bushes. Forget Congress -- they are part of the murdering gang. Forget Judiciary -- they are besotted in graft and corruption. And forget the mass media -- actually, work to bankrupt the mass media: BOYCOTT Cable TV. Pay TV is the cashflow funding source for the fascist incursion. There is half a hope for help from some Governors, against Bushbutcher mass murders ... some Governors. And there is a lot of hope for help from our troops, overseas, when they get home knowing that they and the military's honor and especially Marines were betrayed by traitors Bush LIARS. by meremark (1 articles, 3 quicklinks, 30 diaries, 572 comments [22 recommended, 0 rejected]) on Wednesday, Jul 23, 2008 at 12:00:57 AM  (0+)

Urban Drills
Recently the military held drills on urban unrest in Indianapolis. Of course it went unnoticed by the corporate media propagandists. Also, a friend who works for the railroad has spotted railcars resembling those used by the Germans in the 40s are lined up in a secluded place on the outskirts of Cincinnati, Ohio. Several months ago semi-trucks were delivering MREs in large quantities to an underground facility outside of Indianapolis. The Bush/Cheney cabal cannot afford to have an "outsider" gain the White House for fear that individual may want independent investigations on several of the happenings of the past 8 years. The more McCain speaks, the further away from the White House he gets. Therefore more drastic measures are needed. Brace yourself. by Dennis Kaiser (20 articles, 0 quicklinks, 35 diaries, 730 comments [137 recommended, 0 rejected]) on Wednesday, Jul 23, 2008 at 7:15:22 AM (0+)

Of course a false flag is coming
It's not just Bush's only way out but Cheney's also and everyone involved in the coverup of 9/11. The thing is another false flag will not be believed by anyone unless it is perfectly executed, which 9/11 wasn't. These idiots can't do anything completely right, even when it comes to benefiting solely the rich. A false flag is on the way anyway because what else do they have to try? It's probably going to be in Los Angeles since New York has already been hit. I've heard they are planning a suitcase nuke attack like on 24. Who knows? We do know that it IS coming and coming soon. People need to start preparing for the worst. I am. You need rations, water, survival kit, gas masks, potassium iodide (for nuclear strike), cash on hand and anything else you can afford. Definitely you want to have access to a nuclear fallout shelter. by Nfamous (0 articles, 0 quicklinks, 0 diaries, 104 comments [48 recommended, 0 rejected]) on Wednesday, Jul 23, 2008 at 1:12:05 PM (0+)

Bin Laden's own words
Remember the "American Taliban" John Warner? The young American jihadist got closer to bin Laden than any American agent, and he got caught on the battlefield in Afghanistan. He talked freely about his time at the terrorist training camp, about being solicited by bin Laden for terrorist attacks on US soil (John politely declined), and about the widely know game plan for al Qaeda's campaign against America. Bin Laden had a master plan to deter America from occupying Muslim lands, and supporting Israel: three major terroist attacks on the US mainland. The first was to be conventional. The second two were going to be biological. The time frame for these attacks were to be longer than Western culture could cope with, eventually wearing down US resolve. Obviously, I don't know anything you don't know, but I can repeat what the CIA analyst Anonomous said in the book "Imperial Hubris" (and later when his identity was know, and he was interviewed on Meet the Press): He doubts that bin Laden is in any hurry to order another catastrophic terrorist attack on the US, since everything is going his way. By the way, that analyst was in charge of the CIA division dedicated to finding bin Lade (which was later disbanded by the Bush administration). Personally (for what it is worth), I think it would be a wonderful time for al Qaeda to carry out a massive multipronged attack using bioweapons and conventional methods (like derailing chemical trains, or truck bombs, or even a mortor attack on domestic US oil infrastructure). The US would predictably use the al Qaeda attack as an excuse to attack Iran (this is even with a President Obama, McCain, or Bush, but particularly Bush since he has nothing to lose). Since Iran is a Shia nation, it is a blood enemy of Sunni al Qaeda, and would be an even bigger opponent of the US than Iraq. Yeah, I hope that inevitable al Qaeda catastrophic terrorist attack on the US using already secured and stationed bio-weapons won't take place for a few more years-using the time span between the first attack on the World Trade Center, to the second when both towers fell, we have a bit more time, but who can fathom the mind of bin Laden? All I really know is that it was a big big mistake for the US Congress to put the FBI in charge of domestic counter-terrorism. Any organization that takes that long just to get email is hopeless. To my knowledge they still don't have a modern electronic database. In my opinion, the FBI is a highly ossified, top-down fasist organization filled with a bunch of extremely ambitious boy scouts. Hope I'm wrong. by Brad Arnold (3 articles, 0 quicklinks, 1 diaries, 21 comments) on Monday, Jul 28, 2008 at 6:16:16 AM (0+)
