Fear Factor
among the Bushie's repertoire of scary stories to tell the population, in order to sell the "war on terror", was the myth of "sleeper cells" - groups of terrorists burrowed deep into American society, ready to rise up at a momen'ts notice and commit attrocities against unsuspecting population centers here in the US. as it turns out, like so much else we have been told in the last four years, this is bullshit:

The only wheel of cheese around here is rolling around that empty head of yours knifey, and the only bullshit is your cut and paste job that resembles an episode of Fantasy Island. You still haven't figured out that little piles of unbelievable bullshit taken completely out of context, then glued together with the standard heaping helping of liberal ignorance, only becomes a giant pile of unbelievable liberal bullshit. Bad enough you instantly buy into and believe some reporters CLAIMS about a "secret" FBI report that is hardly substantiated or concrete evidence of anything more than some reporters imagination, but you even have to cut and paste only little bits that come close to supporting this infantile tantrum you are appearently going to throw for the next 4 years. If you read the article with an open and unbiased mind, leave out the liberal whiny sore loser, "I hate Bushie's guts mentality, and most third grade elementary students would see words like "Maybe", "Unclear", "We believe" , "Limited reporting", and "inconclusive". Read the article in its entireity and the ONLY thing that this "secret" FBI report "concludes" is that "To DATE" the FBI has yet to "identify" any sleeper cells. NO WHERE does it say that sleeper cells are MYTH'S, that they absolutely don't exist here, nor does it state that because our inept FBI hasn't identified any sleeper cells, once again "TO DATE", that this means we have absolutely NOTHING to worry about, they are NOT here and we should just stop looking. We all know that if sleeper cells were here our FB fukin I would know the minute they stepped foot on American soil just like they knew all about the 9/11 hijackers years in advance, but allowed them to kill 3000 innocent people because Bush put a Vulcan Mind Meld on them and brainwashed them into supporting his WAR FOR FREE OIL. Furthermore Meuller says just a few weeks ago that he's worried about what we are NOT seeing. Now if the FBI not identifying any sleeper cells "TO DATE" means that they are myth's, don't exist, and are bullshit as you claim knifey, unlike the *cough* "secret" FBI document thats claims NOTHING of the sort, then what is Meuller "worried" about? Couldn't be because he thinks the FBI couldn't pour piss out of a boot with the instructions printed on the bottom, and we pretty much aren't going to know about any sleeper cells until they strike again as they did in 9/11? Do the Twist knifey...........or should we call ya Chubby Checker. |

yer a good german jc, i'll give you that
but you allowed yourself to get suckered into the hype and since you don't have the conceptual skills to think your way out, i'll throw you a bone: 9/11 didn't happen because there was no Patriot Act or war on terror. it didn't happen coz there may be "sleeper cells" or coz we didn't know about Al Queda or comprehend the threat. it didn't happen coz the Feds didn't have the power to detain people indefinitely, charge people with laws too secret to make public, or search their book buying habits. in short, 9/11 didn't happen because of some great revelation we have only now come to realize..... 9/11 only happened because basic existing functions of government failed; specifically immigration and airport security (as overseen by the FAA). remember that JC, and perhaps you'll be able to frame a coherent line of thought on this subject in the future. |

theknife,
I tend to think one reason 911 happened is because no one *really* believed it could happen. Kind of like now, no one really believes it could actually happen again. |

Could it be because no one ever really suspected we were in any real danger? I believe America was asleep at the wheel then, and asleep at the wheel now. |

Now you claim supreme knowledge of the events leading up to 9/11. What an EGO. Why haven't you called the White House and told George that you have all the answers to 9/11. Exactly how, what and why it happened, you've figured out every mistake right down the last insubordinate FAA employee that REALLY caused 9/11. Now you make up your own definition of "sleeper cells" in a pathetic attempt to climb out of this giant pit of complete non-sense you continue to stew in. The 9/11 terrorists weren't "sleeper cells"? They didn't live here inactive until called to strike? They just flew over from Afghanistan that morning and said what the hell lets hijack 3 planes and fly them into American Buildings? That bone you threw was your last bit of credibility. The Terrorists were indeed sleeper cells. They were SENT here with a pre conceived plan to lie in wait and remain INACTIVE until called upon to carry out that planned attack. They took up residence, hung out at local bars and acted like any other LEGAL immigrant, the whole time maintaining contact with those that sent them, while they spent a still UNKNOWN amount of time planning, preparing, educating, and collecting the tools they needed to assure their success. You'd think you would tire of continually embarrassing yourself like this. Please do lecture me on framing coherent thoughts when you actually frame one yourself. Talk about a "Sleeper Cell". Quote:

If you mean floyd I could not agree more. Not sure what your point is on the fear thing tho, It is used everyday by almost all corporations and govenerment levels. Hell ABC uses fear factors to get you to watch their news. "Kids Go Missing" at a 11:00. -A television commercial portrays a terrible automobile accident (the fear appeal), and reminds viewers to wear their seat-belts (the fear-reducing behavior). -A pamphlet from an insurance company includes pictures of houses destroyed by floods (the fear appeal), and follows up with details about home-owners' insurance (the fear-reducing behavior). -A letter from a pro-gun organization begins by describing a lawless America in which only criminals own guns (the fear appeal), and concludes by asking readers to oppose a ban on automatic weapons (the fear-reducing behavior).

A partial truth, when used to manipulate the weak minded, is the same as a lie.
If all that was required was for INS to lose track of immigrants and boxcutters be allowed on airlines then 9/11 type attacks would have happened every day for years. Using the term "let" repeatedly is deceptive by inferring that it was contrary to normal practices. Calling boxcutters weapons is another subtle lie to manipulate you simpletons, their primary function is as a tool and they were generally considered tools. "It's no more complicated than that." is probably just an unintentional lie by someone who can't understand something complicated. Last edited by albed : 20-03-05 at 07:58 AM. |
