Was the L.A./NYC School Threat a Rethug Scare America Scheme to Jack Up the GOP Debate?

With a political party, the GOP, whose primary, overriding governance policy is based on ramrodding their “Scare America” campaign down America’s collective throat, one must ask if the terrorist threats to the L.A. and NYC schools on the morning of the GOP Presidential debate was another one of their typically odious and deceitful schemes to jack up the anti- Islamic hate/fear factor which was the overall message/theme of Tuesday night’s debate.

The Republican Party has created a fertile and receptive home for fraudulent, false, non-factual based manufactured, wholly and totally fictitious stories, accounts, events, and scenarios upon which they use to falsely accuse others and create fear, bigotry and hate campaigns against ‘non-believers”. Their biggest weapon, quite obviously, is the fear mongering monster they have created and exploited about terrorism.

Fresh on the heels of the Paris and San Bernardino terrorist attacks (but not on the Colorado Planned Parenthood terrorist attack), the Rethugs have a perfect storm of fear based mass hysteria going for them. Add to that, the racist, anti-Islamic exhortations of Trump and others, they have an unstoppable tsunami of hate and fear propelling their repugnant political campaigns.

So, what better to crank up the fear factor even more? How about a terrorist threat to kill school children. And target the threats to the two largest media markets in America.

Bingo, Fear Super Storm number 1,800. That should get a real good atmosphere of fear mongering going for the evening’s debate.

Make people really want to kill.

The Rethugs got no game unless they can scare the bejezuss out of America.

Enter the threats.

Thanks to a very well written article in the L.A. Times on the threats, we are able to see how transparently evident the fraudulent nature of the threats were and their blatantly obvious fear producing political intent was.

So, let us take a look at them:

Los Angeles Times
16 Dec 2015
By Richard Winton, Kate Mather and Joel Rubin

“LAPD Chief Charlie Beck was told that investigators had traced the message to an Internet server in Germany, but was cautioned that it might have been rerouted from somewhere else.”

“The email, he said, listed the name of every L.A. Unified school and suggested that high schools were the primary target. The sender wrote that the attack would occur Tuesday and warned that explosives had already been planted. After they detonated, people “with ISIS connections” would attack with AK-47 rifles and other guns, said Beck, who was paraphrasing the email. “

“The threat sent to New York claimed that schools would be attacked with a combination of pressure cooker bombs, nerve gas agents and machine guns, according to a law enforcement source who read the email but was not authorized to release details. The sender said “138 comrades” would help carry out the attacks and that students at every school would be massacred.

Stephen Davis, deputy commissioner of the New York Police Department, said investigators were struck by small but significant errors in the email’s wording.

The message, for example, claimed that the attacks would be carried out in the name of Allah, but the sender used a lowercase “a.” The email also included a large amount of information about the threatened attacks, which runs counter to common practices of terrorists, Davis said.”

“Not long after they began digging into the email, New York officials learned of the threat received in Los Angeles. That made it easier for them to conclude the emails were fakes, because the wording was nearly identical and the sender was claiming to be in both cities at the same time “


Upon reading the excerpts from the emails, it becomes apparent quite quickly, that the messages were constructed to create the highest fear factor level possible. The writer included all the essential fear producing trigger words, which have been relentlessly and Pavlovianly pounded into the heads and feeble minds of the Fecal News borg. Children were the targets,ISIS was the perp, AK-47’s employed, pressure cooker bombs, nerve gas, machine guns,138 comrades (not a word used by terrorists, but by old geezer Commie-phobes), Allah was involved.

Note that the emails were sent from a German source, but quite probably originated elsewhere. This was not some attempt by school kids to get out of school, nor was it a goofball prank. These emails had a definite and specific purpose, to jack up the Anti- Islamic fear and hatred and to crank up the same in the GOP debate that night.

And it worked. Wimpy Wolf Blitzer included the threats in his introduction, and some of the candidates, including “Christie the Corpulent” jumped right on it. Can always count on a Prosecutor’s willingness to use fake, fraudulent evidence.

To quote the Who: “We won’t get fooled Again”

that's who it turns out to be... but it's also not likely to see the light of day in our protective news outlets if it was the purpose of the emails.
