When Terrorists Strike...
( Air Date: 8/6/2004 )

"The latest terror threats indicate an attack could occur close to the November election.

Recent information from the Department of Homeland Security warns that Al-Qaeda prisoners now being interrogated have said another attack on the US is planned for 60 days before election day."


60 days before the election comes out to be September 3rd or Sept. 2nd. The Republican Convention is August 30th to September 2nd. Are they planning to go out with a big bang?


Believing it to be on Septmeber 2nd, however, will it all happen during the Republican Convention during B*sh's speech?!

1. if an attack came before the election what would that do about

Bush's boast that he is the best man to handle terrorism? afterall that would be two major terrorist attacks, including 9/11 on Bush's watch.

3. It gives them the reason

to declare Martial Law.

It's win/win for Bush either way though.

Revenge of the Mahdi
September 2 – a day to remember?
by Justin Raimondo

"It is true that George W. Bush's reelection campaign is helped, to a certain extent, by the perception of imminent danger, and that it makes Americans more reluctant to change horses in mid-stream. But that doesn't mean the terrorist threat isn't imminent, and that it's all a cynical ploy engineered by Karl Rove, the Machiavelli of the new millennium."

"The image of George W. Bush addressing the Republican national convention on Sept. 2, just as a few more "iconic" American buildings go up in flames, is more fodder for the kneejerk scoffers, who see everything in terms of the election. But that date has significance other than in terms of American politics: September 2 is also the 106th anniversary of the Battle of Omdurman, which marked the triumph of the British in the Sudan over an army of Islamic fundamentalists known as Mahdists. It is an anniversary fraught with significance for Osama bin Laden and his followers worldwide: the history behind it illustrates both the nature of the threat we face and the inability of the U.S. to effectively confront it."

5. Then it would make it look like the "terraists" were after them.

and get rid of a large block of voters that hate them anyway.
