Galloway Wary Of Staged Terror Attack As Pretext For Iran Invasion

At the end of the show Alex Jones asked Galloway if he thought an invasion of Iran was on the horizon. Galloway was confident that massively opposed public opinion would stop an attack from taking place, unless a staged terror attack carried out by the military industrial complex and blamed on Iran was carried out. -snip-

JONES: "What do we do if the military-industrial complex carries out a terror attack to blame it on them?"

GALLOWAY: "Well that's another very real danger. There's no way we can legislate for that but we we must be on guard. We need a vigilant citizenry."

JONES: "Unbelievable."

GALLOWAY: "We need a vigilant citizenry that are wise to all the tricks that these monkeys are up to." -snip-

Haaaa ..... Galloway Knows We Need to Keep an Eye on the 'Monkeys' !! That was great. :applause:

45. Attack on June 11, hence 6/11?
Tin foil hat required but,
9/11 New York
3/11 Madrid Train Bombing
Given that Scott Ritter was convinced that we would
be invading another country in June, it seems plausible.
6/11 another attack,
Stranger things have happened, especially recently.

49. I always wondered if someone
ever did an in-depth study on these dates. The 911 date is obvious why the date was picked. But what if that was coincidence too? I remember some 'election' result numbers were about to come out on the 2000 election questioning the validity or something, then boom 911. Now the Downing Street Memos are supposed to be brought up by Kerry, and here we are in June. Leave no rock unturned. I will be aware on 6/11 Peace. :)

2. I love this Galloway fellow! I hope & pray he stays out of small planes.
Let hope this rooster keeps crowing from across the pond!

3. I heard that and have been wondering myself
Galloway also said they're weak (Bush/Blair) and need to keep them that way. As long as they are weak they can't fully do their plans. I still wonder if they're going to do something. It is June after all. :\ I'm weary that's for sure and keeping my eye out a lot more. Fox has already started pumping up for Iran with "nuclear weapons" (ha!).

6. Yea I awoke this morn with Iran on my mind too FreedomAngel82,
Seymore Hearsh, Scott Ritter, and June Gloom. :( ..... but hey somehow I feel at the moment things may be put off till July sometime? Hate being in the dark on these things. Bolton still not to the U.N. I think kinda messed up their plans. But I still don't trust these 'monkeys' one bit. :) Keep the faith. Peace. :)

7. I'm with ya',...I do worry.
On the other hand, the walls are moving in on these pricks and I'm pretty sure they are feeling the pressure.

Still, I know what they are capable of doing. They are rotten and corrupt and I simply know better than to doubt they will go forward with a highly crafted plot.

I hate living through these times.

26. What worries me is that old saying...
"Desperate times calls for desperate actions." Or something link that.

I've been worried too, now that it's "June." Looking up wards every time I hear those loud jets going by... I live in the thick of things. Colleges have become police states. People of all walks of life no longer looking at one another in stores... angry faces, few despondent.

Disgusting. Truly, disgusting. Who will save us from this "madness!?!"

And it's just not "us" out here. It's everyone I know and bang in to, strangers too when striking up conversations. Even my freeper friends are worried sick and mad now... still they voted for *

41. oh God yes,
having trouble sleeping, and having problems getting a lot of work done because I work in an office building in a major city that looks like it should have a target on the side of it. I'm pretty much to the point that I never want to get into an elevator again.

5. If enough warnings get out
about them "staging terror attacks" ..maybe we can thwart that too!

I saw the most amazing British tv drama series on netflix discs from the early '90's on what goes on in Parliment and behind the scenes campaigning and winning "10 Downing ST".

It could have been pulled from behind the scenes today at what goes on at the chimphouse and congress today!

8. Sounds like Gallaway shares our belief that 9/11 was LIHOP/MIHOP
Makes me wonder how many others outside of our boarders know.


The more public opinion goes against the BFEE, the more I worry. :scared:

29. Me too, Just Me! Want my damn country back!!!!!!
Living on that edge, too. Reminisce pre 2000. Now, we had it so much greener, safer, secure, free, stress-free at that.

You know, I tell my Creeper friends before I slam-dunk the phone down on them that before * we were great, fine... that yes, our politician's did their dirty little deeds, something we've all sort of know about since old enough to vote/understand.

The difference here: None of them actually entered our lives, hearts and homes and caused so much horrid, drastic demeaning, demoralizing alterations to our lives. None of what they did prior caused us so much pain and total destruction to our lives and country.

Can anyone out here remember 1 President and/or Administration and/or Republican party that created this many changes, and fear and stealing of our money and lives ever in history...?

Sadly, remarkable - never in my lifetime did I ever think this. Never.

12. Hey Mopaul .......
Yea cornered rats do desperate things .... but the more we can corner the administration and their tactics, well I'd rather corner the little bastard mouse then let him continue to run loose throughout the house!! :bounce:
Anyway, I posted this in another thread you started a bit ago, thought it might be worth repeating here cause your post brought it to mind again .... Goggle Zarqawi, Iran, under 'News'
I just picked one out here ..... http://www.outlookindia.com/pti_news.asp?id=301154

That story is out there, attempting to make the connection between Zasrqawi and Iran, maybe it's too early to see if it sticks. But when the Bush administration went into Afghanistan it was to get 'Osoma' .... this 'Zarqawi' could be the new 'Osoma reason to go into Iran'. I've seen this game before. :wtf: Yes I wish Osoma and Zarqawi should both be brought to justice .... but ....... this shit stinks to high heaven. Peace. :)

15. This is frightening.
A US invasion of Iran would be monstrously stupid.

Putting aside (if possible) the moral implications (such a move would result in an astounding loss of human life), the military logic for an Iran invasion is fatally flawed. Iraq has 26 million people. Iran has 68 million. Iraq is fertile ground for a Sunni-Shiite civil war. Iran has no similar internal conflict. It is almost all Shiite.

Sure, Iranians dislike their mullahs. But they are intensely patriotic. I can't think of a more efficient way to unite them than forcing them to face a common enemy.

The US has been unable to subdue Iraq. How in Gods name do our "fearless leaders" expect to win in Iran?

If there's a silver lining around this very dark cloud, it's the hope that any US military action against Iran would result in the trial and imprisonment of all those responsible for the current administrations fanatical neocon agenda.

16. So it isn't going to happen.
We have been rattling their cage to try to get them to give a concession to the Europeans. I think Iran was originally on their to-do list, but the risk of attacking Iran far outweighs the risk of letting them get the bomb, and the bush people must know this.

19. Another terrorist attack would be even stupider
Edited on Thu Jun-02-05 12:19 AM by Melodybe
it just fucking PROVES that Bush is not doing a fucking thing about terrorism. 9/11 caught us by surprise, never again!

Plus invading Iran would only piss off China and Russia and do we really want to start fighting with them too?

Bring it on you scum sucking rats the country is on to you! We're on to the voting machines, we're on to your media! Bring it on!

Bush is looking more like Nixon every fucking day!

Thank God!

35. You are right!
I should have thought of the fact that Russia and China would be pissed big time if the US ever attacked Iran. Yet another logical reason not to do it. But then again, Bush & Co. are less than logical.

Edited on Thu Jun-02-05 11:44 AM by slaveplanet
what is a member of Parliment doing , admitting they may stage a terror attack ...then calling them "monkeys".

Thank God for Alex Jones , I'm not sure many hosts would pose such a question.


Nice to see the word getting out, I had this posted 2 days ago , but it got passed over...
http://tinyurl.com/du6hm

and on the same note ....Did anyone else hear Tom Flocco on Rense last night?

He was giving major Kudos to Andy Stephenson and DU. Thanked him for his work on the BBV issue. Though the support he recieved was amazing. Then He brought up Cynthia McKinney , and both were gushing about her. Especially Rense.

21. Here's a little something for all you Galloway fans....
<http://www.cyberjive.com/stuff/doubleg.wav>

It may take awhile to load up (23 MB), since I tried to get really good quality,and it was set up to play on the various media players as opposed to an mp3, lemme know if there are any problems downloading or playing it, ok? I'll try to fix it ASAP! Recently switched over to Windows from Mac, and still trying to get the hang of things! Hopefully you guys will like it, as well as have a chuckle or two!
