The idea that that he has confessed to so many acts of terrorism to take the heat off of the real perpetrators had crossed my mind. But really, I see the media's airing of his obviously dishonest confessions as more of a propaganda campaign on Bush's part, designed to keep the "boo factor" alive and well in our minds. The recent FBI "warnings" about foreigners with "terrorist assocciations" signing up to drive school buses, (but there is nothing for parents to be concerned about), is a damned joke. The machinations and propaganda being advanced by this administration becomes more surreal by the minute. In KSM's case, we not only need to wade through his lies, we need to wade through the Bush Administration's lies ABOUT his lies. Who knows what the fuckin' truth is anymore? We sure as hell haven't been given any reason to believe the truth is going to issue forth from the media, or the White House. Hell, for all we know, KSM's confessions may be a total fabrication. So trying to ponder their meanings, and the motivations for these alleged confessions is an exercise in futility. If I was to hazard a guess, my opinion would be that these so-called "confessions" are being aired to lend credibility to the "official line of shit" about what actually occurred on 9/11, and the idea that a few yahoos with box-cutters successfully buffaloed the FBI, the CIA, the NSA, the INS, the Mossad, and NORAD.
One thing is for sure, if you have my head under water, and I am convinced you intend to drown me, I'll tell you I sodomized the Pope if I believe the confession will end the torture.
Oh Jesus H. Christ, give me a break.
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed's real game plan is to reduce the voltage being run through his testicles on tuesdays and thursdays, and to get waterboarding cut back from five to three nights a week.
Who gives a monkey's ass what KSM has to say. He's resident number one of torture central, property of a country which has legitimized torture.
It's pretty well known that torture victims will confess to anything and everything to please their torturers.
Didn't torture under Stalin result in extravagant confessions from hapless schmucks, so eager to end the pain that they'd take credit for anything and everything?
If I'm not mistaken, so far Khalid Sheikh Mohammed's taken credit for numerous plots, some very surprising and nettlesome FOIA requests, the sinking of the Maine, and knocking over the local 7-11.
The only thing we can't be sure about one way or the other is the 'numerous plots' part.
If you wince reading this, just consider--it's the same type of mockery and derision found in the European & Asian press. Bush has made us a laughingstock.
Nothing he says has any independent credibility. Nothing America says about him has any credibility at all.
End of story.
