scrambler Posted October 7, 2003 Author Share Posted October 7, 2003 AmberBuxom said: cuba Cuba holds a special place in our administration's heart: The Bush administration says the detainees are not entitled to fundamental American legal rights, like due process, because Camp Delta is on Cuban soil. Federal courts have upheld that position, but the case has been appealed to the Supreme Court. Is this true? Don't know but I've wondered why the detainees were not brought stateside. Fear of potential retaliatory terrorist attacks or the above mentioned reason? Nevertheless, Cuba is probably useful to us in its current form. --snip-- termination of the lease requires the consent of both the U.S. and Cuba governments, or the abandonment of the base property by the U.S. --snip-- Source: Brief History of U.S. Naval Base at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al_Pine Posted October 7, 2003 Share Posted October 7, 2003 We're not attacking anybody anytime soon, but only because our forces are stretched too thin. Though perhaps an "imminent threat" from Iran or Korea could give us justification for bailing on the "reconstruction" and occupation of Iraq. Another possibility is if ol' Bush gets the draft going again (shortly after Nov 2004), then we'll be good to go. In that case the obvious targets are Syria and Iran, since it will be so convenient with all our forces already over there. I mean, isn't that really the reason we invaded Iraq? We had a bunch of forces over there watching them, we didn't feel like we could call off the dogs, so we just decided to invade 'em and get it over with. I think even JayB will agree with that.

allthumbs Posted October 8, 2003 Share Posted October 8, 2003 Read this first, then my thoughts. Yeah - OK - this article was done in 2002 and here it is 2003. You're saying, nah, that ain't gonna happen. It's too old - it would have happened by now. Well, let me ask you - how long were the 19 folks that caused 911 here in the States? Quite a while. It takes time to get these missiles smuggled in. They aren't exactly something you can hide in your shirt. Now imagine what chaos would occur if there were a coordinated attack at major commercial airfields to shoot down jumbo jets. Either on landing or take off - and the resulting damage to surrounding areas where the wreckage fell. Stingers and SA-7s, SA-14s, and SA-16s are all relatively easy to fire and hit the target. The Stinger, SA-14, and SA-16 can do head on engagements. Gives the shooter more options. Then consider what would happen if at the same time some of our major ports had cargo containers filled with semtec (an extremely high explosive plastique) that exploded along with a persistent nerve agent. Hmmm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hakioawa Posted October 8, 2003 Share Posted October 8, 2003 What if the Canadians and Mexicans, in a corrdinated effort, began drilling deep oil wells (with saudi equipment no doubt) near the borders, on to the San Andreas fault and the juan defuca ridge? Then they began pumping water (H2O is capable of head on flooding!!!!!) into the holes? It would cause huge earthquakes and massive descruction! What if they suceeded in putting thier climbing sleeper cells (Isn't sadams middle name Dru?) on the summits of Rainier, Hood and Shasta while the earthquakes were happening to divert the mud slides toward major population centers! UNTOLD DESTRUCTION!!! Clearly we cannot let this happen!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmberBuxom Posted October 8, 2003 Share Posted October 8, 2003 What if the Canadians and Mexicans, in a coordinated effort, began smuggling destructive narcotic substances into the US in order to corrode our youth and undermine their ambition and eventual constructive output and value to our society? oh shit! too late!
