Rumsfeld On 2006 Election: “The Correction For That…Is An Attack”

An ongoing exploration of the documents related to the Pentagon’s “message force multipliers” program has unearthed a clip of former Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld suggesting that America, having voted the Democrats back into Congressional power, could benefit from suffering another terrorist attack, and doing so in the presence of the very same military analysts who went on to provide commentary and analysis of the Iraq War.

US Defense Secretary Robert Gates has revealed that Washington plans to engage in a number of ‘exclusive’ activities against Iran.

“We’re being very aggressive in going after the networks in Iraq, and the individuals who are interfering or supplying weapons from Iran,” said Gates Tuesday.

“We have a number of other activities under way. We take it very serioUSly. But at this point our activities are focUSed pretty exclUSively inside Iraq,” he added.

He accused the Islamic Republic of arming Iraqi insurgents and claimed it had ‘awakened them (the Iraqis) to the reality of the magnitude of Iranian meddling in Iraq.’

Iran announces that it may press charges against the United States and Britain over their involvement in a deadly blast in Shiraz.

Following investigations into an explosion last month at a religious center in the southern city of Shiraz, Iran announced Thursday that it had arrested six people in connection with the incident.

Iran’s judiciary spokesman, Alireza Jamshidi, confirmed on Monday that the American and British governments had been involved in the fatal incident.

A plan to show some alleged Iranian-supplied explosives to journalists last week in Karbala and then destroy them was canceled after the United States realized none of them was from Iran. A U.S. military spokesman attributed the confusion to a misunderstanding that emerged after an Iraqi Army general in Karbala erroneously reported the items were of Iranian origin.

When U.S. explosives experts went to investigate, they discovered they were not Iranian after all

“There’s no question that radical Islamists yearn for McCain to lose”.

- another one who has obviously never read anything by Michael Scheurer and discovered that Bin Laden, if asked for his preference for next president, would pick John McCain in a heart beat, although he probably wouldn’t be disappointed with Hillary or Obama either.
