Faux Crisis - Meet Lack Of Waste: Gibbs Issues Official Statement On Suspicious Packages
Fresh from the White House:
Statement of White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs
Last night, intelligence and law enforcement agencies discovered potential suspicious packages on two planes in transit to the United States. Based on close cooperation among U.S. government agencies and with our foreign allies and partners, authorities were able to identify and examine two suspicious packages, one in East Midlands, United Kingdom, and one in Dubai. Both of these packages originated from Yemen. As a result of security precautions triggered by this threat, the additional measures were taken regarding the flights at Newark Liberty and Philadelphia International Airports.
The President was notified of a potential terrorist threat on Thursday night at 10:35, by John Brennan, Assistant to the President for Homeland Security and Counter-terrorism. The President directed U.S. intelligence and law enforcement agencies, and the Department of Homeland Security, to take steps to ensure the safety and security of the American people, and to determine whether these threats are a part of any additional terrorist plotting. The President has received regular updates from his national security team since he was alerted to the threat.
PETA is happy to announced that no previous administrations were disparaged (yet) in the disarming of this "potential terrorism threat."

Is is Al Queda trying to influence an election, or is somebody else using Al Queda to influence an election?
Yes
Al Quaeda will influence anyone we pay them to influence.
The video is in final production photoshop now.
Got your duct tape and saran wrap?
We're up to Magenta
No worries until at least Fuchsia. I start sweating at Hot Pink.
Hate to be the one to break the news to ya.....WE are El Queda.
Al (as in the) C I A...... duh.
Timothy Osman, by any other name........and what a name!
Note to those who are not aware....
Tim Osman was Bin Ladin's OFFICIAL CIA codename. It comes from where he was initially trained, and the fact that his family has old monie/old blood ties to the oilgarchs, and the oilgarchs (including the Bin Ladin's, who along with George Herbert Walker Bush (talk about names! (the Herberts and Walkers were "poets" or better, advisers to the English Royal with Cheese Crown)) and Oliver Sarkozy (yes that Sarkozy) own the Carlyle Group) have ties to the Ottoman Empire. Also known as "The Osman" or stately put, the 'Ottoman', Bin Ladin has ties going back to the CIA from when NSA Brzezinski armed the Mujahideen, which was the precursor movement to the said al CIA, stupids!
And while I am at it, the word mujahideen means "those doing holy war" but "holy war" as described by the Quran as "jihad" refers to 'a personal sacrifice to god' and the word is never used in the book to suggest otherwise.
There are extremists in every religion..........even consumerism. Ben Bernanke for example. Now he is a terrorist.
WIN!!! (cossack55 )
Not only that, the USA has long funded Bin Laden (who died years ago) before he was ousted via 9/11. While virtually no one was allowed to leave the USA after 9/11, President Bush allowed the Bin Laden family the permission to gather and fly out of the USA.
Notice how the CIA avoids any more video of ol' Bin because years ago it was discovered the CIA was using an actor, thus now only audio TAPES are released (what, a guy with family million$ does not have a cell phone with camera... that is if he was alive, which he is not).
Like Bush needed 9/11, Obama needs another 'event' to survive. These events are always followed by new laws removing freedoms from US citizens. This is a very important fact, as one should never let a good crisis go to waste.
And now some humor, those printer cartridges were headed to terrorists!!! Specifically, they were headed to the Federal Reserve to print up $2,000,000,000,000 more dollars. That, my friends, is the worst type of widespread terror now infecting the USA.
These new threats likely have about as much substance as the terror alert that the U.S issued on travel to Europe. We of course now know that the European terror alert was 100 % bogus and was an attemp to deflect headlines. This latest alert is quite obviously grasping at straws around election time. What a farce the Obama government has become.
That 2nd one. CIA baby.
The Yemen branch of Al-CIA-Qaeda was just feeling plane left out... @:>(
But what confuses me is that the Messiah had told us that there was/is/should be/maybe/kinda/whatever the fuck no war on terrorism, that there wasn't even any terrorism, just upset individuals or some such shit. So why is he telling some bureaucracy to be extra specially vigilant in keeping us safe when it was the same bureaucracy that already told him about the (maybe) threat and has patiently awaited further instructions to keep us safe for almost a full day?
I feel better all ready.
I think a human being is capable of only so much fear, beyond which little more registers.
Would that threshold, you think, be higher than that for bullshit?
I enjoyed that. Thanks, needed a laugh/sanity check.
Fear is the best motivator, they say.
Too much fear yields indifference and apathy.
Agreed. Do they really think anyone gives a shit anymore? Don't they know most people want some bombs to go off? Not me of course. And certainly not on a plane.
Yea really, who gives a shit?
Dumbed down avg american has been trained to only care about Lady GaGa and American Idol, dont pay attention to the destroyed economy and total bankruptcy.
But now be afraid, very afraid, of an inkjet bomb on a plane overseas? Weak false flag there CIA! Got to do way better than that.
"inkjet bomb"?
Have they arrested Bernanke yet?
:-)
Bernanke will take care of himself when time comes using his Glock40. Too much shame and guilt to bear.
Lady GaGa will be seen next wearing a fully functioning inkjet bra sporting two strategically placed inkjet cartridges.
Ohh lala!
Lady GaGa will be da bomb!
Lady Gaga: Redefining the term 'meat curtains' since 2010
Does anybody else miss the color coding system with Homeland Insecurity? I think this threat may have put us right up there to magenta.(with appropriate credits being given to the Rock Horror picture show on Halloween's eve)
Does anyone else remember "Homeland Security" (Nazi memorabilia anyone?) ramping up the color code security threat level a few days before the 2004 Presidential election?
Let's see, incumbent party under pressure, economy muddling through or headed back down. I know, let's "discover" some "threatening" packages and push the fear button.
The best tricks are the old tricks. Now, where's my duct tape and plastic sheets?
You loaned them to me last election. I'll go to Lowes right now, replace'em, boost GDP and lure Benny past you.
Repost but relevant:
You See Obummer -- We Don't Buy the Bomb Scare
You may scare a bunch of menopausal yuppie women spending their husbands TBTF bonuses at Neiman Marcus by shouting "suspicious package" on a crowded escalator...
However, we the Amerikan sheeple are not buying it...
You may scare a few passengers flying into Detroit by yelling "Crotch bomb!" after you led the guy around customs and sat him on board...
However, we the Amerikan sheeple figure...
Who wouldn't set their balls on fire if they were flying into Detroit...
So we didn't by it...
Barry, Be Like Dick and Tony...
Let's face it Obummer, you are going to have to be more like Chenney/Bush (9/11) and Blair (7/7) and actually blow up your own citizens in order to scare us.
Dick, Tony and Schrub set the bar awfully high for you Barry...
I remember one day I thought the terror level was Fuchsia, I almost shit my pants in fear until I realized it was only Salmon.
I dream of the days when it might go to aqua or even light teal ... I don't think it has ever been below orang.
We will meet in the garden of bliss when it it lowered to sea-foam green.
With the virgins?
Wait, wrong thread. :>)
What's the difference, we'll all be docile eunuchs by then.
Haha. Maybe the right one!
CHARTREUSE MOTHERFUCKERS
Nice, didnt think anyone outside of France knew of it.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chartreuse_(liqueur)
(Kinda like Absinthe :))
It was quite popular in the 80s during the neon craze. I was thinking it would be perfect for the terror level with a nice tangerine border.
The color that should be used is Taupe. Nobody would have any fucking idea what terror level its supposedly trumped up to be.
Add Beige and Olive Drab, and you got a camoflage thing goin' there! :>D
Everyone is so fixated on the colors! I think they should change it to animals, as suggested by the Former Homeland Security Secretary, Tom Ridge:
"Mr. RIDGE: It could be colors, it could be numbers, it could be animals. I don't care what you use to designate the trigger, but it's what kind of information do you share when you raise the threat level I think is more important to the public."
http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=4647593
Here we go...
When things get dicy politically here in the US, let's trot out the tried and true chesnuts to scare the population and divert attention away from the critical issues we're facing... Yes, there are people out there that don't like us and want to hurt us - WALL STREET, THE BANKS AND THE CORPORATIONS...
There are threats... There may be something to thes latest discoveries... They sent up the Red Alert a few weeks ago regarding threats supposedly coming from Europe, but British Intellingence debunked that pretty quickly.
We probably have a pretty good anti-terrorism group that works very hard to keep us safe... But we need a financial Counter Terrorism Unit (CTU), and we need some FCTU agents along the lines of Jack Bauer to take these groups down.
It would not surprise me if the whole thing was a diversion to get BAC into the weekend with a share price above $5 per.
The sell signal coming off that toxic waste pond of a company today is very strong...as well it should be.
Does this mean the group hug and habitual bowing did not work?
TBD
Hey Godot, where ya been?
Difficult catchin' a taxi in rush hour...
Potential threat.
That's pretty weak.
A threat is already weak sauce. I'm giving up my sacred liberties and then having my body irradiated and my dick fondled by TSA fags at the airport over threats? Jesus ...
Now we have potential threats. Jesus Christ ...
Next week, possible potential threats and they'll need to anally probe every American citizen.
Wake up people. You're losing it.
How's that sore ass Cougar? I only ask because here you are talking about anal probes so........
Do you really do 60 miles RT a day? You must be a spring chicken or you have a great drug supply. :>)
60 miles/day? Having left arm pain just thinking about it.
Thunder thighs.
I didn't do 60 today; I drove. Just too tired. But it's an electric bike so I can only take credit for 30 of the 60. Even then it's a long day, 5 hours all told.
I probably have 15K miles on the machine, put about 4 sets of tires on it already. It is the world's most fantastic bicycle, without any doubt, everyone I meet on the road says so even old guys in diesel trucks. Wish I had a picture. No time for that tho. 5 hours a day. No time for anything really. If you wanna see something that looks close, google "SR-71". Not even kidding. It's that evil.
Mind if I ask what type?
What type of SR-71? Any of them. All evil.
As for the bike, I welded it together in my garage from scape bikes and electrical conduit. My own design. Yes, someone in America still builds something noteworthy. Tesla Motors isn't the only one.
Yeah, I was originally asking about the bike. Then you must have edited your post. Sorry for the confusion. Love that you made it yourself. Much respect sir.
Nice ride. But I don't see no electric motor.
It's hidden. it's in your mind.
Cougar,
You seem to be a little more.......feisty the past few days. Have you finally overdosed on Viagra or do you have a Tiger in your tank?
Wait a minute, I've got it. You've found your inner Kitty. :>)
Probably the latter. Nearing Oct31/Samhain here. Thin is the veil between the worlds, long is the night, cold is death. Quickly, kill the hearthfire and let summer pass taking with it the things that were devoured. All flames die at Samhain, save one; the unmaker burns into the night gathering up our threads and cutting them all.
Aren't you glad you asked?
Funny Cougar - up until I read this thread I thought you were a cougar as in the following:
http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=cougar
Great that you built your own bike and love the Samhain references - not a goth just strong Celtic roots (my grandmother's first language was Gaelic).
I've been following this back n forth... Cog Diss...Runn!
Cougar is gettin' his war on. Silver sure as shit is.
"There are known knowns; there are things we know that we know. There are known unknowns; that is to say, there are things that we now know we don’t know. But there are also unknown unknowns; there are things we do not know we don’t know." -Donald Assclown
Be afraid! Be very afraid!!!
Or, as Epictetus [early A.D.] put it:
"Appearances to the mind are of four kinds. Things either are what they appear to be; or they neither are, nor appear to be; or they are, and do not appear to be; or they are not, and yet appear to be. Rightly to aim in all these cases is the wise man’s task."
The Boondocks' take on this infamous quote:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=30x8VTCaOws
of course he forgot to mention that there are also unknown knowns : things that we don't know we know.
Hell, half the country is a "potential" threat to the other.
Zactly. We fought a civil war on that basis. So what's changed?
Soccer moms have taken over the country. That's what changed. Fly a jet into a building and all the sudden the foundations of democracy will be defended at any cost even if we must kill democracy itself to do it.
Thanks, but I think I like my chances better with the Arabs.

Yeah! He Who Lied To "US" directed and redirected and fucking solved IT! LMAO multiple times!
"Like a bad neighbor, POTUS is... there." <poof> <Gibbs>
Brilliant! I got a really good laugh out of it. Especially since Gibbs is as douchey as that commercial.
Good thing he did that, otherwise they might not have taken these steps.
Stop the bus! (…got to let my brother Jack, off.)
Since it’s a few days before a major election, LET’S ALL TALK about suspicious packages that I get in my mail box and remember how lucky we are to be under security!..never try to change and screw up that delicate surgical extraction of your freedom, along with your 11 second real investments.
when the patient wakes up during sugery it tends to get really ugly...

+baaaa baaaaaaaaaaa
Shearing time next week! Until then, drink Coca cola which by the High Fructose Corn syrup will drip mercury into your blood stream. Have a Big Mac of which you will barely digest any nutrintion (because there is none, or even a negative amount due to the steriods in the beef, the toxins from the ferts and pesticides in the veggies, the GMOs in the bun, and the oils which are now worse than trans fats), and watch shows that will tell you how to act; this of course will cause depression as you will not live up to the image of a "Star", until of course they start flashing their testicules at young women (Brett Farve is the latest way the Entertainment Industry has modeled you, by the way), which we would also like you to do. Seriously, now is your time to shine! Go for broke, and throw those illuninati symbols up so I know your listening. "Diamonds are forever!!"
Yes fear the unknown, but do not fear what is easy to know. Move along!
LH,
You didn't get the memo? They changed High Fructose Corn Syrups name to "corn sugar." So there is nothing to worry about.
Indeed Confused, thanks for the note. No more HFCS, no more Trans fats, move along everyone, move along!
Bureaucracies do not function in any real capacity in any circumstance. Examples: AFter JFK Jr.'s plane crashed, they (Coast Guard, etc) didn't search for wreckage until after Clinton told them to, the next morning (12 hours later). The US Air Force didn't even scramble fighter jets (which is routine) during the bombing of the WTC (plane as bomb or "secondary explosions" both considered). They had an hour to do so, and were only 15 minutes away. No matter who knows what, and who stands down, our bureaucracy is overweight and with Bernanke on the board looking to cannonball, don't forget to bring a towel.
"The President directed U.S. intelligence and law enforcement agencies, and the Department of Homeland Security, to take steps to ensure the safety and security of the American people, and to determine whether these threats are a part of any additional terrorist plotting."
Wow. Great leadership and coolness under fire. I wonder what the responses were from U.S. intelligence and law enforcement agencies and the Department of Homeland Security. Probably something like, "Well, duh. What did you think we were doing?"
I feel safe.
Don't worry.. it's just Dick Cheney sending his regards
any additional terrorist plotting? As opposed to normal psy-ops encouraged, general fear of dying as the infidel? Where the fuck are the handlers for this administration?
"We would like everybody to stay in a rigor state of fear until the election, at which time or after, we may decide to to have a false flag so that the coming financial collapse can be blamed on someone who is not Bernanke, Obama, Geithner, or any CEO of a Major bank. But maybe not, as the oilgarchs have not flipped their "should we permit a false flag or not" coin yet. We will keep you posted. In the meantime, move along, and check out Audrina Patrinidge's mom on youtube, what a lush, huh?"
Can I add to that?
"In the meantime, move along, and keep glued to the TV watching Cake Boss and American Idol." (anything to keep the attention off of TPTB!)
You left out Too Fat for Fifteen.
This most certainly signals to those with keen eyes, something on the orders of magnitude are about to catastrophically collapse the entire financial system... stay tuned.
Agreed!
Hate to see Gold and Silver spike up late on a friday. For the last several years, bad news is always announced on the weekends.
Pre-election terror threat. Inflate the GDP numbers and throw in a terrorist threat.

Funny how after we drone the fuck out of Yemen and increase our spook presence there dramatically... this happens. How convenient.
Guess it's time to raise spook/defense budgets...
""Both of these packages originated from Yemen.""
I guess there will be more military 'adventures' in Yemen in the near future.
Its a H1F2T3 pandemic!
ignore. thought I was chatting at my poker table.
What do this and the Wikileaks offerings have in common?
IMHO, they are both planned events ultimately from the same source.
I see you do neon lighting with your tin foil hats.
Brings some facts to the table when you want your dots connected.
1984...
the president is notified at 10:35 nite thursday about a potential terrorist threat....
did I not see him giving an election speech this morning....?
Sounds like his priorities are in order.
I was wondering when set up elements would begin to present themselves. And there you have it, al-CIAda is warming up in the wings.
D'ohBama and Hildo both heading out of the country for 2 weeks right after the election.
Oh sure, NOW they show some sense. Buckle up- - it's gonna be a bumpy fortnight.
They are trying to stop a 4 trillion QEtron bomb from entering the U.S. Too bad it's already sitting in Washington at 20th and Constitution!
Hey wait a sec, the CFTC is on 21st St NW
Not to worry, barry X's coalition comprised by blacks, jews, queers, muslims,
communists, illegals and baby murderers will defend the country.
White men, abandon your posts and let these nation wreckers fight for the country they have ruined.
Let them take the lead on this one. You are endlessly mocked and used only for cannon fodder. Time for affirmative action to head to the front lines.
I agree!
Well said. Meet you in Idaho my brotha.
Or in one of those non-existent FEMA camps, depending on how things break.
Uh, most of us are not endlessly mocked. Perhaps a little soul-searching is in order, sodomist.
No electric synagogue or movies in your cave, Bob?
I think he simply misunderstood how you meant it LS.
Perhaps you're not acquainted with herr sodomite. He passes through now and then, always KKK-idding us in the exact same way.
Interesting that he's returned today. Perhaps a Homeland Security goon sent to discredit the community, since we're not buying the terrorist threat bullshit.
Don't flatter yourself, scumbag.
Now that's a fatal tell right there. Nobody here would consider that flattering. Get back to some useful porn surfing, sodomite. I'm done with you.
You're quite the card player :)
Nice job Bob! Saw it too. Lock in that comment before he can change it.
You have become confused. Mission accomplished.

I urge our citizens to get out there and spend as Black Friday has now officially moved to Halloween weekend as falsified profitability (courtesy of financial accounting innovation) has increased more than eight percent over the last decade, necessitating the pull forward in holiday demand consumption.
Scaring up a little fun are we? Wait until April.
Reports of nothing at all blowing up and no dead shredded bodies is not an effective false flag fear and panic, not in todays Zombiemerica!
Show a few thousand dead in NYC, then you have a story. THis is weak BS.
Again, our weak pathetic govt wants to have it both ways. Fear and panic, with accompanying blind unquestioning ignorance!
Wheels falling off!
True, but who exactly is gonna believe this nonsense anymore?
I'm an equal opportunity abuser: I have no more disdain for the D'ohBamzy debacle than i did for the Cheney/Bush infiltration. But this group is perhaps the most clownish bunch of talent free apparatchik fools as has ever existed anywhere. I really feel like if they try to pull off their own False Flag, they'll wind up getting caught. Give Cheney his due for slithering through his Op. That is one tough old rooster and there isn't anyone like him in DC. And Thank You God for that.
I'd explain more but I want to get back to watching my USAGold.com live ticker like a zombie so I can take in that which has any real meaning today.
And how 'BOUT that gold correction, eh? $1,357 and climbing.
Yeah Boy.
Yea they have no talent, just ham fisted pounding of square pegs into round holes.
All of the hallmarks of false flag.
This is clearly false flag.
Any other discussion shows reality has not reached standard education level.
Get out da matrix.
Yes we're supposed to be unquestioning zombies in the matrix, and not even notice the constant outright fraud, manipulation, and unconstitutionality of everything the Gooberment does, yet be swept up in fear and panic on cue?
Sorry it doesnt work that way! If you want fear and panic in TODAYS American Idol Lady GaGa avg american, youre going to have to show nukes going off in major cities and thousands of shredded bodies!
AGAIN gooberment you cant have your idiot population AND fear and panic mode at the flip of a switch....the people dont give a shit theyre too dumbed down and stupid!
Hmmm! Too early to have caught it on the Daily Show.
So the bombs are coming over on UPS planes, but we're being shaken down, strip searched, radiated and deprived of water, toothpaste, and shampoo.
+1
...on UPS planes....
Keep in mind UPS is jockeying for bailout bucks, so they're happy to serve their country any way they can.
"he was notified at 10:35..."
Reminds of the "Chicken Little" story! Nothing to see here folks.
Just in time for the late shows. I'm sure he was notified, briefly, followed by chips, dip, and merriment.
Maybe it was that Osama Bin Laden guy . . . I heard he is in Yemen now. Let's print another quadrillion and start the "War on Questionable Mail Parcels" with Yemen being the new target. I'm sure our overextended and pissed-off GIs will be up for another never-ending adventure courtesy of the financial and military-industrial complex.
'The president was notified at 10:35 of possible inkjet cartridge bombs, interrupting his wifes Santaria animal sacrifice and his session with his homies P Diddy and Biggie Smalls chillin around the crack hookah'
Whatever...another episode of American Idol is coming up, nothing to see here.
Previously Prepared but Unreleased
Statement of White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs
The President was notified of a potential terrorist threat on Thursday night at 10:25, by John Brennan, Assistant to the President for Homeland Security and Counter-terrorism. The President, wearing just a towel, was informed by the First Lady from within their suite that he had not yet finished her muffin. The President directed U.S. intelligence and law enforcement agencies, and the Department of Homeland Security, to come the fuck back in ten minutes if they couldn't figure the shit out on their own. For emphasis, the President abruptly delivered his towel to Mr. Brennan's face and returned bare-assed to the Presidential suite. The President, to Mrs. Obama's frustration, has received regular updates from his national security team since he was alerted to the threat.
I thought barry X was on his hajj to his boyhood madrassa already?
What a coincidence, with an election coming up.
Who cares? Dumbed down sports junkie Lady GaGa stupefied dumbass america?
Who needs armies when 19 men have a nation shitting in its pants for 10 years. To our "enemies", save money, abolish your army BUT threaten America with 25 men!
maybe everyone else was shitting their pants. I was face-palming over the idiocy of the American public, but now I don't care.
Americans dont even have the sense to know the financial system is completely destroyed, dumbed down in their big pharma drug stupors, but are now supposed to panic on cue due to a suspicious inkjet cartridge in England? Who gives a fuk?
Dog,
In through the nose....out through the mouth.
Story continues UAE commercial jet with "package" on board inbound. Military jet escorts.
And again, I think this is all to hide the fact that the BAC Implode-0-Meter is freakin' screaming....
The 'invisible hand' holding up BAC is more like a super crane!
It is the most glaring sell signal out there today...that I can see.
Look at it on a 1 day /1 minute chart!
Hey idiot Obama and you morons in the CIA...youre going to have to do a HELL of a lot more to put the american people into fear and panic 'Ooo big gubmint, please come save me I'll vote ya in' youre going to have to show their neighbors burned corpses! Less than that, america is sitting at home on 99 weeks of unemployment and stuffing free Gubment twinkies in their faces, fixated on TV!
YOU made them dumbed down morons, now DEAL with it!
I believe those are cheese doodles. Added benefit- the monosodium glutamate can have neurotoxic effects!
What a surprise this warning comes on the day TSA institutes its new genital fondling searches.
This is only normal manipulation.
Move along. Enjoy the groping.
Lol! They should let only rapists and child molesters do the searches because we know they will be thorough.
IntelCenter must be ready to launch new fear films.

Interesting choice of word. Hmmmm. I thought it was just a toner cartridge with a wire taped to it? Odd?
But I'm sure my government will keep me properly informed. They would want me to know how incompetent they are.
Can hardly wait to try out one of those TSA porn scanners :) I expect they work really well when looker for toner cartridges.
Hello out there America....Bueller...Bueller...Bueller...
Not me. Non-ionising radiation causes cataracts and other forms of cancer. Let the poor TSA schmucks who have to work around these things all day worry about those little problems after months of exposure. Remember than Big Sis declined to go through one, and I doubt you will see many (if any) other senior official show their solidarity with the rest of the sheeple by going through one themselves.
