More Scaremongery: Inhofe Warns ISIS "Developing A Method To Blow Up A Major US City"

Tyler Durden's picture




 

Last night it was SecDef Chuck Hagel who warned ISIS was a bigger threat to America than 9/11 and primed the narrative for the next round of defense-spending (and this deficit-boosting, QE-enabling money printing). Today it is Senate Armed Services Committee member Jim Inhofe who told Fox that "we're in the most dangerous position we've ever been in as a nation." While that seems a little bit of stretch (oh and hasn't the Senator seen stocks?) he adds - rather ominously, "they're crazy out there and they're rapidly developing a method of blowing up a major U.S. city and people just can't believe that's happening." But then again, when have we ever needed to 'believe' anything anyway (especially without YouTube clips to prove it).

 

Senator Inhofe explains...

 

As Fox notes,

ISIS, they are really bad terrorists, they're so bad even Al Qaida is afraid of them,” Inhofe said reflecting on the recent beheading of American journalist James Foley. Beyond the beheading, Inhofe said the current terror organizations are not going to stay contained to the Middle East. “They're crazy out there and they're rapidly developing a method of blowing up a major U.S. city and people just can't believe that's happening.”

 

Inhofe blames policy decisions from the Obama administration and cuts in defense spending for putting the country in what he calls a dangerous situation.

 

He's [President Obama] going to have to come up with something that we're going to do because they're holding another hostage in place and the problem is, the President says all these things and he never does them,” Inhofe said.

 

Inhofe said he hopes after the mid-term elections there will be more Republicans in the Senate and more of a willingness for both parties to work on restoring cuts to defense spending.

*  *  *

So - to confirm - this is a massive threat that needs a solution, that is Obama's fault because he cut spending, but we need to cut spending more? Okeydokey then...

"make it about obama, soros"

i rarely mention obama, i only mentoned it above because it is the current administraion trying to whip people into a furor over everthing arab, which you seem to be buying into. You havent even made an attempt to refute anything ive said, namely, that you are succumbing to the very fearmongering that this article was about. Also, you are projecting, big time. Not once have i ever said anything about soros, or infowars, havent linked to either of them, ever, as far as i can remember. Congratulations on living in new york on 9/11, that doesnt mean a thing to me, so were millions of other people. As for the whole rascist, old libertarian, or whatever dumb shit you said, Im 29. And please point out to me how stating the fact that black males commit far more crimes against others than muslims, or that cops have killed more americans since 9/11 than 'terrorists' makes me a rascist, wanna be libertarian. As has been pointed out many time on here, you are full of shit. There are plenty of other sites out there that are more friendly to your world view, i suggest you seek one out

Not to stir the pot, but that was weak sauce. We all have to take responsibility for events. No one gets out of this.

I would not have got off the train, instead if she looked nervous or edgy I would have stood next to her and watched her and the duffel bag like a hawk.

If it was all good I would bid her a good day as I got off the train, and I would mean it.

If she opened the bag I would not hesitate to look inside it. That's just how I am. I pay attention to everyone and everything all the time. It's a cat thing I can't help it and I don't feel bad that I do it, either.

If she reached into the bag and started to pull out a gun -- or a pin inserted in a device -- I would grab her arm and then hit her so hard it would probably break her jaw. I would worry about the repercussions later. Survival first, and that means myself and her and everyone on the train.

I try to be smart about things, am always careful, try to be considerate. But I am at all times 100% of the time all day every day absolutely ruthless. I never worry about situations or imaginary shit exactly because I pay attention to what exactly is going on, and I will move if I have to and move very quickly, and once I am in motion I will very quickly get around anyone and anything gets in my way. Period. No questions. Get in and get out.

I have had a few situations in my life. I once disarmed a guy with a hand gun. He had a look in his eye when he walked into the bar, and I didn't like it one bit so I stopped reading my book and just watched him take a seat. He pulled out a gun and held it under the table. He was probably just confused and depressed but I didn't give a shit. I remember thinking one very primitive and extremely predatory thought -- "mine" -- then I hit him so fast he never saw it. Broke a chair, turned over a table. Just really fast. His gun was then my gun, and that situation was resolved. I waited for the cops and never heard anything more about it.

Shit like that. You just pay attention doing and feeling nothing at all -- and then you move so fast time stops.

Means I can relax and enjoy the train ride, and be kind to people, and still deal with shit when shit shows up.

Gonna need at least a half-megatonne payload to blow up a large city... and ISIS are "rapidly developing" that capability?  Very impressive.  Iran has supposedly been working on nukes for the last 20 years and they still havent managed to make one.

We need to target the ISIS nuclear scientists, centrifuges and nuclear reactors NOW before it's too late.  If we leave it any longer, they might use their gigantic particle accelerator to create antimatter.

This can only be achieved if all western citizens are disarmed and placed under constant surveillance.  We need police officers on the streets with automatic weapons and APCs NOW!  BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE!

as long as john kerry is the point man. He made it clear he was willing to fight for his country in a just war, just thought it was wrong to "send people to a foreign land to fight an enemy that poses no threat to America", and thats its wrong to send more people to die "for a mistake" when we had already annouced our intention to withdraw from vietnam over the next couple of years. Now that he feels this is a good enough reason to send YOUR kids to fight and die, and he obviously fears an invasion, which surely must be imminent, Im sure he will have no problem fighting in this war....

The CIA and Mossad are plotting to blow up another city?!

 

Here is something beautiful and fateful to contemplate instead of their treasonous fear mongering:

 

"When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.--Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world..."

An American, not US subject.

9/11 did a pretty good job of covering up and explaining away the 2001 recession. It'll be interesting to see what BS is needed to cover up the early stages of collapse of the US in 2015.

They really are going balls to the wall with ISIS is everywhere and scary crap. That they're going to attack US cities, etc. Meanwhile the border is virtually unprotected. Sort of like they are inviting something, no?

And then we have the plea about reversing defense spending cuts. They're in downright hysterics over how draconian these cuts are, how the military will be hobbled to the point of being unable to defend us, etc etc. The army goes from 520K to 420K, the marines from 190K to 182K. And they are literally saying the cuts are leaving us defenseless. If that's the case, we need to get rid of the 420K remaining and replace them with the 100K we're cutting, since they're clearly the ones doing all the work.

Seriously, fuck these scaremongers and their false flags and their bullshit rhetoric.

They neglected to mention their "plan" to blow up a major city involves the following components:

  • Bic Lighter
  • Broken AK 47
  • Anything they can build from parts of a Toyota Hilux

O and Mccain funded these Syria "Freedom Fighters" to fit their agenda. McCain had his pic taken with them. They funded them with guns from Libya to Turkey port and then into Syria never thinking they would morph into this killing mahcine like the Nazzi machine.

They are not leaving the boarder open to let them in to attack us. The left wants the cheap votes and the right wants cheap labor from the open boarder. They are both risking us for their agend.They are both niave to think terrorists have not already crossed that boarder. How many heads on a pike have there been right over the boarder in Mexico. How about the bodies skinned? Who do you think is teaching that?

I have not believed in red/blue in 10 years. The problem with propraganda is when no one beleives anything no one can see the truth. It is like some of those bankers having their coming to god moment realizing what they have done.

 

On this site anymore if you don't say gold bithced or silver bitches or the jews did it or the Rothchilds you get attacked. I have been here since 2009. All of a sudden I am a .gov troll.

If Israel is such a bad enemy of Islam then they would have attacked.

 

Is it a PROBABILITY that they are MOSSAD Operations?

Why did al Qaeda, NEVER ONCE, ATTACKED ISRAEL?

 

Why did ISIS not attack Israel?

 

DO NOT IGNORE THEM...ANSWER THEM.

 

Israel is their sworn enemy.

 

Or are they working FOR THE ISRAELI Government's MOSSAD?

 

Demonstrate that you can understand this cognitive dissonance. That is the part that does not make any sense whatsoever...unless those organizations are working for Israel.

You realise that Israel is only 180 miles long by 50 miles wide and is surrounded on 3 sides by Jordan, Lebanon, Syria and Egypt and on the 4th side by the mediterranean sea? Now, these ISIS guys are in northern Syria and northern Iraq. At the nearest they would be ~300 miles north of Israel.

Al Quaeda seem to be most active on the Afghan/Pakistan border... That's on the other side of Iran, 1500 miles away from Israel.

Have you ever... looked at a map of the world? You may have a large sphere sitting on a desk somewhere in your home, if it isn't a soccer ball, it could be what is called a "Globe of the World" it could help you understand how the world fits together.

who needs ISIS to kill americans:

 

Man Murdered on Video by St Louis Police

This video shows a call about a man who stole a couple donuts. He stays there waiting for the police to show up. They get there are tell him to drop a knife and just kill him with multiple shots. There is no attempt to disarm him and he is not even lunging at the police. They seem to think they have the right kill people outright.

and

A 22-year-old man was shot and killed last week in an Ohio Wal-Mart after failing to obey police officers’ orders to put down a bb/pellet rifle he was holding and purchasing. Beavercreek police say officers followed proper protocol when they shot John Crawford III in the store

Normally I'd agree, but he wasn't threatening anyone else at that moment and the police could have easily backed away from him to buy some time to react and talk the dude down. It'll go down in the books as a good shoot, but it could have easily been handled in a less agressive manner and probably resulted in the guy going to an inpatient psychiactric facility and not a morgue.

I understand your point, and it certainly has merit.  I can assure that the majority of LEO's don't really want to shoot anybody (some might, no doubt about it).  I'm willing to cut these guys some slack based on how they are taught/trained.  They will shoot you if you have a knife, and you make one step towards them.

A guy with a knife (not trained in how to wield it) is actually easier to deal with than a guy without a knife since you really only have to deal with one arm instead of 2 if they want to play fistycuffs. A trained law enforcement officer should be able to take advantage of that and have the training to disarm a one armed suspect without shooting them to death. Either close quarters or using something like a taser or collapsible baton to crack them first before they can get close enough to use the knife.

Fri, 08/22/2014 - 16:58 | 5131520 Jethro
Jethro's picture

I'm sorry, but I have to disagree with you on this matter.  Physically closing in on a perp with a knife is nothing to take lightly (especially one that is clearly expressing a will or desire to die).  I've rolled with quite a few cops, and precious few of them have any real training beyond what they did at their academy.  My background, experience and training simply prevent me from being able to agree with your premise.  I have quite a bit of training and experience, and I would have shot the knife weilding dude coming at me too.

The Military/State Dept Dip Sec/Federal agencies/ & most LEO agencies operate on the Force Continuum doctrine.  The tool or weapon deployed by the "good guy" is always +1 greater than the tool or weapon deployed by the "bad guy".  For example, non compliance escalation of force goes like this; Presence, verbal commands, pain compliance measures, CS/Pepper spray, baton/taser, then firearm as a weapon of last resort.  You can zip through the list in a second if threatened with a deadly weapon, which is what these cops did.  Knife = deadly weapon, and the appropriate tool to respond with a deadly weapon is not a baton or taser, it's a firearm.

From your link....too funny....

The president of the world's most populous Muslim-majority country, Indonesia, on Thursday called the actions of Islamic State militants "embarrassing" to the religion and urged Islamic leaders to unite in tackling extremism.

Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono said the scale of the slaughter wrought by the extremists in overrunning large swathes of Iraq and Syria and the level of violence being used was appalling.

"It is shocking. It is becoming out of control," he said in an interview with The Australian, a day after IS released a video showing a masked militant beheading US reporter James Foley, provoking worldwide revulsion.

"We do not tolerate it, we forbid ISIS in Indonesia," he added, referring to the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant, as IS was formerly known.

"Indonesia is not an Islamic state. We respect all religions."

Horrific yes, but as a strategy of winning hearts and minds? Nope.

So why does isis think it cannot have done to it's mercenaries what previously backed cia selected dictators such as sadam and molimar had done to theirs? Why? I think because leadership here is complicit with the mercenary leadership of isis on many varying levels.....

Barksdale Missile Number Six: The Stolen Nuclear Weapon

http://www.abovetopsecret.com/forum/thread302187/pg1

Conclusion

Six nuclear weapons disappeared from Minot AFB in North Dakota.

Five nuclear weapons were discovered at Barksdale AFB in Louisiana.

Which leads to my chilling conclusion:

Someone, operating under a special chain of command within the United States Air Force, just stole a nuclear weapon.

Most of the people who bother to post comments on Zero Hedge already know that the events on 9/11/2001 were an inside job, false flag attack. That perception of politics, of course, changes everything, so that statements made by the banksters' politicians that refer to 9/11 appear in a Bizarro Mirror World, where everything they say is proportionately backwards, and whatever they say about "terrorists" tends to apply to themselves more than anyone else.

The overall situation was that the development of weapons of mass destruction, to become trillions of times more powerful than anything which previously existed in known human history, produced a psychotic society that was perpetually MAD, in a posture of Mutual Assured Destruction. Paradoxically, that MAD standoff enabled everything else to continue as if nothing had changed.

Any actual use of weapons of mass destruction against one or more American cities would change everything more than we can imagine. (Personally, I will probably presume that was another inside job, false flag attack, but that will not make any practical difference ...)
