Comments on: Chertoff Fears Homegrown Terrorism Abroad

U.S. Homeland Security Secretary Worries Europe Can Be A Staging Ground For Future Attacks

[prinzowhales]

Comrade Chertoff will not examine why good agents of the Federal Bureau of Incompetence were ordered off of the trail of the bin Ladens...He will not address the fact that many of the 9-11 patsies gained admittance to the US through a CIA-controlled visa mill in Saudi Arabia...He will not address the CIA rendition/drug smuggling planes that went down in Mexico...he will not address the cut columns at the base of the WTC which could not have been precision cut by aviation fuel burning dozens of floors above...Chertoff and his gangsters are not protecting the border which is wide open...he is not investigating why the FBI prevented patriotic agents from checking the hard drive of the "20th hijackers''s" computer...

...Chertoff is a facilitator of terrorism...He refuses to deal with the revelations of Sibel Edmonds the FBI translator who named the treasonous dogs who betrayed America and is now under a national security gag order from the black-robed bench monkeys of the Regime.--She has their pictures with no captions on her web sites...This is what Freedom of Speech has devolved into under the Bush/Chertoff Reich!

canyoutellme - were you being serious or facetious when claiming the US is going to attack Europe?! After all, that doofus Scott Ritter keeps saying "July 200_". Been 3 years now, maybe he will be right one year... "July 20__"?

I''m assuming you were making a funny, but no doubt some (usually the uber-left-winged pests) would take you seriously. :(

Europe is technically closer to where the bulk of terrorists come from, but Mr. Chertoff''s hypothesis is a justifiable one.

What we, the American public, need to do is stop shilly-shallying on political forums knocking every politician, left or right or inbetween or way-out and be vigilant -- but not cross the line into paranoia. Or, to rephrase, when out and about to keep an eye out for suspicious events, but without descending into paranoia and finger pointing. We''re not 10 anymore, though many people prefer to act like they are.

Some terrorist attacks in other countries (e.g. the one in Heathrow from several months ago) were thwarted because somebody DID see something odd and reported it.

Chertoff - wasn''t he Brownies boss when Katrina attacked the USA?

Promoted, wasn''t he???

Did he make this announcement at a faux press conference?

Jeeze, this administration has nothing left but fearmongering...

"Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. This is easy. All you have to do is to tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifist for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in every country."

at the Nuremberg Trials after WWII

Notice how the lying pig Chertoff ignores the fact that a consulting firm was conducting anti-terror drills at the very same stations at the very same times as the attacks in London...He ignores the head of the exercises, Peter Power, who admitted to this on the BBC and now flees in panic from WE ARE CHANGE, London, rather than repeat his gaffe.

He ignores the fact that witnesses in London testified to the fact that the floors of the carriages were blown upwards...from explosions under them--not from explosives in back packs as the Official London Lie goes.

This liar was a Federal Attorney and helped cover up the Federal involvement in the running of the 1993 attack on the WTC, where the feds trained the driver, cooked the bomb, provided the detonator and timer and refused permission to their agent provocateur inside the conspiracy to replace the explosives with a harmless powder...making the FBI responsible for the murder of 6 New Yorkers...there would have been more if the driver was smart enough to follow the FBI''s instructions and park by a major support column.

[prinzowhales]

Chertoff, po russki, means ''of the devil''...and he looks the part...Mr. Death-warmed-over is the head of the Police State...he is a Zionist, an Israel-firster, a member of the Regime that has contracted for the services of Marcus Wolf, former head of the East German STASI and KGB''er Primakov--do these sound like resumes for men who will fight for your freedom, or the resumes of men who are seeking to establish a Police State?

FDR was a fascist. If you carefully study the parallels between Hitler and FDR on economic and political strategy, you will find them very comparable. Heck, they both even created concentration camps for ethnic groups they didn''t like--Jewish for Hitler, and Japanese for Roosevelt.

Anyone who thinks FDR was a good president is the fascist we need to fear. FDR alone couldn''t have made America into the fascist state it has become anymore than Hitler alone could have converted Germany to a fascist state. They both needed the popular support of millions of misguided people. America is fascist because rank and file Americans have embraced fascism.

By the way, Benito Mussolini (an expert on fascism if there ever was one) defined fascism as the merger of government and business into all-encompassing State control. He said that fascism should really be called Corporatism. By his definition, America is certainly fascist.

chertoff and bush/cheney better be more worried about the american terrorism accross america instead of worring about other countrys..

we the people have had it with washington

[walt1944-2009]

The Great Emperor Bush II and the Fascist neocon Republicans have been criticizing FDR and his reforms of the 19930''s (which suceeded in taking us out of the Depression), stating that Roosevelt''s social programs began the process of bankruptng the country!

One of FDR''s most famous quotes used during the Depression and later in WW II was, "the only thing we have to fear, is FEAR itself"!

For the past 6 years, the Great Emperor Bush II and his Fascist neocon Republican allies have been having us live in FEAR of being attacked by "terrrrrorists" hiding beneath every rock and behind every tree. He also neglected to mention that we are also under attack by GREEDY businesses, UNCARING employers, CROOKED politicians, and FASCISTS dedicated to tearing up the Constitution and taking away our civil liberties!

If FDR were alive today and president, he would have every neocon arrested for treason, starting with the Bush family!

SIG HEIL, BUSH!!!

[liberalme]

Ok lets go to level orange now--this is the level to be on guard from our own government scare tactisc--what''s coming up that they want to diverit our attention from?

Its THEIR JOB to protect our boarders--get somebody on it Chertoff!

If we do suffer another attack, it will probably be with the arms Bush is selling to the Saudis! The turncoat!

At this point--I''m more afraid of this government than anything else!

Dr. Ron Paul is the only man capable of ending terrorism.

To quote Ronald Reagan "here we go again". America should wake up to the fact that we will never be safe, unless we protest our government on all levels. Fear is not liberty or it justification for taking away human and civil rights. We should not drink anymore of this kool aid. Mr Chertoff and other people that practice fear monger should not be allowed to speak unless they have difinite proof and it can be verified by others. America should read, listen and read again.

"One of the things we''ve become concerned about lately is the possibility of Europe becoming a platform for a threat against the United States," Chertoff said.

Washington has no plans to start asking Europeans to apply for visas to travel to the United States but they could be required to register online before traveling, Chertoff said."


LORD, truly help us, if we have to start profiling the avg. Euro for being a potential terrorist. Profiling only works when we can target a specific group based on physical differences--with most Europeans being white and looking like much of America--everyone will be a suspect. LOL

[sgtrds]

Be afraid! Be very very afraid! And then vote republican!

[rukindr]

Sweet! Does this mean we get to start holding Europeans prisoner too without due process for an indefinite period of time? It''s every dictators dream!
