Deepak Chopra Blames Washington For Mumbai Terrorist Attacks
Gateway Pundit ^ | November 27, 2008 | Gateway Pundit

Deepok Chopra believes "Washington" was responsible for the attacks in Mumbai. HuffPo and CNN reported:

Chopra: What we have seen in Mumbai has been brewing for a long time, and the war on terrorism and the attack on Iraq compounded the situation. What we call "collateral damage" and going after the wrong people actually turns moderates into extremists, and that inflammation then gets organized and appears as this disaster in Bombay. Now the worst thing that could happen is there's a backlash on the Muslims from the fundamental Hindus in India, which then will perpetuate the problem. Inflammation will create more inflammation.

CNN: Let me jump in on that because you're presuming something very important, which is that it's Muslims who have carried out these attacks and, in some cases, with Washington in their sights.

Chopra: Ultimately the message is always toward Washington because it's also the perception that Washington, in their way, directly or indirectly funds both sides of the war on terror. They fund our side, then our petrol dollars going to Saudi Arabia through Pakistan and ultimately these terrorist groups, which are very organized.

Yeah, the Indo-Pak ‘Muslim war’ predates Bush.

You know the smell of BS by now.

Probably think americans do not follow international history. Wait maybe this dude needs to study his Pakistan/India history. India is allies with Russia which started this movement during the afghan war.

Deepak is full of ‘chopras’...India has been at ‘war’ with Pakistani extremists way before 9/11.

I thought India moved the Muzzies out when Pakistan was established.

The planning for this devious assault in Mumbai was in the planning stages long before the Indian Navy sunk the Thai fishing vessel that had just been captured by the Pirates.

It appears to be quite coincidental to that event.

When the event occured yesterday, that too was a thought of mine, but subsequent news stories prove it couldn’t be.

Oh no-it will still be Bush’s fault, Reagan’s fault, Nixon’s fault, Eisenhower’s fault, Hoover’s fault and so on and so forth.

The Iraq War was a horribly bad idea, with blowback in many directions.

The shadow government spent hundreds of millions of dollars or more in advertising costs (through its mainstream media arm) convincing Americans that the Iraq War was a horribly bad idea. This advertising went on the entire length of the Iraq war, to the present day.

Take a look at the two month advertising campaign against Palin, and look how successful THAT was. Multiply that by months and years.
