February 24, 2004 -- WASHINGTON - The Pentagon has dispatched the elite commando force that hunted down Saddam Hussein to Afghanistan for a new operation aimed at getting Osama bin Laden, officials said yesterday. Military sources confirmed that members of the shadowy Task Force 121, the unit that conducted the high-tech search for Saddam and his henchmen, have recently begun operating in the remote mountainous region along the Afghanistan-Pakistan border where bin Laden and key al Qaeda and Taliban fugitives are believed to be hiding. The Task Force is made up of highly trained Delta and SEAL commandos, as well as CIA paramilitary operators. It operates outside normal military channels.

Maybe it is to shift the world power, but no one can gain power if everyone is nuked.

And that is from a Top Super Secret Source too, no?
Time to call off the NEST searches....Are you comfortable with that?

First of all, you are using logic, stop that.
Second of all, no one is or was counting on 'us' nuking anyone. Just the US being the receiver.

I think that are stance should be that if any country send nukes to US, we automatically send nukes to Moscow. For example, let's say that some how Brazil was mad at US and obtained nukes...they fire on the US...we automatically send nukes to Moscow, even if Moscow is not involved ;)

The only thing the posts from this guy (I've never seen this poster before) or Daleel and EOM have in common for me is that they misspell the easy words and spell the hard words correctly. I find that odd, as if though they were intentionally (in a dumb way) trying to misspell words.
Has anyone else notice this?

I do think, though, that our intelligence has some inkling of who is involved in what and what everyones position is. Someone with money has to have intelligence on a strike against US...if we take out all the people/countries that COULD do this, I'm should we would catch the guy/country...and the countries that don't have any idea what happened...in the end we will get the country that allowed the US being nuked.

Thanks. That's what I thought, but there's nothing like being sure.

We therefore were also tasked to provide those countries secretly with weapons of mass destruction, because Andropov concluded that the Yankees would never attack a country that could retaliate with such deadly weapons."If we crush North Korea, that changes the equation a bit, doesn't it?

that's happening now, the free trade agreements and globalism are already shifting world economic power away from the US.

We did just that. Remember the Pentagon leaked a classified report has warned that the US will be ready to use nuclear weapons against China, Russia, Iraq, North Korea, Iran, Libya and Syria and also in an Arab-Israeli conflict.

If that is the case, the gain of power would go to Australia or South Africa or the like...I'm sure that these countries could care less whether US or Russia or China has the power. They just want enough money for food. I see Australia as a big power hungry state. Again there is no point to nuke the US unless they want the world to end.

yes. That is one of the things we've talked about on this thread.
Ever see NW_AZ's posts about googling the mispelled words?

In how many years, this must be what the 35th coup? Haiti - Coups R Us. They are almost as proficient as the Italians albeit the Italians usually take a more formal polital approach to toppling their government.
Looking at the map, Haiti is a useful position to keep an eye on Cuba. Yanking Aristide ingratiates the locals to the U.S.. It's pretty "convenient" timing in light of the recent E.O. regarding Cuban waters.

That is the case; but those are not the countries that were trying to shift the world powers.
