There will conveniently be a horrific attack attributed to a person linked to the violent Right, and therefore cast as a representative of the entire Right. Of course it will be against either blacks, Hispanics, gays, lesbians, muslims, or women and children. Theyre not very creative. That is because they have Hollywood on their side. (They truly believe that good images are better than good logic.)
Another example is how they have successfully convinced most people that the NAZIs are on the right, when they were a basically middle of the road Leftist party of the day. They were national leftists; they were opposed by the international leftists, and after the national leftists were defeated in WWII, the left defined the defeated leftists as “the right”.
They have lost the ability to do that sort of framing and re-defining.
Will they resort to actually creating a provocation. I doubt it. There is much to lose, because they are likely to be found out. They no longer can be sure of cover from the government institutions. The media is not theirs to control anymore. There are millions of bloggers and citizen reporters, and potential leaks in their own ranks.
Wiki-leaks terrifies them.
It could happen. Lots can happen. But I think the odds are against it.
Let's say for the sake of argument that Adam Lanza was groomed via the internet to shoot up a school. How would we find that out?
