Does this thread topic remind you of anything currently going on overseas, that involves WMDs? Or anything in DC for that matter. They both involve sex scandals, too. And they both involve Iraq, the UK, Palestinians, al Qaeda, the progressive wing of the Democrat Party, Colin Powell, the Turkish group IHH, bad filmmaking, coincidental dates in September 2001, and mysterious guys from Los Angeles with alias Marc or Mike.
As a sidenote, Cap Hill Blue's Doug Thompson, in this old story involving UNSCOM's Scott Ritter, has very recently ended up in critical condition after an unfortunate random spontaneous incident... bovine intervention. I can't help but wonder if there is more there... there. http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/943322/posts?page=159#159
The last I remember seeing Doug Thompson here was when he apologized profusely for... something... Plagiarism? Fabricating/stealing a story? Allowing himself to get conned? I wish I could remember. Anyway, Doug then dropped off the face of the earth.
Okay. Here is Doug’s posting history here, right up until he disappeared. It seems he went a little off the deep end.

Yes, it’s a familiar dynamic, with some of the same players.
