This morning Fox News had the "Osama's Revenge" author, and there was breathless talk about how various intelligence services have information indicating that there will be tactical nuclear weapons detonated in eight or nine american cities in the next few weeks, and the nukes are already here in the States.... the Dem. convention starts in two weeks. Coincidence? I think not. To me, this perfectly fits the pattern of fear-mongering terror alerts that are used to make "favorable" (for Bush) headlines, distract us from scrutinizing unfavorable (for Bush) issues, and make us amenable to whatever dictatorial power grab the Bushites have in mind. We may indeed be lining in 1984.
