The best revenge against terrorism is to keep right on living your life as before, to refuse to be cowed or intimidated.Quote:

Shocked and deeply saddened. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
Thanks for bringing that up again...I told the mod it was in response to seanchai's post and nothing was said about it after...it was left alone....so leave it alone.Quote:

I totally agree. The object of terrorism is to inflict terror. When you refuse to be terrorized you take back control of your life. I saw a TV report of a gathering in Santa Monica. They're having a small mini-marathon to honor the dead and the grieving and a big fuck you to the bomber(s).Quote:

Anyone Know what a False Flag Operation is? Every Major War in History has started with one....
Not saying our current government is responsible - but somebody is responsible for these horrible acts and its not always who they want you to think it is.
Just encouraging everyone to consider not only the acts but what reaction is being obtained and who benefits from that reaction
- Think for yourselves
- QUESTION EVERYTHING
False flag - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The real war today, is one of ideas, of how we solve human issues. The simplest solution, is for us to want for other people, what we want for ourselves. It is to treat others, how we wish to be treated. Terrorism is an attemp to make others live in fear. And fear makes people make irrational decisions. So part of the solution is to act rationally, and seek the truth. Besides finding the individuals responsible for this, maybe there will be a deepre reflection about the use of bombs, in general to solve human issues. A 'smart bomb' is still a bomb.Quote:

Information regarding the Central Intelligence Agency -sponsored Coup d'Etat has been largely declassified and is available in the CIA archives.[12]
The Anglo-Persian Oil Company changed its name to the Anglo-Iranian Oil Co in 1935, and was 100% British owned, not Iranian; the coup of 1953 which was co-ordinated by the US and the British led to the formation of the Iranian Oil Participants, not 5 American companies but a consortium made up of British, American and French companies -the author even has the audacity to cite an excellent book by Stephen Kinzer (note 12) which does a better job than this amateurish Wikipedia rubbish.
Question everything!! Indeed, especially Wikipedia!

I merely gave food for thought - Thinking is a good thing IMHO... yet this somehow got under your skin... it was not intended.
The Wiki link was provided for a general definition of what a false flag operation was. Many people actually have never heard the term. Sorry I didnt happen to have my copy of Websters handy - this apparently has offended you in some way...
False Flag operations by their nature are secretive and often can never be completely proven or dis-proven so there will be historical speculation about any of them - nice that you noticed this.
As for WWI - I urge you to read up on the circumstances around which America entered the war - specificlly the ocean liner Lusitania which may (or may not) have been part of a false flag operation - depending on your perspective, that is... History professors have debated this at some length - if you have the answer be sure to call them.
if Wiki offends you so much I urge you not to click on any of their links - its not a requirement to use the internet at any rate...
Lastly I find what has occurred in Boston a horrible act and tragic needless loss of life and harm.
