Allowing terrorist attacks opens the door to "national emergency" just in time for election season

"Every lie we tell incurs a debt to the truth. Sooner or later, that debt is paid"

I’m… honestly both in awe and aghast at how fucking blatant the regime is being about it. They’ve literally shut down the team that is in charge of addressing and categorizing security threats to the US originating from Iran immediately before starting a fucking war with Iran. Like… I just… what the actual fuck. I can’t even.

Between this and the documents leaked about their plans for the election, the intent couldn’t be more obvious if they put it on a fucking billboard. I hate that it comes down to such imbecilically stupid and petty US political bullshit like that, and that it’s killing so many people and fucking up so may other parts of the world… but seriously, I really think that was a massive part of their rationale here. It’s a distraction (operation Epstein fury), combined with creating an extremely obvious opening for an asymmetrical/terroristic threat that will be used as a justification for removing the electoral process. That’s the plan.

Sort of how George W had intel that Bin Laden was planning on flying planes into buildings months before 9/11. Lucky for George, he got his war and a 2nd term. Everybody else suffered.

if America gets attacked because of this fat man and his administration's war, a firing squad wouldn't be enough to quelch my rage.

He's getting his tiny rotten mushroom dick half hard at the idea of another 9/11 happening between now and the midterms - he'd so very happily sacrifice 10s of thousands of Americans if it meant more power for himself...

False flag operation incoming?

Anyone who didn't think this would increase the threat of terrorism has forgotten what they said they never would.

(Or they weren't born yet.)

What the fuck are they planning? Another Sep 11th?

They block and alter jobs numbers. This shouldn’t be a surprise.

Hey Iran, I bet you could get a sizeable bomb to maralago, just say you're giving him a golden gift and he'll be there. Maybe get lucky and his whole cabinet too.

I'll bet you half a peach that's not all they're blocking.

Cool, so while dimbulb donnie is invading other countries for no fucking reason and Stephen Miller is giving absurd quotas of brown people to kidnap and throw in concentration camps and/or extreme rendition, they are increasing the danger to all Americans on top of that?

Luckily the "highly qualified" head of Homeland Security just got replaced with someone new who in ADDITION to being unqualified is also inexperienced.

You don't need a warning, if you start a war in Iran there can be more terrorist attacks than before. But pretty shure Trump knows that and did it anyway. 

A Mediaite repost of Daily Mail...

I keep saying this over, and over, and over again in this community. Keep information hygiene in mind, please. Post the original source at least, and try to avoid serial reposters, like Mediaite. Mention Mediaite in the body as your original reference, if you wish.

...And try to avoid tabloids like Daily Mail, too, or at least mention a "take the source with a grain of salt" in the post's body if its an interesting original report. This is good reference to start with:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Reliable_sources/Perennial_sources

But no one ever cares.

Past commenters seem to agree when I bring this up, yet poster and mods don't do anything.

This is the final straw for me. I don't like blocking anything; I've only blocked two other Lemmy communities, one a bot spamming one. But I'm blocking /c/News, as apparently it isn't going to change, and I came to the fediverse to get away from mass-upvoted tabloid reposts flooding the top of my feed.

We are about to see what happens when you fire all the competent warfighters and national security personel only to replace them with skinheads, dropouts, and AI.

I hope this becomes a slasher film of the Epstein Class.

Continuing with his idea that if he can't hear it it isn't happening.

Well you don't need intelligence reports. The religious leaders of a religion of 150~200 million believers just declared a jihad against the US and Israel to avenge their equivalent of the Pope that is considered to have died in martyr. Even if only 0.01% of them are religious fanatics, you still have at least 15000 people convinced they'll go to heaven if they die in terror attacks against US or Israeli citizens.

White House blocking intelligence.

Isn’t there some 22 year old in charge of terrorism?
