Was America Suckered in by the Bush Terror Speech?

<!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>George Bush’s “Major Speech” Resets the Terror Trap!<br><br>Will America Take the Bait?<br></strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--><br><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>The best political weapon is the weapon of terror. – Heinrich Himmler</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--><br><br>On the morning of October 6th, George W. Bush made a not-for-prime time “major” speech before a select group of supporters. For those unfamiliar with the National Endowment for Democracy, rest assured that it is a highly controversial, tax-supported group that tries to influence elections in foreign countries. What a perfect audience for the President!<br><br>The speech was redundant and unremarkable, despite being hyped as significant’ and highly important. There was little new rhetoric and not an iota of comfort for a nation consumed with concern about the morass and turmoil in Iraq. There was, however a concerted effort to capitalize on a strategy that worked so well in the President’s rush to war in 2003: make them afraid.<br><br>The speech this morning was carefully constructed to prey upon the innermost fears triggered by the attacks of 9/11. It pulled out every available stop in an effort to use those alarms to gain support for staying the course in Iraq. The speech this morning was designed to once again lure Americans into the insidious and sinister Bushco Terror Trap.<br><br><!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>OILING THE SPRINGS</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--><br><br>In case you missed it, the tactics started early in the week. George Bush and Dick Cheney both got the word out last Monday: Without provocation, Bush’s senior aides warned that “a quick exit for US troops could sow a deadly harvest of future terror attacks on US soil.” At almost the same time, Cheney cautioned that Iraq could become a staging area for large-scale terrorist attacks on the United States if troops are withdrawn too early. They had tossed the public some food for future thought.<br><br>The next opportunity came at Tuesday’s press conference. The President was asked only ONE question about the war, yet he managed to repeat “terror” or “terrorist” SEVEN times during his exchange with reporters. “We also got [sic] to continue to make sure we meet our obligations to prevent further terrorist attacks,” Mr. Bush reminded us. “Iraq is a part of a global war on terror,” he insisted, without challenge or explanation, as usual.<br><br>The stage was set, subtly and craftily to try to win back waning support for the war. The main performance would be on Thursday, when the President would give his ‘”significant” speech to the nation. It would be “the latest shot in a volley of addresses on Iraq by top administration figures” ahead of a referendum on Iraq's draft constitution on October 15. With little fanfare, but with calculated measure, the Trap was being put into place. It was oiled and refurbished and ready to go.<br><br>And then it was almost speech time, and the nation waited. They could not have known that the Terror Trap was alive and well and about to be elevated to a new level of prominence.<br><br><!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>To see how Bush switched the bait on a new Terror Trap.....<br>FULL ARTICLE:</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--><br><!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://www.tvnewslies.org/html/reset_the_terror_trap.html">www.tvnewslies.org/html/reset_the_terror_trap.html</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--> <p></p><i></i>
