05-06-06 - A Bush/Neocon/Zionist Atomic 'Incident' In The US?
I have been speaking about some kind of an "October Surprise," i.e. some kind of a spectacular event designed to assist Bush and his Republicans to overcome growing evidence that his party will be obliterated at the November, 2006, mid-term elections. I have seen a number of vague references to something of this sort on various speculative websites but there is certainly strong evidence that such a project is being discussed. Same here.

It was first put forth in a column for the American Conservative by former CIA official Philip Giraldi.

05-06-06 - Lebanese premier to urge British pressure on Israel Lebanese Prime Minister Fuad Siniora is to urge his British counterpart to put pressure on Israel to withdraw from contested territory at the convergence of Lebanon, Syria and Israel.
