But given what we've seen of this administration so far, I don't discount anything.
Paul Joseph Watson and Alex Jones of Prison Planet offer an alternate version of why General Kevin P. Byrnes got canned.
It's a wild and wooly account which includes speculation that Byrnes tried to stop a plot to turn a Northern Command exercise into a staged terrorist attack and that he was also part of a cabal within the military to stop the neocons from conducting war against Iran.
Take a salt tablet and read the story. And look to see if the mainstream media covers it.
The sad part about the Prison Planet story is that given the thugs that control the government, such a scenario is easily believed.
ReplyDeletePut nothing past the neocons, Jeff.
Lamentably, too easily believed, Bob. No, put nothing past them.

I saw this floating around the 'sphere, and also the 'Bush indictment' bit as well. (Check technorati.com if you're not already aware of that.) Folks seem evenly divided as to whether it's a hoax or a real leak. I'm in the office, so I haven't had time to research it!
ReplyDeletePlease let me know what you find out. I will do same.
ReplyDeleteYou may have seen this story already on Daily Kos, but iCassandra had a more plausible take on Byrnes' dismissal

Bottom line: Byrnes was dismissed for political reasons. Eminently plausible IMO.
As for the Bush indictment thing -- that seems to have died, and the only thing I could find on it was "Ooh, neat, it's the top search on Technorati." Meta-news.
Yeah. Her version sounds entirely plausible.
