Unsubstantiated Internet Rumor Watch

One of those things I shouldn't post, but I will, with a big fat MAY BE TOTAL BULLSHIT caveat.

Scan down to the second or third headline: One of the suspected London bombers may have been recently released... from Gitmo.

If true, cuts a lot of ways, badly. The British government made a stink about us holding their citizens; Bush obliged Blair and released some. Dumb of Blair; dumb of Bush.

And dumb of the entirety of the left that is contantly demanding we let even more of these poor innocent-as-lambs casualties-of-circumstances go.

I haven't heard a blessed thing about any actual individual suspects in this slaughter thusfar, so I'm pretty skeptical. I don't mean names; I mean I haven't even heard Scotland Yard or MI-5 has their eyes on any particular person.

Still. There it is. Do with it what you will.

Thanks to JoeG.

Be very, very skeptical of that page. To my knowledge, not a single one of their scoops has ever panned out. Not one. They don't call it the World's Most Alarmist Website for nothing.

Unsubstantiated rumors have never stopped the lefttards. Hell, even after something is proven false or obvious by that O. Razor chap, they'll carry it with them straight off a cliff.

Veracity matters.

I don't particularly want to practice or tolerate the kind of speculative edifices found on the LLL sites.

I hold that the only destination for illegal combatants post Camp X-Ray should be an un-marked grave. They have been determined to be illegal combatants by a duly appointed tribunal as per the Geneva Conventions. The traditional sentance for being an illegal combatant is death.

If this report proves true, I'll have more arguments in support of my position above.

I say load the bastards up in a C-5 Galaxy like cattle with the story that we are flying them all back to Mecca, but "accidently" let one of them sneak a suicide bomb on the plane. Once over the ocean, our pilots bail out and we blow the thing up. There will be little terrorist pieces spread all over the Atlantic.

See the beauty of that?

And waste a perfectly good C-5?

Posted by: Slublog on July 7, 2005 11:39 PM

well, how many can ya fit on an aging Cessna?

Enough.

It's like the old joke about lawyers at the bottom of the sea - any number is a good start.

Being naturally bloody-minded, I had a nascent thought about the C-5 scenario where we could actually deliver them to Mecca and let them go....at about 30,000 feet. Saves the plane for later and all that.

But then I thought about the mess in the Grand Mosque, and defiling the Ka'bah, and what it would mean for my Muslim friends and, of course, the people on the ground. While I wouldn't shed a tear for those who taint civilians' sanctuary by attacking from within its bounds, there are others for whom the gesture would be offensive.

There may be more appropriate sites, however. I'm thinking particularly about the three stone pillars of Jumrat three miles to the East of Mecca. During the Hajj, in a ceremony called Ramy al-jimar, small stones are cast at the pillars to symbolize rejection of Satan. Would it be so wrong to have the Raining of Jihadists, where blockheads are ejected at some altitude toward the pillars, demonstrating an actual rejection of evil?

I'm no Theologian, however, so it's just a thought.....

it's raining men, hallelujah!

It's really really dumb to make too much of this.

The real danger of letting jihadi war criminals out of Gitmo is that they could carry out attacks. Making up a story where it did happen just makes our argument look silly when it's shown to be false.

How about this for a "news flash"? None of the 520 jihadi war criminals in Gitmo were able to participate in this attack on London.

(Although, of course, if we accede to the demands to close Gitmo and let the jihadis go, some of them just might be able to make it to the next attack and make sure more people get killed.)

Important Message from Recent Convert to Christianity and Yet Super-Serious Christian Tuq'r Qarlson: Actually Muslims love Jesus, it's Trump and his neocons who hate him
Tucker Carlson Network
@TCNetwork

The people in charge [Jews, of course -- ace] don't want you to know this, but Muslims love Jesus.

Islam reveres Him as a major prophet and messenger of the Lord, believes He performed miracles, and states that He will return to Earth to defeat the Antichrist. That's why Donald Trump's painting depicting himself as the Son of God offended the president of Iran. It was an attack on his religion as well as Christianity.

Trump's trolling tweet was ill-advised, but Tucker is just lying when he claims the Christianity-hating President of Iran was "offended" by this.
He's one step away from announcing his official conversion to Islam. He literally never stops praising Islam. Well, he suddenly became Christian two years ago, there's not much stopping him from converting again.
You can track Tuq'r's official conversion to Islam with this Bingo card.

@KFILE 21m

Politico is reporting that multiple people have abruptly resigned from Eric Swalwell's gubernatorial campaign: "Members of senior leadership have departed the campaign, including Courtni Pugh, a strategic adviser who served as Swalwell's top liaison to organized labor groups."

So the campaign is collapsing due to the truth of the sexual harassment allegations.
That hissing sound you hear is the air going out of the Swalwell campaign. UPDATE: No it wasn't, it was just Swalwell one-cheek-sneaking out a fart on camera
Eric Swalwell more like Eric Farewell amirite

Oil prices plunge on bizarre realization that Eric Swalwell may actually be straight. A rapey molester, allegedly, but a straight one.

This is super-obscure and I only barely remember it. Given that, I'll give you the hint that it's by the Red Rocker.

Oh, but then, you never were afraid

Oh, but it's alright with me now

Now twenty people will tell me it's not obscure, it was huge in their hometown and played at their prom. That's how it usually goes. When I linked Donnie Iris's "Love is Like a Rock," everyone said they knew that one and that his other song (which I didn't know at all) Ah Leah! was huge in their area.
