Comments for Coddling Terrorists in Yemen »

Posted By markoller 1 year, 7 months ago in News

I only posted this article because it is such despicable propaganda. America ordered the Yemenis to frame their own people for the American/Israeli attack on the USS Cole, and they refused to cooperate. How dare they! Don't they know its anti-Semitism not to blame Arabs?

    The Yemeni authorities had good reason to think that the explosion was internal. The official lies about the Cole bombing are not as supremely ludicrous as the hijacked jets hitting the Twin Towers and the Pentagon or Israel mistaking the USS Liberty for the El Quseir, but it is still full of holes. Even the side of the ship facing the refueling dock was wrong, and the Navy admitted that the ship had been undergoing refueling for half an hour when the explosion took place. So much for the claim that a boat full of explosives squeezed in between the ship and the dock during mooring and rammed the port side of the ship. See http://whatreallyhappened.com/COLE/

    Nor could a boat containing 500 pounds of explosives cause as much damage to the ship. It would have required a large shaped charge, and explosives only The United States, Israel and two Arab nations possessed. Or, it was an internal blast.

      Please explain how an INTERNAL EXplosion can IMplode (IE, the hull plating is bent INWARDS towards the ship, NOT outwards).

      Voted for this story as the article itself is good.

        The hull plating bent inwards and outwards, but I admit the precludes an internal explosion. It must have been caused by a shaped charge, and the back blast bent some of the hull plating outwards.

          Mark - Your straws are thinner than a nanofilament....

          FYI - Shaped charge directs it's entire force in ONE direction... Backblast would be negligable (given the size required to create that hole, NOTHING solid would be within backblast distance - Ask a demolitions expert).

          Try again ?????

            I reexamined the hole, and I may have been too quick to believe theories that it was caused by a shaped charge or an internal blast, but it definitely was not caused by a boat between the ship and the refueling dock. Even if the port side was facing the refueling dock, it would not have caused as much damage. Perhaps, it was a mine.

            I recommend taking another look at http://whatreallyhappened.com/COLE/

          Neocons always say the Muslims always blame Israel for everything happening in the Middle East and Muslims suffering in the other part of the world today, for instance Indonesia and Somalia. The truth is Israel is the problem, without the country called Israel the Americans or the West will have no problem with Muslims. Dismantling Israel will relieve the world of so many problem, especially the so called terrorist problem. So war on terror should be directed against Israel not against innocent Palestinians and the other neighboring countries, they have the right to defend and liberate their land from occupiers and oppressors.

            Hello Daylight, nice to see you are still writing about all the evils of the world being due to the existence of Israel.

            But Israel is still there and due to Satan America not going any place soon. So I guess the rest of the world, including you, will have to suffer.

            Daylight I thought you was from India. I didn't know you was a real Palestinian.

            Dicax Maximus - My addiction to conspiracy theories began less than a year ago. I knew nothing about alternative theories of the collapse of the Twin Towers, then I read that the collapse of the towers at near free fall speed was suspicious, so I looked it up on the Internet. I was astonished to find that the buildings really were demolished with explosives, and every new revelation was more shocking than the one before. Soon I felt like Winston Smith in 1984. Now, I am beginning to appreciate the intellectual honesty of the Ingsoc party.

              Joe Scarborough, host of the MSNBC program, "News You Can't Use," confirmed that the government wants to send dissenters to concentration camps. Download http://humor.propeller.com/story/2008/05/18/con...
