Found this link on Bhutto this am.(reddit)
http://www.sott.net/articles/show/146602-Bhutto-was-targeted-by-laser-beam-PPP-Claims
India Times has more on.
It follows on the laser theme. The MD at the scene of Bhuttos death said he had never seen this type of injury from a bullet-that it was new to him, and could be laser.
My theory is that that's why Mush got Scotland Yard to do investigation-he probably thinks with UK being US ally-he can control results. (Shades of Warren Com cross my mind here).
It also quashes the Mush theme that it was terrorist group like AlQaeda, Taliban (a convenient excuse for a corrupt ISI)since they would not have such technology.
It is also disturbing me to know why the US would be using such technology in Iraq-as it seems like a "crime against humanity" and even despite having airforce, and advanced munitions---lasers seem like "extreme use of force" against an enemy. While winning a war is the goal of any war--to behave like Ghengis Khan and treating Iraq like target-shooting practice at a fair is both disgusting and disturbing to me that the US could be found guilty of. Also makes me wonder about Pat Tillmans death.
I've read that the US military had technology and orders for guns which delivered "heat" as opposed to bullets(so it didn't kill)and GW/Cheney killed the order in support (and possibly lasers)and guns.
The extreme sociopathy of a Cheney/GW WH is being exposed piece by piece here as being bloodthirsty psychos instead of anything resembling a human being. Glimpses of that have been seen already in the amount of death row stays when GW was GOV of Texas, Blackwater and the Iraqi massacre, the killing of dogs there...
That's yours and my good name as an American that's at stake here, that's the rep of the US that these 2 are single-handedly destroying with thier not only oil-thirsty, but psychopathis blood-thirstiness also.
Use of lasers in war should be a wake-up call to the world-about revisiting guidelines for warfare and banning use of certain things, with punishments of war crimes.
You nailed LWM and others who think the wisdom of hindsight trumps hope of a differing type of future for America.
It does appear to be a passing of the torch.
While LWM stays stuck in the cut and paste world of thinking every 2 situations are exactly alike-the progress in technology, social, religious advancements that have been made in history PROVE that it is taking a leap of faith, or trusting ones' inner guidance. This is done by man's belief in himself and the ability to do better by relying on his own curiosity and openmind and final knowledge that no 2 situations are EXACTLY alike-and it's that small percentage of difference that propels progress.
It's accepting that you may be getting help in ones' mind/gut from as ouside source and trusting that.
It's my own trust in that fact that makes me more right than LWM. It's what others should see in themselves-no matter how much someone floods them with quotes of Churchill, Strauss, or any other "intellectual".
If LWM didn't stay stuck in the confines of his own mind-he would be on the cusp of realizing-like those that thought the world was flat----that cusiosity led man to realize the earth was indeed round.
So for those who are like him/her-think debate/intelligence is always written down-know that no 2 situations are alike and hold that in your mind. Know that voice telling you at times which way to move-is in fact REAL, and not necessary to be able to explain--but follow. I have my own way of knowing the truth of this-over all of LWMS, or anyone elses cut n paste
by my own stats of outcomes turning out to be true over cynics/divisionists that I hold in my own mind. Others can do this too, by starting to think for yourself-skipping right over the zero crediblity, authoritarian-like cut n pastes of LWM, the MSM and believe in the intelligence of one's own "mind" to know AND FEEL the truth of oneself perspective of the world.
A robot can cut and paste-you were given the gift of a brain for a reason-----USE IT, ADVANCE IT, KEEP AN OPEN MIND,LISTEN TO YOUR "VOICE".
