As per previous speculation, I have a fear, which I hope is groundless, that the neocon revolution isn't going entirely as per plan and there may be some desire to "shake things up a bit" to get the program back in order. The JBR/Gosch stories may be a small sign of shoring up support in advance of some future events. <br><br>Since 9/11, implementation of neocon plans and ambitions have been largely successful (at least for them!), but things are starting to go against the neocon agenda as noted in a non-comprehensive list below of neocon reverses the like of which we haven't seen for years now: <br><br><!--EZCODE UNDERLINE START--><span style="text-decoration:underline"><!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>Economy</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--></span><!--EZCODE UNDERLINE END--><br><br>If the US economy goes off the rails, so will China's as it relies on exporting to the American market. We could be looking at a serious worldwide recession.<br><br>A potential mechanism is staring us in the face. The housing market of the US which has been the post tech bubble engine for the US economy is collapsing. If this trend continues it may result in major US and worldwide recession. <br><br>A relatively impoverished and unemployed US population, armed with growing knowledge that there are lots of things that aren't right, is a major uncertainty for the elites to manage. There is some possibility that the methods adopted to keep the general population compliant and obedient may not be effective in a challenged economic environment.<br><br><!--EZCODE UNDERLINE START--><span style="text-decoration:underline"><!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>The War on Terror is stumbling</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--></span><!--EZCODE UNDERLINE END--><br><br>The alleged terror plot in the UK hasn't been well received by the population. It really did fall kind of flat. Widespread scepticism reigns amongst people of all political persuasions. Even the mass media is referring to the incident as "the alleged terror plot".<br><br>Scepticism of 9/11 is growing. Griffen's book had sold 80,000 copies by the end of 2004 <!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://www.septembereleventh.org/newsarchive/2004-12-11-vancouversun.php" target="top">www.septembereleventh.org/newsarchive/2004-12-11-vancouversun.php</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--> and I've seen reports it is now well over 100,000 copies, all by word of mouth as the book hasn't been promoted or reviewed by traditional sources. Loose Change has been downloaded over 10,000,000 times. Scholars for 9/11 Truth is getting traction in terms of media coverage, official membership <!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://www.scholarsfor911truth.org/WhoAreWe.html" target="top">www.scholarsfor911truth.org/WhoAreWe.html</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--> , and publications <!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://911review.org/ScholarsforTruthabout911/" target="top">911review.org/ScholarsforTruthabout911/</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--> . 9/11 skeptics used to be ignored, now they are starting to get attention and frankly the debunking efforts haven't been working nearly as well as the previous method of simply ignoring the questions posed.<br><br>The combat operations in Lebanon, presumably part of Perle's grand strategy to "Secure the Realm", <!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://www.iasps.org/strat1.htm" target="top">www.iasps.org/strat1.htm</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--> went very badly. Media and public relations efforts to sell the combat operations and aerial bombardment also went very badly. Hezbollah gained prestige in the Arab world for standing up to a high tech foreign military, and gives hope to other national resistance movements of being able to engage off modern Western militaries, if only to hold them off and inflict significant casualties.<br><br>There is frustration over the reluctance and/or tardiness of a proxy (US or Turkey) to invade Syria and Iran to continue execution of the "Securing the Realm" strategy. Efforts to sell expanding ground warfare and subsequent occupation in the Middle East must be doubled and redoubled.<br><br>The huge sucking sound of Iraqi combat operations of US/UK military prestige and treasuries. The Realm is not being secured there that's for sure! British troops recently abandoned a base in Iraq as they grew weary of the constant shelling of it.<br><br><!--EZCODE UNDERLINE START--><span style="text-decoration:underline"><!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>Political Events</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--></span><!--EZCODE UNDERLINE END--><br><br>Bush and Blair, the two most prominent neocons continue to drop in public support, reaching new lows. Canadian neocon Harper is sinking in popularity like a rock in Canada, despite having favourable media coverage and without a viable opposition going after him. He's doing it all on his own. Italy lost its neocon government. Probably more of this going on than I know about.<br><br>The Mexican election fix to establish a neocon into power was poorly executed and significant numbers of Mexican people are protesting vigorously. Obrador is not doing a Gore and is talking about setting up a parallel government. This is being mostly blacked out from gringo news sources, presumably to keep the passive gringos from getting ideas.<br><br>Chavez is not shutting up and prospects to remove him from power seem limited. He is talking about an international 9/11 truth commission.<br><br>Anyways.......... I really hope that this speculation is wrong and things play out in an orderly, peaceful, and just manner and no umpleasent "shake-ups" beneficial to the neocons (or otherwise!) occur.<br><br><br><br> <p></p><i></i>
