Uh-oh, another Stadium gig..

[Et in Arcadia ego]

Evacuees by the thousands joined 300,000 others seeking refuge in shelters, schools and stadiums Tuesday as fierce winds pushed wildfires into new areas of Southern California.

Cheney is not Darth Vader, he's Michael Myers- he lives, and lives, and lives.....

Sorry, just needed to get that off my chest.

You think it's bad now wait until Blackwater comes in. Since the National Guard is off to Iraq, and Blackwater is getting kicked out, they should be showing up shortly to KEEP THE PEACE, They might not shoot too many people because they are wealthy and white but don't step out of line anyway!

So true shamus, this is the perect opportunity for the jackbooted thugs to shoot a bunch of Dem supporters.

Performance art...to the surreal degree. As the Grand Spectacle airs in Sci-Fi relief...the film of unreality wrapping this life-size program only serves to fuel the terror further. The less real things feel at the core, the greater the nightmare can become. I say it's sprouting wings about now. T.S. Eliot says it better, of course, but this morning, I just can't help myself.

Not to empower the spectacle any...just rubbing my eyes out loud....

SAN DIEGO, California (AP) -- Like Hurricane Katrina evacuees two
years earlier in New Orleans, thousands of people rousted by natural
disaster fled to the NFL stadium here, waiting out the calamity and
worrying about their homes.

The similarities ended there, as an almost festive atmosphere reigned
at Qualcomm Stadium.

Bands belted out rock 'n' roll, lavish buffets served gourmet entrees,
and massage therapists helped relieve the stress for those forced to
flee their homes because of wildfires.

MASSAGE THERAPISTS!!!!

I think its clear that in the near future when the big shoe drops(staged mini nuke/Bush assassination/economic collapse/allowed Hezbollah mass car bombs-shootings with La Raza MS-13 gangs from Mexico, whatever the nwo can think of) and martial law is declared...

Big football and baseball stadiums will be used as "FEMA CAMPS" as well as the big $300 million FEMA Halliburton camps.

It wont just be protestors or Muslims, theyre gonna wanna throw everyone they can in these, as curfews are imposed and millitary police and tanks patrol the cities.

While everyone says "oh man, look at those Nazi right wing millitia kooks, on their Alex Jones websites talking about wanting to retain gun rights and form possees to defend neighborhoods. Those right wing nuts talking about the constitution".

Why is it local Southern California newspapers are quoting authorities saying some of the fires appear "suspicious". What does that mean?

Via Cannonfire:

During the last week of July, fire officials in the Bay Area city of Campbell reported that two men had been seen videotaping routine activities at a fire station.

The men were reportedly in their 20s or early 30s, and one was using a sophisticated news media-style camera.

When firefighters attempted to talk with the men, they reportedly jumped into a waiting car and sped off.

The incident prompted the Sacramento Regional Terrorism Threat Assessment Center to send out a request for Northern California fire stations to watch for similar incidents, and report them immediately.

The day the request went out, Sept. 6, a second, similar incident was reported at a fire station in Yuba City.

According to officials, a fire captain encountered two men parked outside the city’s main fire station. One of the men got out and allegedly began taking pictures of the fire station’s administration building. When the captain approached the men, to tell them they were in a no-parking zone, the photographer jumped in the vehicle and the men left.

The man who took the photos was described as being between 30 and 40 years of age.

On Sept. 12, Fresno Fire Department officials spotted two men in a vehicle allegedly observing activities at a fire training center. When questioned, the driver reportedly said they were just checking things out, then left immediately.

Two days later, on Sept. 14, personnel from the Sacramento Metro Fire Department noticed two men taking photos of a fire station. A third man sat in the back of a car, and appeared to be drawing or taking notes. When fire officials walked toward them, the two taking pictures jumped in the vehicle and sped away.

The men allegedly took pictures in front of the station, and in the rear. They ranged in age from late teens to about 60, officials recalled.

From commenter and regular Cannonfire contributor dr. elsewhere:

I would, however, suggest naomi klein's 'shock doctrine' and her disaster capitalism thesis. these sorts of disasters have been playing right into the agenda of the creepos.

ok. call me highly suspicious, or downright tinfoil hat, BUT....

it just dawned on me, after commenting on this and the connection with naomi klein's disaster capitalism thesis (do read at least her article in last month's harper's)...

and now this article in salon on blackwater's determination to set up a HUGE training site in southern CA
http://www.salon.com/news/feature/2007/ ... ex_np.html
in order to position themselves to monitor our borders....

it would not surprise me in the least if this spate of fires is a major - and very very sick and EXTREMELY illegal - push on the part of blackwater to make itself 'needed' in that part of the country.

the fires, the borders, so many disasters, so much money and power, so little time...

mind you, i have no evidence whatsoever, and i fully acknowledge that. but, given the stakes and the history, i would not put it past them to pull something just like this.

when you don't get what you want, or when what you got is threatened, just bully your way through it. seems to be the blackwater motto.

No surprise Blackwater contacts were found in Zacharius Moussaoui's address book.

The theme of PMC's is all over video games coming out, some believing the future of war is surpra national. I believe thats how terrorism, narco smuggling etc work. It's the elite who hold no particular allegience to countries, able to tap global intelligence and corporate and political channels to run underground networks(terror, death squads, drugs, arms smuggling, etc)

Fires are the easiest, biggest manmade disaster to create if the conditions are ripe and the winds are high. It's the scene of fire spreading, black smoke rising, and the media telling everyone to evacuate that can be used.

Now Im not saying this is what happened. However, it would be very easy to pay some hoodlums to start a few strategic fires with the right condiitons.

I normally wouldn't regard the simple act of photographing a fire station as suspicious, but here we have several and in each case, instead of sticking around and explaining themselves, they sped off like bank robbers. THAT is suspicious.

Notice no mention of the men looking Middle Eastern.

And WHY didn't they get license plate numbers, especially of the cars involved after the alert went out.

Notice no mention of the men looking Middle Eastern.

That's more suspicious than anything else..

Racial psy-ops.

Get a majority of whites in a similar situation to show what savages the blacks really are. What unmotivated, selfish slugs blacks are.
How inferior, disorganized, and scary they are when they come together.

"Just look at how supporting, community-caring, helpful, organized, and safe it is when whites are in the same situation."

Racial psy-ops.

The fire officials are saying the fires were started by people who knew what they were doing. Oh ya think?

Yesterday it was announced scientists have finally gotten a handle on how to direct hurricanes.
R&D on that was over twenty-five years ago. It gets squeaked out 25 years later that it is a "possible" new technology that "might" be possible.
This is all the same "people who knew what they were doing".

Luckily for our cattle herders they had fire technology R&D perfected millenia ago.
