15 April 2007. Vice-President Dick Cheney tells NBC's Tim Russert on Meet the Press that the greatest threat now to America is “a 9/11 occurring with a group of terrorists armed not with airline tickets and box cutters, but with a nuclear weapon in the middle of one of our own cities.” (11)
16 April 2006. Writing in the Washington Post, former Ambassador to the United Nations, Richard Holbrooke, alleges that the now-six retired generals who demanded Rumsfeld’s resignation were speaking for many of their colleagues. Holbrooke reminds his readers that Gen. Newbold said he spoke out with “the encouragement of some still in positions of military leadership.” (12)
1 June 2007. A longstanding Texan friend is alleged to have called on George Bush recently and confided to his Washington hosts that Mr. Bush had said three times, bringing a clenched fist to his chest, "I'm the president." Reminding visiting political opponents of this might be normal, but the close friend said he was a taken aback a bit as he had never before seen Mr. Bush in this mode.
Capital Hill Blue editorialized that “what these close friends see is a madman on the edge, a delusional paranoid whose brain is fried by too many years of hard drinking and probably too much cocaine up his nose.” (13)
[Note: As background to the last allegations, see the following:
17 Nov. 2005. Internet journalist Tom Flocco reports that Secret Service members attached to White House domestic security, FBI agents, CIA agents, and written national security field reports say that President Bush has been using drugs which could be affecting his performance as the nation’s war-time commander-in-chief.
Multiple federal agents having direct knowledge and access to Bush’s medical records say the President has switched from using Ritalin to taking Prozac while also succumbing to periodic alcoholic binges which have led to tirades and explosive personal conduct among White House aides….
Federal law enforcement agents have at different times witnessed President Bush doing lines of cocaine in the early morning hours at the White House and drinking straight shots of whiskey in the evening hours. (14)
3 June 2007. Dennis Milligan, Chairman of the Arkansas Republican Party, is quoted as commenting: "I believe fully the president is doing the right thing, and I think all we need is some attacks on American soil like we had on [Sept. 11, 2001]." (15)
1 July 2007. ABC News reports that "a secret U.S. law enforcement report, prepared for the Department of Homeland Security, warns that al Qaeda is planning a terror ‘spectacular’ this summer." (16)
10 July 2007. Webster Tarpley reports that Homeland Security Director Michael Chertoff said on July 10 that the U.S. faces a danger of attack in the summer of 2007 and that his warning is based on a “gut feeling.” (17)
16 July 2007. The Manchester Guardian reports that the Cheney war party had again gained the upper hand in the secret councils of the Bush White House, pushing aside the purported hesitations of Condaleeza Rice, Secretary Gates, and the NATO allies to chart a direct course towards war with Iran. (18)
16 July 2007. The same article reports that, “a few days ago, a group of lawyers from western Massachusetts met with local congressman, Democrat John Olver. Their request was that Olver take part in the urgent effort to impeach Bush and Cheney. Olver responded by saying that he had no intention of doing anything to support impeachment. He went further, offering the information that the United States would soon attack Iran, and that these hostilities would be followed by the imposition of a martial law regime here.” (19)
16 July 2007. Paul Craig Roberts, former Assistant Secretary of the Treasury, quotes right-wing writer and radio show host William Norman Grigg saying recently that the GOP is "praying for a terrorist strike" to save the party from electoral wipeout in 2008. (20)
17 July 2007. The Bush administration releases an unclassified summary of its National Intelligence Estimate, which claims the US is facing a “heightened threat environment” for terrorist attacks because Al Qaeda has found a safe haven in Pakistan’s tribal areas, from where it can plot such attacks. The Bush administration seizes upon the report, ominously entitled The Terrorist Threat to the Homeland, as a pretext for possible military intervention in Pakistan and a justification for its war policy in Iraq as well as further domestic surveillance measures at home. (21)
19 July 2007. Paul Craig Roberts warns: “This is a wake-up call that we are about to experience another 9/11-WMD experience.” (22)
