Terror's Trivial When It's Not Muslims And It's Not Here

Madrid Airport bombing receives scant attention by Paul Joseph Watson
Prison Planet January 4, 2007
"How many people . . . know that Madrid Airport was bombed on Saturday [12/30/06]? Relatively few I would venture, and that's because major western governments . . . don't hype terror unless Muslims are behind it.

"There have been just 2,929 terror induced deaths since 9/11 according to the Bush administration's own numbers and more people every year die in swimming pool accidents - hardly the mega threat to western society that many have portrayed."
here is the complete text.

Put in this context, I think it becomes obvious--we have all been enthralled by Bush's shell game.
Like the shell game practiced in the Old West, this one is played for profit. In this case Halliburton, et al are getting the money, Bush gets the power. The suckers who keep playing, hoping to recoup their losses, lose their savings or, in this case, the rights the soldiers who went before us fought and died to secure and defend.
Pogo was right: 'We have met the enemy and he is us.'

I knew about the Madrid airport, but, as you said, it got virtually no play in the MSM. The only thing I would add to your excellent expose is to increase the beneficiary list to include the Carlye Group, Unocal, and a few more.
