Of course that war is coming. Of course, the United States will get dragged in, likely before Election Day.

Why do you think it will likely happen before (S)election day? (I'm saying you're wrong, but just interested in your reasoning.)

Because the terrorist attack is presumably timed so as when the disruption will have maximum impact.

I see more bombs going off in Beirut today. Neocons are rejoicing.

I doubt that the U.S. government is innocent. At least members of U.S./British intelligence would have known what the Israelis were up to. And I have read unverified reports that 2weeks ago doctors, nurses, and other hospital staff at the American Hospital of Beirut were ordered to surrender their pagers for replacement pagers which seems all too plausible.

U.S. and British intelligence does not know what it does not want "to know."

On the other hand, it probably knows what your next door neighbor wrote in his latest e-mail, what you ordered recently online and what size it is, and where you work.

"The US is denying any foreknowledge of the attack, but that’s what they always do. We’re always asked to believe that the US never knew anything about attacks conducted by nations like Israel and Ukraine until they read about it in the news, and that their massive intelligence cartel and sprawling surveillance networks never pick up any information and exist for no reason."
