The United States of America will cease to exist on February 5th, 2006

Back in June 2005 I realized that in order to turn the United States into a full-fledged police state, one more major "terrorist attack" would be needed. But it would have to be even more spectacular than the U.S. Government-engineered "9/11." That means one thing: a nuclear bomb being detonated in America by "terrorists." Here is what I predicted in June 2005:

Sometime before the 2008 presidential election, and possibly much, much sooner, the United States Government will detonate a small nuclear bomb in an American city, killing 10,000 to 100,000 civilians.

The U.S. government will blame Al Qaeda or Iran, “postpone” upcoming elections, make Bush the president indefinitely (i.e. “President for Life”), suspend the Constitution, impose martial law, and the fearful American public will go along with it all.

The U.S. government will control the “investigation” of the nuclear explosion. It will control the media even more so than it does now (by suspending the Constitution), so nobody will be in a position to challenge its findings. And swooning patriotism over the desire to “get even,” combined with a renewed draft will solve the military’s problem of obtaining enough recruits.

Detroit is an ideal city to “nuke” because it’s an economically blighted city, it’s got a large Arab population that the government can accuse of being Al Qaeda aiders and sympathizers, the bomb will wipe out all those Arabs, and it will give the government an excuse to bail out the beleaguered American auto industry just like it did the airline industry after 9/11.

The government can plant several other nuclear bombs in other cities, such as San Francisco and Miami. Then after the Detroit bomb is detonated, the government can “find” these other unexploded bombs and claim that they believe there are others still lurking out there. Seeing one bomb go off, finding two others, and believing that there are still more would so terrify the public that they and congress would happily go along with suspending the Constitution and declaring martial law.

Public “analysis” (i.e. spoon feeding government lies to the media) of these additional unexploded bombs can provide weeks of infotainment while giving the government a means to taint other countries as it sees fit. For instance, the government can claim that these bombs are “crude” and thus probably the work of amateurs, such as terrorists, but bearing hallmark traits that suggest Pakistani assistance, which would sound credible. The U.S. government has already announced that it would attack Iran in the event of another major terrorist attack, regardless of Iran’s culpability, so the bomb would create the excuse for such an attack. Of course, all the government’s analysis will be completely fabricated, but people and the press will be so scared that they will accept without question whatever the government claims.

Fast forward to today. First, I read about military nuclear terrorism exercises in Charleston, South Carolina scheduled to begin today and end February 2nd. Curious timing. There were five military exercises on 9/11 having to do with hijacked airplanes flying into buildings! That’s a pretty stunning coincidence. Then just today I learned that the Super Bowl is taking place on February 5th in ... Detroit! Detroit is the city I picked to be attacked with a nuclear weapon! Detonating a nuclear bomb in a crowded stadium would kill 70,000 people (within my stated range) while minimizing damage to the physical city.

Considering the almost certainly faked "warning" from Osama bin Laden a couple of weeks ago, that the Super Bowl would be an excellent symbolic target for would be "Islamic terrorists," that Detroit was my pick for a nuclear attack, and that in March Iran is supposedly going to launch an Oil Bourse that will trade oil for euros instead of dollars, which would likely destroy the dollar and the U.S. empire, I’m extremely worried (six margaritas worth) about the coming week, to say the least.

For months the U.S. has been ratcheting up the rhetoric against Iran, following the same playbook it used with Iraq, and clearly angling for another war. Just the other day the U.S. succeeded in getting Iran referred to the U.N. Security Council, just like Iraq. Next stop: war. Bush’s poll numbers are in a slump and his administration is in disarray, just like before 9/11. The Republican party’s image is eroding rapidly, congressional elections are approaching, and there are signs the Republicans will fare very badly in the elections. The Patriot Act is losing its momentum. And now, after over a year of silence, Osama bin Laden suddenly issues a dire "warning"? What convenient timing for Bush. Next we’ll see the major "terrorist" attack I posited, which will be attributed to Osama. Then we’ll see an attack on Iran in retaliation. The Bush administration has already stated that it will attack Iran in the event of a major terrorist attack in the U.S., regardless of Iran’s culpability. And if the "terrorist" attack in the U.S. is a nuclear one, then using tactical nuclear "bunker buster" missiles in Iran will be more justifiable, at least in
