MSNBC just reported that there is some reason to believe that this whole Libya affair was

[Skidmore]

a coordinated effort. No details yet but the reporter was quoting a source of information (can't remember the guys name). Anyway, I think that this does stink on many levels.

Romney talking out of his ass this morning would have had us in war by midmorning should he have been in the WH.

[liberal N proud]

1. Coordinated effort by who

What groups or people are the speculating could be coordinating?

[nadinbrzezinski]

18. Yesterday was 911

It's not just a date here...

Abroad, the bbc and other media have suggested the usual suspects.

The us is taking longer.

[seabeyond]

2. " I think that this does stink on many levels."

agree. and Netanyahu coming out with his statement and mofaz statement with him. (this was more of a tie in until we found out the producer may not be real)

[moondust]

3. You mean a dirty political trick?

Along the lines of Reagan/Republicans dealing with the Ayatollah to influence the 1980 election?

[Bernardo de La Paz]

13. If it is then there is death and blood on their hands. nt

[RagAss]

15. There always is.....what's new ?

[MFM008]

4. anniversary of 911?

there are enough people who hate America out there, Timing is funny isnt it.

[librechik]

5. did it happen ON 9/11? Anyone know?

can't pin down the attack exactly local time--if so, that is a compelling fact to add to the Al Q theory.

[nadinbrzezinski]

19. Yes

[librechik]

20. thx for the confirm-- thought so...n/t

[HooptieWagon]

6. The attack seems planned.

What protesting mob shows up with guns and RPGs? I think the actual attackers were al Qaeda or similar group. They either incited the mob as a diversion, or took advantage of it on short notice to carry out an already planned attack. Thus, there likely is two groups involved, possibly a third who coordinated the two?

7. The Obama administration should launch a thorough investigation into who is responsible

for this. And this time, when they catch them, they should start the prosecutions that are so long overdue.

Who is this guy who appears to not exist now? That is where the investigation should begin. Find out who he is first, then who he is connected to.

[MerryBlooms]

8. My guess is we already know-- we're sending in Marine special forces today.

[malaise]

9. Ditto

I smell neo-cons and their posse

[sabrina 1]

12. That would not surprise me. With the neocons being foiled on Iran, and considering their

past history on how far they are willing to go to get what they want, nothing would be a shock at this point. The timing, right before the election, is definitely suspicious. First thing we need to know is the identity of the instigator of all of this.

[HopeHoops]

10. Well, the timing was rather suspicious regardless of the motives and people behind it.

[bullwinkle428]

11. "September Surprise". Once stuff came out questioning the mere existence of this "Sam Bacile"

character, I knew it stunk to high heaven.

[kentuck]

14. Netanyahu wouldn't do something like this....

..would he?

But it is a possibility that a remnant of al Qaeda or allies of Khadafy or another leader in the Middle East might be behind such an attack? Syria might stand to gain if attention could be focused elsewhere besides their corrupt regime?

However, they may have miscalculated. If the President would dare to send troops into Pakistan to take out Bin Laden, he would not hesitate to go into Libya. My guess is that there are some very tight assholes in Libya right now. They will not sleep well tonight.

[just1voice]

16. True or not, MSNBC is propaganda, it's not a reliable source

They sell fear and emotional responses, not rational thought.

[cthulu2016]

17. Can you name a reliable source?

[anneboleyn]

21. unlike, say, Faux News? Faux News, now beating the war drums for IRAN out of this?

[Skidmore]

23. Actually the reporter did name his source and referred to the information from

a phone call with that individual. I just didn't track on the name.

As for "propaganda," I'm sure if you flip over to Fox that you will find the "news" you are looking for.

[spanone]

24. i don't think they've gone down the fox hell hole.

[spanone]

22. msnbc....
