40. We don't even know for sure if ICE is the Federal agency
that is leasing the grounds.


It just says, U.S. lease of Waterloo fairgrounds raises questions, and "Federal officials have imposed a news blackout at the National Cattle Congress fairgrounds in Waterloo, where they have leased almost the entire property through May 25."

Federal officials. Then Tim Counts disavows any knowledge of anything. Why did they call Tim Counts with ICE? I read the whole article and nowhere is it established that Immigration & Customs is the leasing agency. They're just identified as 'U.S.' and 'Federal'.

I wouldn't be surprised if it's Homeland Security training for a domestic takeover, martial law, or whatever. I fear something big is going to happen, because these folks can't risk losing in November. They are going to force the attack on Iran. The 'false flag' event mentioned up thread is not an unlikely scenario.

The only faith I have in this current administration is for them to do the wrong thing. We can't even hope they'll act wisely and reasonably. I'm split between feeling excited and hopeful with a November Democratic win, or nervous and fearful in regards as to what actions these guys (bush/cheney) will pull before they leave. I think the whole world is holding their breath, waiting to see the end of Repuke rule in America.
