JUST WHO ARE WE FIGHTING ???

The Stupid Propaganda of Umar Fizzlepants Just Dropped a Couple More IQ Points

Ok. This is just getting silly now.
Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab leapt out of the ranks of anonymity on Christmas eve with a sparkling display of pyrotechnic undies. As it just so happened, his “diaper of doom” show gave all kinds of political cover for the White House authorized attempted assassination of a U.S. citizen, Anwar al-Awlaki. They had missed al-Awlaki but they did succeed in killing 23 children in their bombing of a targeted location.
All sorts of issues rose out of that ordeal; the killing 23 children by a Peace Prize recipient, the targeted assassination attempt of a U.S. citizen, why were we involved in Yemen in the first place.
All sorts of issues were rearing their ugly heads and the Obama White House was about to get in some serious discussions about dead kids and the constitution and all that jazz … when… they just happened to be all answered when Umar Fizzlepants lit up his “Depends of Death” undergarment on flight 253 to Detroit. What timing.
Well, again, Umar’s timing couldn’t be better; or worse, depending on your point of view. It would appear he is talking again and for some reason the White House is telling everyone about it giving a nice little “heads up” for the evil doers in Yemen.  Now what could possibly be the upside of that?

The White House was recently getting all kinds of heat from the right for the way they handled Umar’s arrest and subsequent indictments. Apparently they felt Umar should be waterboarded and renditioned to some black hole someplace where a deviant contractor could stick various implements up his ass till he confessed to shooting JFK. But the Obama administration and every one of their apologist websites reveled in the fact that they got all this “actionable intelligence” without torture. Of course, all that is based on the say-so of the FBI and the CIA and I trust what they say about as much as I trust Dick Cheney with a shotgun.
The other day the White House made a big show of reporting that Umar Fizzlepants was talking up a storm again giving us all kinds of information about all kinds of “evil” bad people.

Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, the 23-year-old Nigerian who faces terrorism charges in the Christmas bombing, has been cooperating with the FBI for about a week, providing information about his contacts in Yemen and the al Qaeda affiliate that operates there.  CBS News

How nice. That puts all those arguments about how the Obama administration is handling this to rest, now doesn’t it? So what’s the problem you ask?

Lets just say if this is true (which it isn’t) what does the White House’s announcement do to the ongoing battle against al Qaeda in Yemen (which also isn’t true)? Well, it just lets all those targets in Yemen know that they have been compramised and that they now have to move, change their names, change their hang-outs where they “plot and plan”.  That’s what it does. When you have a valuable informant who is giving up valuable info on whatever criminal enterprize you happen to be targeting, the very last thing you want to do is to announce publicly that the informant has given them up along with their locations. The certain result of that would be that the targets scatter, go back undercover, and the “intel” you got from Umar Fizzlepants would be pretty much, useless.
That’s pretty obvious, right? Well some congressman thinks so.

In a letter to the president Thursday, Bond, the ranking Republican on the Senate Intelligence Committee, said that he was “deeply disturbed” by revelations in a Tuesday briefing that announced Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, the flight 253 suspect, was co-operating with investigators and offering useful information.
“This information immediately hit the air waves globally and, no doubt, reached the ears of our enemies abroad,” Bond said, warning that the disclosure “has no doubt been helpful to his terrorist cohorts around the world.”  Raw Story

But I guess the White House figured that since they created the Umar Fizzlepants Show they were entitled to use him however they saw fit but I think they went to the well once too often with this one.
What they exposed is the fact that they don’t care about “tipping off” al Qaeda because al Qaeda in Yemen just simply doesn’t exist. There is no “intel” that Umar Fizzlepants is sharing with us; the CIA simply targets insurgent leaders of the rebellion in the north of Yemen and then adds their names to the “al Qaeda” list that Umar supposedly gave them. Then bingo-dingo, they can kill whomever is causing trouble for our puppet dictator on the tax-payers dime and everything is peachy.
You will never see this guy in court again (they are already talking about a deal to keep it from going to trial), you will never see the interview tapes (they will be burned just like the KSM torture/confession tapes), and you will never see a clear photo of him in custody. Why? Because the man they arrested, the man who was helped to get on that plane, was not Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab.  They just used that story because it was convenient and because it allowed them to tie a guy getting on a plane in Nigeria to Yemen, that’s all. Why else would they blur out his face in that famous shot of him being led off the plane?
Look, they created this guy to use for political gain right from the start and they have been glomming onto the Fizzlepants story to bleed it for every ounce of propaganda they could get from it.
Well, they went just a little too far this time. They reached right into Umar Fizzles pants and pulled out a bright shinny sparkling turd. Let’s see how the administration’s spin doctors are going to weasel themselves out of this one. They are on record for giving “al Qaeda in Yemen” a big heads up and a head-start as they run for cover. Now all the mythical “terrorists” in Yemen know Umar is talking so they had better run away. Let’s see how the Peace Prize winning Obama deals with that little tidbit of news.
Of course, that assumes that the MSM will pick up on this. Which they won’t.
