Hi Ralph, nice try, but realllllly you need to re-examine the facts.

1. We're already at war with Islamic Extremists. We have no soldiers left to fight another war, so, for example, even if the government "discovers" that it was totally duped and used by Iran, we're can't take military action until we clean up Al-Qaeda and get Iraq stabilized.

2. In the case of Cuba, we weren't at war, yet they were secretly installing nuclear missiles pointed at us. So it makes perverse sense to create the reason to overthrow Castro to avoid a Nuclear attack which would have killed millions. Fortunately things worked themselves out.

3. Some of the pictures/surveillance that was captured on the PCs was just a few months old. So even if the "plans" were dated back 2 years, the attempts to carry them out were current.

4. If the government were gonna make this up, the obvious target would have been the Republican Convention. In fact, I think it still is. What better way to influence an election then to eliminate a whole bunch of the party you don't want to win ?
