Texas Terror, Code Blue!
-- Will Dr. Ron Paul Operate? --

HOUSTON, June 29 -- When it comes to explaining our
deteriorating national and international condition, hand it to Dr. Ron Paul, the
libertarian Republican who represents several refinery towns just south of
Houston, Texas.
He proved his skill Thursday with his address to the House of
Representatives, five minutes of straight talk from a wise physician concerned
about politics and geopolitics:
- The economy is sluggish because it has gorged on inflated Iraq war money.
- The petroleum market is feverish because of Iran war speculation.
- The Iran war is likely because of the inaction of a craven
Congress.
This latest speech provides the of a two-minute speech, which Paul
delivered on January 11, 2007, at the beginning of the 110th Congress. In
it Paul warned that the Bush administration might stage an attack against the
US, then blame it on Iran:

Recent events bear out Paul's worries:
- The Jerusalem Post reported that the Iran war is a done deal.
- US ally Saudi Arabia began preparing for nuclear fallout from an Iran
war.
- The Israeli Air Force began practicing its Iran war plan of
attack.
- John McCain's campaign said he'll benefit from a US terror attack.
Second Opinions
Various intelligence experts agree that the Houston area is a likely target
for the much discussed "next 9/11" attack, which will solidify the homeland
state and the global war. The very nightmare that Paul has warned us about
may rise out of the ashes of his own turf. It's hard to see how he
can sleep at night.
During the Republican primaries of neighboring district 22, Navy
intelligence officer and Republican candidate Commander Brian Klock posted a
billboard showing Houston and its refineries nuked by terrorists:

It bore the unnerving caption: "The Threat Is Real -- Ask Brian Klock."
Over the last two months, former Navy intelligence officer Wayne Madsen has
published a series of investigative articles dealing with the suspicious gunning
down of CIA insider Roland Carnaby by the Houston Police Department.
Madsen also believes that a Houston area nuke is likely, but writes that the
Bush administration and its Israeli allies will carry it out, not
terrorists.
Over the last two months, The Police News, published in Paul's district,
has run four of my investigative articles about secret terror drills recently
conducted at the BP refinery in Texas City. The last was
A False Flag
Target Again? -- Ron Paul's Texas City http://www.lonestaricon.com/absolutenm/anmviewer.asp?a=2997&z=260.
Given his tour de force diagnosis of the worldwide situation, it's
stunning that Paul hasn't done anything to protect his home turf. His
district 14 is dense with Big Oil refineries that are labeled top terror targets
by the Bush administration. This is especially true of Texas City, which
worried residents have grimly nicknamed Toxic City.
The Iconoclast has spent all of May and June trying to reach Paul as the
one who should be most concerned with the lives and welfare of the citizens he
represents. For two solid months, though, his staff has have kept their
man incommunicado. Under the current circumstances, this is
unconscionable.
The situation is clearly critical when expert opinion considers your
district the most likely mass murder target in America. It's time
for Dr. Ron Paul to perform the operation so desperately needed both by his
constituency and his country: INVESTIGATION.
