Please Say That Again Mister Burgess

PLEASE SAY THAT AGAIN MR. BURGESS (JUST A LITTLE BIT LOUDER) Lieutenant General Ronald Burgess (Director of the US Defense Intelligence Agency) sat there in front of the Senate Armed Services Committee on Thursday & asserted to the world that “Iran is unlikely to initiate or intentionally provoke a conflict”… um, could we hear that again Mr. Burgess for all the distracted viewers at home? (just in case ya left the room ta get some milk n’ cookies or somethin’)--- “IRAN IS UNLIKELY TO INITIATE OR INTENTIONALLY PROVOKE A CONFLICT” and after he said this, he was asked about the Israeli government’s intentions regarding the continuous threats of annihilating the nuclear facilities (ooh let’s hope they aim right…wouldn’t want to massacre any civilians now), he responded by saying that to the best of his knowledge, the Israeli government has not yet decided as to whether they will attack Iran. and so, if little brother decides to attack Iran without the initial support of big brother, remember this, o’ citizens of the empire, for an attempt will most certainly be made to rile up & round up your own psyche to get behind the madness, even though the men who wear the uniform every day come right out on international television & tell us that this great big boogeyman that is being strangled by the world around it with endless sanctions in order to squeeze it dry of its oil, is not planning to strike back on its own without being attacked first.
