Hi Lam - here's my thoughts from over here.
WMD's found in Iraq.
Surely nobody would believe this now - not even the most gullible Bush supporter (and as far as I can tell they are
really gullible) ?
Osama bin Laden captured.
Several of my friends (including one who is an American living over here) have been speculating this since the early part of this year. We've wondered if he was actually captured a while ago and is being kept on ice for the election.
A spectacular terrorist attack on US soil!
Too risky to be orchestrated by the Neo Cons IMO - there's no way of telling which way it would make the electorate jump. Al Queda on the other hand might try it just to prove they can.
Voting is suspended due to terrorist threat.
Followed by suspension of the two term limit and a string civil liberties/constitutional rights maybe ?
US pulls out of Iraq in October, leaving the UN in charge.
Can't see it being organised in time - and more importantly I can't see the UN being dumb enough to agree. Thinking about it only the US has the troop numbers needed anyway - and events on the ground suggest you didn't send enough, especially to begin with.
Confused ? You will be...
