[911InsideJobbers] [Fwd: [political-research] Bloglines - Rumsfeld: Dead-Enders Defeating U.S. Via Blackberry]

Rummy is inching closer to identifying us as the only sort of
"terrorists" they are really interested in.
A big sneer to all you supporters of the Media Hoax cheering for NSA
brand disinfo disguised.

Rumsfeld: Dead-Enders Defeating U.S. Via Blackberry
<http://feeds.dailykos.com/dailykos/index?m=2768>

By SusanG on Lincoln Group

Donald Rumsfeld today announced we are woefully behind our "dead-ender"
counterparts in Iraq and Al Qaeda (you know, the guys living in caves)
in terms of being tech savvy.

All I can muster is ... huh?

I feel like a movie reel has been switched and I'm watching the second
half of a completely different movie than the one I walked into. Kinda
like starting out in the /Last of the Mohicans/ and ending up in /The
Matrix/.

Here's Rumsfeld today
<http://today.reuters.com/news/newsarticle.aspx?type=politicsNews&storyid=2006-02-17T192855Z_01_N17237817_RTRUKOC_0_US-SECURITY-RUMSFELD.xml>:

NEW YORK (Reuters) - The United States lags dangerously behind al
Qaeda and other enemies in getting out information in the digital
media age and must update its old-fashioned methods, Defense
Secretary Donald Rumsfeld said on Friday.
...
The Pentagon chief said today's weapons of war included e-mail,
Blackberries, instant messaging, digital cameras and Web logs, or
blogs.

"Our enemies have skillfully adapted to fighting wars in today's
media age, but ... our country has not adapted," Rumsfeld said.

So let me see if I have this straight. These same
<http://www.thenation.com/blogs/outrage?bid=13&pid=2237> "dead-enders,"
"remnants of defeated regimes," "small number of terrorists, a small
number of militias, coupled with some demonstrations and some
lawlessness," these are the same losers who now are suddenly relegated
to some category of Blackberry-wielding, VOIP-using, IM'ing wizzes,
operating in a country with a few hours of electricity per day? Is that
the scenario? Or am I missing an episode in a trilogy?

You know, every time Rumsfeld speaks, I feel a little stupider. Here we
are, arguably the most industrialized nation in the world, the home of
Silicon Valley and Bill Gates and NASA, and our defense secretary is
trying to sell us on the idea that we're getting our asses whupped by
people he'd previously designated as unaffiliated, dying-gasp,
disgruntled losers who are reluctant to enter the 21st century and
partake of the fruits of democracy and capitalism with us.

If I missed a transitional phase, forgive me. Still, I have some advice
for Mr. Rumsfeld. Check with your defense department's propaganda
sub-contractors, because something's seriously amiss here. You can start
with The Lincoln Group
<http://www.sciencedaily.com/upi/?feed=TopNews&article=UPI-1-20051218-07111200-bc-us-iraqstories.xml>,
which garnered a sweet $20 million for a two-month contract (that's $10
million a month for those too busy to do the math) that was supposed to
propagandize the Iraqis into handing over their hearts and minds to the
U.S. I'll await your email notification of the investigative result, Mr.
Rumsfeld.
