Islamic militants haven't tried anything in Panama yet. Maybe they're not informed enough?

I mean as in the term of "fall guys"

A bunch of ragheads the Chinese rounded up and shot thru the head
before dumping them in the river downstream of the now destroyed locks....

There you have your Islamic terrorists!

If they actually go to the lengths to blow up or seize the panama Canal, it's
World Fucking War III, Alyeska. Destroying the Canal has military and strategic benefits..

Besides the Canal destruction could be blamed on "terrorism",
especially after several islamic dudes end up dead several miles downriver....

That would be a rather nice method of Economic warfare.

Or.....having the canal workers STRIKE....mHWHWHWH
Shit, the Canal is important, but Pearl Harbor has enough ships to clobber China and economically CRIPPLE them.

How? Half the fucking population lives in the countryside the same way
their anecestors did. To them, electic lights is a miracle.

Fourth Generation Warfare, Alyseka....rather than trying to strike where the US
is strongest, such as conventional forces, strike where she is weakest, by
using terrorism, as well as special ops disguised as islamic terrorism (aforementioned fall guys)

China relies HEAVILY on merchant shipping for their oil supplies and much of their economy. The other bit is in the air. Two USN CVBGs can clobber the PLA(N) and then blockade the coast of China.

No one using the canal = no profit for the PLAN. At this point, the PLAN is just as interested in making money as any other business. Sabotaging one of their own profit-making assets would be senseless.

Means != motive.

Exactly WHY Fidel hasn't kicked us out of Gitmo (Even though he was in all rights to do so as per international law) since the last year of Bush Senior's Presidency. The fact that we are now using it for a massive camp for housing the prisoners of our war on Terrorism. It makes Castro lots of money that he is no longer recieving from the deep pockets of the great soviet empire.

I would've thought the PLA would've seen the Canal as something of a cash cow to fund Chinese military spending . . . rather than something to destroy or hold up . . . well, except for the occasional thing to keep the US on it's toes.

So China's gonna get at the US by shooting itself in the foot with a 120mm cannon?

The loss of the Cannal hurts us way more than it hurts China

Did some quick reasurch and found that shipping company's would have to pay roughy six times as much(USA Today numbers and a quick web-search for Sea Companys) if the Panama Cannal was closed and they had to go around South America instead

Considering the amount of Products moved through there per day by the US and Co and the relative state our Economy is it, It would be roughly equivlant to Gas Prices shooting up to 3.20$ a Gallon to give you a Comparsion(3.20$ US)

Black Helicopters. These black helicopters are small enough to fit in human blood vessels, those "chem trails" you see in the sky...yes those things that are created from the turbulence of jets are really swarms of black helicopters......flying down to infect your blood!!! :shock: :twisted:

I was once shown a website on these things.....and they had a picture. It was a black Apache Gunship....damn aliens they just simply aren't original anymore. Well maybe they are because I'm sure they are the first to consider a helicopter design for use in a liquid enviroment. LOL

How about the one that Roswell and Area 51 are nothing more but false information leaked to the public in order to take public snooping off of real conspiracies... IE alien invasion of hollywood? (Been a lot of flashy, quick moving movies lately, and we all know how flashing lights are nothing more but elctromagnetic brain washing photons... :shock: )

Conspiracay nuts can come up with anything. There are people who say the WTC attacks were an excuse to attack Afghanistan, the hijackers are still alive, and if there were hijackers they were Jews, or at least that's what they think in the Middle East.

As ofr the aliens, it owuld be even funnier if they said they couldn't get a clear picture because the UFO had jamming systems that blurred the shots.

You're not sure this conspiracy theory has anything to do with a book I once read about called Hollywood vs. The Aliens???

Xalev,
What is that Majestic game mentioned there?? I've never heard of it.

BTW, is it just me or have some people crossed the line between "paranoid" and "insane"???

BTW#2, who in Cthulhu's name are the Liberati?
