10. Off the shelf intel ops by the out of power repug party.
They did it to Kennedy, Johnson, Carter, Clinton, now Obama.
The Mumbai attackers used a ship called the MV Alpha, as transport from Pakistan to Bombay-Mumbai. It was jointly owned by the CIA and Pakistani ISI. That kicked off the foreign policy flare ups our current Dem administration have had to deal with. 2 hostile nuclear armed nations, where all of the sudden one has some extremists who cross the border to commit an act of war on the other's soil. Timed a few weeks after the Dems got elected. That's the repugs signalling that even when they lose, they can make trouble for the elected Dem leadership in foreign policy.
I watched that blatant bircher blowhard Alex Jones try to pin Mumbai on the Mossad, though the attackers hit some Jewish targets.

24. Interesting use of right-wing talking points to attempt to derail this thread.
Interesting dismissal of any suggestion that we follow the money and find out who put together the video.

The Cold War’s Arab Spring
Stolen Kremlin records show how the Soviets, including Gorbachev, created many of today’s Middle East conflicts.
TABLET, June 20, 2012
The dominant narrative of modern Middle East history emphasizes the depredations visited upon the region by European colonization and accepts as a truism that the former colonial powers prioritized the protection of their material interests—in oil, above all—above the dignity and self-determination of the region’s inhabitants. Thus did botched decolonization result in endless instability. The most intractable of the regional conflicts to which this gave rise, that between the Arabs and Israelis, is attributed in this narrative to Israel’s unwillingness to accede to Palestinian national aspirations. Thus did the region become a breeding ground for radicalism, intensified by Cold War rivalry between the superpowers, who replaced the European colonizers as the region’s meddling overlords. Then came Mikhail Gorbachev—a Westernizing reformer. At last, the Cold War was over. A new world order was at hand.
