EXCLUSIVE FROM SSAF: Saddam Hussein - "You hit Baghdad; We Hit Las Vegas"
SSAF contact in the Middle East ^ | 9-20-02 | Doug from Upland

Posted on 09/20/2002 6:58:19 AM PDT by doug from upland

I have just learned this morning from a member of the SSAF team in the Middle East, that if we strike Baghdad, Saddam Hussein is threatening to strike Las Vegas.

The story is out of Egypt and our contact is working on a translation which I hope to have later today. I'll be away on business all day but hope to post it tonight.

How about this: We nuke Baghdad. If you nuke Vegas, we will then nuke Mecca, Medina, Beirut, Tehran, Riyadh, and Damascus.

Oh, and Paris too, just for fun.

What makes you think they were not going to hit Las Vegas anyway? All the more reason not to delay.

At this point, all it would take is a threat like that to come from a real, attributable source in Iraq's gov't, and the President would turn that entire nation to glass. I'm not saying anything about your sources, just that if it were from one of those lying POS Iraqi's the press would believe it.

"Oh, and Paris too, just for fun. "

That's right, when you break out the nukes, don't forget the French.

Better yet, Mecca. Makes sense - Mecca: Islam's holiest sight, Las Vegas: America's holiest sight.


CAUSE AND EFFECT

Remember, LV was a target around the 4th of July, too. That's where the ME man intercepted the threat on his cell phone. Seems the ME has a thing about LV....but wasn't that where Mohammad Atta met with some of his cohorts?

What's he going to hit us with? He has no weapons.
