Default What sense does the 'terrorist' attack in china make

Folks,

This talk of a terrorist attack on china's border is getting more stupid by the day:
http://www.independent.ie/world-news/as ... 47408.html

Right here are the facts.
1. the plan is to ram a truck into a group of jogging soldiers (hhmmm, can jogging soldiers not get out of the way of a truck, how on earth could they have timed such an attack!)
2. Then they throw grenades into the barracks. (would it not have been wiser to forget the truck and just throw your grenades over the wall)
3. Then they attack an army barracks with knives. (if the attack was so well implemented why not turn around and leave, run)
4. It turns out they had guns aswell. Then why did they not use them instead using knives, against soliders in an army barracks.

Are any of the facts above incorrect? I am finding it hard to believe.

and the end of the result of the attack is more security in Beijing. This is a time worn pattern by the CCP, frame public opinion for a justified crack down to, of course, protect the public against the dark forces.

I hesitated posting this, but with the news they had guns but chose to use knives is beyond credibility.

An attack, like the staged attack on 9/11, would take the focus off China's human rights abuses, would grant unconditional support for it fight against 'terror' and would include it among the many nations that have suffered such 'staged' attacks.

Oh please, please, please, make my day by explaining to me HOW 9/11 was staged, why it was staged, and your evidence for it.

It´s sad that you take any opportunity to attack the U.S.



In any case I read that story in the Irish Times yesterday, I´m also finding the facts a bit strange.
