This is how I see it. Both Colin, and Joe are both very respected individules in the intelligents community. As I have read this thread most everyone seems to have one comonality. They belive what ever "Doom" occurs has to be from an external force. Back to the two men, again both with many years in or around the intelligents community. The way I see it to be so precise to a degree they would have had acsess to intelligents, as we all know they do not have the ability to see in the future. So with all that stated! I believe somthing that our government plans or knows about ie. Space well occur at the direction of our "current" president! "Bush" such as an attack toward a bother country such as Iran. It has had to be preplanned. As knowledge seems to show based on statements that have been given. I belive its an attempt to prepare us or at least the "tuned in". Or maybe our government knew way, way in advance the situation with Isreal. We all know they have been patiently waiting to start conflict over their. They know the "new" administration is aditmaley against " conflict as "we" have been told.Also I read on GLP at one time in the recent past that Obama's first or second interview he seemed "very nervouse, preoccupied" with great information. Or maybe it may pretain to him not being a citizen and they know, but are waiting for our govenment to try and figure it out in public. Or a combination of all.
