My Manifesto: The Incoherent Ramblings of a Madman

It is always strange when they give out terror warnings in Australia. They say that there is going to be an attack on Australian assets in Indonesia - then instead there's an attack on our Iraqi embassy. The original reports will be saying that it has not been confirmed that the target was our embassy. The other reports will say that the terror warnings for Indonesia were wrong. Then three (3) weeks later we will come forward and admit that the bomb that blew up our embassy was infact aimed at our embassy. The intelligence community will get into trouble for not predicting it.

Ok:

1. We worked out there was going to be an attack on an Australian asset (tick);
2. There was an attack on an Australian asset (tick);
3. It was in the wrong predominantly right-wing fundamentalist terrorist muslim country (cross); and
4. It was still in a right-wing fundamentalist terrorist muslim country (tick).

Three (3) out of four (4) isn't all that bad for the intelligence community.

Ok:
1. There has been an attack that may or may not be an attack (cross);
2. After three (3) weeks of umming and ahhing it is decided that has been an attack (tick);
3. There has been an attack that may or may not be on an Australian asset (cross); and
4. After three (3) weeks of umming and ahhing it is decided that it was an attack on an Australian asset (tick).

Two (2) out of four (4) for the press. Houston I think we have a problem.
