Conspiracy Theory
I put on my shiny tinfoil hat and interpret this story:
BAGHDAD, Iraq — U.S. troops raided the Palestinian Authority’s mission in Baghdad and arrested 11 people after ransacking the building, a Palestinian official said Thursday. A top U.S. general said eight people were arrested.
The US story is that the PA mission had “unauthorized weapons.” The PA spokesman says that all the embassies have weapons on hand to defend against looters, that the Americans shot out the locks on doors that were already unlocked and took food, water and documents.
Why? At a guess, Rumsfeld and the senior staff of the Defense Department would really like to stop this annoying “Road Map” business the State Department and White House are pushing, and even, if possible, derail Dubya’s planned meeting with Palestinian Authority PM Abu Mazen next week.
