‘Colbert Report’: Genitalia Bomb Threat

colbertnation.com

Thank goodness “The Colbert Report” is back on the air, and just in time to comment on the attempted airplane attack in Detroit on Christmas Day, which was nearly, er, pulled off by a new kind of dirty bomb. This, plus the prospect of full-body scanning in airports, leads Stephen Colbert to point out that terrorists may not stop at wiring explosives near their junk. You’ll want the full effect of HDTV for this one. —KA

If you do the non-mainstream research on this you will
know that the underwear bomber did not have a passport
and was lead onto the plane by a CIA agent. It was a
false flag terror attack. He was lead past the security
and didn’t have to be inspected.
This setup was used as a pretext to get the body
scanners installed everywhere. This is what our
government does. They put on a giant play and then
state a solution that takes away more and more freedom.
