Exploring October Surprise possibilities that could factor into the US election.I suspect Aleppo will stay as it is, for now. Yesterday we talked Turkey Coup, Part Two? That's One October Surprise Option!A coup, if successful, could be spun into a win for democracy, freedom and the American way.. Mosul would be a feather in Obama's war making cap and a boost for Hillary.A first glance at a Mosul victory being an October Surprise: Could a Mosul Victory be an "October Surprise"
“The term “October surprise” refers to a political event that has a last-minute effect on November elections and that is what some are calling the Mosul operation”
To my way of thinking Mosul doesn’t qualify as an October Surprise, in the sense of coming out of the blue. Taken by surprise. Shocking. Startling. Etc., However, since the masses are oblivious to the fact that NATO and assorted sundry militias have been continuously attacking Mosul, advancing towards the city centre for months now it's entirely possible the eradicating of ISIS from Mosul, Iraq may come as an October surprise to many.Mosul’s taking would be a boost to Hillary... A few of the latest tidbits regarding Mosul, Iraq:1-Pentagon Deploying Still More Troops to Iraq
The Pentagon is to send as many as 600 more troops to Iraq as Iraqi security forces (ISF), Kurdish Peshmerga, and US personnel continue to shape an operation to re-take Mosul from Islamic State fighters that captured the city in 2014, defence officials confirmed on 28 September.The total authorised US military personnel for Iraq is now around 5,250 troops, but hundreds more are understood to be operating there on a 'rotational' basis through temporary duty assignments. The number has been steadily increasing since US forces returned to Iraq in August 2014.
Roughly 6,000 American troops in Iraq2- UN is Working to “Pre- position Aid” around Mosul prior to Military Operations
"We are concerned at the possible humanitarian ramifications of the fight. And that is why we are working with our Iraqi counterparts and trying to pre-position as much humanitarian aid as possible," Dujarric stated.
This prepositioning of aid isn't going all that well, as you will read. 3- 700,000 will need aid once Mosul offensive begins: UN4-UN Prepares for Mass Displacement of Iraqis as Battle Looms to Retake Mosul
Preparations to assist potentially hundreds of thousands of displaced Iraqis are hampered by a lack of funds. While the operation is expected to cost $196 million, Geddo says the UNHCR has received only $63 million, or 33 percent of what it needs.
In plain talk the UN's humanitarian assistance is not in place and it will not be in place. We're talking mass displacement of nearly 1 million people.- If the UN can accomodate 150,000 or so it will be a miracle. But don't worry the media will be preparing all sorts of feel good spin for the true believers everywhere.5- Putting pressure on the Barzani government
“If fighting starts in Mosul, hundreds of thousands could flee the city as they did in 2014. Refugee agencies estimate 700,000 could be heading towards neighboring Erbil and Duhok in the autonomous region of Kurdistan.The UN’s refugee agency (UNHCR) is working with the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) to prepare, but they have raised less than 40% of what is needed to prepare the necessary infrastructure for refugee camps; reportedly, authorities were seeking €253 million. That means there will not be enough tents in place”
Given low oil prices, the KRG is stretched financially. Nonetheless, there is apparently political will to welcome hundreds of thousands of refugees from Mosul, many of whom will be Kurdish.
We've talked weaponized refugees previously here
There will also be security considerations. Amidst the hundreds of thousands of refugees, KRG authorities fear there may be ISIL members. That means refugees cannot be channeled directly into cities before they are screened and checked for weapons.
And then there is Mosul Dam? The Americans said flat out stated it was not a matter of if it would collapse, it was only a matter of when it would collapse. The words of US Officials! Could the Mosul Dam be hit, accidentally on purpose, to clear Mosul without all the fuss and muss of dropping bombs etc.? Maybe just some of the fuss and muss. It's possible.Mosul Dam collapsing would make a real nice October Surprise... An act of God. Not!People displaced, not because of American war making, no, just a random circumstance. That the US warned and warned and warned about.... all for naught. Obama and Hillary can go and hand out food and feign concern.. So can Angelina Jolie, if she's not too busy, with whatever twisted garbage she is up to with her cronies in the CFR. Lindsey Lohan can visit all the displaced persons too. (Yes, she been in the news doing that lately)Lindsey Lohan should be kept away from childrenI’ve written on a number of occasions about the possibility that a weaponized Mosul Dam collapse could be employed against the populace- I'm using the word weaponized, in this manner: convert/employ to use as a weapon rather then as ordinarily used. A collapsing dam certainly be considered a weapon of massive destruction!Related:

You want possibilities for an October surprise? A second coup in Turkey. The taking of Mosul.I don't see Aleppo being a situation that can be manipulated, at this time, to the benefit of team America If you have any scenarios that could present themselves to skew the outcome of the American election, manipulating the voters, feel free to share some thoughts.From Earlier Today:
