The Y Files

I suppose they weren't going to put up with a third day of falling oil prices.

The NYT failed to give credit to the person that discovered and disclosed the doctoring, Charles Johnson.

I suspect the 4th digital created missile is actually a secret weapon to destroy virtual tanks.

What do I think? What's the fuss? Nations and armies have been doing this for thousands of years. This one was just a poor amateur job of it.

The Art of War is based on deception-Sun Tzu.

Maybe they should change professions, like build instead of destroy. They seem to lack a certain complexity at this.

Of course a enemy to bind the population make for easier control of the masses in the name of national security.

We learned from our nation TV station this news. After contrast, it indeed has many similar places as follow.

this may be nature coincidences. or only a game by some students.

That wouldn't surprise me; the whole Iraqi nuclear weapons thing was a farce. We just needed a reason to go in there and stop Suddam from exporting his oil. We NEEDs a reason to go into Iran and blow their asses away BEFORE Chaney and HIS administration leave the White House. Oh boy oh boy oh boy.....crimey. Oh, oh, let's not forget N. Korea, let's get them too.....and oh, yeah, Venezula, don't forget about them................uh, who else? We probably have a couple National Guard guys hanging around that haven't had their lives ruined yet......maybe.

Missed the news report the other day about more than 500 tons of yellow cake uranium recently shipped from Saddam's nuclear center to Canada, did ya??? Google "Iraq yellow cake Canada"

Didn't miss it. Figured it was some more disinformation. Actually, I am sorry I responded to this whole thing the way I did, what with NSA monitoring everything. I expect a knock at my door at any............what.................

A cynic from Hell. You deserve what you get.

what an idiot. I was in the National Guard and am proud of this. Have not had my life ruined, but have helped save yours.

I would like to be the first here to honestly say thank you for your service, sir!

It's good to question. However, Muhammad Al-Baradei, the UN Director for IAEA, who is not a fan of the US, has admitted that Iran not only has the will, but the capability to produce a nuclear weapon in no less than 6 to 12 months.

First, that is his minimum estimate of the time it takes to get into the "Nuclear Club". However, that isn't years, that's months.

Here is the interview with Muhammad Al-Baradei, which is suspiciously absent from the mainstream press. This same interview is available from many, many other sources.

A nuclear Iran would be a very destabilizing agent in the Mid East, let alone with the terrorist underground.

Hoax? Good question, but if some fanatic pulled out a pistol and pointed it at your head (or your family), would you call his bluff?

Muhammad Al-Baradei, the UN Director for IAEA, who is not a fan of the US,

Tell me who at the UN is a fan of the US.

Zalmay Khalilzad. That's one in a row, eh?

one in a row, so what would you call two in a row.........a streak

"unprotected people handling vials of dangerous materials"

That is one part of an Iranian nuclear program that wouldn't surprise me as being totally true.

For those that are interested, here is what appears to be the un-doctored photo of the famous "Four Missile-teers".

This picture is from The Lede. The original picture was obtained by Agence France-Presse from the Web site of Sepah News (the media arm of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard). That picture was removed and the Associated Press said it got the picture above from the same website.

My guess is that the little nichrome wire fell out of the Estes model rocket engine and it failed to ignite.

This brings up a challenge to those with too much time on their hands, take some model rockets and model trucks, and build a scene that looks real with the rockets launching. Get good at it and sell the video to third world country's, maybe a RC jet air force too !

"Reality Imitating fiction"

Wasn't there a movie a few years back starring I think it was Dustin Hoffman where the US political leaders hired him as a special effects producer to create a factious war to distract the internal problems.

Maybe Hollywood should think about what kind of movies they produce? instead of giving ideas to these kinds of people.

Another instance with how they got the idea from "Black-hawk Down" plans.

I think it was "Wag the Dog" but I didn't see the whole film.

What do I think? I think they may have had 3 missiles that worked. One of my biggest complaints EVER is the sale of our military technology (or any major power's) to nations that haven't developed their own. Who in their right mind would sell a gun to someone who might use it against them? Other than the local pawn shop owner, of course, but I'm talking about BIG weapons like missiles, helicopters, fighter jets, etc. All too often we've seen these sales made to noncommittal nations who, three years later, express undying hatred for us. And this makes sense because...???

EnviroMan,

That was my initial take, as well. I don't care that they doctored the photo or that they use photoshop more poorly than American high school students.

I am more concerned that they can successfully launch 75% of their intended payload into the air. It doesn't have to travel very far to cause World War III in that region.

With the U.S.'s close ties to Israel and Israel's recent aggressive defense, just one of those missiles could start a turn of events that would by cataclysmic.

Cool, now I can have a nuclear test in my backyard.

There is more going on then just a missile test. Check out these two links.
