I don't believe anything until Debka, Newsmax, WND, and Drudge confirm it.
Anyway, to take out a carrier, the Jihadis need a nuke. And if they had a nuke, they'd be far more likely to (attempt to) detonate it in a U.S. city than in the middle of a carrier battle group.
Yes! Debka is claiming three divisions of Chinese soldiers have just crossed the Afghan border in support of the operation! </sarcasm>
