Oh, I don't know. A few AC-130's, in the middle of the night, unloading everything they have. I could certainly see mistaking them for something else...

Like the wrath of God Himself!

Yeah, that's hilarious. There's no way to disguise an AC-130 gunship. It's not exactly a stealth airplane. It's more like the opposite of stealth. It's designed to be highly visible with awesome firepower to scare the daylights out of the enemy.

You might mistake them for God's wrath if you were on the receiving end of them.

The clue is the solid line of tracers going to the target.

AC-130's are pretty distinctive, I'd think the author should know one if he's seen it...

Especially if it's pounding away at rebels enclaves..

You gotta love the AC130, but there is another weapon about to be used ... a new secret weapon. Not much has be said about this weapon, but it is a non-destructive weapon that renders Islamic terrorists inoperable and mosques unusable. The weapons program has been a carefully gaurded secret, based in a remote corner of Kirtland Air Force Base in New Mexico.

Sandia National Laboratories and Boeing have spearheaded in what is being called a first in weapons programs. What is amazing is the amount of time spend on the program. The development started in May, 2003 and has moved from drawing boards, to prototype, to deployment in Iraq.

Based on the KC-135 Stratotanker, the new weapon, has the designation of PF-135. Military sources have refused to publicly acknowledge the development of the PF-135. Sources close to the weapons program have stated that development was able to proceed at a "blistering" pace due to the relative few modifications to the KC-135.

Sandia Labs, in conjuction with an unnamed and secret Los Alamos project, have been able to quickly adapt the world's smallest and most stable nuclear reactor as a power plant. While development efforts existed in the 1950's for nuclear powered aircraft, this project bears no relation. According to unnamed sources, the nuclear power plant is not used to power the aircraft, but to be an internal heat source.

There is much speculation over exactly how the new weapon system will work. One project scientist, with an PhD in Astro Physics from Cal Tech, and a PhD in Theology from Liberty University, has stated that the weapon will completely render any Muslim terrorist or Muslim place of worship inoperable. Information obtained from deep background, which only today has allowed be released in this exclusive report, may reveal just how this weapon fuctions. The new aircraft designation, PF, stands for "Pig Fat". It is speculated that the aircraft's power plant literally renders pig fat, which in turn when dumped from the aircraft will make any Muslim or Muslim places of worship inoperative.
