Just checked Drudge. Still nothing about Iran on his site. He thinks CBS news internal squabbles are more important.

MSNBC reporting Iran reporting incident MAY have been caused by a fuel tank dropping out of an Iranian plane.

In theory it's possible that the Saudis might attack Iran, but it's hard to imagine they would since they couldn't really follow it up with much and would need us to bail them out. That'd be like the Saudis deciding to start a war between the U.S. and Iran. That wouldn't go over well.

So if this is true, wouldn't the Iranians launch something back at Israel?

Yes they would, which would lead to a full scale Israeli counter offensive. Iran ain't that stupid.

Earlier Wednesday, Foreign Minister Silvan Shalom said during a visit to London, that Iran was six months years away from having the knowledge to build a nuclear bomb.

Well, they are now.

Europe.

But which dog?


Sky News latest is that witnesses report a plane overhead, with the Iranians unable to confirm AA went off around the plant.

Has the explosion itself has been verified by non-terrorist sources?
