"How could such a map show secret facilities?"

Do the name Sandy Burgler Berger ring da bell?

BTW ... any truth to the rumor that our twidgets have a devise for remotely releasing "enemy" aircraft fuel pods?

If not let's start one. ;)

Just having a little fun with the SMs*. Their track record with things technological is dismal. They actually believe that putting facilities a gazillion miles from nowhere deep inside mountains and spending years in construction makes them invulnerable.

Plus they believe that having one nuclear device ... or 50, gives them deterrence. Totally clueless.
Did you know that Allah gave them not only a force field, but a cloak of invisibility?

Chipping Ongar?

I recall a Chipping Sodbury near Bristol, when I was living there. Oh, to be in England!

Isnt it just a BIT suspicious that the explosion was right near a Nuke plant. It may have not been an international attack, but if it wasn't I highly doubt it was an accident. Maybe Iran had something planned and now has a second opinion on what they did. Hence the all the sudden, "Fuel Tank" story.

No way Iran would ever attack Israel unless they could be absolutely sure their attack would completely destroy Israel, because if it did not.....Israel does not mess around.

According to Sky News, now the Russians are saying there was no attack on the nuke plant (it is theirs, after all).

Weve seen what fuel can do to a fire (9\11), it does the same with an explosion

Seems to me there are two possibilities:

1) There was no attack and they are saying there was, for reasons known only to them at this point,

-- or --

2) There was such a huge explosion or explosions that they can't plausibly deny it and as such are minimizing it and saying it was outside the city in the desert.

Either way, about all we can know is that whatever the truth is, what we're hearing from Iranian State TV is not it.

Odd, the Russians know more about what goes on in Iran than the Iranians do.

Whew. For a while there, I thought it might be a 'wag the camel' scenario...

Heres a 3rd possibility. Too much attention went to Syira after the Iranians planned the bombing in Beirut, so they saw things werent going their way and distracted everyone.
(This of course, infers that the Iranians were behind Beirut)

I also don't think a fuel tank would cause a 'powerful explosion' that could be heard from miles away. Fireball maybe, powerful explosion no.
