What sarcasm tag?

[MississippyMuddy]

Iran's nuke plant = Israeli bomb fodder :)

You can order a copy of the movie for free and get daily terror threat assesments on nuclear, bio and chem threats. This is comuing from Senator Sam Nunn and its goal is to educate the american people of the threat we may have to face one day if we do not act.

[Windcatcher]

I was trying in a sarcastic way to say that I had (and have) no idea what that pic was supposed to mean. I was referring to this:

I'll check out the link. Maybe that will shed some light.

[MississippyMuddy]

Yes fixing too get it now, and copy it, with the sites permission, and give it out, thanks for the site.

[MississippyMuddy]

What the hell are you talking about?

[eastforker]

The movie doesn't come out until 20 may per my email from senator Nunn, they are trying to get it on TV but no sponsor yet. You should read some of the security and terror updates I have received from them.

[MississippyMuddy]

No one even posted that site, go away troll.

[MississippyMuddy]

From what I have read already, we are in deep shiite.

[Windcatcher]

(sigh) Forget it (and I'm not trying to troll). I'll shut up now and watch the special since no one wants to explain.

I think Windcatcher was making a joke. He thought your picture of 3 pieces of toast looked a lot like 3 naval signal flags for the letter "y." Hence the "YYY"

[Paul_Denton]

One action that we can take is one that no one has considered: A nuclear first strike. Not against cities, but against military bases only. Not only would it utterly devastate Iran's military infrastructure it would show them first hand the terror of being on the receiving end of a nuke.

[Windcatcher]

Thank you. So they are pieces of toast. I had no idea what they were, and I resent being accused a troll. I just wanted to know what the post meant (and I even searched the Navy site to see if Yankee Yankee Yankee had some sort of special meaning). I also checked out lastbestchance.org to see if the pic was referring to something there. I guess sarcasm is lost on some, and perhaps I shoudld have included a /sarcasm tag.

That pic on my screen looks like three pieces of stone that someone decided to cut some lines in. I've never seen toast come out looking like that.

[ConservativeLawyer]

You're welcome. I believe that toast was prepared on a grill. I've made some that looks like that while on a campout with my boys.

[GVnana]

Why not combine two strategies: strategic strikes and a naval blockade? The first would at least set their strike capability back, the second might foster enough discontent that the mullahs would have to back down.

God help us.

[FreeKeys]

You may be right, but Israel didn't need nukes to take out Iraq's facilities. They're making better and better bunker busters these days, I hear.

[FreeKeys]

That pic on my screen looks like three pieces of stone that someone decided to cut some lines in.

It looks like 3 pieces of really tasty toast on mine. You really might want to check out services such as this.

[Windcatcher]

Wow, that's a pretty neat site. I'll give their software a try.

I still say it doesn't jump out at me as toast. Now, if the pieces were on a plate (with a pat of butter nearby) that would make it a bit more obvious (and make me more hungry) :^)

[Orca]

Don't forget who we have to thank for this, one of the worst presidents in US history: Democrat, Jimmy Carter. He saw to the downfall of the Shah and the rise to power of the current terrorist regime.
