I saw it on the anthrax and DC sniper threads, too. (even indulged in a little bit of it me-self).

I might as well post tourist guy in the middle of the action..he has been everywhere else..heheh
If Iran made and supplied the rocket, then trained Hiz how to use it..they are just as guilty as having fired it themselves imo. It matters little as a previous poster said.
In the morning we will still have a war in the mid east
that will probably continue to escalate,with or without confirmation of an Iranians actual finger on the trigger that fired this particular Haifa missile.
It will probably remian forever thee missile that no one claimed to have fired.
Although I don't think it matters if Iranians actually pushed the button to fire those missiles. UBL didn't fly the planes, but he gave the orders. The same principle applies to Iran.
What happens if the hostages show up on Iranian TV or Al-Jazeera?
I hate to say this, but sometimes war is exactly what is needed to stop this crap. If we can just open a full scale can of whoop ass on these idiots this thing can be over. This may just be our ticket to dealing with Iran AND Syria. Then there's North Korea, but hopefully they'll get the message loud and clear.
Nice find...er what were we talking about?
That is just garbage. It was reported on:
Israeli Radio News
Sean Hannity
CNN
FOX News (and not just a news ticker; it was discussed on air, not once, but twice)
You can think it's incorrect, but at least get your facts straight regarding where people heard it and saw it.
LOL That would have been perfect.
By that point you'll have posters so wedded to believing the false rumor that they'll be posting black helicopter, government conspiracy theories for why the "Iranian Missile Attack" never made it to a news web site.
THANK YOU!
I've told people for a long time that the biggest reason we went into Iraq was because of the NEXT war with Iran and Syria.
You may be right – and that is the strategy, but I want to debate this.
Because it is far from clear to me, why it would be a good thing to be in Iraq, if there is a strategy to move on Iran. For being in Iraq leaves us vulnerable, not strong. And whatever is the point of replacing Sadaam Hussein in order to take on the Iranians? He would have been a prime ally in such a war.
NonValueAdded points out:
Saddam playing no-fly-zone tricks, etc. He was step one.
Iraq was very weakened and miserable because of the sanctions. Sadaam would probably have accepted any deal to lift sanctions in return for support of any offensive on his eastern border. For he hated them – no one hated Iran more than him.
In the long gone days when Sadaam ruled Iraq there were no militias on the streets, no ‘no go’ areas, no Iranians in Baghdad bringing funding for private armies (I am thinking of SCIRI, which is part of the Iraqi government.)
The Shia areas of Iraq have been quiet. This is not because they really support the occupation – the day will come for the confrontation, and they are planning long and carefully for that moment. The British head of forces in Basra recently admitted that the city is out of control, and that arms are flowing in constantly. The people with these weapons are not doing anything – yet. They are accumulating and accumulating them. And accumulating their grievances, too.
In April an Ayatollah Husseini in Karbala spoke out in a sermon about Farsi speaking “pilgrims” in the city – who looked to him like Iranian army officers on leave (or maybe not on leave). He was shot the next day and the last I heard he was half-dead in a coma.
It would be a big mistake to underestimate what the Iranian army can do, especially acting through local proxies. The Israelis were often astonished by the determination and expertise of the Hezbollah. In Iraq, they would be more formidable. They have tens of thousands to recruit from, huge areas to operate in, and US forces in Iraq are very thin, compared to the intensive Israeli presence in Lebanon.
Iraq has no real government. Iraq is a swamp. Our ‘forces for democracy’ allies in Iraq are laughing at us. There is not a democratically inclined person in the whole country. They are getting a lot of money, and when things get difficult they will go back into exile. Before doing anything, taking up any foreign policy initiative, we need to settle the Iraq issue, which means somehow getting it a stable government.
2 new strikes in Gaza, per Fox/S Smith
Bridge, and militant camp in Gaza just bombed...FoxNews
I called the WH comment line this morning and told them Bush can't have it both ways. Israel has the right to defend herself and to use restraint(can't remember the exact word he used). That we need to stop trying to keep Israel on a leash. Back off and let her do what needs to be done to protect her citizens.
