It is heart-warming when an Official Agency reports what everybody knows already.

Does anyone know if Southern Command’s communications go through these cables? Either way Iran is the obvious suspect.

Everybody already knows that Bush had explosive charges secreted upon the cables at the time of deployment so as to further the cause of the global Cabal (who is responsible for solar system wide global warming amongst other nefarious schemes too numerous to list).

The question is? Did the order to cut the cable come from one of the missions at the U.N.?
