Security: After Iran admits building a second enrichment facility inside a mountain, the Pentagon shifts money from other programs to urgently fund the mother of all bunker-buster bombs. Why the need for speed?
At the G-20 Summit in Pittsburgh last month, President Obama announced, "The Islamic Republic of Iran has been building a covert uranium enrichment facility near Qom for several years."
U.S. officials said they knew for some time that the facility existed. The announcement was made after U.S. officials learned Iran had told the International Atomic Energy Agency of Qom's existence.
Our knowledge of the facility built in a mountainous area may explain why back in 2007 there was tucked inside an Iraq/Afghanistan emergency war funding request some $88 million to rush the development of a 30,000-pound bunker buster called the Massive Ordnance Penetrator (MOP).

I keep having this ludicrous fantasy that Obozo will suddenly become angry after someone insults his Narcissism and then attack Iran....doing what is right, even if for all the wrong reasons.
Guess, I need to get back on my meds...ha.
Absolutely we will!
Obama will go nuclear and bomb Iran with political rhetoric and perpetual speeches.
God help us all.
No, no, no we won’t.
We will keep saying they are 2-3 years from having one until one day they test one, and announce they have a few dozen moe stashed away, just like North Korea. Then, the adminstration will just decide there is nothng we can do about it and ignore it just NK. Unfortunately, unlike NK, the Iranians will likely use them.
Nope. Oboma will bomb Israel for Iran. He'll claim he did it for world Hope and Change.
I don’t think anyone in Iran is losing any sleep worrying Obama is going to bomb them.
Teleprompter or no teleprompter?
He wouldn’t be able to make a decision until well after his term has ended.
softy diplomacy or direct threat!?
If you’d like to be on or off, please FR mail me.

As the article correctly notes, this is 2007 news.
I'll take incoherent rambling for $500 Alex.
That would imply, of course, no teleprompter.
"This awesome weapon reeks of strategic deterrence," said Col. Bob Dulong, the 509th MXG commander. "America's enemies will know the destructive power of this weapon in our arsenal and they should modify their behavior, lest they learn of this weapon from firsthand experience."
The naive egomaniac is too busy trying to give Afghanistan to his islamic extremist terrorist taliban buddies to worry about it. Also, he is leaving Iraq, and as everyone knows a muzzie will not make war on a muzzie so the Iranians and President Imanutjob have nothing tho worry about from the kenyan.
its all in a script somewhere, and is being acted out in sequence...
May God continue to bless Israel.
Won’t happen.
