A U.S. drone was shot down while flying over a nuclear facility in Iran, according to reports in the Iranian media. Iran's Fars news agency reported that lawmaker Ali Aqazadeh Dafsari, a member of the parliament's National Security and Foreign Policy Commission, had confirmed the unmanned spy plane was flying near the Fordo nuclear enrichment plant in Qom province when it was brought down by Revolutionary Guard soldiers. It did not say when the alleged incident happened. Dafsari told Fars that the drone was trying to gather information about the nuclear facility for the CIA. Fars also said Iranian military officials had claimed to have shot down "several enemy drones" in January. "We have experienced similar incidents many times in the past and there have even been drones belonging to the occupying Zionist regime (Israel), the United States and Britain which have been shot down in the Persian Gulf during the past 7 years," Fars quoted a senior military official as saying at the time. Other Iranian media reported the same story, including Hamsayeh.net.

Probe?
And they didn't parade them in front of the media cameras? BS.
If they don’t show pics, don’t believe, and even then be very skeptical............
They can send over drones meant to be attacked, to test the limits of Iranian AA systems. That’s one scenario.
BS? From Ahmadirtynutjob?..........I’m shocked.
MSNBC is pleased.
They could do that with a kite................
I wouldn’t be surprised if Israel has sent some drones over there.
Can we get (.)bama to fly one on board?
Russian drone painted in US colors
When the Soviets shot down our U-2 in 1960, they proudly produced the wreckage.
The story is not about more lies from Tehran, but the willingness of MSNBC to believe them.
Surfed past that sinkhole of a cable channel and saw Rachel Madcow in full roar. That heeshee is demonic crazed.
It’s how she makes her money.
The more outlandish remarks the more $$ she makes.
It’s a living.
She probably doesn’t believe even half the crap she spouts.
Just keep the schtick going and the money coming...............
And in other news, tractor sales are up.
I just heard the chocolate ration went up to 25 grams per week.

Grain Harvest Smashes Record!
More likely the Mullahs mistook a Western Spy-Squirrel
for a Drone. Ha.
