I’m sure this is not the whole story. Pretty sure it has self destruct mechanism at least for the data system. Anyone think Obama really makes the decision?? He’s just so dumb about everything.
Doesn’t suprise that 0zer0 wimped out on this. A F117 with a cluster bomb would have taken care of it. Now how many US troops will be put in harms way because our enemies have access to the technology. Just another 0zer0 3am phone call that he answered “present”.
My loathing for the Kenyan Muslim Halfrican usurper requires medication.
What is truly dumb is the notion that anyone would send a drone over hostile territory and then improvise a plan of action after it was lost. The decision to send it over Iran without a clearly thought out plan to follow in the event that it is lost is what would be idiotic.
Pretty sure of that are you?
The drone FAILED (unless you want to believe we wanted them to get a drone filled with ass-backwards information as a ploy) which would lead one to believe that whatever protection there was for the data system probably also failed.
We should have dropped a 500 pounder on it.
What gets me really upset is if this was Bush, NBC, ABC, CBS, MSNBC would be running a story a night about “new information on how President Bush failed to act to destroy a drone ... blah blah blah”
The Obama administration is a plague upon the land of freedom. It can’t be driven out soon enough.
Not surprised that Obama thinks protecting the US would be seen as an act of war. The Iranian regime has been at war with us since 1979, but he wants to make nice. I wish this were just disinformation, but with Obama I tend to think it’s true.
Was someone sleeping? Someone was watching this in real time. So I agree with you...It should have gone kaboom...then or later...
OMG , I needed at least a week to make that decision and they only gave me 5 minutes
I agree. Sort of like the international version of Fast and Furious.
Whoops. We don’t know how that technology got transferred to the Iranian and Russians...
There is no way to know the full story.
The only thing we can be sure of is that the press reports are inaccurate.

Our “man of action” voted present again.
Just wondering; What would President Ronald Reagan do?
Me too and I am drinking it as we speak
Bill Clinton let top secret missile and satellite technology be walked by Chinese spys and we know how that turned out.
