Thread bump!
You made some points that I might have missed initially. Lets see. Maybe you are right.
Leary is dead. No, no, no, no....he's outside looking in.
He’s stuck on stupid.
well, I get it...
hmmm....
7 days in May scenario?
Maybe they sent in a swarm of robot flies to go down into the tunnels and take pictures.
The Chinese and Koreans are probably reading this as I type it, so we might be phishing, hearing there are tunnels and after the release, listening.
hmmmm......perhaps you’re on to something there.
Right now it's a blogger story claiming to quote a general picked up by AFP. It's memorial day, so it's quite possible this story dies today. If it carries over tomorrow, however, it'll be interesting to see how the administration mishandles it, while the Pentagon snorts and stoutly denies the quotes in this context.
Hopefully no one gets stupid and says ‘Oh, this never ever happened.’ Oh, right, the White House is always stuck on stupid, which means they'll be the ones saying it tomorrow morning.
AKA treason
Either that or the objective is to send the NorKs out on a chinese fire drill, trying to locate agents for the round-eyed devils.
But then, Democrats have always been hazardous to HUMINT assets' health. (Maddy Halfbright losing a computer or two comes to mind.)
LOL! Yep. Maybe they'll get to observe the North Koreans as they go and check all the tunnels and facilities or double the guards...and see where what is and mebbe find some new ones...
Yabbut, if someone watches where they chase...
This would make much more sense than sending men in. It also might make sense to see the reaction to this information. As someone points out...see where they place their assets and what they want to protect from prying eyes....
UPDATE
US military denies parachuting into N.Korea
http://news.yahoo.com/us-commandos-parachuted-n-korea-report-212356834.html
The US military Tuesday vehemently denied a media report that special forces had been parachuted into North Korea on intelligence-gathering missions, saying a source had been misquoted.
Current affairs magazine The Diplomat quoted Brigadier General Neil Tolley, commander of special forces in South Korea, as saying soldiers from the US and South Korea had been dropped across the border for “special reconnaissance” missions.
But Colonel Jonathan Withington, public affairs officer for US Forces Korea, said some reporting of the conference had taken Tolley “completely out of context”.
“Quotes have been made up and attributed to him,” he said, denying that any US or South Korean forces had parachuted into the North.
Thx for the clarification.
And there is the perfect example of an officer getting quoted right, and a reporter adding in the unsaid words. The PIO did not specifically get quoted saying that we've never parachuted into North Korea, but instead attacked the supposed quotes. Great handling of the situation.
Now watch as the White House steps into the landmine field and opens their mouths rather than referring any questions to the PIO in South Korea.
Parachutists? They use airplanes, right? low, slow airplanes? Even Porky could spot a C-130 with his 3-D gogles on. But if the story gets porky and his pigs looking all over hell for rolled up chutes that’s fine with me.
Along with Iran, NK is probably the most fully satellite-monitored piece of real estate in the world today. If they are digging major new tunnels and underground airbases we already know where they are. But it is always useful to trigger an alarm in the enemy camp and see what he does.
Yea, he zotted real good!
