Gates Hints at More Secret Nuke Sites in Iran

Post by Col Hogan »

Does Bob Gates know about more secret Iranian nuclear sites? It certainly sounds like it.

Speaking alongside Secretary of State Hillary Clinton last night at a CNN/George Washington University forum, Gates addressed a wide variety of topics, the Secretary of Defense dropped what seemed to be a big hint that the United States knows much more about the Iranian nuclear program than the Iranians might think.
More nukes in Iran...just what everyone wants... :shake: :shake:

AMEN Brother. My thoughts exactly. You see where Saudi Arabia just gave Israel the green light to fly over their country to attack Iran. Why? Because they are a bunch of backstabbing pieces of shit.

Iran is going to get taken out by Israel with all the Sunni support, only to have them blame Israel for everything once the threat is over.

I agree, so effing what. Let them get their shit knocked around.

I, for one, believe that we are unnecessarily harassing the Iranians. They want electricity, let them build the power plants. Fvck.

If something threatening comes out of it, don't you think the US and Israel would know about it? They can take care of it then. Meanwhile, leave them alone and quit creating tension.

We should teach Iran about Democracy - like we did Iraq... (Remember how they greeted us as liberators)

Iranian lesson in democracy - because we’re experienced with it here in America
1) after a hundred years, you have to let your slaves go
2) after a hundred and fifty years, you have to let your women vote
3) And after 250 years you convert to Socialism

I am still lost when you say cashing a government check that was earned (are you saying all government employees = socialism) is the same as cashing a government check simply given to you for doing nothing but breathing (i.e. welfare, health care, corporate subsidies, etc) which I do equate to socialism...
