Come on, HD. I never pegged you as the conspiracy theorist type.

Or do you only put on your tin foil hat when someone's saying something bad about Obama?

News agencies use stock photography ALL THE TIME. It's very, very, very common. Surely you know this. I *HOPE* you know this. I've never considered you to be either dumb or ignorant, but if you're going to stick with this CT nonsense, I might have to re-evaluate.

This is so stupid. Those bombers haven't carried nukes since the 80s.

Without identifying them as such?

If the Iranians mislead with photoshop why can't posters mislead also?

For good reason. And I have not theorized a conspiracy here either.

Real news agencies label them so you know that.

I'd be interested to know why we scrambled AFTER they circumnavigated Guam. If an attack was under way, that's a little late.

Old Army Soldier you really had to push the limit to start a thread didn't you, time to go back to your air raid shelter!

You will have to contact Bill Gertz at the Washington Free Beacon for your answers. He seems to be a guy that has national security contacts. He is the guy who exposed Bill Clinton selling our missile technology to China.



Bill Gertz:
Bill Gertz - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

During the administration of Bill Clinton Gertz was known for his stories exposing government secrets.

He has also written for National Review, The Weekly Standard and Air Force Magazine. He has lectured on defense, national security, and media issues at the Defense Department’s National Security Leadership Program, Johns Hopkins University School of Advanced International Studies, the FBI National Academy, the National Defense University, and the CIA.[3] He has been a media fellow at the Hoover Institution on War, Revolution and Peace at Stanford University.[4

During 1996 Gertz reported in the Washington Times on Chinese sales of nuclear technology to Pakistan.[7] In 1997 he reported on Russian aid to Iran's nuclear weapon program, based on information given him by the Israeli intelligence agency Mossad.[8] In 1998 he reported on United States sale of missile technology to China.[9] In 2004, Gertz claimed that Syria, possibly with the aid of Russian troops, transferred Iraqi weapons of mass destruction stockpiles to its own military installations.[10]

You think McCain would start a nuclear war if he could as that's what war with Russia would entail.

I'm curious to hear your logical thought processes as to how you came to this conclusion.

My comment, which somehow you apparently failed to actually read, was in reference to the astounding apathy displayed by NJ about this. Doesn't matter if it did or didn't take place - he/she was commenting with the clear assumption that it did, so I replied to THAT PERSON following and commenting on THEIR position.

Next time you want to put words in my mouth, consider it a bit more carefully. I don't let people get away with that crap, and I WILL call you on it.

Maybe next time preface your comments with words like "if" or otherwise choose better wording rather than blaming us for reading what you actually wrote instead of what you were thinking while writing it.
