Iran 'working on secret tunnel'
Bwaaahaaaahaaaaa. I guess it's not "secret" any more.
You have to wonder how they can write this shit with a straight face.


Report: Tehran has been building secret tunnel since October to continue uranium enrichment, despite a nuclear freeze deal.

Iran has been building a secret tunnel since October to continue uranium enrichment, despite a deal two weeks ago to freeze the program, Germany's "Der Spiegel" reported in an issue to be published Monday.

The weekly, citing a secret service file, said that Iranian supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei had personally ordered the facility built last month near the uranium enrichment site in Isfahan that is under UN observation.

The tunnel, which "Der Spiegel" said is out of the view of spy satellites, is intended to house a production site for large amounts of uranium UF6 gas which can be enriched in gas centrifuges - a key step in the building of a nuclear bomb.

1. They're going to tunnel to the earth's core
And release a plentiful supply of geothermic energy to power all their weapons. Puh-lease!

5. No, they're digging to the City of Mole Men
where they'll recruit an army. The Iranian Mole Men Brigade will be able to appear from underground anywhere, and drag their enemies to their death.

3. Let them. Bush's narrow-minded bellowing bullying and his idiot supporters
have condemned us all.

Just sit back, have fun, and be content when the day comes. That's all we can do.

4. Hey, keep using the successful plays until the defense develops
It worked in Iraq, Iran is spelled almost the same, and no one has any better idea of what is going on inside Iran than they did Iraq.

6. "The weekly, citing a secret service file..."
Note to world at large...in case you haven't been paying attention in the last oh...three f*cking years or so...the world's cumulative "intelligence" is a friggin' mockery of the word.
If you allow yourselves to get railroaded by unvalidated single-source bullsh*t again you'll deserve whatever fate befalls you.
And those of us who have paid attention will be happy to beat some sense into you. We have kids too, you know.
You assholes...

12. Eh, it's from Der Speigel, they often have stories about "secret" stuff.
Maariv just picked it up. Bashing Iran is a popular thing.

10. Reminds me of the elaborate tunnel systems in the Afghan caves
I remember seeing artist's renditions of them that would have done a Bond villain proud.. They did NOT exist..except in the imagination of some pentagon geek..

Watch for this type of thing to continue.. Gotta ramp up the "Get-Iran-Fever"..:puke:

16. No tin foil required for this article
This tread needs to be moved to the propaganda section. Not LBN.

24. I refer to the post where it states that Israel's leadership is no one's
Edited on Sun Nov-28-04 04:39 PM by 4MoronicYears
friend.... I found this warning letter written by one of their own, if it is authentic, it is incredibly revealing, and I see no reason to consider this letter of warning a fake. This is a most excellent document... something that even a staunch republican relative listened to with silent attention and unabashed amazement.

A Jewish Defector Warns America
By Benjamin H. Freedman
>>HERE IN THE UNITED STATES, the Zionists and their co-religionists have complete control of our government. For many reasons, too many and too complex to go into here at this time, the Zionists and their co-religionists rule these United States as though they were the absolute monarchs of this country. Now you may say that is a very broad statement, but let me show you what happened while we were all asleep.

What happened? World War I broke out in the summer of 1914. There are few people here my age who remember that. Now that war was waged on one side by Great Britain, France, and Russia; and on the other side by Germany, Austria-Hungary, and Turkey.<<
