ah those pesky spy planes;)


.

How much one of those cost the us country?

The also claimed they shot down two of them last month, promised to put them up on display, but never did.

send them a fucking bill

holy shit world war three is supposed to start tomorrow like it has been every week for the last decade.

Show the wreckage or STFU

Downed with little damage?

Cool mssile that does that!!

makes one wonder for sure

Who thinks there will be a war with Iran? Timetable?

This.. pics or it didn't happen as usual.

That's obviously a German spy plane...

Wonder how it would go down if the USA used a couple of those new bunker buster bombs on Iran's nuclear facilities and then ... denied it.

Obama goes on national TV and says: "Hey, it wasn't us."

He then adds: "But you what? We did notice that a few of those bombs have gone missing from our inventory. Hmmm..."

i think there have been strikes already on the nuclear facilities to be honest. but iran, israel and the US all benefit from having an external threat in order to keep their populations afraid to distract from internal issues. so it's in all their interests not to escalate this into an actual war yet.

Hope the data in it is encrypted

If I was Iran, I would be trying to hide this information.

Yay! More cut and paste without an opinion expressed! Awesome show! Great job!

Couple issues I have with this story...

1) How do you blow something out of the sky and leave it with minimal damage? Those things fly pretty high, particularly to avoid detection. The crash alone would cause some heavy damage. Then factor in the projectile that was shot at the drone to bring it down.

2) We do plenty of stupid things, but I can only imagine that a spy drone over what is now one of our biggest "enemies" would have a self-destruct feature.

It aint happenin! What happened in Libya, Syria, interceptors from the Czech republic are in Romania. ` All this shits a interlinked pentagon project from 2002. It's a full spectrum dominance against Russia! ` United States is shittin their pants over the Beijing/Iranian/Russian axis! `

I've always wondered what's to stop any country from dropping bombs and then denying it... "Opps, it wasn't us".

looks like maybe they hacked it down

What if Iran shoots down a US plane, fixes the damage, takes it and bombs Israel.

Within 30 days. The following is a prelude

ISOLATION

Tuesday's storming of the British embassy attracted swift condemnation from around the world, further isolating Iran.

Britain evacuated its diplomatic staff from Tehran and expelled Iranian diplomats from London in retaliation. Several other EU members like Germany, France and Spain also recalled their ambassadors from Tehran.

The United States and Israel have not ruled out military action against Iran's nuclear facilities if diplomacy fails to resolve a dispute over a programme they suspect is aimed at developing atomic weapons. Iran says it would respond to any strike by attacking Israel and U.S. interests in the Gulf.
