Strange things happened two weeks after a B-52 bomber loaded with six nuclear warheads was flown from Minot to Barksdale Air Force Base.
Six people from Minot Airforce base who were directly involved as loaders or as pilots, dying within days of a world-record nuclear screw-up is decidedly newsworthy, and suspicious.
"The missiles were moved, without any doubts, intentionally; OR The missiles were never moved and the press coverage is based on propaganda to scare Iran; OR the missiles were moved and the press coverage is based on propaganda to scare Iran."
Read more about this.
Still, with a madman like George W. Bush as Commander-in-Chief, anything can happen.
TimesOnline: "The United States Air Force has set up a highly confidential strategic planning group tasked with 'fighting the next war' as tensions rise with Iran.
Project Checkmate, a successor to the group that planned the 1991 Gulf War's air campaign, was quietly reestablished at the Pentagon in June.
Detailed contingency planning for a possible attack on Iran has been carried out for more than two years by Centcom (US central command), according to defence sources.
The US president faces strong opposition to military action, however, within his own joint chiefs of staff. 'None of them think it is a good idea, but they will do it if they are told to,' said a senior defence source."
Bush is perfectly capable of bypassing Congress and the joint chiefs of staff. It would be a catastrophe, of course. But then everything Bush does is a catastrophe. If Bush decides to start a new war with Iran, even a one-off strike, there is a chance the military will revolt (hopefully arrest him) or resign.
