Let me get this straight. You do not think the navy should be doing this? After the whole thing with the english navy getting their servicemen kidnapped?? So answer me. Do you think the navy should not practice these scenarios?

If Seymour Hersh is involved then its definitely credible. Muckraker extraordinaire.

There is no practice scenario, they wanted to build Iranian looking PT boats, put the Navy Seals on board and light up a US warship in the straights. Not for practice, but to have "Video Evidence" of an Iranian attack and start the war.

Michael, you don't have to defend yourself. I know better than anybody that Seymour Hersh is one of the best out there. Its obvious that the others need to do the research themselves to find out.

The military is supposed to practice every possible war situation and scenario that may exist in the future. So i would expect them to definitely enact scenarios involving the Iranian military. Is that somehow strange to you? Chenney would certainly be briefed on what the military was training on and or considering training on. This is another trumped up thing weighed against Chenney lie so many others.

There is nothing this criminal administration could ever do that you couldn't excuse away with one of your "fairy tale", veracity defying , English language torturing & "are you gonna believe me or your lying eyes?" rants.:whistling:

Oh it's Hersh? My bad. I clicked on Michael's link, saw Alex Jones's logo, and immediately closed it again.

Its my pleasure. I think Hersh's reputation speaks for itself.

When training of this type occurs, the military isn't in the practice of building to scale another nation's hardware. That's ridiculous, even for us.

I too would be specious of this if this exact same scenario hadn't played out earlier this year with the American destroyers and Iranian speedboats.

Video of Iran ‘attack’ on three US warships released by Pentagon - Times Online

Note: I love how the article calls the 'attacking' crafts GUNSHIPS, when they are clearly commercial speedboats.
