Stinks to high heaven if you ask me How.... in the name of God... do you manage to lose nuclear warheads!!!!


Was that Burbleson AFB?


Maybe the next false flag won't be a false flag. It'll be a nuke "accident" that kills thousands and "forces" Bush to declare martial law...did I forget to take my anti-paranoia pills today...hmmmm...


Six warheads? Is it a coincidence that this number, six, is also the number of targets that "al-quaeda" cited for destruction of evil America. Six cities on each coast, . . . eliminating them would also eliminate the major Democratic opposition. Oh my, those Islamic terrorists are so stupid that they would kill the major source of opposition to Bush -- big cities filled with tourists, illegal immigrants, and Democrats. Remember 9-11 would NOT have happened if the US Air Force had been doing its job that day. Do we really need the world's most expensive air farce? Hey, just askin'.


This could only happen in Clinton's America.

Oh, wait ...

"mistake" - yeah right. no nuke is mishandled in a million years (except of course japan - whoops). do you realize how difficult the movement of a nuclear weapon is - at no time did anyone not realize exactly what was going on.

this was precisely to send a message to iran that nukes are being made mobile. and that the b-52's you see in your skies, also carry nuclear warheads on their wings ready for deployment.

let's follow this case and find the names and addresses of all those "reprimanded" or "removed from security clearance" etc. (hand making jack-off motion). no one will be punished because it is all a military plan. psy-ops. this is about iran. this about the threat of america using nukes so iran doesn't try to develop them ("irony, party of 12, your table is now ready").


No source info is given in any of the news stories I have reviewed, but the cause of this leak could be

A) whistle-blowers freaked out because the stark-raving mad lunatics in the Administration are actually making moves to pre-position and use nuclear weapons,

B) unintentional leaks of a major screw-up (unlikely - as this kind of major screw up doesn't get disclosed until months later buried in an official report), or

C) an intentional planned leak to send a message to Iran (also less likely as we already have carrier groups and nuclear subs that can strike Iran, and they know that these guys are as crazy as they are made out to be.)

I believe that possibility A is the most likely, as many reasonable and sane military men and women have taken an oath to defend our country against all enemies both foreign and domestic. The Bush Administration is insane and opposed to the Bill of Rights, the Constitution and true Democracy. They have shown themselves ready to sacrifice millions of human lives.

Upright and righteous Americans must oppose war criminals and psychopathic mass murderers in all ways possible.


"Yes, we somehow lost track of six nuclear warheads, and then they accidentally fell off the plane over Iran. We can't figure out what happened!"


mistake?

The only mistake is if you believe that it was a mistake.

.


Come on guys, how is this even a story? I'm assuming most of the comments are sarcastic -- but how is this a big deal? Some bombs (albeit big bombs) were left in place for too long and a plane took off with them still on board....who cares.


Am I the only one that finds this a bit odd?

"The Air Force announced that all flights of fighters and bombers in the United States will be halted on September 14 to allow for a review of procedures."

Sure seems that such inform,ation should be classified, unles of course they...


Mistake or preparation?

The Navy Times story includes this bit:

http://www.navytimes.com/news/20...ar_B52_070904w/

"Air Combat Command will have a command-wide mission stand down Sept. 14 to review their procedures in response to this oversight, he said."

I'm not hip to the game--could anyone enlighten me on what a command-wide mission stand down means...and if it means what I think it means, then how does that play into the other news coming out in the last several days and weeks with regard to Iran:

http://www.newyorker.com/online/...? printable=true

and with warnings like this:

and the FBI relocation outside the fallout / blast zone in D.C.;

Stand down abort abort no escort i repeat no escort you are to land in barksdale for mechanical problems.


this is called a practice run for another 911 false flag inside job, to set the path for another illegal Un-Constitutional war provocation against Iran and to declare martial law here in the good ol USA.

stack up on ammo and food. LOL hahahahahahahahahahaaha


How far is that air base from New Orleans?

Sure would erase Frat Boy's biggest domestic blunder, eh?


This story is intended for other purposes, otherwise we wouldn't be hearing anything about it. The way the military lies and hides, but we hear about nuclear weapons going missing. Here's those WMDs we've been looking for. They're right here in the corner.

The children are in charge of the candy shop and the loonies are running the asylum.


DEAR GOD, where the hell IS that asteroid....it's late...


Barksdale AFB is the staging base for the Middle East... Coincidence that they were transfering 6 nukes to there? Coincidence that we will be attacking Iran 'soon'?


So the Air Force will be "standing down" on Sept 14th.

Hmm..


I've heard that you have to load tritium into the warheads in order to arm them and that this is not something that "just happens by mistake." More to the point, the Air Force announced that all flights of fighters and bombers in the United States will be halted on September 14 to allow for a review of procedures. Have we just alerted the world that our defenses will be down that day?


very good info here from Global Security Review, "daily news on nuclear, biological and chemical weapons terrorism and related issues." founded by Ted Turner and Sen. Sam Nunn.

http://www.nti.org/d_newswire/ is...5.html#149D6ECF

the "decommissioning" thing as an excuse for the "mistake" is a red herring. They do not send missiles to Barksdale, LA to be decommissioned -- Barksdale is decommissioning its OWN missiles. They decommission in New Mexico. And they use "special air transport" to get them there. they do NOT ferry the missiles in fucking bombers.

Sec. McNamara "ordered the grounding of all nuclear-armed aircraft," back in 1968, "a policy that has continued for four decades. Instead of flying with nuclear weapons, armed bombers were kept on alert on the ground with flight crews nearby to enable the planes to take off within minutes, if necessary.

"In 1991, President George H.W. Bush reduced the bomber alert status further by ordering nuclear weapons to be removed from the aircraft and kept in nearby storage facilities."

These warheads are not kept in the bombers. Somebody deliberately loaded those warheads, against all policies, and 40 years of history. It was some Crew's "mistake" ?

the red tape on nukes is HUGE! see date 14. excuse for a false flag


This is Homeland Security? We're fighting them there & pulverizing the sh*t out of ourselves here? Whoops! Butterfingers!

We're watching a tin-pot dictator strut around in military costumes, pinning medals to every screw-up in his administration & his foreign-policy apparatus is sending messages with bombers or real bombs? Where are the banana trees waving in the background?


No way. I'm not buying this "mistake" story at all. They mounted these things on the external PYLONS. Do any of you morons commenting here know what a pylon is? It's not something you transport plutonium on! It's a hardpoint under the wing which is wired to "hot" pickle switches on the yoke in the cockpit. It is designed for one thing and one thing only: actual launching of a cruise missle against a city below you. A pylon with a hot weapon on it (if that was the case) has no other use. In fact, Buff pilots can tell you, it is quite easy to accidentally bump (drop) those pickle switches by accident (with practice bombs hanging under the pylon.) It happened in the Indian Ocean in the 50's (Men of Honor movie was made about it.) A nuke was pickled off the pylon either by mistake or on purpose (they had an onboard fire and crashed; so it was probably on purpose) In fact, that is one possible procedure if the b52 catches on fire mid-ocean. "Pickle" your nukes into the ocean before you break apart or loose flight control from the fire.

While mistakes can be made, especially in today's Air Farce, this was an intentionally leaked story to scare citizens in my opinion. If you're scared, you get quiet. If you're quiet you don't object to another unpopular ilegal oil war. If you thing you're in danger, you allow politicians/generals to go hurt somebody overseas so they don't do it to you; so they don't declare martial law and decide that maybe the "enemy is within" (Al Quieda, Ben Forgotten, Sleeper cells, new code red boogieman, etc) hiding in U.S. cities; maybe even inside your house.

You morons should be outraged! Wether or not an actual implosion would occur if the damn things fell off the wing of a 50 year-old jurrasic jet is not the only danger. The thing can hit the ground hard and spead deadly U-238 dust on your town and you dumbfuuks will be living in it for 50 years.

What the hell is wrong with you people? Call up your congressmen and demand some heads on a platter before this kind of "mistake" starts happening seven days a week!

pacplyer - out
