War

It turns out that Blackwater was a CIA organization. As obvious as that seems in retrospect, I never thought of it nor heard of it previously.

This is an entertaining story exposing how upside down our government and its propagandists are.

"According to a "CNN exclusive" report today, prominently headlined on Drudge, the Iranian military caught a US predator drone spying on Iran from over international waters in the Persian Gulf. The Iranians launched a manned aircraft to shadow the drone, which eventually exited the area. No shots were fired.
But it was all the Iranians fault for bothering the drone as it went about its business. As CNN writes in the first paragraph: "It was the latest in Iranian efforts to thwart the U.S. military's airborne intelligence collections efforts in the region."
How dare the Iranians attempt to thwart US intelligence collection efforts (presumably including targeting information in advance of a potential US attack)!"

Too funny.
