Two years ago and still unexplained

[Derek]

Two years ago, six nuclear armed weapons were attached to the wings of a B-52 bomber and flown from North Dakota to Barksdale, the USAF staging base for Middle East operations.

This took place in contradiction to all laws and all military procedures. Military experts could not recall a single incident of this kind ever taking place.

Two years later, the event has still not been credibly unexplained.

And of the six weapons that were put on the plane, only five have been fully accounted for.

Some folks have short memories.

I await the next terrorist outrage perpetrated by 'Islamic extremists with links to Al Queda'.

I see what you`re getting at,but could it have been in preparation for counteraction in response to Iran`s nuclear ambitions.

Surely America doesn't have to steal its own weapons to face Iran?

Then maybe they were doing a stock take and wanted to dodge some stuff from the tax man.
