THE US 'ANNOUNCED' THEIR INTENTION TO USE B61-11 BUNKER BUSTERS ON LAST NIGHT'S NEWS BULLETINS (BUT SOMEHOW FORGOT TO REFER TO THE FACT THAT THEY ARE CLASSIFIED AS TACTICAL NUCLEAR WEAPONS)
Yes, I noticed this as well. I wonder how many euphemisms we will now hear for the word "nuclear" until the American public is informed after the fact how wonderfully the weapons have worked. Such games require quite a bit of collusion on the part of our supposedly free and independent press. One wonders what would happen to the press credentials of a reporter who said - "Scuse me, Ari. Are those the nuclear bunker busters we're talking about?" I don't know if it's related, but there were reports earlier today that people were reporting seeing bright flashes of light and fireballs in the direction of Afghanistan. -- Eric Michael Cordian 0+ O:.T:.O:.
