63. and you, sir,
are trying SO hard to believe your government.

Read up on William Blum, and other historians who have documented the blatant LIES we've been told.

This one is not even very covert in nature...it mirrors the Gulf of Tonkin incident incredibly.

If you don't have the "goods" on the enemy, you don't release a video and strut around thinking you're right. Saying, "oops..the audio doesn't match the video" doesn't cut it. You lose legitimacy in that.

It doesn't make rational, common sense either. Why would the Iranians, knowing the have a LOT more to lose than the United States, provoke the United States and give it a cassus belli. I'm sorry, the Iranians are NOT stupid. To risk open war just to taunt American ships would be the most absolutely stupid act of naval activity EVER recorded.

I don't buy it...and with the admission of the fake audio, it smells more like an American lie.
