Spooky Stuff

Don your tinfoil hats folks for a foray into the realm of the spooks.  Our journey starts with a reference on The Drudge Report which points to a story on WND (stands for World Net Daily, a conservative website) which states that a huge explosion at a deep-underground nuclear facility in Iran has caused a considerable disruption to its nuclear ambitions. I recommend that you read this story with a skeptical eye for, as they say, if something sounds too good to be true, it's usually false.  (See: WND Story).  But, on the chance that this sabotage reporting does turn out to be true, then our main-stream media echo chamber has failed us once again … I guess free contraceptives for women really is a much more important issue after all. Either that or the New York Times is finally listening to our government when it is asked not to publish sensitive intelligence information (ha-ha).

I also made the possible mistake of reading through many of the myriad comments attached to this story … some of which are scurrilous and even racist.  But, within these comments, I did pick up references to “secret” weapons which I had never noticed before and which the U.S. might or might not have developed to the point of deployment .  And so I Googled these weapon's names and found the following for HAARP (High Frequency Active Auroral Research Project) … see: HAARP Story  and EMP (Electromagnetic Pulse) Weapons  … see: Science Magazine Story.  

Both these weapons seem rather avant garde and scary ... particularly if some of our enemies have them also. And I'm sure we probably have other doomsday devices about which we haven't a clue. Now .. try to have a undisturbed sleep tonight ... and cross your fingers about that explosion in Iran.
