This is all bull. Two choices here and neither one is what it seems.

1. Israeli Mosad impersonating Iranians or,

2. Corrupt USA defense contractors attempting to sell out the USA for profit and a new Air Force 1 contract.

What specifically is the name of this Bethesda , MD defense company that is so incompetent?

Please cut the B**S***. Is the security on the president ional flees so screwed up that can be shared through P2P like a pop song? Somebody in the company had sold it out to China or Russia with you can imagine how much profit and now they want to divert the attention to another direction by putting the name of Iran on it. If it is so sensitive, how come the media channels know about it? Is security matters are so easily obtainable these days? What if news channels need just hot news to get customers? It is all B**S***. Please put the blame on whoever lost the data instead of calling somebody else a thieve.

Wonder how much of our conversations were listened to or read by Bush and Company.? Does anyone know if its true that there is an underground area near Washington, D.C. where all e-mail's, phone conversations, especially to foreign countries are listened to?
All this makes a person want to stop watching the news on TV, stop reading the newspaper, stop using the telephone. I have never felt that way before in my life of 70 years but times have changed. I don't want to change with it, I want the last years of all of Americans to be peaceful and fruitful. I guess that is asking too much. Goodnight.

I think the Chinese will be able to breach the security of Scott Air Force Base, Mascoutah, Illinois. How will they do this. well, our local politicans in the spirit of The God Of Money, have established a "Chinese Hub" at Mid-America airport, which is located right next to Scott Air Force Base. The planes will be bringing freight/goods DIRECTLY from China. The Chinese planes will land on runways right next to Scott Air Force Base. Now, where is the Department of Defense? Where is the security for we here in Illilnois and the rest of the nation? Mid-America airport in Mascoutah, Illinois also has planes coming directly in from Bogota, Columbia. They are bringing in flowers. Are they also able to bring in drugs? Who's minding the store over there, it certainly isn't our local politicans i.e. Rep, Jerry Costello, Rep John Shimkus, Senator Dick Durbin and I have written to President Obama. No one cares. I haven't received any comments from any of these people. I guess when something happens, I can say, I told you so.....I don't want that to happen because then it will to late for all of us.

Another reason to begin construction on the new helicopter fleet immediately. The President's safety is paramount!

I guess if you leave your keys in your car and someone takes it, its theft.... But it could be construed as a gift. This is NOT a Republican conspiracy, anti-Iranian attack or any gift from Obama. It is simply an inept defense contractor, in this case Lockheed Martin, doing what they do best - running up the bill. The contract for these 24 helicopters was originally 'bid' at 6 Billion. Lockheed Martin has most recently set the delivery price near 12 Billion (the figure McCain objected to). Of course that was before the chopper's security systems were 'compromised'. Looks like its time to 'renegioate', upwards of course.

Check out this scenario.
It didn't really happen.
They're just sayin it did to sway the decision to continue that ridiculous contract for additional marine one copies that many believe are not necessary.
Yes some of these may be a wonderful tactic to fly a few to reduce the chance of 'which one he's in' but we don't need them for the associated generals and admirals to have as they're own 'fly home tonight' toys.
Wait.
Mabye they do need those..

I suppose the 1988 gasing of the Kurds where over 8000 were killed was a figment of our imagination?
