This doesn’t pass the smell test.

1. The events are 30 - 50 km down.

2. The location is so close the the Persian Gulf that US aircraft could conduct surveillance without violating Iranian airspace. Sniffer aircraft could easily pick up traces of the tests.

Isn’t the seismic trace of an underground nuke detonation clearly distinguishable from that of an earthquake?

Yes, it is. This is dubious, without confirmation.

I do not see how this is helping elect Obama, Mister.

You have a lot to answer for.

It’s the justification for an attack. I think The Israelis can’t wait for the elections. obama will not support them.

Obama will have 300 million in his community. That is probably his limit.

How many places would there be in Iran where they could do something like this?

But according to ObamaMessiah, Iran is “too tiny” to pose a threat to anyone...

I don't really doubt this article but, ever since I read about Obama *plants* on Conservative blogs and websites, I have a strong reluctance to believe posts by NEWBIES.

To get a 4.8 scale signal from a nuke test, it would have to be a large device, in excess of 1 MT - which I doubt they have. There’s quite a difference in complexity between a implosion or gun type fission device and a multi-stage thermonuclear device.

This is footage of the Cannikin Test, which gave a signal of about 6, and it was a 5 MT device 5000 feet down.

“set up?” What does that mean exactly?

"Generated crisis"?

I knew it -—

why else are they in Iraq messing around - the whole mentality of, “ getting a little more closer to Israel” so when it is launched - early warning won’t have enough time to respond.

I’m sure they are waiting for NOV 04 to see who wins

McCain: they hold it - and build more - with multiple hidden sites - then sneak one or two off shore and launch it from a expendable ship into Israel.

Obama: they launch it immediately after he takes office - maybe this is what Joe Biden was referring to when he said international incident to test the “meddle” of the 0bama!

THIS IS JUST GREAT!

The location does not make any sense. Could be, but not likely.

Save this for posterity. I want to be wrong, but I reluctantly say that I don’t think I will be wrong. If Barack Obama is elected, there will be a nuclear event during his first term. It may be in an American city or it may be in the Middle East.

Personally I’m suspicious. That would have been the all time stupidest moment to perform a nuclear test. Not even the Iranians could be THAT incomprehensibly stupid.

If this news proves to valid, AND gets out to the public on a wide scale BEFORE TUESDAY, McCain wins.
