Well, yeah, and beyond that the whole thing smells of rope-a-dope to me. Since when does the US Gummint talk about breaking codes, listening in to any enemy, disclosing responses-—on-and-on? My money says the whole story is made up-—as a distraction-—dog wagging going on. And by the way, who the bleep believes that anyone involved with AQ thinks their phone is secure. They have to know that a signal from a phone call can get a missile stuck in the other ear. If there is the tiniest bit of truth to the phone call event it has to be a ruse to see what our response might be. It’s reminding me of the Jap Navy falling for the “water supply at Midway” trick that helped break their naval code before they lost their buttz at Midway.
DUMB
Obama...Can you hear us now??
