Default Controversial Kursk Story

Just found this and didnt know what to make of it. I really do fail to see how we (British) could keep such a thing secret. I dont believe the story but wondered if anyone else had heard or read this and what their thoughts were on it.

After reading numerous threads here at Subsim, I am convinced that the Kursk was destroyed the same way the World Trade Center was - by genetically modified metal eating termites.

Think about it.

i think it was Al Queada (no idea how to spell that). The rationale behind my deep thinking is that, they're to blame for everything else. they gotta be involved!!

Every word of the article is true yes you heard me true 100% it's all true every word is true.












Thanks for the £1000 S. Dmitriyev that will come in handy, just to add if you want me to stick up for more of your crap sorry the true facts just keep the money flowing in my direction.

Everyone knows it was USS Memphis, not a Brit sub, that sank Kursk

odd i cant remember hearing about the loss of a trafalgar, they dont stay at sea that long. iam sure something would have been mentioned if 130 sailors failed to turn up or if a pretty sizable ship had gone missing.

i believe they are all accounted for as most were having reactors checked at the time following the tireless incident.

il be sure to phone the navy and get them to double check the fleet and make sure none are missing.

If you want a good book about the Kursk disaster and well written with no jingoism get "Kusrk : a Time to Die" by Robert Moore. Well written and a good read too.
