That is an extremely questionable source it is old as well.

No one is waking up to WWIII in the morning.

World War II was quite enough thanks very much.

I wonder if in 60 years our grand-kids will be sitting playing WW3 combat simulators? trying to immerse themselves in the reality of it all?

Or will they be trying to figure out how to build shelter and find something edible in the nuclear wasteland that we leave them.

Humans are so damned stupid.

It's a beautiful morning no mushroom clouds, slight chance of solar flares, and no Iranian para troopers falling out of the sky. So if this did happen why can't the media report on this, and if this does come out how will they spin it, that they couldn't report this in a timely fashion. ??????? You can't have free country with out a free press it is a shame that I have to get world news here now I know why the government wants control of the internethttp://www.arabtimesonline.com/NewsD...6/Default.aspx

US denies sea clash - ‘Iranians rescued’

KUWAIT CITY, March 6: The US Navy has denied reports that its forces fired on a boat with six Iranians onboard near Kuwaiti territorial waters on March 5, killing four, wounding one and leaving one mariner unaccounted.

The article, dated March 6 in the Arab Times, that reported the incident from an unnamed source in Al-Shahed newspaper, is unequivocally false and unfounded, according to Lt Rebecca Rebarich, Media Officer for COMUSNAVCENT, US Fifth Fleet based in Bahrain.

“The article inaccurately depicts the search and rescue mission conducted by the US Navy from March 3-4, involving the US Navy Coastal patrol boat USS Firebolt (PC10) and US Coast Guard Cutter Maui (WPB 1304) which rescued an Iranian mariner from the capsized Iranian cargo dhow Abu Al Fazel in the north Arabian Gulf who was treated for shock and hypothermia. Through Firebolt’s civilian translator, the surviving mariner relayed that at approximately 11 pm on March 2, the dhow sank due to bad weather conditions with six mariners aboard. He also confirmed that four died and one was missing. Firebolt recovered the remains of three deceased Iranian mariners in and around the lifeboat and searched for the two missing crew members with other US Navy and Coast Guard forces,” Rebarich added.

“We have confirmed with the Kuwaiti Coast Guard that there is no report of any maritime engagements or mariners in distress resembling the Arab Times article, and their operations remain normal and routine. The US Navy conducts operations in international water and space through the US Central Command area of responsibility,” Rebarich clarified.

Well thats just silly, keep fish in your fish pond, what you are doing is like keeping a mole in your worm farm.
Unless of course you are sick of eating worms now and want some mole instead, but then you might want two moles so you can farm them for all of your end of the world days feasts.

Well I'll tell you something about World War Three, it's about as punctual as British Rail, I've been waiting for it since 1984 and it still hasn't shown up. Politicians on the line they keep saying...
