If we finding out about these they have had them for atleast ten yrs. America announced about 5 yrs ago or so that when the public first heard about stealth bombers and fighters they had been operational for 10 yrs prior. Makes you think what the hell else dont we know about right now 8O

As per usual, it's 10% truth and 90% fear-mongering b.s.

Personally, I reckon the US should wake up to themselves and quit f*cking about in Iraq / Afghanistan / elsewhere.

This whole b.s. fear-mongering campaign about terrorism is just that; a b.s. fear-mongering campaign.

Some would even argue that 3000 casualties (11.09.01) is a small price to pay, in order to avoid having our civil liberties eroded and our rights curbed. But most people can't see past the smoke and mirrors.
