    Post Iran fakes photo of drone shot down -- why?

    Iran uses an old photo of our drone being shot in Yemen, claiming that they shot it down today. Why?

    Because the Iranian Salami said this.



    The downing of the US drone was a warning message to the United States that Iranian army forces are capable of countering any “foreign aggression,” the head of Iran’s Revolutionary Guard Corps. Major General Hossein Salami has said, according to the country's Tasnim news agency on Thursday.

    In a strongly worded statement, Salami said the nation is "ready and prepared" for war......snip~

    Odd.

    Has anyone recovered the drone yet? I wouldn't supposed it would be good if Iran got their hands on it.

    They want to show that Obama's drones were purposely flown by Obama within striking distance of their weapons by the president at that time, being Obama. Did I mention Obama did it?

    They already got one in 2011. They hacked it and flew it home to Iran. Obama asked for it back. Iran said No. Obama said Okay.

    Oh dear. Well, this isn't new behavior for them, I see.
