If nukes had been used, minimum fallout or not they would have registered on all sorts of Global Monitoring devices - even the celebrated North Korean
"Fizzle Fiasco" registered on seismographs.
You cannot use things like this without some bugger spotting it happening.
Problem #2 is the reported flight configuration:
F-117, F-22 & an F-15?
What a mixed bunch - squadrons generally tend to fly the same planes, not a pick n mix variety.
Propaganda.
Finally.
If the syrians are building nuke stations for enriching Uranium, then they deserve whatever they get. Not that actually making a stack of enriched,
fissionable material is the same as being able to make it go critical and maintain that chain reaction before it chokes with all the impurities
created.
If it were as easy as enriched material, and a Neutron Gun to jump start the chain reaction, then every tinpot dictatorship there is would already
have them.
Twaddle, my firends - pure twaddle.

the way this story came out, with all parties involved keeping quiet until the story had enough force to force them to say something, anything...
who knows, maybe a UFO crashed into the place!
I don't think we will ever know what happened....NO ONE wants us to know!
anyone try searching the web, maybe someone who lives close enough to the place managed to get on line and post some info. But, none of the
governments are gonna tell yas the truth I don't think.

Is this the same "Best Air Force in the world" that, with shocking regularity, has managed to shoot up Friendly Forces in every recent operational
theatre?
Some would say that your statement is somewhat sweeping?

It says each was armed with 1 strategic nuclear missle. Planes are not armed with just 1 anything. They were probably loaded to the hill with
wwapons, they chose to point the nuclear missle thing out. It also said 1 bomb was dropped between the planes. Where does it say it was nuclear?
The site was a nuclear installation, so 1 bomb should do the job.
Jeez!
Stupid does as stupid is told to do!
DAM

Read the source article. It says "each US plane carried one tactical nuclear weapon". The word "missile" is not even in the Jerusalem Post
Article!
Since I'm saying check the source, I decided to find a source on Al Jazeera, so I went there and did a search
english.aljazeera.net...
Either Al Jazeera did not include what the Jerusalem Post is reporting in their transcripts
or
the Jerusalem Post got misled
or
the Jerusalem Post lied.
Which goes to show that you can't believe everything you read!

I agree with 99% of what you say.
The 1% I disagree with is "that 99% of the news reported in the Mainstream US News is absolute fact."

I gotcha covered big T.
Translated linky thingy.
SO this whole thing is based on an "unnamed businessman"?
"The businessman, who asked not to be identified - in an exclusive statement to the island's Net - that the process was the participation of two
strategic bombers vehicle sticking small tactical nuclear bombs, aircraft squadron They were accompanied by Israeli F-15, F-16, took responsibility
for control and protection"

there's many kinds of "nukes", and sounds like you're not very familiar with the effects of anything except what you've seen in 1950s news reels.

But the article states it was the USAF and IAF not the RAF.

so wheres the fallout then......
ever single above ground detonation , ever , including the 100 ton warheads from the bazooka`s has left fallout.
edit:
www.sonicbomb.com...
that video is of the `little feller 1` test using the bazooka with the warhead set at 18 tons (the W54 warhead is dial-a-yield from 10 to 250 tons
equivilent explosive power) see that dust? thats highly radioactive and of course will drift away and land as fallout...

This story seems to incredible to believe. Besides the fact that no fallout whatsoever has been detected. Is it credible to think that ALL the
parties kept quiet the fact a nuclear device had been used? If a nuclear device was used, one would think that some one some where would have said
something immediately. And if Israel, or the US, would have dropped a nuke Iran would have launched a retaliation within hours.
Also there would have been SOME fallout somewhere. I have not heard of any reports of radiation sickness from anyone let alone any abnormal increase
in background radiation.
This is more an example of how shoddy the state of reporting has become in the international media. Whatever happen to that adage of checking your
facts twice and then checking them again?

LOGIC - if nukes had occured Russians would be all over it! Personally, I buy the alternative version that Israeli jets inbound to target found craft
ALREADY there, apparently waiting for iaf to show up, and who the IAF ENGAGED thinking they were hostile... the craft did the job with super
explosives (conventional) then easily evaded iaf by going straight vertical (not climbing but horizontal displacement!!). Netanyahu is described as
saying "you will be stunned at what happened"...then nothing more from him...thinking did he "spill the beans" on that one?

Are y'all of so low intelligence that the thought that whoever did this, because there was something (maybe in the BBC photos) bombed, is practicing
for the big IRAN bombings. It doesn't matter then if it was Israel or the U.S. or the two combined. I can't see the RAF involved, though.
Iran will be bombed it's just a matter when.

But who's going to report the readings? I doubt that Israel or the US is going to do another "deep penetration" to get readings from the
site.
It'll eject particulates which you can pick up with an air sampler.
You can spot things you wouldn't believe; they're incredibly sensitive.

It certainly does...
Because whoever did it is guilty of a warcrime.
Er, I mean another warcrime.

It could well have been two Spirit B1 bombers with the new mods that allow them to carry the MOABS or the BIg BLU bombs....?
Thjey would be STRATEGIC aircraft....
the fighters are TACTICAL weapons actually....
These MOABs are sufficiently powerful to knock a site likr that pretty flat....20,000lbs or so.....one huge concussion bomb...
These are precision guided weapons and they could easily be what they refer to as missles......

If it was a warcrime, why didn't Syria bring U.N. inspectors to the site as soon as it happened?
Syria? You out there listening? Hello?

Using Al-Jazzera as a credible news source is pretty much a joke. I find it improbable that tactical nukes were used for several reasons but most
importantly NO RADIATION reported anywhere in the surrounding area's. No radiation means no nuke. Really simple.
