Why the new story on the Cole Attack? Why has the kind of explosive used not been released? Someone obviously found

greenspun.com : LUSENET : TB2K spinoff uncensored : One Thread

the satelite pictures that proved that the ship had been in port for 2 hours and threatened to release the information so the Navy changed the story so ALGORE would not be embarrassed again. What was the explosive made of? Some new exotic material or the same type of stuff used by the U S military? Why do so many news stories have to be corrected? Were the lies deliberate or just plain incompetence and confusion?

Al,

Could it be that the reason for the release of the new story is timing due to the men and women coming back home? Think about it, while they weren't on US soil, no one would know exactly how long they were there. Now that they are here, the guys/gals might start talking.

Why don't you ask that "Great" Investigator of the US Navy, Lord Jim Dumbo?? Surely, he will know.

Its right up his alley: "They aren't telling us everything because.....".
