Ok, this is really, really bad and scary news.  Yet our "press" has pretty much ignored the story, Fox only mentioned it in passing.  They did not mention the possible ramifications.  Like how soon Israel will be launching the jets...

Your not the only one

The article says it was launched into orbit, but doesn't say it stayed there.

Mr Ahmadinejad said the satellite was launched to spread "monotheism, peace and justice" in the world.

^^^That concerns me a lot more.

We shoulda shot that bitch down. I'm pretty sure we still could if we really wanted to.
