It is hard to imagine that the media and the Obama Administration do not take the missing drone seriously. Bear in mind that this was not a standard drone - it was our most advanced, technological marvel. It included stealth technology that took us 40 years to develop (it is based on certain radio isotopes that absorb doppler instead of reflecting doppler). The technology has been studied since WWII. German scientists began working on stealth technology and our government brought them here to develop this vital technology (I have met on of the scientists, God rest his soul).
President Obama "politely" asked for teh drone back. President Obama publicly acknowledged for the first time yesterday that Iran is holding a special stealth US drone that went down over its territory.
“We have asked for it back. We’ll see how the Iranians respond,” Obama told reporters at a White House press conference alongside Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki. Yeh, THAT is going to happen. They are trying to reverse engineer it as we speak and then they will sell it to China and Russia.
We all know that it could have and can be destroyed...but now it is in the hands of those that seek to hurt many people.
I do have faith that it will take the Iranians years to reverse engineer the drone...but this was a huge unforgivable mistake that this administration has made.
The only good thing that cam eout of this was a line by Jay Leno....Iran is now in possession of an American drone. When I heard that I thought, "Oh, my god, they captured Joe Biden?"
