USS Enterprise at risk from False Flag op

The REALLY ugly thing is that federal officers have already
been told that a U.S. aircraft carrier is a sitting duck almost
anywhere in the Persian Gulf, because Iran is bristling
with Mach 2.9 "Super Sunburn" SS-N-26 Russian-made
cruise missiles.
Even without a nuclear warhead, the kinetic energy at
nearly 2,000 miles per hour is enormous: E = 1/2 mv**2
or 16 TIMES the kinetic energy of the same missile at 500 mph.
Although the Aegis defense system is designed to
prevent a single cruise missile from hitting the carrier,
there is a very real question about its prospects
against a coordinated barrage of these cruise missiles.
Specifically, if the "island" control tower suffers a direct
hit and/or if the flight deck is damaged enough to prevent
all aircraft operations, those aircraft already in the air
would need to land elsewhere, e.g. UAE, and the
aircraft on-board would be unable to launch
if not also damaged, destroyed or disabled.
In the face of these realistic tactical considerations,
it is reasonable to ask why the Navy would be
ordered to station a U.S. carrier anywhere in the
Persian Gulf, given the international tension that
already exists in that part of the world, and
given the extensive quantity and sophistication
of military hardware which Iran has purchased
from Russia and deployed along Iran's western
shore with the Persian Gulf.
Thus, with foreknowledge of all the above,
it is also reasonable to ask if the Bush
administration intends to "sacrifice" a
carrier, in order to rally public opinion
in favor of a massive bombing attack
on Iran. Given as desperate as the
administration has become, and
with its time inside the White House
rapidly running out, the above scenario
is certainly within the realm of possibility.
What would the Pentagon recommend if
Iran stationed a fully equipped aircraft carrier
about 100 miles off-shore of New York City?
Why the U.S. Navy doesn't see this coming
is anybody's guess, as of today.

We need to get this out to every list available. Bush and
company will do anything to go to war with Iran. When the
carrier is sunk we know where to go, with manila hemp, to
avenge these thousands of sailors.
