Re: Obama is really blowing it with this lost drone issue.

I dont think Obama has many options.

its been reported they thought about sending a recon team in or "bombing" it. Im sure Iran anticipated a recon team and that option would have been another failure.

Bombing would just rachet up the tension and perhaps give Iran the reason they are looking for to continue denying UN access to their facilities.

Iran isnt Iraq, its not some desert country with guys riding camels and ak-47s.

Iran recently took down our entire CIA spy network in Iran. The whole thing.

Bolton said the scary thing is the thought that Iran has purchased jamming technology from Russia in which they could jam missles, drones etc. A much bigger problem than Iran having materials they couldnt begin to know how to replicate.

There is a huge spy operative war going on in Iran and in the US (Iran operatives trying to assasinate ambassadors on US soil). Tit for tat.
