In response to Defense Secretary Robert Gates' investigation of the missing/mishandled nukes that left Minot AFB and wound up in Barksdale AFB (a staging area for materiel headed for the Middle East), CIA Director and Air Force General Michael Hayden has been asked to retire from active Air Force duty effective 1 July 2008. Like Prime Minister Pervez Musharraf, Hayden has been asked to take off his uniform. Gates' investigation of the missing nukes lead to the dismissal of Air Force Secretary Michael Wynne and Air Force Chief of Staff "Buzz" Moseley for being part of Vice President Dick Cheney's secret "chain of command." It was Cheney's secret chain of command that is alleged to have given the orders, through CIA Director Hayden, to pull the nukes out of Minot and send them to Barksdale. Presumably this move of highly sensitive and tightly controlled inventory would be in advance of any attack on Iran.

As Secretary of Defense, all Gate's can do is dismiss General Hayden from the Air Force even though he continues to be the Director of the CIA.

If this were the real United States of America and we had a real President, the entire chain of command at CIA and the Air Force would be dismissed from top to bottom. Then the Vice President would be told to tender his resignation, effective immediately. A real President would have done all of this by now. The nameplate on Hayden's office wouldn't even be cold yet.

Instead what we have is a fraudulent government run by a criminal syndicate intent on doing the bidding of the Israeli Mossad. We may not launch a first strike against Iran, but Israel can't send fighter jets to Iran without tankers provided by the US military.

Israel's extremists seem intent on "cashing in" on as much of the American right wing's apocalyptic nonsense as they can before it all blows up in everyone's face. Then we all will come to realize that Jesus isn't coming back, the dead will not rise (nor do they want to) and the Catholic Church has been telling lies to small children for 2,000 years. So let's all get drunk, disband, intermarry and move into condominiums.

Roland "Tony" Carnaby, the former Houston CIA station chief was hot on the trail of those within our own government intent on starting a war with Iran while he was also in charge of protecting all of Houston's vital assets from "terrorist" attack.

If you live anywhere near the ports of Houston, you might want to consider taking an extended vacation - say 12 months or so. An attack on US soil is virtually guaranteed in the run up to any attack on Iran. Of the three potential targets - Houston, Chicago and Portland - Houston seems to have the highest body count of intelligence assets and the highest count of black Democrats originating from New Orleans.
