Iranian TV: US video images, audio recordings of encounter in Gulf was 'fabricated'
http://www.pr-inside.com/iranian-tv-us-video-images-audio-r377957.htm

TEHRAN, Iran (AP) - Iran on Wednesday called video and audio released by the Pentagon showing Iranian Revolutionary Guards boats confronting U.S. warships in the Strait of Hormuz «fabricated,» an English-language state-run television station reported.

«The footage released by the U.S. Navy was compiled using file pictures and the audio has been fabricated,» the state-run English-language channel Press TV quoted an official in the Revolutionary Guards as saying.








"Coincidence Theory: By shear chance things just happen repeatedly and coincidentally to benefit their interests without any conscious connivance by them, which is most uncanny. There is also: Stupidity Theory, Innocence Theory, Momentary Aberration Theory, Incompetence Theory, Unintended Consequences Theory and Innocent Cultural Proclivities Theory."

- Michael Parenti
