Iran unveils ‘ambassador of death’ drone

[Forkboy]

TEHRAN — President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad yesterday inaugurated Iran’s first domestically built unmanned bomber aircraft, calling it an “ambassador of death’’ to its enemies.

The 12-foot-long drone aircraft can carry up to four cruise missiles and will have a range of 620 miles, according to a state television report, not far enough to reach archenemy Israel.

“The jet, as well as being an ambassador of death for the enemies of humanity, has a main message of peace and friendship,’’ Ahmadinejad said at the inauguration ceremony, which fell on the country’s national day for its defense industries.

The goal of the aircraft, named Karrar, or striker, is to “keep the enemy paralyzed in its bases,’’ Ahmadinejad said, adding that the aircraft is for deterrence and defensive purposes.

2. On a side note, I have thoughts of a similiar thing.

By them removing my financing and social situation, I stay at my house, which keeps me away from people.

Hence if my comments on internet have no effect, then in all normal ways, any expressing of thoughts would not be heard. And basically I would not be able to have an effect. Even being nice at a bar around some local people gets removed by those actions.

However it is possible things are more then they seem, So in Jon Locke form, I believe in trusting in providence that if something should be seen or heard it would be seen or heard, even if not seen or heard.


In the money world, a smear to remove social contact, or a removal of finances, is how they try to isolate and stop people that do not believe in money first.

3. and what is the goal of our nuclear weapons? about the same

[Ikonoklast]

7. Not really.

The "Ambassador Of Death" is a fairly limited weapon, with limited capabilities.

Our thermonuclear weapons delivered by intercontinental ballistic missiles are more like "We're Going To Jack Up Your Entire Country".
