#1 50 ~= 1.7%. However, the article does not say how many were actually tested together. The thing is that if you have 3000 running and 50 blow up, the whole cascade goes down to tubes.

#2 Especially if the 50 blow up as a result of JDAM impact.

#4 Are we waiting to see if these idiots will blow themselves up first before we have to smack them?

#5 Wonder how many scientists and engineers have been executed for the failures so far. Probably a bunch.

#6 Point missed. These towel heads are planning on mass producing atomic bombs.

#7 Don't these things spin 20% faster than F1 engines?
Lets see if that persian engineering is better than Han's from Stuutgard or Aldo from Turin.

#8 That point is only missed by the left. A point theft will never let themselves see until its to late. At which time they will make excuses for Iran. Most likely blaming Americas aggressive stance and Israel for existing.

#9 Don't forget blaming the President for war in Iraq when the problem was Iran. Of course, in a parallel universe where we started with Iran, "the left" is blaming us for doing the opposite.

#10 I wonder what the left would say if we went to war against Israel?

#11 For the umpteenth time: the nuclear program is irrelevant. All we have to do is target the domestic gasoline/diesel production facilities, and the import terminals. Iran imports almost 75% of their gasoline/diesel. Destruction of the facilities would bring Iran and the blackhats to a grinding, screaming halt. The blackhats have recognized this and are on a building spree.

No gasoline for the masses? Mass rebellion.
