The U.S. already has sent two aircraft carriers and a squadron of F-22 fighters to the Persian Gulf, and is keeping two U.S. army brigades in Kuwait. Though much of the buildup has been publicly acknowledged by the Pentagon, the deployment of the submersibles has not been publicly disclosed, apparently to avoid alerting Iran.Wow, I wish Sam Kinison were alive.
I guess the LA Times does not consider this a "public disclosure." Fortunately this bit of "top secret" intel was buried in the sixth paragraph of the story. It will take years for the Iranians to translate this story, and even longer for them to get to the sixth paragraph.
By the way, I doubt the Iranians are troubled by the F-22. US pilots are probably more concerned with the aircraft than the "enemy." I'm surprised it's even deployed.
[Update: my bad. The Iranians don't have to read to the sixth paragraph. It was noted in the headline.]
