A sends:

I don't know if you have seen the wildly publicized but rarely seen "full" video about the Hormuz encounter. Several media said Pentagon published it but I could not see it nowhere. Besides, several people searched for it and could not find the thing. And, except of a few fragments it was not shown in full by nearly anyone. With the exception of BBC, which published it but didn't announce it, there was nothing.

Now the full video came up. Right from inside the Pentagon. And it is 45 and not 36 minutes long as the media announced it. But the Pentagon seems it didn't announce it publicly. It just placed a link under Admiral Cosgriff press-conference's transcription:

http://www.defenselink.mil/transcripts/transcript.aspx?transcriptid=4116

That link was put quite after the press-conference. It was put even after Admiral Mullen's conference.

There is also the short video. The one that media, commentators, analysts and politicians branded as the "evidence" against Iran. Now if you haven't looked carefully at them, grab them, get a good seat, pick something strong and look at the first two minutes of each one. Listen carefully to the voices and look how the shots run. It seems someone is building Hormuzgate right inside the Pentagon.

In the meantime I wouldn't blow up things to everyone. I'm telling this because things may be more fishy than they seem and you are a fanatical information gatherer. I followed the story right from the "Hot news" headlines and things were WRONG from the very start. A lot of mixes, contradictions, second thoughts speculations etc, etc... The story nearly died twice and came up again, the first revival right when Pentagon published the short video. And the way the full video appeared makes me think all this is some sort of weird political game. A game that may have very deep and large consequences for everyone. So, for a little bit of time, I just would carefully follow where we are going with this game before I play the pawn. Better see the pawns playing and catch what the gamers are up to.
