Lets not have suggestive headlines or anything...

Iran has underground missiles! They are testing! Narggg! Sayeth the defense secretary. Doesn't this sound familiar? Do they have weapons of mass propaganda (oops, I mean destruction) or is that our own country? Hmmm...
Maybe a true headline would read as follows:
Iran is no longer selling us cheap oil! America will not stand for this! Justice and freedom and democracy demand it! They are bad guys!
Or perhaps like this:
Defense secretary receives a stickit! yellow memo which says plan B: just like Iraq and Afghanistan again, you know the drill...

Granted, the actual headlines could very well be true... but it's likely that there is more than meets the chub with this flabbergastiness...
