Suddenly I cannot think of a single thing QUITE so intoxicatingly interesting as what the French might be up to with this radio station on Pierre sur Haute!
Surely it must be just sinfully rich with secret sauce, mystery, and espionage! If only there were thousands of like-minded, curious individuals with the wherewithal to investigate and help bring these wonderful mysteries to light...
- praptak 14y agoObviously all this might be staged to divert our attention from the real shady stuff happening somewhere totally different :-)
- vidarh 14y agoIf only... The article states it's one of four military radio relays along the North-South axis in France, and that launch orders for nuclear weapons could pass through it if used. As such it'd probably be one of the primary targets for anyone who'd like to attack France. That kind of position probably makes some intelligence officials feel incredibly important if they can find an excuse to demand even relatively trivial information about it deleted.
- varjag 14y agoIt's pointless either way. If the intention was to keep the relay station secret, there's no use trying to put worms in back in the can once the information is public. They should relocate it and try better at not spilling the beans next time.
