From a conversation with my friend Evan yesterday:

7/10/08, 10:08 AM
Me: http://thelede.blogs.nytimes.com/2008/07/10/in-an-iranian-image-a-missile-too-many/
Me: dude, they only have ONE missile.
Me: look at the other two.
Me: it's just a progressive shot of ONE launch.
10:55 AM
Evan: Awesome.
Me: i may be wrong, but it looks too close
Evan: Sure does look exactly the same.

I totally called it.

From Drudge:

IRAN MISSILE TEST BLUFF: OLD ROCKETS, BOGUS VIDEO
Fri Jul 11 2008 15:18:02 ET

Many of Iran's claims related to missile tests during "Great Prophet III" war games -- appear to be smoke and mirrors!

The missiles tested DID NOT not have 2,000-kilometer range, the NEW YORK TIMES is planning to report on Saturday.

Iran DID NOT launch a Shahab-3 missile, able to reach Israel.

It was an older missile that was out of production, newsroom sources tell DRUDGE.

And a video showing what appeared to be many missiles being fired -- is actually one missile, filmed from different angles!

NYT's Bill Broad is planning to quote military insiders.
