Aren’t they diverting air traffic into LAX for unspecified military purposes? I think they have now been specified. I read that one woman actually saw the missile come out of the ocean, which isn’t stopping the UFO alarmists.
Seems awfully close to a highly populated area for testing?
Yep, it was a submarine launched Trident, which is the norm for the Navy when they test this system.
They think that it is noble and oh so cool that Obama has gutted our phenomenal missile defense programs and stalled any deployment of a practical defense network to protect the United States and Europe from a nuclear first strike in an era of nuclear weapons and ballistic missile proliferation to axis of evil terrorist states.
At the same time Obama has gutted and degraded our nuclear and conventional arms used as a deterrent capability from a surprise first strike from any potential enemy.
Obama has willfully made the world a much more dangerous and unstable place, he has allowed terrorist states to continue their nuclear weapons development a proliferation programs, and he has blocked all attempts to deploy our anti ballistic missile defense shield.
Lucky for us this was just a test.
Next time it may be for real
The American people will then have a short time to reflect on their feckless irresponsibility in election someone like No Drama Obama to two terms as President and reflect upon the horrendous magnitude of their errors and engage in the requisite wailing an gnashing of teeth as they contemplate their impending doom.
By then it will be too late and who is to blame will no longer matter much because mushroom clouds do not differentiate between Progressives and conservatives or the informed vs the misinformed or uninformed.
This terror will be shot lived and over quickly because the time of flight of a Ballistic Missile launched from half way around the world is only about 20 minutes from launch to nuclear detonation over the target areas.
