Do you consider the folks at Jane’s to be conspiracy nuts?
But Doug Richardson, the editor of Jane’s Missiles and Rockets, examined the video for the Times of London and said he was left with little doubt.
“It’s a solid propellant missile,” he told the Times. “You can tell from the efflux [smoke].”

Looks like Rush still has his 98.9% record of being right is intact.

He must work for the IPCC too.
Even some experts are idiots. On their own subject. It also depends on the context in which the info is presented to them. He may not be an idiot, but was merely set up.
If someone had shown me this video with no preconceived notions, my first reaction would have been that it looks like an airplane contrail - or maybe a missile, depending on the context.
For me to even seriously entertain the idea that it is a missile launch, I’d need more evidence (not mere opinion) than just the video and stills I’ve seen. So far, there is none. Based on the evidence at our disposal, “airplane contrail” wins in a landslide.
Now, if more EVIDENCE presents itself...well, that’s different.
