At face value I think something really did happen. And I'm not above thinking the FBI wants to make it go away. It would not be the first time a plane was fired upon by a missle and the FBI told us it "didn't happen".
After the total incompetence of our FBI and CIA leading up to 911 I am not totally convinced they could solve a shop lifting crime. Let's hope that next time at least our military intelligence orgs will be more adept. Hmmmm, miltary intel, oxymoron?
Oh yeah, twas the FBI and CIA that gave us the center fuel tank hooplah wasn't it.
Oops, forgot, we don't need to rely on FBI and CIA for future terrorist acts do we? We got Homeland Security!!!!
Sheriff Taylor and Barney Fife would do better.
