I Used to think it was a missle.
But after 10 years, ain't no way the government would have been able to cover that up and keep it covered up for this long.
By now, leaks would have been all over the place.
I guess it wasn't a missle now.

I'm still keeping an open mind- not enough information yet. But, if it were not a US missile, you would only have one cell or two to keep quiet. No need for a shipload of sailors and the hundred or so supply people, just six in the US and six more somewhere else.
And this was during Clinton- for sure if it HAD been a US missile, he'd have been all over them. This was the pres who tried to stop the Marine Band from playing at his inaugural, fer hemsakes.
If I were to speculate, I'd suggest a shoebomber on the plane and a ground crew to fire some military-type smoke/marker rocket for diversion (so as not to reveal the nature of the real threat, which could easily be stopped if you knew about it.) Just speculating, here.
Take a look at the number of commercial air fatalities before 9/11 and the number after- planes have stopped falling out of the sky, and I must take my shoes off to get through security at LAX.

What good is a terrorist attack if (a) nobody knows you did it and (b) you never repeat it (I.e., not a dry run.)?
