What is your source for that statement?
Questions asked and answered. If the point of the article is to infer the warning means the US is not answering whether they launched a missile and hiding the evidence for it, or "slamming the door on questions about the mysterious contrail," that's refuted in their own article.…Lt. Col. Robert Ditchey from the Office of the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Public Affairs reaffirmed DOD's original statement by saying that inquiries were made with each of the services and the Department of Homeland Security which includes the Federal Aviation Administration and it was concluded that there were no launches that day."...
""NGA provided a report back on 10 Nov during the initial media coverage, that their Maritime Watch Desk had no information that would link the NAVAREA XII 453/2010 warning to the contrail reported in the media.
"All DOD entities with rocket and missile programs reported no launches, scheduled or inadvertent, during the time period in the area of the reported contrail," Ditchey said.
"In addition, the FAA ran radar replays from Monday afternoon (of Nov. 8) of a large area west of Los Angeles," he added. "Those replays did not reveal anything unusual. The FAA also did not receive reports of any unusual sightings from pilots who were flying in the area Monday afternoon."
And the fact that NORAD said it was not a foreign military missile is once again irresponsibly left of in this and the original article.
When the article's actual facts, parsed out of what they "suggest" according to WND, show just the opposite. They suggest nothing of the sort that WND suggests. Good grief what shoddy journalism. Even CBS didn't hype that far.
