"Retired Air Force Brigadier General Jim Cash was the Assistant Director of Operations for North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) in the late 1980s. NORAD is located inside Cheyenne Mountain in Colorado and has a team of over 150 highly trained professionals who detect and monitor all missile activity 24 hours a day, every day. General Cash was quoted in an editorial he wrote (which was carried by AP) as saying, In my opinion there is absolutely no doubt that what was captured on video off the coast of California was a missile launch, was clearly observed by NORAD, assessed by a four-star general in minutes and passed to the President immediately. That is the way the system works and heads fall if there is a failure. This is one of the most important tenets of national defense and its sole purpose of protecting the American people. Even the smallest failure in this system gets intense scrutiny at the highest level."
Interesting insight I had not seen before.

I just want to see the whole ten minutes of raw, unedited footage that was claimed to be shot by the copter cam.
All I've seen that was claimed as raw has been pointed out here on FR to have been edited, with a step-by-step reasoning as to why it was called out as being edited.

Really, really stupid, it was a jet contrail. An astute viewer even identified the inbound flight from Hawaii, and shot a very similar video the next day at the same time.

Ten million people didn't miss a missile being launched right in front of them, nor did the missile radar at Ventura County Naval Base pick up anything (nor anything else for that matter.) Los Angeles’ airspace is the most monitored airspace in the nation. If a missile had launched within 40 miles of LAX, it would have been recorded from nine separate radar systems, excluding the inland systems or missile defense systems if it didn't penetrate high enough.
It was a plane contrail.
Oh, and by the way, yes, Americans did go to the moon.

Isn't it interesting to see all the experts on this subject who present as fact that this WAS NOT A MISSILE. Even tho it's never been actually determined what it was. I think there are a few misdirectors here and a lot of followers. Believe what you want, but don't denigrate the questions of others with sarcasm when you don't have any actual proof to substantiate your “facts”. That is as stupid as the arguments liberals present.

They do have the remains of the missile. It's in a secret warehouse near Roswell, NM. Apparently, Roswell was the intended target, but the aliens, who want to destroy, and thereby cover up their lost spaceship blunder, miscalculated the amount of fuel necessary. Something about metric conversions.
