How the heck could the WH rule that out so fast? I mean, I saw a story llast week about illegal aliens working on a naval warship. Even if the WH knows what happened to the shuttle, they can't say why yet. Can they?

They've already said that there is no missle or weapon capable of flying high enough to reach it. And I'm guessing that everything on that shuttle goes through multiple checks and is probably monitored and tested continually.

The Shuttle appears to have suffered this disaster at 200,000 feet. If a missle were laundhed at a Shuttle it would have been 'seen' on radar...and the types of missles available to terrorist can't go to those altitudes.

Prayers for the crew and thier families.

I said something similiar to my wife. As many Muslims are are in our nation working in Universities, Government projects and even at NASA, how hard would it be for one to slice a hydrolic line?

BTW, did the perp who cut those US Marine's parachutes last year, ever get caught? Sadly, many Muslims, even with US citizenship, see themselves as Islamic way before being America.

I feel this was probably an accident, but sabatoge can't be ruled out so quickly. JMO
