Gives a lot more credibility to that flight off of Long Island during the Clinton years. I forget the flt. #.

LGF has a pretty lively discussion about this:

Also, FYI & FWIW:
 Anyone recall that just three years ago (almost to the day) terrorists shot missiles at an Israeli airliner? Those missed too.  This is one of several interesting websites:
Missile/Rocket Reports

FBI agents believe it was a flare or a bottle rocket, but say they may never know if that's what it actually was

For those who may have forgotten, William Jefferson Clinton informed us that "we may never what happened" after Vince Foster died. Then the coverup began to function on all cylinders.

Some guy shines a laser at a plane and they find him and put him through the Ringer.

Someone shoots a projectile of somesort at a jetliner and it's just a bottle rocket or flare, there's no need for alarm.

THAT makes sense.

Use a little imagination, guys. It was a short in the wiring of the bottle rocket.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Reminds me of the BS after Flight 800 went down.
I don't believe what they are putting out there.

The sickest stupidest thing about all of this is that it took a bunch of amateurs (us) to actually prod people who are supposed to be professionals (news media) and keep the story alive before they would actually publish news.

We should call news something else, but it isn't the news media anymore.

I'm not exaggerating when I say that FR is where I get my news, period.

"FBI agents believe it was a flare or a bottle rocket, but say they may never know if that's what it actually was."

Like the OU student who was careful to blow himself up with explosives far from where anyone could be hurt? (sarcasm)
