If it can't, we are basically dead.
If it won't, we'll probably end up basically dead, because they're covering up for Caliph Soetoro.
Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.

The Pentagon Tuesday said it was trying to determine if a missile was launched Monday off the coast of Southern California and who might have launched it.

Yea, right...

The world has known about our sublaunch capabilities FOR A VERY LONG TIME
Aren't you comforted by this line (from FOXNEWS):
...'unexplained' by anyone in the military, Pentagon officials say, but they insist there was 'no threat to the homeland.'
I guess there was 'no threat to the homeland' because, after the fact, they can see that it missed.
The massive breakdown in our defenses that you speak of occurred January 20, 2009.
When a country has poor leaders, the people will pay the price in blood. I find it hard to believe that a foreign sub could get within 35 miles of the US west coast without being detected. On the other hand, if it can, Katie bar the door. We are in deep kimchee.
Can’t or Won’t.
Did you see Shep interviewing the retired Admiral?
Let's see. It's not far from Hollywood. So, what are the chances it's simply a publicity stunt for a new movie?
As has been noted on the many previous postings of this story.
Of course the Pentagon knows what happened. We have satellites everywhere. They can tell exactly where it came from, how big and who done it. Norad knew 5 seconds after that missile went off exactly what the deal was.
Is it just me or does anybody else find it strange that the President, Vice President, Sec of State and her hubby are all out of the country right now?
This missile was large like an ICBM and it either came from a ship or a sub. Maybe the Chinese blew one off and now behind closed doors are telling our people that the next one is going to be live. They are pretty ticked off about QE2. Whatever it is its a BIG deal.
I'd like to see if somebody with real knowledge of such things can debunk that explanation.
If that's explanation is proven, Ellsworth is going to look like a boob.
Another poster mentioned on an earlier thread that one indicator of friend or foe would be military (Naval) activity in and around the area and time. Heavy activity afterward would likely indicate foe.
“There’s an amateur rocketeer near LA who did not foresee what a kickass missile he built.”
I thought of that too. Can you imagine the “shrinkage” he’s experiencing right now? :)
With Oldbulnghole in India playing footsy.. China’s Asia rival... Can you say China?...I know you could....
Yeah, after the fact, we are all ok, so hey, it’s all good! :)
“I find it hard to believe that a foreign sub could get within 35 miles of the US west coast without being detected”
I don’t....
You can’t find something if you aren’t looking for it.
And Diesel-Electric technologies have advanced dramaticly in the last couple of decades.
Many DE’s are now QUIETER than Nuke subs.
My gut tells me this is the Chi-Coms delievering a very clear message to Obama.
