No mystery, that was Nancy Pelosi's head after reviewing the election results.

This is a serious event... not even the Pentagon knows what it is.


***edit*** they DO know and are afraid to admit it.

It had to be north korean, it went the wrong direction!

I was able to zoom in and get a close-up image of the missile:

mole'

they were talking about it on the local news. saying it could have been one of the subs from SD.

mhardy6647

SD. South Dakota?

dkg999

It obviously was an "Oh Holy Sh$t" moment for someone!

san diego you fools

i was stationed there for sometimes on Nuc Subs

mhardy6647

right. I think I saw some Navy thing one time in San Diego :-P

In seriousness, I remember visiting a (now-defunct) biotech company that was on a runway approach to Miramar. It was pretty dramatic, actually.

MillerLiteScott

We do not know what this is yet???????????????????????????

Somebody might want to look into this.

Looks like a rocket or missile to me, but I am basing that on what was shown as a missile launch, on tv from North Korea. I am not saying it is North Korea.

fatchowmein

Any chance this was a foreign power demonstrating it's ability to launch a missile off our coastline?

cnh

Obviously we were tracking this? So WHERE did it GO! And why doesn't anyone want to tell us?

It was superman! Seriously, they think it was contrails from a jet. Everyone relax and unload your rifles.

The time to stop pretending that threats to our Nation do not exist was on a sunny day in September almost ten years ago... To not at least be somewhat concerned is to have your head still planted where the sun don't shine. I do not mean to imply that this is true in your case, but to call those of us that are troubled by this "silly" is well... just plain silly.:rolleyes:

Get bent.

This is certainly known. If it was a loony country hell bent on destroying us, they would have claimed it by now and we would have been all up in their faces over it.

If it actually was a missile, it was the Navy or the Air Force. They know full well what is going on and they have decided that the efforts are too sensitive for general knowledge and have denial of existence status.

If this was a real threat, things like stock markets would be going bonkers and the people in California would notice things like military jets and ships everywhere where they normally aren't.

The sheer lack of response from The Pentagon is evidence that it's nothing special. You know what else is nothing special? The fact that enemies do not fire away from the target. In addition, the only militaries in the world with the underwater technologies that can sneak in to our waters without us knowing are either our friends or not aggressive. The ONLY one who would have the balls to do such a thing is Russia. They would have been bragging about it already.

On top of that, I know for a fact that there is testing occurring in the Pacific right now. I also know that these tests are considered secret. I know because I've been on many of them, myself. Mums the word, we were not even allowed to tell our families where we were going when we were on these testing events.

But yeah, you guys and your tinfoil hats know way more about it than anyone else, right? You have it all figured out, don't ya? If any of you believe one word of the "We dunno" story then you're the ones who are naive.

And that's all if it actually is a missile and not something like an airplane contrail on the horizon.

Thought I was on your ignore list? Thought you weren't gonna talk to me anymore? You should stop. Talking to me that is.

My clearance expired earlier this year. It's not active any longer. It'' stay on record for 7 years. After that I'll have to have a whole new background check done.

dkg999

So let's pretend it was an attack by a hostile nation or extremist group. Would we really want to stop them prior to destroying CA? I think we let them take out CA as a gesture that they are really serious. I mean what can it hurt? We lose literally nothing of value and we deplete their energy and weapons.

eh, let by gones be by gones. i never said i'd put you on my ignore list. or did i? sounds like a pain in the arse. no need to ignore anyone. to me it's like placing yourself into the dark with what's going on around you... vitually speaking, of course.

mole' I didn't know your a fellow squid, I served on the U.S.S Monticello LSD-35, bummer I just found out the Navy sunk her during RIMPAC 2010 in July. Long live the MoBoat :frown:

Come on guys take some Valium and mellow out, If it was an attack of some kind we would all know by now or at least we'd all be glowing in the dark by now. It was probably some woman on a boomer that went "What's this button do?"

Jeff_J

Possibly a coup d'

i don't trust anything i see on the news anymore. the media seem to be pawns of the gov't. but the media is the only source of news i have. so i'm effed either way. so when mmadden asked "what are you gonna do?" i can only answer with a resounding "NOTHING".

the internet offers up a bit of added info, but it's still not good enough.
