fun with "news" - UPDATED

UPDATE 2: Now some anonymous officials are saying it was probably China. A rather more serious accusation. Note that none of these people are on the record -- it's all assumptions and anonymity.

At the very least, according to this source, it was a missile. As to whether it was ours or theirs, he does not know. But he said “they do,” a reference to the brass. The rumors circulating “within the [Pentagon] rings” suggest that it was a deliberate launch of a missile from “Chinese property at sea” intended as a warning to the U.S. Although it was odd that he would not clarify the nature of the “Chinese property,” I can only assume that it did not originate from Catalina Island or U.S. military ships in the area, as we still own those, at least to my knowledge.
A domestic intelligence source speaking to me off the record acknowledged the event by his assurances that it was indeed “some type of large missile” and not an illusion or model rocket. This, according to information from his superiors, who are deeply rooted inside the beltway. He provided a lot of technical speak that amounted simply to this: the air traffic controllers were taken by surprise and clueless, there were no prior warnings of any scheduled military tests issued, and no one from the military has confided to his agency that “the missile” was ours and launched by mistake. In other words, it was not ours and it was no mistake.

His very next sentence:

It is sadly ironic that 47 years ago this month, the entirety of America and the world witnessed the murder of a U.S. president in broad daylight.

False flag on China then? Prior warnings?

U.S. 'Notice to Mariners' Report May Explain Mystery Missile Launch Posted by Lori Price, www.legitgov.org 11 Nov 2010 A 'Notice to Mariners' report entry may explain the missile launch earlier this week from Southern California waters near Catalina Island. Page 55 of the current 'Notice to Mariners' report, dated 6 November 2010, notes upcoming firing operations in that area. The report is published weekly by the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency and prepared jointly with the National Ocean Service and U.S. Coast Guard.

Also see the air traffic control warning (scroll down this post).


Who is really declaring war? The US is declaring financial war on other countries.


Whenever there is talk of war, there must be bankers nearby.






UPDATE: US 'Notice to Mariners' report may explain mystery missile launch 

This is a very telling remark:

Military officials said it was possible a private company may have been behind the incident but Mr Pike did not agree with internet theories that it was an unannounced missile test, adding: 'If it were secret, we'd do it at night in Alaska.'

Perhaps a bit of a social engineering experiment then? To take the temperature of the population? Complicated by the fact that it was caught on some high quality film as opposed to a few people's cellphone cameras? Which would have been much easier to brush off?

^^^^^^^

Just quickly..... regarding the mystery missile launch reported off the West Coast...

This is a great opportunity to see:

1) How people in our government and military lie.

2) How people in the media treat Americans like idiots.

3) How disinfo agents operate.

What does the military say about this?




They don't know a thing about it.

Under normal circumstances, the launch of a US missile would require several different authorisations and notifications, but none are evident. It is unclear if the suspected missile was launched from land or sea.

It wasn't them.

"Right now all indications are that it was not [defence department] involvement in this launch" Pentagon spokesman Col David Lapan said.

They can't explain it.

"So far we've come up empty with any explanation," Col Lapan said. "We're doing everything we can to try to figure out if anybody has any knowledge of what this event may have been."

But somehow, they are sure it is no threat to Homeland Security.

The Pentagon does not consider the missile a threat.

OK???

[UPDATE: Did someone say it was no threat? Oops! That doesn't make much sense. Actually, now that they think about it, they realize that the object's "mysterious origins" mean that it is not possible to rule out any threat to the Homeland after all.]


Fox News says it was probably just an airplane. Mystery solved...?

A video that appears to show a missile launch off the coast of California is so far "unexplained" by anyone in the military, a Pentagon spokesman told reporters Tuesday -- but what seems mysterious could be nothing more than an airplane.
Federal officials do not consider the event a threat. And they aren't the only ones.
According to a post on ContrailScience.com, the visible exhaust from a jet engine, a trail of condensed water vapor called a contrail, resembles a missile trail when seen from some angles.
The confusion between a missile launch and a jet plane launch is caused by several common misconceptions, the site notes, explaining that the angle of launch, the direction of flight, and even the shape of the Earth can lead to the illusion. And indeed, when you look at certain images of jet launches, they do look a fair bit like missiles.

And you can go right over there to "contrailscience.com" and see an absolutely ELABORATE explanation of why this was a chemtrail. And everyone who doesn't think so is a hysterical conspiracy theorist.

Of course, COMMON SENSE tells us that if this was an airplane, wouldn't that be a very easy problem to resolve? Wouldn't a flight plan be on file somewhere? NORAD? FAA? Some agency somewhere? Don't we have an agency for that? I could have sworn we had an agency for that...

Also, the comments over there are very interesting. Just scrolling down a few we spotted this one:

Your explanation is very thorough and appreciated.
If it’s a plane — any chance you could comment on the air traffic notification;

KZLA LOS ANGELES A2832/10 – THE FOLLOWING RESTRICTIONS ARE REQUIRED DUE TO NAVAL AIR WARFARE CENTER WEAPONS DIVISION ACTIVATION OF W537. IN THE INTEREST OF SAFETY, ALL NON-PARTICIPATING PILOTS ARE ADVISED TO AVOID W537. IFR TRAFFIC UNDER ATC JURISDICTION SHOULD ANTICIPATE CLEARANCE AROUND W537 AND CAE 1176. CAE 1155 WILL NOT BE AVAILABLE FOR OCEANIC TRANSITION. CAE 1316 & CAE 1318 WILL NOT BE AVAILABLE FOR OCEANIC TRANSITION. CAE 1177 WILL BE AVAILABLE FOR OCEANIC TRANSITION. W537 ACTIVE, CAE 1176 CLOSED. SURFACE – FL390, 09 NOV 20:00 2010 UNTIL 10 NOV 01:00 2010. CREATED: 08 NOV 20:52 2010

And another little spanking further down:

So just to be clear…
The thesis here is that this was a jet at 30,000 feet which was heading towards the helicopter which was filming this. And that this jet must have therefore flown directly over the heads of these observers in a linear path. But that they failed to figure this out, as did everyone at the Air Force and Navy.
And when the object, seeming to get smaller (due to foreshortening, since it is actually flying towards the viewer) continues onward after its contrail ends — as it has when I’ve seen orbital rocket launches — you’re saying what is actually happened is a jet that is “out of the contrail-persisting region of air.”
Do I have that right?

Moral of the story:

• The government and the military will lie to your face.
• The news media will treat you like an idiot and cover for their pals in the government and the military.
• Disinfo agents will provide elaborate explanations without answering obvious questions.

Extrapolate.

Carry on.
