Was the Cali Missile Launched by China?

Theres definatly a theme with the sponsers on the right hand side of that webpage. Guns, silver,crisis garden, make your own medicine,survival stove.

What do y'all know and/or think of this guy?

He's a nutter who makes Nick Felchco seem nearly rational. There is no way in fucking hell the Chinese would or could bring a nuclear powered sub 35 miles off our coast right by the second largest city in the country. Nuclear subs aren't particularly stealthy. It's diesel/electric attack boats that are so quiet.

None of the missile launch scenarios really make much sense to me.

If the missile has a 7,000 mile range there's not much point in bringing it within 35 miles of the coast. They could hit New York City from Hawaii and still have 2,000 miles left.

If it were indeed a Chinese missile, the point would be in making sure we saw it.

But i thought it was determined to be a jet contrail caught at just the right angle to make it appear to be a missile.

Besides....a Chinese nuclear sub chugging it's way to Cali wouldn't have made it 35 miles off without identifying itself and its intentions 500 miles out. That fucker would have been at the bottom of a sea trench...at least parts and pieces of it would. I'm sure half the Pacific Naval Fleet would have been massing for a trip to orient at about the same time.

No fucking way China has the balls to even think of that kind of stunt. I don't care how much they've progressed or advanced militarily. The U.S. Navy on its own might be adequate enough force to bring them fuckers to their knees by pounding them into submission.

I don't believe it was an airplane. I'm not sure I could believe it was a foreign country that close to our shore either. It seems like it was probably one of our own missiles. Either a mistaken launch or a test of some kind. If it was a mistake maybe the military made up the airplane story because they don't want it disclosed that an error like this happened. And if it was a test I don't know why they wouldn't just say so. It's still a mystery.

Uninvited guest: A Chinese Song Class submarine, like the one that sufaced by the U.S.S. Kitty Hawk

American military chiefs have been left dumbstruck by an undetected Chinese submarine popping up at the heart of a recent Pacific exercise and close to the vast U.S.S. Kitty Hawk - a 1,000ft supercarrier with 4,500 personnel on board.

By the time it surfaced the 160ft Song Class diesel-electric attack submarine is understood to have sailed within viable range for launching torpedoes or missiles at the carrier.

According to senior Nato officials the incident caused consternation in the U.S. Navy.

The Americans had no idea China's fast-growing submarine fleet had reached such a level of sophistication, or that it posed such a threat.

One Nato figure said the effect was "as big a shock as the Russians launching Sputnik" - a reference to the Soviet Union's first orbiting satellite in 1957 which marked the start of the space age.

The incident, which took place in the ocean between southern Japan and Taiwan, is a major embarrassment for the Pentagon.

It wasn't Chinese.

It was the same North Korean sub that torpedoed the Deepwater Horizon rig in the Gulf of Mexico.

Get your conspiracy theories together.

[Wolfman]

Maybe it was SSBN-731 with Gene Hackman at the helm sending off a warning shot to Cam Newton?

Attack subs can't launch ballistic missiles, dipshit.

And in other news, President George W. Bush announced the deployment of an additional 20,000 troops into Iraq with an overall objective to develop a "...unified, democratic federal Iraq that can govern itself, defend itself, and sustain itself, and is an ally in the War on Terror." The working title assigned to this massive increase of American troops into Baghdad and surrounding provinces is "The Surge".[/Dr. Evil finger-quotes]
