No, I can't conceive of that. Why would they have "defensive" missiles
pointed towards the mainland USA. If the airline strayed off its flight
path, I think they would have said something. And so forth.
No, I can't see any way that it would be accidental involving a missile
and they wouldn't tell us. I can see that some terrorists might have used
a missile (not a Stinger, but some other kind), and they're still looking
into that possibility.

Yes, I said how convenient this all was. Don't leave out the two bombings
in Saudi Arabia, the Vipers, Bob Starr and company, and now these arrests
in Washington state. Among others.
Personally, I think there will always be something they can capitalize
on. They don't need to create situations, just bring out the ones that
fit their agenda. Just like the black church hoax earlier this year.
