Any ideas how this could have happened?
Chinese hacking into the system?
I’m sure there were lots of theories posted in all the threads here when it happened back in October.
;)
I wrote that as a possibility and erased it because I don’t believe they needed to hack. I do have some thoughts but didn’t have the nerve to post them as they’re kinda weird. :)
When things like this happen, having a white house occupant who wants to destroy the United States sure doesn’t help matters.
considering those that wrote the controlling software were from that area of the world, it’s not exactly hacking
more like... logging in
someone should really revoke all clearances to foreign nationals issued pre 9-11. once revoked, all systems should be reviewed (good luck spotting back doors... if they were any good, it’d be a massive headache to try and find)
and yes, some of the people writing the software that controls the missile silos are from asia. sound stupid? of course it is... what’s your point?
everything that fail under this admin just get covered up as its nothing. If GOP was in power, it be covered as a major scandal, national emergency
I think there are just too many coincidences piling up.
My uneasiness grows and grows.
BTW, I have the Dallas/Giants game on in the background. The stadium (Giants home) had a severe power outage, left it totally black and the game had to be suspended for 12 min. First the report said a generator outside the stadium blew, there was smoke in the air. Now the report is they have no idea.
What really struck me is that the sideline reporter said that when the lights went out, all the players hit the ground. Now why would they do that??? It it were me, I would just stand in the same spot until the lights came on or I knew what was going on.
And a generator for a football stadium???? I can’t believe they rely on a generator for lighting, but what do I know.
I was wondering why it wasn’t posted when I did a search. I guess they were all just under another heading. Silly me. I just got back last week after a few months in Ireland and didn’t access the computer except for emails.
America, devolving into breathtaking incompetence.
At least we know someone out there has missles that work.
Who is running this stuff? Barney Fife?
NP, just a little friendly ribbing. I never have any luck with search either.
Just another incidence that shows how far we have declined. That would have never have happened 20-30 years ago...
Kind of like Big Sis saying
the system worked
when the crotch bomber’s bomb didn’t bring the plane down thanks to the passengers.
The sighted missile launches in Phoenix and coastal California. The disabling of a cruise ship off of Mexico and today a fatal explosion at resort in the Mexican Riviera .
Not seemingly connected but makes me go Hmmm.

I agree “too many coincidences piling up.”
It won’t be the first time.
