Let's not forget Limbaugh's vigorous defense of Kallstrom in the face of his obvious TWA800 lies. I point this out as 24-7 subscriber, former (due to now mostly working at client sites) frequent caller who was almost always put on the air, and many years fan of Rush.

Rush says Kallstrom is a trusted friend. I sort of feel Rush is a trusted friend, but when he's obviously wrong, I will call him out as I do here.

But I don't.

And you can't. But that doesn't surprise me given your past posts on this topic.

But you made a good point - the missile wasn't a heat seeker, so that gives info on what it could be - and what was needed to launch it. Thanks.

Which is what?

Obviously because it was radar guided to the center of mass (thus enabling the center fuel tank cover story, where that wouldn’t be possible with a heat seeking engine hit). But you made a good point - the missile wasn’t a heat seeker, so that gives info on what it could be - and what was needed to launch it. Thanks.

...

According to the NTSB, the very same air conditioning packs below the center tank, which helped make the vapor in the tank flammable by heating, would have been a viable target for a heat seeking missile.

It seems the engines would have been way hotter, though.

In my non-expert opinion I think an engine would be a more likely target, but the NTSB specifically said the air conditioning packs would have been a sufficient target, too.

My ears perked up especially when he mentioned there being a “fifth column” at work in government.

...and if pressed, I'd bet money he'd claim that they are white supremacists and patriot militias.

IMO, Kallstrom is a POS of the highest order.

The missile was seen by over 100 witnesses rising off the surface of the Bay probably launched rom a speed boat.

You really have no idea what you are talking about...but then again, that has never stopped you before.

The problem is that the website you link to provides no evidence whatsoever that such a weapon is or was under development. It gives some reasons, easily discounted, on why they think such a weapon would be a good idea but can't point to anything that supports its existence.

Did you see the video the night of the shoot down? If you didn’t you are blowing smoke. I watched the video before it went down the rabbit hole, no doubt in my mind it was a missile.

The Russians thought it was a good idea and have had it since 1982. That’s why I think the Russians did it.

If you are talking about the low-light video shot inside the military aircraft cockpit, I saw it also....and yes, it has gone down the rabbit hole!

I wish I could remember exactly what was said in that video. I only saw it once. But I do remember that they had an “Oh shit!” moment, though prolly not using those exact words.

It must have been on either CBS, NBC or ABC because at that time I did not have cable, so it was an over the air broadcast.

On several TWA 800 threads I’ve asked if anyone else saw that video. YOU are the ONLY one to have answered in the affirmative.
