“Wow. I’m impressed. Hope it’s true.

Now ...

The interceptors had bloody well BETTER work!”

_______________________________________________

I hope it’s true as well. I am sure we have the capability to do it.

It’s time to put on our “game face.” For some reason, NK is ramping it up ... and we have to crush it, like a person putting out a cigarette with his/her foot.

No one else will do it, apparently. Once again, the world needs the United States.

May God Bless America. We need your help, Lord.

As the storm hits Florida no less.

Yeah, being president is such an easy job. ;)

I still can hardly believe the president did this. He had a nice lifestyle and put himself into a firestorm, because he loves his country.

prior administrations have FAILED to promote STAR WARD from Reagan

That was one of the biggest mistakes the U.S. government has ever made. We should be on top of EVERYTHING... We have the brains, the money (except for that pesky debt and deficit! LOL)...and the manpower to get things like that done.

Either way, I’m in Orlando, so now I gotta bo buy even More bottled water.../s

LOL! Take care of yourself and your loved ones. Godspeed.

Your comment reminded me of when I was living in Denver, and it was New Year's Eve, right before Y2K. I went to the grocery store and bought everything I could possibly stock up on, including plenty of bottled water (because the toilet and sanitation systems were, of course, going to fail ;) ). I left with a hugely loaded cart and ran into a friend as I walked out. He laughed and said, "Are you doing a little Y2K shopping?" LOL! It was okay...we had food in the freezer for quite some time after that. :)

I wasn’t implying anything about Trump, just the timing of the Nork missile test the second poster mentioned. The fat one will attack when we are preoccupied with hurricanes.

lasers are ineffectual on an ICBM, I assure you of that fact.

However, the Navy is developing more powerful, second-generation systems which would bring more significant targets into its crosshairs: missiles.

Those missions remain classified. However, the commander and crew are very much aware of the potential capabilities. When we asked Wells if the current LaWS could shoot down a missile, he said simply “maybe” and smiled.

I don't man I've seen some weird stuff. Some guys at rocketdyne??? about five years ago showed me this 6 inch flying rocket cube - looked like a borg cube and they were flying it around in a chain link fenced cage. It had rockets that propelled and stabilized it.

The purpose of this dealie was to provide a super stable platform at incredibly high speeds so that .... then they stopped talking. But its so you can mount a targeting system that moves at mach speeds to paint the mervs (At least to my way of thinking)

The guys who go into the pentagons ultadark areas don't come back all - man we waste so much money. Oh they say that we spend tons but its not like they are upset. They do say - its good to be on our side.

South Korea has the winter games yeesh this will be attended like the Greek Olympics in what 2006.

Is the olympic committee as corrupt as FIFA or is FIFA as corrupt as the olympic committee. They both seem like quasi arms of UN. They seem as crooked as an Food for Oil program.

Kim probably bribed to the olympic committee so he can be all Dr. Evil during the games.

Everytime they do one I've noticed its announced on the radio at the top of the hour news.

I often wonder how do we know it worked. We could be getting lied to as well.

I think the reverberations would be sent down the chain and result in the defense contractor having some time on the struggle bus which would have to be explained to shareholders.

Have you ever heard of these missile tests failing?

I worked for the guy who was responsible for the 1 smart bomb going down that chimney in baghdad. Which prompted all the video war BS in the media. The rest didn't work so well - they've improved immensely. But it makes me wonder what is fact and what is propaganda

ok. Idont doubt you was what you saw but there is this propensity to boast of superior weapons systems and we cant even stop an ICMB going over Japan. That was the indicator right there.We didnt have a clue if that was going down there or EMP or what ever. It should have been destroyed and it wasn’t because we cant.Star Wars was the key and it was destroyed in favor of free stuff for parasites sao K street could make money and power.
