U.S. Claims Successful Hit on Faulty SatellitePosted on Feb 21, 2008

Now, if you want to hear a conspiracy, consider why the government waited until the exact moment everyone had their heads turned to watch the eclipse… Do you think any non-Navy telescopes caught the satellite event?

We may never need this type of arms but its good for some people knowing we can stand up to whomever thinks about trying to arm and shoot a nuclear missle at us. Why do i have to re-type what is in the box? ummmm talking about weird. Add Your Comment |
