Rocket Fired At American Airliner In Texas?

Posted on Wednesday, June 3, 2009 by BZ

A commercial airliner pilot, once a military pilot, reported what he thought was a missile or rocket passing roughly 150′ beneath his aircraft, which was traveling at 13,000-feet near Liberty County, Texas on Friday, May 29th at 8:15 PM.

As you can see by the map, this area is generally northeast of Houston, west of Beaumont, and north of the Galveston and the Gulf of Mexico.

From the Houston Chronicle on Monday:

Liberty County Sheriff’s officials are expected to meet with the FAA on Tuesday to discuss what a Continental Express pilot reported as a “missile or rocket” flying near his airplane.

At first blush, examined by those with no inclination towards an inquiring mind whatsoever — like most so-called “journalists” these days, to include the staff of the Houston Chronicle — this is a seemingly inconsequential story best shuffled off to page B9, far back in the newspaper.

I should care to tear apart this story and reveal to you why it is a story with much implication, and why someone apparently did fire a missile at a domestic airliner on domestic and sovereign United States soil.

First, some persons may be thinking the so-called “missile” or “rocket” may have been someone’s idea of a prank; that is, perhaps, a type of “hobby rocket” fired by kids or enthusiasts having come near a commercial craft.

Wrong. Read the article. The incident occurred at an elevation of 13,000 feet. The missile streaked under the aircraft, missing by about 150-feet. This is not “hobby missile” territory.

Second, where did this occur? What’s near the area?

Oh, only the Texas portion of The Chemical Coast. The area is packed with various refineries and railroad tracks servicing said industries, to include numerous plants in Port Arthur, Houston, Texas City, Pasadena.

Third, information now indicates that Air France received a bomb threat in Rio de Janeiro a few days before the Airbus A-330-200 departed for Paris.

One commenter in the original article wrote:

Do you really expect Homeland Security to divert resources from the “Great Tea Party Investigation” to check on a possible missile being fired at an airplane? Are you kidding? Didn’t you hear how those radical right wingers want the government to be more responsible with our money? I’m sorry, but if Homeland Security needs to make a choice between tracking down possible missile launches or trailing minivans with a Jesus fish and a FairTax.org bumper sticker, I’m going to have to say the minivans are the priority.

Is no one in the media possessive of a curious mind anymore? Did our government learn nothing post-9/11?

The MSM/DEM DESERVES To Fold!

Further, this continues to prove the MSM is rife with bias and likely beyond restoration.

What issue now?

A question for you: did you read or hear of the MUSLIM who murdered an Army soldier and wounded another on Monday?

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) – A man with “political and religious motives” killed a soldier just out of basic training and wounded another Monday in a targeted attack on a military recruiting center, police said. The shootings were not believed to be part of a broader scheme.

You heard all about the man who murdered the abortion doctor; that’s been all over the media in every form.

But let a MUSLIM be involved in a PURPOSELY-COMMITTED MURDER against an AMERICAN SOLIDER on AMERICAN SOIL and the Mainstream Media shoves the information aside.

Even Breitbart, my source for this story, minimizes the fact that the murderer was a MUSLIM.

This, ladies and gentlemen, is a reprehensible act that needs to be publicized but was and is purposely being buried by the American media.

WAKE UP AMERICA.

This is just the tip of the approaching iceberg.

Couple these events with other internal struggles and I become more convinced, by the day, that another American revolution is indeed coming. I do not belief it will be brief and I do not believe it will be easily mendable. I do not know if it will take the form of violence, insurrection or simply protests and strikes. But I fear it is coming.

SCOTUS Nominee Sotomayor Quote:

Have you read this quote:

The Second Amendment applies only to limitations the federal government seeks to impose on this right.”

— Opinion of the court, including Judge Sotomayor, Maloney v. Cuomo (2009)

What does that sentence mean to you?

And moreover, what does the Second Amendment mean to you:

Right To Keep And Bear Arms – A well-regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed.

In my opinion, the Second Amendment is extremely clear.

However, as CNSNews points out:

(CNSNews.com) – Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor ruled in January 2009 that states do not have to obey the Second Amendment’s commandment that the right to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.

In Maloney v. Cuomo, Sotomayor signed an opinion of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit that said the Second Amendment does not protect individuals from having their right to keep and bear arms restricted by state governments.

America, the revolutionary writing is becoming more visible on the wall. You think your freedoms are immured forever in stone?

Perhaps you’d best think again.

P.S.

Unaware?

Mr Obama states:

– He was unaware that he was attending a church (for 20 years) with a racist pastor who hates America.

– He was unaware that he was family friends with, and started his political career in the living room of, a domestic terrorist.

– He was unaware that he had invested in two speculative companies backed by some of his top donors right after taking office in 2005.

– He was unaware that his own aunt was living in the US illegally.

– He was unaware that his own brother lives on pennies a day in a hut in Kenya.

– He was unaware of the AIG bonuses that he and his administration approved and signed into a bill.

– He was unaware that the man he nominated to be his Secretary of Commerce was under investigation in a bribery scandal.

– He was unaware that the man he nominated to be his Secretary of Health and Human Services was a tax cheat.

– He was unaware that the man he nominated to be his Secretary of the Treasury was a tax cheat.

– He was unaware that the man he nominated to be the U.S. Trade Representative was a tax cheat.

– He was unaware that the woman he nominated to be his Chief Performance Officer was a tax cheat.

– He was unaware that the man he nominated to be #2 at the Environmental Protection Agency was under investigation for mismanaging $25 million in EPA grants.

And he is apparently unable to verify the location of his birth and permanently place that query to rest.

This past Saturday night Mr Obama took his wife to New York and a Broadway play — at the cost of $24,000:

Taxpayers footed the bill for the big night on the town, which included a total of at least $24,000 for the three aircraft used to ferry the Obamas, aides and reporters to New York and back.

Dinner costs and orchestra seat tickets — at $96.50 apiece — were paid by the Obamas.

Obama’s jet, a Gulfstream 500, served as a more modest Air Force One for the day in place of the customary presidential Boeing 747.

The White House declined to say how much the trip was costing taxpayers.

Ah yes, Mr Obama, a Man of the People. And clueless. And societally Tone Deaf.
