For many planes that would be something in the region of 12.000m. According to Wikipedia this AA system has an engagement range of 12.000m and an engagement altitude of 6.000m. Now assuming it might be capable of reaching even 12.000m, it would still require the total engagement range to reach those heights. Which gives a window of attack equal to an area about nil around the missile launcher. So, even if someone is very, very unlucky to fly straight over one such missile launcher, it would still be sort of a miracle to hit a transcontinental plane flying at its service ceiling using the mentioned missiles.

Revolt of the Spooks:
"Intelligence held back from senior officials and the public includes numerous classified reports revealing clear Iranian support for jihadists throughout the tumultuous North Africa and Middle East region, as well as notably widespread al Qaeda penetration into Egypt and Libya in the months before the deadly Sept. 11 terrorist attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi. “The Iranian strategy is two-fold: upping the ante for the Obama administration’s economic sanctions against Iran and perceived cyber operations against Iran’s nuclear weapons program by conducting terror attacks on soft U.S. targets and cyber attacks against U.S. financial interests,” said one official, speaking confidentially. The Iranian effort also seeks to take the international community’s spotlight off Iran’s support for its Syrian ally." See: http://freebeacon.com/revolt-of-the-spooks/ |

Okinawa, Japan
His body was found shortly after, dead of course. At the risk of sounding extremely insensitive, the man was a complete moron. The waves are hitting the cliff up to like 10 feet tall, and you try to FISH? Even discounting the suicidal stupidity, how do you even plan to catch a fish through waves six times higher than your height? Really? Well, I guess next issue of Darwin Award got an extra page added to it.

A member of the House Science Committee says that the theories of evolution, the big bang, and embryology are all lies.
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/1...6pLid%3D216577 Quote:
I'm fine if many Christians don't believe in evolution, to their credit the theory has some weak areas, but to deny the science on embryo studies? And the world is not merely 9,000 years old. I know some Christians who believe the world is really 4.5 billion years old and that the universe is around 13.8 billion years old. You can acknowledge many things about science and still be Jewish, Christian, or Muslim.

Likewise, saying they feel God has the sole right to judge humans isn't very accurate to the Christian view (though it describes Judaism or Islam to a tee), as Christianity is built on the idea of forgiveness of sins. IE by believing in Jesus Christ, and seeking salvation through him(and by extension his church), you escape God's judgement. Though this somewhat depends on your denomination. In short, God isn't really a judge in the way he is in Judaism/Islam, because he loves you, and if you don't love him back, you're doomed to go to hell... |

Okinawans “Trying To Down Osprey With Kites”:
"Anti-American protesters in Okinawa have been flying kites and balloons around a US airbase in protest against the deployment of the supposedly accident-prone V-22 Osprey to the islands, in what critics suspect is an effort to deliberately induce an accident to better prove their point." See: http://www.sankakucomplex.com/2012/1...ey-with-kites/ |

Motherfucker has no right to be anywhere near a "science committee," except, what do you know, it's Congress. And to think the Japanese envy the power and "independence" (read: beholden to lobbyists instead of party) of our Senators and Congressmen. |

And there isn't any real way to show that you love it back because it is 100x more powerful than you, can create whatever you can give to prove your love for it and doesn't require anything from you. Other than you loving and respecting the rest of its creation, of course. That is why I love lolis, the purest and most innocent of all its creation - *gets struck by a bolt of lightning*

LASER STRIKES against US planes on the rise:
"Zap attacks now at 'epidemic' levels" "So what kind of jerk points a laser at a plane anyway? According to the Feds, criminals have been known to aim lasers at aircraft intentionally to throw off airborne surveillance, but those cases are relatively uncommon. Usually, plane- zappers fit one of two profiles: some are minors with no criminal history, while the rest are usually older men with "a reckless disregard for the safety of others." Although there have been no known incidents of an airplane actually crashing due to a laser strike, the FBI says there have been eye injuries, enough to make the current "epidemic" of laser attacks a serious threat to aviation security."
