Late last year I did the following posts on an incident that, according to the evidence, I contend is highly unlikely to be anything other than a missile missing an airliner which took off from Los Angeles International Airport last November 2005.
The posts were:
Missile Fired at Civilian Passenger Jet, Misses; MSM Mute
Developing Story: Missile Narrowly Missed Airliner in US in Apparent Terror Attack: Proof Here
Now the Northeast Intelligence Network has followed up with further evidence to add:
(Emphasis mine)
This week, ABC News World News Tonight ran a story about the possible threat of shoulder-fired missiles to commercial and passenger aircraft. In that article, reference was made to the incident involving American Airlines Flight 612 that departed from LAX last November, where the pilot reported seeing what appeared to be a rocket or missile narrowly missing his aircraft. According to official reports, it was determined that the pilot "most likely saw a hobby rocket" that posed no threat to the aircraft.
(NIN dismisses the "official" account and provides a link to its analysis)
Bolstering the possibility that the LAX incident was probably NOT a model rocket is Senator Barbara Boxer who serves on the Senate Subcommittee on Aviation. Stated Boxer: "We had a scare in Los Angeles. We've been told that they cannot rule out the fact that it was a shoulder-fired missile."

Here we have a senator with the Senate Subcommittee on Aviation declaring that they've "been told that" a missile cannot be ruled out.
Apparently the authorities aren't confident in their initial dismissal of the incident being a missile fired at the plane.
Wonder what next? Perhaps the authorities may later admit it was indeed a missile fired in a failed terror attempt?
Whatever we learn next, if anything, I continue to contend it had to be a missile. See my analysis at the posts hyperlinked above and think for yourself.
