Space-related defense research and testing remains heavily-budgeted to this day, irrespective of the program names, operative/reporting organizations, politics, or reports to the contrary in the press.[citation needed] Although it is difficult to compile actual spending totals across the complete spectrum of space-based defense programs (including classified "off-budget" "black projects"), the U.S. has certainly invested well over $100 billion on "SDI" and follow-on programs, and holds a commanding lead over all current or potential future adversaries in the realm of space technology/warfare

So a former general believes it was not a plane. The evidence (as discussed in other threads) says otherwise.

I served in the US Navy for 21 years. I bet my life on it that it was a missile launch. It came from out at sea and most likely was launched from a submarine. Seriously, how stupid can anyone be to believe that it was a plane or an amateur rocket. It amazes me how they insult the intelligence of the general public by saying they have no idea what it is yet it amazes me even more at how stupid the American people are to believe their story.

It does not come down to opinion but opinion versus facts; and those who's opinion it is that this is a missile launch do not have facts on their side.

but to me: a very aware and astute person, this (these?) do not represent any type of contrail I've ever seen (and neither do the chemtrail-contrails but that's another topic for another thread)
It comes down to this; when the 'word' is discussed in a "public venue" and broadcasted via the media, 3/4 of the minions' minds are automatically made up without even thinking.
