The planers keep trotting out the ten minute thing, no one has seen any 10 minutes of this. I think all any of us have seen is less than a minute. Pretty much dead on for a large missile from a distance.
You have just singled yourself out as a hateful and simple-minded individual with that comment. I'm sure you are not, but comments shot from the hip about "evil debunkers" and the likes are not only extremely insulting, but would get you laughed out of any reputable scientific circle.
I consider blind ignorance to be more evil.
"I knew it was a sub-launched ICBM from the first time I saw it. "
So you KNOW? I also tend to shy away from egotism and self-righteous people. I bet you are just more enlightened than the rest of us though, right?

The cameraman said he watched this for 10 minutes. Do you think the "Chinese missile" has such a different flight profile?

and it will take longer than 10 minutes to accomplish that feat.
So you are wrong, it can remain in flight that long.
Tell me, if it was a missile, why the hell is it going the opposite direction of the mainland and why the hell would one of our ballistic missile interceptors be launched from an area in the Pacific where there is no land and there were most likely no Navy ships. Further more, ballistic missiles do not have chaff or flare systems.
