You mean the BBC, don't you?Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree... -
Apparently the US routinely violated Soviet airspace in those days. Remember, it was "winnable nuclear war" Reagan at the helm and Andropov at the other. Sometimes I marvel at the fact that we made it out of the era with the world intact.
From what I read in the papers at the time, the KAL flight being used by the U.S. as a spy plane was not implausible.

The real problem is that names were not accompanied with physical descriptions or photographs.“It is no use trying to 'see through' first principles.

The ocean liner Lusitania. While it has never been conclusively shown the ship was carrying arms, it is probable that she was. Not just supplies, mind you--munitions. The Lusitania was blown almost in half by a single torpedo. Meanwhile, her identical sister ship Mauretania took over 10 torpedoes of the same time when it got caught in a battle and yet stayed afloat just fine...Originally posted by Zero

Besides, in the case of terrorists and maffia bosses, we can expect that police archives are outdated because of facial surgery."I have been reading up on the universe and have come to the conclusion that the universe is a good thing." -- Dissident
