US tested new weapon, no meteor in Chelyabinsk – Russian LibDem leader

LOL! You guys don't know much about Zhirinovskym do you? The guy's a f*cking hack. Take Al Sharpton, make him white, make him WAY more off his rocker, and give him a drinking habit - and you have Zhirinovsky.

I see that reasoning.

I also think it's important for them to be able to test the defenses and response times of your greatest armed nuclear rival as well.

Too risky.

Besides, it's nonsense to suggest the only things that enter our atmosphere and sometimes impact the Earth are only ever man made objects and weapons effects.

Doesn't he believe in the asteroid belts, or comets either?

Where does he think the massive collections of meteorites sitting in museums and private collections come from, if only man made objects fall to Earth?

He's bonkers imo.

I think it was nothing but a space rock......but.....what caused the 500 kiloton shock wave the rock exploding or the sonic boom from the speed of the rock or both?
