#9 How do you know the ChiComs can't control the re-entry? Just because they said so? Would be great cover for say...blasting Taiwan. |

#6 I've seen some suggestions - 'Let's just shoot it down!' OK - a 21 ton hunk of uncontrolled metal traveling at 18,000 MPH. Some people are just too stupid to live. |

#5 I totally believe the booster is de-orbiting in an uncontrolled manner and has no maneuvering capabilities. I'm sure its fuel is spent. It cannot be controlled from the ground. Really. But if it could... what a great cover for a sneak attack. Or even a big Oopsie! Sorry about Chicago. Let's wrangle in court over damages for the next couple decades while you try to rebuild. |

#2 They can make a virus that killed 5 million people (so far), but they can't make a vaccine for it. They can send rockets to space, but can't make a controllable reentry. What's next? |
