WTF Stories of the Week

Again, perhaps.

But I do find it odd they were testing the Bulava a sub launched missile reported to "possess advanced defense capabilities making it nearly impervious to existing and future missile-defense systems".

While it's true some progress has been made, Russia is still generally pissed over the subject of missile-defense systems. So they just happened to test the Bulava a day before Obama was to arrive in the area. Ah, yeah. Sure.

The fact the missile apparently failed also leaves open the possibility they were rushed to get the test off.

Still it's just speculation.
