We've been over this.

The two marketplace hits were not characteristic of either cruise missiles or guided bombs, missed or not.

If you've been following this, the latest theory on the marketplace hits is that it was due to a misguided anti-radar missile.

Also, if you have been paying any attention, you would know that the warhead on a cruise missile is not armed until final approach, which is why the off-course ones crash with intact warheads and don't blow everything up where they hit. Nobody has been killed by an off-course cruise missile.

The current failure rate for cruise missiles is less than 1 percent.
