Subject: RE: BS: The only truly conservative nominee?

From the link:

"At 10:52 AM a 5" ZUNI rocket accidentally fired from an F-4 Phantom parked on the starboard side of the ship and pointed inboard. The rocket impacted an armed A-4 Skyhawk (piloted by then-LCDR, now Senator, John McCain) parked on the port side."

Am I missing something here? According to this account, McCain was a victim, not the initiator.
