If any country did see an unannounced mission, it may have made a secret deal with NASA.
Leave no straw unclutched.
"Hi, NASA? Yeah, this is the Kremlin. Can we have a quiet word?"
You're thinking inside the box like a good American. Maybe what we were told wasn't what was really happening. You should read Chomsky's analysis of the cold war.

On the domestic front, the Cold War helped the Soviet Union entrench its military-bureaucratic ruling class in power, and it gave the US a way to compel its population to subsidise high-tech industry. It isn't easy to sell all that to the domestic populations. The technique used was the old stand-by-fear of a great enemy.

The Soviets, with their own competing moon program and an intense economic and political and military rivalry with the USA, could be expected to have cried foul if the USA tried to fake a Moon landing. Theorist Ralph Rene responds that shortly after the alleged Moon landings, the USA silently started shipping hundreds of thousands of tons of grain as humanitarian aid to the allegedly starving USSR. He views this as evidence of a cover-up, the grain being the price of silence. (The Soviet Union in fact had its own Moon program).

Well, why did they keep faking the Apollo flights, I still don't understand. Did the Soviet Union know it was faked? Why did they keep shut up if they knew it was faked? 'Cause a lot of people would think they kept the moon race going to prove the U.S. was better than the Soviet Union. If the Soviet Union knew, why did they let the U.S. get away with this?
Well, I'll tell you - at the highest levels there is a coalition between governments. In other words, the Soviets said, if you won't tell on us - and they faked most of their space exploration flights - we won't tell on you. It's as simple as that. See, what Apollo is, is the beginning of the end of the ability of the government to hoodwink and bamboozle and manipulate the people. More and more people are becoming aware in the U.S. that the government is totally and completely public enemy number one.

But don't just take my word for it, for those who can bear to watch a Jarrah White video, even he concludes that the astronaut was close enough to brush it with his arm....

Direct quote from Jarrah White
"Now, admittedly, I've been fairly conservative in measuring the bodywidth by only including the width up to his shoulders and it's possible his left elbow was jutting out making the body wider. If that were the case, his elbow could have brushed the bottom right corner of the flag."
You only showed the first half of the quote to mislead people who don't take the time to watch the video. He goes on to say, "But this possibility hardly matters because, as we've seen already, the flag started moving well before he got near that corner."
Yeah that figures, you didn't see that the Chinese "bubble" was a piece of space debris expelled from the hold either
People can watch the clip and decide for themselves.

It's way too quick at normal speed to even see anything. Download it and slow it down. Actually please don't bother, you've dismissed this on countless message boards on the web already, you will never acknowledge this.
I kept the arrow on the corner and the corner never moved from the point where the arrow was.
The official story is that it was made of nylon. All you have is the word of the government.
His flag billowed when he ran past it, it didn't move before he got to it.
He didn't run by it as a forty five degree angle as the Apollo astronaut did.
You maintain that the Chinese spacewalk was real. That's all the evidence that's necessary to show that a poster doesn't even believe his own arguments.
Truly pathetic circular reasoning and backhandedly calling everybody liars. Your whole argument on that off topic issue has been dismantled on your debunking blog.
That was just obfuscation. Go look at the discussion where he had to answer questions.

He said some pretty lame things.
the person who made the video claiming the Chinese faked their spacewalk is a person who does not doubt the Apollo landings.
YOUR COMMENTS ON THAT PLEASE.
Maybe he was threatened. Some anti-establishment pundits have been saying some strange things. Noam Chomsky says that 9/11 wasn't an inside job.

He’s no moron so he was probably threatened. He had a lot of grandchildren that might have had "Accidents" if he hadn’t played ball.
Dylan Avery has changed his stated opinion on 9/11.

He was probably threatened.
Lauren Moret spoke franky about the dangers of depleted uranium in this two-part video; that must have been a real problem for the government as she was educating the people and exposing the government.

Here she is looking like a wacko saying that the earthquake in Japan was caused by the US government.

She had a daughter and probably grandchildren. Some goons from the government probably paid her a visit and made her "An offer she couldn't refuse".
When normally clear-thinking anti-establishment pundits start saying wacky things, they may be being threatened, or they may be sleeper agents. I would bet those people were threatened as their works were pretty devastating to the government.
to be continued...
