The man was involved in detecting cruise missiles inbound to Hawaii. Should that concern any passenger? Does that have anything to do with the safe transportation of people through the airspace system? I really wonder if people even watch this stuff before posting.

No. In the aviation world, a near miss" means somebody had to do something to avoid an issue. Happens a lot, not like this incident at Midway, which was serious, but it is not unusual. The only thing that is different is that it is now politicized by lunes who have no background in this. Kind of like posting a link to some twenty year old who has no air traffic experience and is claimed to know something about safety. One thousand pieces of nonsense for anything of value, but that's what happens when ignorant people politicize things that happen every day.

Again the words near miss indicate that it wasn't a miss but it was very close to being a miss. Near hit indicates that a hit very nearly happened.
