It should occur to everyone that four and a half years is plenty of time to dub up some "special effects." As with ALL public releases having to do with this "administration," the timing is highly suspect. I'm not one of those who subscribe to the "missile hit the Pentagon" theory, but I don't think a 757 did, either...

Yeah, I had heard some months back that this was going to happen, and of course, the big question is, why wait almost five years to show the recently renovated portion of the Pentagram getting hit?
And why were those intial frames that were released so obtuse and elusive, along with the incorrect date on the bottom? They didn't stop showing footage of the towers being hit over fear of offending the public's sensibilities, that's nonsense; they routinely manipulate and exploit the public's sensibilities. No, they stopped showing it on cable "news" because there are anomalies within that footage that doesn't jive with the official version of events.
Irregardless of what hit the Pentagram, there remains numerous red flags re 9/11 that no one wants to touch.

C'mon guys, let's give the government some credit...After all, that kind of tediuos photoshopping isn't easy. I'm sure it took at least three years. Of course, after all that hard work they wanted to hold onto the video until just the right moment for release. Say...just prior to news of a Karl Rove indictment perhaps?
And of course they didn't want to influence the Moussaui trial. After all, they exhibited such judicious restraint with those 911 emergency call tapes and victims' families testimonies.
Geez you all sound so, so, so, I don't know, angry, perhaps?

Woah, I came in here intending to post something
expressing pre-emptivce skepticism about the video's
veracity, thought I'd be way out in left field. I don't
claim to know what happened at the Pentagon, because
the information is just not available, but I'm not prepared
to rule out any of the theories yet.

:crazy: Well Im not sure what to think NOW, untill I can actually see this for real, especially after watching CONFRONTING THE EVIDENCE: A CALL TO REOPEN THE 9/11 INVESTIGATION., (that had me totally questioning EVERYTHING this administration ever told was the truth, so I will remain as calm as possible till I see this then We can see if it can clear anything up for the millions of confused Americans.
The person that posted earlier are right though about this administration they are capable of anything.... .....Doctoring....ect.. If you want to see the CONFRONTING DVD special you can get a free copy of the dvd at the site: http://reopen911.org/index.htm or watch it at:

I'm certainly angry about it, but I'm also very puzzled.
If 9/11 is SUCH a cut-and-dried case, why are we unable to get all the answers?
If 9/11 is pure fact and not fiction, why are the facts pointing more towards an alternate scenario than the ones we have been presented with?
I guess we must accept that we WERE attacked, no matter whom or how.
What should matter is how we have HANDLED this attack since.
1.) We've not caught the perpetrator, because we would have heard about it.
2.) Our administration in their infinite arrogance deflected our righteous anger against the perpetrator and spuriously attacked a dictator of another country that had nothing to do with this crime.
3.) We have let the shadow of terrorism forever erode our civil liberties and nearly destroyed the very fabric of who we are as a people.
Luckily Americans have a deep-seeded distrust and disdain for government, so while it may take us some time, we eventually throw the bums out.
We know we were attacked, it doesn't matter right now who did it and why. What should matter to us now, is our response. And we MUST make the response clear in November if we have any hopes in turning back this blood-red tide of paranoia and fear.
Do I hear an "Amen!", brothers and sisters?

This had better be good. It better demonstrate how the plane hit flying only about 20' above the pristine lawn, how it burrowed through 3 concrete reinforced rings, how it only left a 16' hole, how the wings, tail and 2 nine-foot diameter engines obliterated into microscopic fragments. The plane better be white and not gray, since that piece of scrap (photgraphed in about 5 different places) was white with a red A on it.
If it's not crystal clear what happened, it won't change a thing.

On another blog the question arose, "How could a Boeing 727 (737?) plane make only a 12-foot wide crater in the Pentagon wall on both entry and departure?" Answer given: "The wings folded against the fuselage on impact."
Question: "Assuming this happened, and the width of the two wings were added to the width of the fuselage from that point backward, would this come to only 12 feet?" Seems to me it would be 20 feet, at least.

Sounds like it's a ruse. Just watched Pete Williams on MSNBC saying that all you're going to see is a "different angle" of those same still photos that were released earlier on - and of course ZERO mention of that incorrect date (Sept 12th!) at the bottom - and that you can see "the tip of the plane," but, he said, and this is revealing, probably not enough to satisfy those "conspiracy theorists."
Uh-huh. Exactly. Guess we'll wait and see...

As sad as it is to read the continual pro-terrorist, anti American discussion, it ensures my parties domination of American government.

I've been trying to think what Carl Rove would do to try
to do the most damage to the 911truthists.
And I'm wondering if releasing a fakey-looking video of
flight 77 would serve his interests: All the truthists would
get on board saying the video was fakey, and then the
Bushcists could say "See, that eholr bunch of loonies
thinks the Pentagon was hit with a missile!"

Go fuck yourself Ricky. And then read Paul Thompson's Timeline, and David Ray Griffin's two books on the subject. And then ask yourself: why did the Commission not address so many things, including the towers' central steel columns, the PNAC, Larry Silverstein's admission of "pulling" tower #7, and in fact, the Commission never even mentions tower #7 - a 47 story skyscraper collapses, the owner admits it was "pulled" on camera, and they don't mention it once in their findings. 9/11 was a false flag psyop needed as the required justification for further expansion of empire which necessitates rolling back civil liberties.
And forget about dems - why are members of former REPUBLICAN admin's lending their names to the 9/11 Truth Movement?

Jeff, the Truth Movement isn't about trying to prove what happened, it's about revealing omissions and implausibilities within the "official" version. And where there are lies and omissions, there is a cover up. Where there's a cover up, someone is lying. From there, it's the classic question of motive: who benefits, and why?
I'm unsure of what hit the Pentagram, although I fail to see how the enormous wing and tail span of a 757 could not leave impressions in the wall - which, before the roof collapsed later, had only a 16 ft wide hole in it.

CNN just aired it. They tried their damndest to tell viewers that they were seeing an aircraft hit the building, but in fact, the video showed no plane.
Jamie McIntyre was on hand to tell viewers that he was there that day and took pictures of the cockpit, pieces of the plane - etc. - but it was all a lie.
The video showed no plane.

Raytheon and 9/11
2001-09-11 Stanley Hall Raytheon Director of Electronic warfare program management. Raytheon did the retrofit of the A-3 that hit the Pentagon, where Bush claimed Flight 77 hit it. Disappeared on American airlines Flight 77, the one that supposedly hit the Pentagon but did not.
2001-09-11 Peter Gay Raytheon VP of Electronic Systems on special assignment at the El Segundo, CA division office where the Global Hawk UAV remote control system is made. Raytheon did the retrofit of the A-3 that hit the Pentagon, where Bush claimed Flight 77 hit it. Disappeared on American airlines Flight 11, the one that supposedly hit the North World Trade Tower I.
2001-09-11 Kenneth Waldie Raytheon Senior Quality Control for Electronic Systems. Raytheon did the retrofit of the A-3 that hit the Pentagon, where Bush claimed Flight 77 hit it. Disappeared on American airlines Flight 11, the one that supposedly hit the North World Trade Tower I.
2001-09-11 David Kovalcin Raytheon Senior Mechanical Engineer for Electronic Systems. Raytheon did the retrofit of the A-3 that hit the Pentagon, where Bush claimed Flight 77 hit it. Disappeared on American airlines Flight 11, the one that supposedly hit the North World Trade Tower I.
2001-09-11 Herbert Homer Raytheon Corporate Executive working with the Department of Defense. Raytheon did the retrofit of the A-3 that hit the Pentagon, where Bush claimed Flight 77 hit it. Disappeared on United airlines Flight 175, the one that supposedly hit the South World Trade Tower II.
These are not only the type of people but they are the people that would be assigned to UAV type projects involving Mode 4 and Mode 5 upgrades. Why would they be in Boston and those planes coming from that direction and from north of Manhattan Island?
That 16 foot tunnel through three rings of the Pentagon is only made by a directional blast weapon. Rumsfeld has even slipped up and mentioned the missile that hit the Pentagon.
Some have seen the Pentagon parking lot camera video and the white trail of smoke. Jets do now leave white trails of smoke at sea level, but Thiokol powered AGMs do, at all attitudes.

I just saw the "video" myself, and the CNN reporter just now said something that I wonder if anyone else caught.
She said it looked as though the plane hit the wall straight-on. It did not touch the ground; it did not drop from above at any kind of angle.
We're talking about piloting a rather large piece of aircraft such that it is able to smash into an area above the ground, yet not damage the roof. That can't be more than a 20-30 foot high target!
There is no way someone could "pilot" a commercial jetliner to just that exact spot. Especially not someone who supposedly came from Saudi Arabia and trained to fly jets.
He would have had to be a "Top Gun" at Miramar to pull off this amazing feat.
And I assure you, Miramar screens applicants better than anyone in the world.

Jeff,
Please refer to the website
http://911research.wtc7....essays/pentagontrap.html
for a better understanding of where we whackos are coming from. I don't know what happened to Flight 77. It probably hit the Pentagon. But there really are many unanswered questions from that day. The biggest question for me is the collapse of WTC7. See
http://911research.wtc7.net/wtc/attack/wtc7.html
and please do watch the available videos of the collapse at that link.
This website I am referring you to really does seem to have the most balanced perspective regarding the questions and the inconsistencies. It is hard to ask these questions. But to ignore them would be irreprehensible. Ricky's response is like many other peoples. I can only respond with "Thou doth protest too much."
I do want to say that questioning the official version of what happened was a gradual process for me. There is so much crap and disinformation out there discrediting those who have legitimate questions. Just refer to the family steering committee and they're questions.
This is a difficult topic. I understand your skepticism.

I have heard a number of times that Valerie Plame Wilson was working on WMD matters in the Middle East, and a couple of times I heard that she succeeded in stopping a shipment of something that was likely on its way to be the plant in Iraq.
Their numbers are so low that we can expect all manner of irritating and awful things to come from them now, including finally "finding" WMD in Iraq, including saying they're releasing proof of a plane hitting the Pentagon which isn't proof of a plane hitting the Pentagon. They know that just SAYING this stuff makes many, many people believe it.
Ricky, no typos today, and actual sentences in English. Have you been doing your English homework? Good boy.

where is the gas station video, or the hotel video, or the 3 videos from the dept of transportation on the highway. if they show nothing then why not release them. once again we are given the minimum info that had to be obtained through a law suit. think about that......the American people had to sue our gov't just to get this minimal info. All this video shows me is we will never see any of the real footage and will just have to settle for the minimum. To answer what happened to the passengers is to assume that we think like people who would do this. The proof of a cover-up is simple. Condoleezza Rice statement of how could we have known they would use planes as missiles is proof enough for me. If they didnt know it was a possibility why were they doing drills on hijacked planes hitting the pentagon and the wtc's.

The gas station video is probably the best video and the government seized it. Sure, we all want to see it to know for sure it was a plane but who really thinks it's a wise idea to release such a video to the world showing a succesfull attack by Arab terrorists on the military headquarters of the United States of America?
Maybe someday in the future it will be OK to release the video but not while we are at war with these scumbags should we release a video showing their greatest achievement.
Think about it.

Personally I think somebody's pet goat rammed into the Pentagon. At least that explains why there was no wreckage of an airplane found there. And, it's at least as reasonable as other explanations we've heard.
With Dubya in office we'll find all the details of 9/11 as soon a we find all the details of the Kennedy assassination.

They could easily splice together authentic video shot from the Sheraton, the parking lot, the gas station, the highway, and put together a good 15 - 20 minute demonstration that was irrefutable to 90% of any viewers, skeptical or not.
That they did not do that and threw us this instead speaks VOLUMES.
Anyone with any doubt left that 9/11 was an inside job is obviously constitutionally incapable of accepting reality.
What happened to the real Flight 77? Considering that the military jets were sent 150 miles out to the ocean before they turned around and headed west to "intercept" Flights 77 and 93, it's quite possible the real Flight 77 was shot down over the ocean.
Just like Flight 93 was shot down over PA.
Keep it simple. You don't need UFOs.

Jeff, the Bush administration has lied about so many things, and so consistently, that its credibility is forfeit. The issue isn't how badly a given terrorist hates the United States (most of the people who hate us are not terrorists, in fact), as you suggest. It's "Why doesn't the official explanation we've been given match the physical evidence?"
A Boeing jetliner crashes into the Pentagon just above ground level, piloted by someone who never flew such a plane before, makes perfect contact but leaves a 12-foot crater? Twin towers collapse in New York from damage near the top, which we're told by engineers has never happened before (heat rises), and a neighboring tower collapses without being hit. It doesn't make sense, and given that the Bush administration used this incident as grounds for invading a country it had already planned to invade (but without a ready excuse), who can blame anyone for being skeptical? It stinks to high heaven, and that's a fact, Jeff.
By framing the issue in "How awful are these terrorists?" terms, you simply echo the Bush administration's argument for invading Iraq. "We're at war (no we aren't)," "The enemy hates us (we didn't attack that enemy)," so, "Let's put common
sense and healthy skepticism on the shelf and go kill more people named Ahmad and Muhammad, because they want to kill us."
Oh, and don't question anything we do, even stuff that's against the law, because we're protecting you and we know best.

Jeff i am glad that you are seeking answers, thats what got me started in my search. now it appears to me to be obvious that something much larger happened on 9/11. you should search: probabilitites of cell phone calls being made from a plane at 30,000ft, 9/11 eyewitness.com, PNAC group/ the grand chessboard, put options on airline stocks, the hijackers who are still alive, sibel edmonds...etc. I dont really know what happened on 9/11 but i do know there has been cosistent cover-up. Oh yeah where is osama bin laden. If we were to capture him, the American peolple would be satisfied and say let's end this war. So with him "on the loose" they can continue their new american century. as long as bin laden isnt caught we all have a common enemy.

I don't know how ANYONE can honestly believe that "fire and structural instability" caused WTC7 to collapse. Even the 911 Commission knew better than to try to support that claim. They didn't even touch on it in their investigation.
BYU physics professor Dr. Steven Jones pretty much debunks that whole fire and instability nonsense.
In case you're interested. Check out
http://www.physics.byu.e...esearch/energy/htm7.html
Quite frankly though, it is probably a waste of my time to even post these links. Some people just aren't ready to go there.
Personally, I think WTC7 is our grassy knoll of today. The next generation will be able to analyze the evidence much more dispassionately. I think it just hurts too much right now for most people. Too bad though. Understandable, but too bad.

Popular Mechanics:
http://www.libertypost.o...readart.cgi?ArtNum=86989
Popular Mechanics magazine probably didn't worry about the ethical considerations of hiring a cousin of Michael Chertoff, a former Assistant Attorney General and the new Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), as senior researcher.
But the March 2005 issue of Popular Mechanics (PM) plumbs new depths of nepotism and Hearst-style "yellow journalism" with its cover story about 9/11. PM's senior researcher, 25-year-old Benjamin Chertoff, authored a propagandistic cover story entitled "Debunking 9/11 Lies" which seeks to discredit all independent 9/11 research that challenges the official version of events.
DOV ZAKHEIM:
The CEO of Systems Planning's international division, Dov Zakheim, is a long-time DoD and Republican Party insider, and a founding member of the Neoconservative cult. While Bush was still Governor of Texas, Zakheim became one of his closest advisers, counseling him on defense technology and strategic aspects of Middle Eastern affairs. After the 2000 "election," Rummy rewarded Zakheim with a low-profile but strategically important position --- Comptroller, i.e. head money man, of the Defense Department.
Zakheim also co-authored the Heritage Foundation's infamous tract, "Rebuilding America's Defenses," in which the Bush Administration's entire design for renewed global conquest was laid down a full year prior to 9-11. On page 63, the authors note that timely implementation of their ideas would require "some catastrophic and catalyzing event --- like a new Pearl Harbor."
see for yourself:
http://www.newamericance...dingAmericasDefenses.pdf
Dov S. Zakheim was sworn in as the Under Secretary of Defense (Comptroller) and Chief Financial Officer for the Department of Defense on May 4, 2001.
Left the Bush Administration in mid-2004 for Booz Allen.
How Does Zakheim Fit In ?
He helped mold the Mid-East policy, and controlled the Pentagon purse strings.
Thanks to him, Israel, and their militia (Turkey), are awash in F-15's, F-16's, and the latest in offensive and defensive missile systems. Israel has a space program, ICBM's, nukes, and lots more.
Zakheim, who is a dual Israeli/American citizen and a Shul Rabbi, has stalked the halls of US government for 25 yrs. He has set defense policy which influenced Presidents Reagan, Clinton and Bush Sr. and Jr. This rabid Zionist was the controller of the Pentagon when an audit discovered over a trillion dollars was missing.
Most of Israel's armament was obtained thanks to him. Squads of US F-16 and F-15 were classified as military surplus and sold to Israel at a fraction of their value.
Zakheim is a rabid Zionist, who carries an Israel passport and is considered to be one of the top members of the secretive Illuminati . He predicts 9/11 and by sheer coincidence the Pentagon is hit by a remote controlled jet (Zakheim's ' SPC ' corporation is the premier company in the field).
http://www.sysplan.com/Radar/FTS
During his tenure as controller at the Pentagon from May 4, 2001 to March 10, 2004, over one trillion dollars was unaccounted for.
Military information is jeopardized, military contractors billed the US for Israeli items, $50 million fighter jets are classified as surplus and the list goes on and on. As the scandal of the missing 3 trillion dollars surfaces the Rabbi quickly resigns.
Here's how it all came together:
http://www.informationcl...se.info/article11385.htm
Here's why:
On the day of the 9-11 attacks, former Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was asked what the attack would mean for US-Israeli relations. His quick reply was: "It's very good…….Well, it's not good, but it will generate immediate sympathy (for Israel)"
AND LESS THAN ONE MONTH LATER:
On October 3, 2001, I.A.P. News reported that according to Israel Radio (in Hebrew) Kol Yisrael an acrimonious argument erupted during the Israeli cabinet weekly session last week between Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon and his foreign Minister Shimon Peres. Peres warned Sharon that refusing to heed incessant American requests for a cease-fire with the Palestinians would endanger Israeli interests and "turn the US against us. "Sharon reportedly yelled at Peres, saying "don't worry about American pressure, we the Jewish people control America."

"IMHO: WTC 7 collaped due to fire and the structural instability caused by the collpase of WTC's 1 &2."
The seismic shock from the towers falling was something like 2.5 on the Richter scale. (There are of course theories that those were in fact explosions, but that is a whole other topic). Here on the west coast we have those magnatude shakes daily. Typicaly they aren't even felt. It takes at least a 3.5 or 4.0 - 10-15 times as strong - before you feel the ground shake.
WTC 7 certainly wasn't compromised by the towers falling.
The fire was fairly centralized in the building, so if it did in fact cause a collapse (which has never before happened in a steel structure soley from fire) the center of the building would have collapsed.
Watch the video recommended to you and you will see that at first the central portion drops slightly - enough to cause the end walls to tilt in slightly and then the whole thing goes down in unison.
That is exactly how they plan it to happen when the "pull" a building through the use of explosives. It keeps the end walls from falling outward and insures the whole thing drops into its own footprint.
I'm sorry, but right now I don't have time to find you links, but search for controlled demolition and watch the videos of professional companies demolishing various buildings. You will soon see a pattern which is repeated in the collapse of WTC7.

Jeff's question is a good one. None of you have answered that yet. I understand why you want to believe your theories: You hate Pres.Bush and his Administration. Therefore anything you can come up with against him is good for you.
I have thought before about why we don't see much of the plane at the crash site of the Pentagon. But I'm not a aviation expert and I don't think many here are either. Perhaps the incredible speed of the plane on impact put the aircraft panels into quite small pieces. Or perhaps the aircraft actually went into the Pentagon building and was covered by the building's pieces as what happened to the planes that hit the WTC towers. Those two planes, fully loaded with fuel for the long flight to California, completely disappeared into the buildings.
But WE (you all and I) don't really know for sure.
The fact is that the only people who know for sure are the people who went into the remains of that part of the Pentagon and removed the bodies and airplane parts. Ask them. Get them on TV. Get them on the record. Get your Senators and US Representatives to have them at hearings in the Capitol.
That's the only way to know for sure.

Why were planes flying around for a huge amount of time, and not intercepted per NORAD requirements?
How did 3 skyscrapers fall "free-fall" on the same day, due to jet fuel heat which isn't high enought to melt steel, and never happened before or since?
How did 4 planes vaporize on one day, never before, never since?
Why won't the Pentagon release the video's of the Pentagon they confiscated from the adjascent hotel & gas station, and why are the witnesses of these video's under gag order?
How did they find a hijacker's ID intact, in a place that was supposedly so hot it melted steel?
Why was there molten steel at the base of the WTC, and pouring out the sides before they fell?
These are just a few questions, can you answer them?

The problem with post #46 is that we all saw the planes flying into the WTC. We witnessed the tragic deaths of hundreds of people and the frantic search by loved ones. Showing the plane striking the Pentagon is something I think we all have a right to see. The Pentagon is supposed to be impenetrable. That's what we had always heard. Perhaps they don't want to show how vulnerable we are. But at least show stills from other angles that were confiscated. Something isn't right with the official story. I don't know what happened, but I find it hard to believe your proposition that a terrorist wannabe just needs to watch a grainy video of an airplane striking the Pentagon to become proactive in their cause. Dropping bombs on innocent people they know and love may get them a little riled though.

Conspiracy theories are not just for the government anymore.
The conspiracy theory that the 9/11 commission advances is good enough for many, but not for all.
But that particular conspiracy theory that the 9/11 commission put out has not convinced:
"Scholars for 9/11 Truth" (S9/11T) is a non-partisan association of faculty, students, and scholars, in fields as diverse as history, science, military affairs, psychology, and philosophy, dedicated to exposing falsehoods and to revealing truths behind 9/11" (link here, bold added).
Click on "Who are we" at the above link to see an impressive list of folk who are studying this subject matter intensely.
I say fair is fair, if the government has a conspiracy theory, then why not let scholars and scientists have a conspiracy theory too?

Plunger,
Only by chance did those French brothers capture the first WTC strike and of course, after that many cameras caught the second strike. That is what the terrorists wanted, our media to capture their evil deeds and display it to the world.
The gas station video probably shows very clearly another hijacked plane hitting the Pentagon. As I said, no way in hell such a video should be released now just to satisfy the conspiracy nuts.
The conspiracy nuts want EXACTLY what the terrorists want which is for the world to see a succesfull Arab terrorist attack on the military headquarters of the United States of America.

Firefighters said there was only a couple pockets of fire and should easily be controlled. Bush said he saw the 1st crash on TV and said to himself "now thats one bad pilot. Must've had a heart attack" Are you f'n serious? the wtc the mecca for a terroist strike gets hit (and they were doing exercises on hijacked planes hitting the wtc) and our commander in chief says to himself "must've had a heart attack" i dont think of W as an intellectual guy, but thats an absurd comment. So i ask the question: Did W see the 1st plane hit, 3 days prior to the release of the video? He also said the same thing 30 days later in a speech. So if he saw it then he saw it from video we arent allowed to see. If he didnt dee it then he lied, and if he'd lie about that why wouldnt he lie about the whole thing?

It is possible to pilot a low flying airliner into a compact target without touching the grass. Tens of thousands of airline pilots do it everyday, except they have the added burden of keeping the plane and passengers intact when they touch down.
Depending upon the composition and structural integrity of a building, it is not unusual for the wings of a plane to fold in --- even an airliner. Simple physics dictates that when the structurally weaker material impacts the structurally stronger material, the weaker material will give. The Pentagon Building performed as designed, with the damage contained to only one section.
At high enough temperatures, anything can be incinerated. When the force of an explosion is contained, the energy released basically has nowhere to go (beyond concussion waves); containment increases the force of the explosion within the contained area, further contributing to incineration temperatures.
There is nothing left of the passengers or most of the plane because they were effectively cremated.
While I wouldn't put it past BushCo to do something as evil as this, the are too many logical holes --- such as where was the missile fired from, without a considerable number of people seeing it in preparation? Where did the plane and passengers go? It is smart to question everything this administration does (or any admin, for that matter), but in this particular case the lack of photographic evidence does not conterbalance the physical and physics evidence. Occam's Razor would seem to apply here, IMHO.
What is truly perplexing is why BushCo has kept these photos under wraps. They are obviously addicted to secrecy; they're re-classifying documents (secretly, 'natch) that have been declassified, some available for decades, others broadcast nationa-f**kin'-wide already. That's some wacky paranoid sh*t.
It is more plausible to me that the timing of the release of photos can be beneficial to a prez whose rating have dipped into the 20's. Perhaps we will soon be seeing more '9/11 photos as Election Day draws near. In case we all "forgot" 9/11, as the repugs like to spew on hate TV.
As if.

Note that above - in the newly provided still frames which were broadcast on MSNBC, each of the two freeze frames clearly show the tops of trees behing the MISSILE.
The camera that this image is shot from is no more than 6' off the ground. A 757 would have completely block the view of the treetops in the background, even if it had been wheels down and parked on the lawn.
These images are proof that a missile struck the Pentagon.
Use your eyes. Use your mind.
A 757 fuselage is at least 20 feet tall - and the tail is closer to 40'
Do you see it?
No you don't.

Jeff:
re: comment 33 --
With your fantastic googling of Flight 77's passenger list, didn't you forget something very important??
Where is the 19-year-old Arab pilot's name that the feds claim commandeered this flight (his flight instructor, btw, said this 19-year-old couldn't fly a single engine plane) and approached the Pentagon by making a 270 degree turn (not at all easy for an experienced commerical pilot), flying this plane literally a few feet off the ground for the last several hundred feet and not badly messing up the Pentalawn or windows or spools of cable outside near the crash entrance, making no noticable noise while being only a few feet off the ground (well, except for the "official" 9/11 commission including the comments of Bobby Eberle, the Texas Repub who fronted Jeff Gannon who miraculously said he - Eberle, both saw and heard Flight 77), and, where are the large plane parts, the wings, the seats, the luggage, the body parts and the smell of blood (which no emt personnel reported) from all these passengers??
When the feds were sued under FOIA for the Flight 77 passenger list, guess what, Jeff, there were no Arab names on that list!! Oh, check your googled list and please point them out. Oh, and it must be a grand conspiracy of yours for me to think that the flight attendants didn't notice that the supposed Arabs who were on Flight 77 somehow were too busy to notice the names and faces on this flight somehow didn't match.

Occam's Razor:
One should not increase, beyond what is necessary, the number of entities required to explain anything
1) 757, flown by an amateur
2) 500mph... Just feet off of the ground
3) Most heavily defended airspace in the World
4) Not intercepted
5) AFTER the WTC already attacked
6) Hits the only part of the pentagon that is fortified
7) No clear film ever shown
8) 16' round hole through 3 outer rings
9) No damage to windows around hole
10) No airplane parts - as per 1st report: Fox News
Quite frankly its a much easier task to postulate how the bodies could have been "found" in the Pentagon, than to answer how a 100+ foot jet with 42 foot high tail section & 100 ft+ wingspan could disappear into a 16' hole!

"After the Pentagon attack, the video cameras and tapes at a nearby CITGO, the Sheraton Hotel along I-395 and Virginia DOT cameras were all confiscated by the FBI and they have yet to disclose any of the contents that were recorded by those cameras. Those cameras would have recorded what came in to hit the Pentagon and if viewed by the public, all the world would know that it was not a Boeing 757, American Airlines Flight 77, as we were told. All the world would know that Bush's assertion is in fact a huge lie. They cannot disclose those tapes without indicting themselves that it was the U.S. government and select "private sector outsourcing" that did the alleged terrorist attacks of 9-11. In short, our government would have to admit that it is al Qaeda and that this GWOT (Global War on Terror) is fabrication made up to provide excuses for a despicable U.S. energy and war policy."
There is the "mystery part" and no, it is not part of a 757 jet engine and never has been. Oops!
They are all jet engine components (past and present) on the A-3 Skywarrior twin-turbojet airplane and on older versions of the 737. The USAF only has a few of the A-3s left in operation and what was formerly Hughes Aircraft, now Raytheon, has a fleet of them at Van Nuys, Calif. This type of turbojet engine has never been used on a Boeing 757, so the debate on "type of plane" can end there. This is a jet engine component with fan, not an auxiliary power unit (APU) as some have speculated or dropped into the conversation as disinformation.
What has been interesting is the level of "content blocking" that there is on the Internet where specific information regarding certain "jet engine components" such as those shown at the Pentagon have definitely been blocked. Our team had to take steps to go around the content blocks to get at the photos you are seeing regarding these rotor hub components.
The above photo is a launch of an AIM-54 Phoenix Missile, air-to-air missile. Making this launch an air-to-surface missile would not be a great feat and Hughes/Raytheon manufactures several such missiles that would blow a 16-foot diameter hole in the Pentagon with ease.

Why was the steel from WTC immediately taken from the country without forensic science checking it? So many questions could be resolved yet the public gets no answers from an incompetent at the least or criminal government.
Richard Clarke made a wonderful comment Friday on Bill Maher, he feels this government is so incompetent they could not pull 9/11 off.

Brian,
I have not heard about gag-orders on the emergency responders and workers at the Penatgon. If the gag-order exists, then the Administration and the courts should explain to us why they can't tell their story.
I have not seen this new video yet (probably not until later tonight).
But IF today's video does not convince you, AND IF you want the Administration to release information that would convince you, THEN call on your Congressional represenatives and the courts to change those gag-orders (if they exist).
Plunger,
Thiokol may have more than one type of missle... The only one I know of are the solid fuel rockets used as boosters for the Space Shuttle on launch. They are not that precisely controlled. The Shuttle's systems does the steering on a pre-orbital insertion roll shortly after liftoff.
Which Thiokol Missile (model number or name) do you think it was, then?
Dan,
Hi Dan! Still think there were no people working in journalism then working at the White House then back to journalism and then back to the White House? Huh? I proved you wrong on that one. And you bragged about bagging me in that thread.... HA!
But I digress....
Some of your questions above are quite silly. However, some your questions are quite good. I don't know the answers and neither do you. But I can guess...
Perhaps a skyscraper never collapsing from fire had never happened before because none before had ever been impacted into before by a fully-loaded Boeing airliner flying at 500mph and freshly topped-off with enough jet fuel to fly all the way to California? Perhaps that large amount of fuel created a fire that was hotter than any other skyscraper fire that before existed? Perhaps the kinetic energy impact at 500mph and the terrorist pilot turning the wings at an angle just before impact damaged enough of those floors targeted to cause all (or most) of those floors to fall down onto the lower floors. Perhaps then the weight of those 3 or 4 floors could not be held by the weakened (by fire and impact) structure of the lower floor that it fell down again, and again, and again, and again, etc.
Perhaps the response time of the interceptor fighters was too damn slow and, I agree, should have been a lot faster. But I'm not a fighter pilot. The captain of Flight 77 was when he was in the Navy.
Charles Burlingame, 1949-2001. Captain, USNR (Ret)
Perhaps 4 planes "vaporized" on one day and never before because never before had such a terrorist attack occured before! Or had you not thought of that!
Perhaps the WTC#7 fell because of the thousands of pieces of WTC #1 & #2 that fell on it, plus the fire. It was like thousands of wrecking balls hitting the building. When we watched the events that day, don't you remember seeing large girders falling?
Perhaps the video today is a blur in part because the plane was travelling at 500mph? Or had you not thought of that either?
I think all the known videos should be released, but Jeff points out that there must be some security reasons for not.
But, hey, I'm a computer programer and applications developer. I'm not a structural engineer or scientist and I don't play one on the internet. Are you? That's why I say "perhaps" instead of stating for sure like you and your friends do.
Your point about the ID is a good one. I had never heard that one before. Perhaps it blew out a hole of the plane on impact so therefore did not get burned?
Perhaps a person above here is right that this has become the "grassy knoll" of our time.
Have a nice day!

Look at the CNN video again Dave posted again. They show "aftermath" but NO where is there a plane or any hole resembling it in the first segment (before the roof collapse.
What Judicial watch SHOULD have asked for was the confiscated Video from the gas Station across the street AND the Hotel video from across the way in clear view of the supposed crash.
Where are those? And what were a bunch of suits doing combing the grounds for in a line? Why were their suddenly all these workers lifting stuff out in trash bags.
I live closer to the Pentagram, just north of Baltimore/DC (I like that, whoever said that). That is what is now is. And a number of people here who KNOW the Pentagon, question what did and did not happen there. People I know that worked there at one time.

a diversionary tactic designed to get the populous to focus their attentions elsewhere. A "terror alert"
if you will,.. a grand PSYOPS plan that has an ulterior motive - for those of you who claim that the actions of the bush administration are illegal and dictatorial with the explicit intent to shred the US Constitution - remember the act of terror,..
bush had all the justification in the world to do what he has done,... his only motivation here was to
"PROTECT" this country from vicious,.. vindictive,..
horribly violent "TERRORISTS"
Here is the PSYOPS PLAN-
New Pentagon 9/11 video to be released,..
(see how forthcoming GWB is)
(His intent is not to conceal)
Make a bowl of popcorn

(which reveals nothing new - no new evidence ! )
"AND DRINK YOUR KOOL-AID"
Same shit,.. wrapped up in a new 5lb bag.
Conceal,.. divert,.. withhold,.. bend,.. twist,.. and
muddy the waters some more.
This concealment of 9/11 evidence is reminiscent of the JFK file of evidence.
This government only tell you what it wants you to know,... the information that is released is highly suspect. Put each/all/every piece of evidence on the table,... allow historians to analyze and critically review the evidence in totality,... then allow public review of these independent reports.
The government has repeatedly proven it's self
incapable of NOT contaminating the the evidence review process.
JFK - Zapruder film - evidence of potential tampering:
Richard J. DellaRosa 9 The Great Zapruder Film Hoax
ASSASSINATION RESEARCH / Vol. 3 No. 2 © Copyright 2005 Richard J. DellaRosa
When the alterations were made to the Zapruder film is not clear. There appears
to be concurrence by the authors that some were done the very weekend
of the assassination. But since the film was withheld from the public for some
twelve years, there is no way to know when and where other modifications were
accomplished. This all nets out to the authors’ assertion that the extant
Zapruder film is not an authentic representation of what occurred in Dealey
Plaza on 22 November 1963. It does not concur with the descriptions of the
closest eyewitnesses. It is not merely an altered film, but a total fabrication. In
fact, the extant film may have been constructed using not only Zapruder’s film,
but other films taken that day. This may account for Zapruder choosing such a
poor POV—he may have been a decoy intended to distract attention from other
cameramen concealed nearby.
For a relatively small cadre of researchers, the Zapruder film alteration issue is
moot. They have seen another film of the assassination—a better quality film. A
description of it is reproduced in Appendix E of this book. These fortunate folks
have seen a film which closely matches the eyewitness accounts, and is very
different from the extant Zapruder film. This “other” film shows the limousine
turning from Houston Street onto Elm Street; it shows the limousine coming to
a full, yet brief, stop; it shows a man stepping into the street with fist raised—
possibly a signal for the driver to stop; it shows two shots to JFK’s head from
two directions; and it shows a shower of brain particulate violently sprayed to
the left rear.
It is important to note that none of the people who claim to have seen this film
ever did so in the presence of any of the others. Nor did they view it in the same
geographic location. Yet their descriptions of what they saw in the film match
identically. For them, there is no question that the extant Zapruder film is a
fabrication, part and parcel of a massive cover-up of the assassination of President
John F. Kennedy.

Notice how that got a few minutes of coverage the day of the incident but has been quickly forgotten by all major media. We have Rumsfeld on the spot the have to explain how his response to the former agent was "I NEVER SAID THAT" and quickly proven to be a liar with video footage of him saying those EXACT words, and try to remember Bush ran on the campaign of accountability. Yet everyone in charge of anything on 9/11 has received promotions.

I have seen the tape like lots of you. I fail to see ho wit proves anything one way or the other. A blurry image does not an aircraft make. I agree with the folks who are skeptical about the conspiracy though---what happened to the passengers? These may not be pictures of passenger aircraft, but one surely crashed and killed those souls that day.

We're all Americans and we need to pull together to save our Republic. When I tell you that a plan is in the works for Cheney to lead an attack against Miami, New Jersey, LA, and most likely Atlanta (to taint the money supply) - using multiple jumbo jets into nuclear reactors...don't just blow it off without some serious consideration.
This is WILD CORNERED ANIMAL STAGE, and these criminals do not want to go to the Hague for their War Crimes.
As for the Raytheon unmanned missile experts who died on 9/11 on multiple different aircraft...can we all agree that this is NOT A COINCIDENCE?
I mean really.

I'll start off by saying that I'm a huge fan of this site, and I dread every extra day the Republicans in charge get to maintain control of the government of the most powerful nation on Earth. I'll also add that my own mother sent me some links to the "911 truth movement" and a movie some guy made about all of it; I watched the whole thing ,too.
Now, I need to follow this up by telling everyone that thinks 9-11 was an inside job that you're waay off the deep end. Settle down, have a relaxing ice tea, and try not to let all the ridiculous assertions out there drown out your common sense.
Apparently, as with all conspiracy theories, everyone seems to think they're an expert. Well, if you follow the link above, you get to see what a REAL expert (a professor on materials engineering at MIT) on this subject sounds like; I'm not an expert myself, but as a Berkeley mechanical engineering grad, I can recognize a valid set of arguments when I see one.
In summation, there is no good reason to think the towers fell from a controlled demolition. Though the steel would not have melted at the temperature present in the fires, it would definitely have lost strength (at high temperatures, the crystal structure of steel can change, though the material remains solid). On top of that, there would be possible buckling in the columns due to uneven heating (the stresses created internally within an object when portions expand under significant heating can be very large). Between the combined effects of buckling and loss of column strength, it's very likely that the redundancies built into the structural design were finally overcome. At that point, the section above the struck floors would topple onto the lower structure. Due to the fact that the internal beams of the lower floors were meant to hold only the floors' own weight (with some extra safety factor allowance ... one that would not match the weight of 1/4 of the building), the collapsing portion of the building would bust through the floors below it with relatively little trouble. The effect would be slower than freefall, but not perceptibly so (the lower floors collapse too quickly to exert a prolonged impulse of force on the falling bodies, meaning there's basically too much mass falling to slow it down).
There you have it, 2 collapsed buildings from a pair of plane collisions. I'm afraid I don't know much about building 7, but honestly ... the application of Occham's Razor to this subject says that when a humongous catastrophe has just toppled two gigantic buildings, sending carnage everywhere in the neighboring area, it's most likely that structural damage of some sort did the building in. Anyone that would naturally think something else, without significant REAL evidence, is swimming out past the shores of reality.

Yeah, that definitely shows something that might be a plane hitting a building.
And I saw a movie last night where a space shuttle landed and skidded under several bridges.
Sorry, I don't have all of the answers, but that video is by no means cut and dried proof of anything.
There are too many contradictions in the 9/11 conspiracy stories put forth by the government, I'm just not buying what they're selling.

I'm sorry, but whatever is making that silver streak is in no way half the height of the building.
Not to mention that the Pentagon being the most surveilled building on the planet should have some other angles of this video that definitively show the object in question.
Hell, maybe the video tapes the FBI confiscated from the security cameras at the Marriott and gas station across the street might yield a better view?

Several people have mentioned the "grassy knoll" of J.F.K./assassination fame. Because of the insistence on the part of the mainstream (corporate) media that Oswald acted alone, which conforms to L.B.J.'s directive to the Warren Commission ("Oswald acted alone, make sure you reach that conclusion"), the Zapruder film has more or less faded into historical obscurity.
The Zapruder film proved CONCLUSIVELY that the fatal shot that struck Kennedy came from 2 o'clock relative to the Book Depository (Oswald's location).
J.F.K.'s head was blown open and his brain matter sprayed leftward (on top of Jackie). Unless the laws of Newtonian physics have been repealed, that means the fatal shot did not come from Oswald's rifle or from the Book Depository.
That's the simple truth, folks. You can kick it around, spit on it, urinate on it, debate it, do anything you want with it. But it remains the truth.
Does this prove a cover-up regarding 9/11? No, but it proves that governments can't be trusted to tell the truth. Including the U.S. government. Sorry if that makes me a traitor, trolls.

I haven't seen the area, so I don't know if that is even feasible, but it is surely more feasible than flying a 757 on a flat trajectory at 6' off the deck having just cleared a roadway that is higher than this flight path...HAVING NEVER FLOWN ONE BEFORE.

Ari and Mike J,
You really cannot dismiss the collapse of WTC7 with such ease. It IS the smoking gun on 911. That's why the 911 commission refused to investigate it. Please refer to this website and watch the videos of the collapse.
http://911research.wtc7.net/wtc/attack/wtc7.html
Then compare that collapse to the remains of the other surrounding buildings. Look at the info on WTC6
http://911research.wtc7.net/wtc/attack/wtc6.html
which had raging fires throught the building and extensive damage from falling debris. It did not collapse in one smooth fall. It is broken up and parts remain standing and others destoyed - in other words, it fell just like one would expect a steel frame and concrete building to fall under such circumstances. Clearly, WTC7 was demolished. Why? Just start there. If ANYONE can give me a good explation (and I do want one) for that building collapsing the way that it did, then I will stop screaming foul. So far, no one has.
And don't even try the fires and debris argument. That has been so refuted. Like I said, even the 911 Commission knew not brush it under that carpet.

Flight 93 was an integral part of the very successful mass hypnotic induction that took place on 9/11.
Steps to hypnosis
1) Willingly hypnotizable subjects - stage hypnotists always pick the first people to raise their hands, basically everyone who voted for Bush in 2000.
2) Focussed attention - first plane hits, everyone turns on TV, pays rapt attention, just like watching a pendulum.
3) Rapid induction - sudden shock of watching 2nd plane hit generates immediate altered state of consciousness.
4) Trance deepening - usually done by having the subject walk down a flight of stairs in their mind, on 9/11 repeated news reports of people running down the steps in the towers, then followed by the actual towers coming down, repeat on TV as often as possible to further deepen trance all afternoon.
5)Hypnotic suggestions designed to create desired state of mind - in this case fear, by showing pictures of 19 scary terrorists and spreading story of heroic passengers fighting hijackers.
6) Test depth of trance - usually done with a pin to check numbness of skin, on 9/11 done with collapse of WTC 7.
7) Post-hypnotic suggestion - at mention of 9/11 will squawk with fear, rather like a chicken, minus the silly arm flapping, substitute flag waving instead.
8) Reinforce trance at later date - use fake news stories and movies like Flight 93 if some people start to wake up and discover the truth. Stage another false flag terrorist attack if poll ratings drop too low and there is talk of impeachment.

Autopsy: No Arabs on Flight 77
By Thomas R. Olmsted, M.D
http://www.sierratimes.c...2/article_tro.htm...
I am an ex Naval line officer and a psychiatrist in private practice in New Orleans, a Christian and homeschool dad. It troubled me a great deal that we rushed off to war on the flimsiest of evidence. I considered various ways to provide a smoking gun of who and why Sept 11th happened. Astute observers noticed right away that there were no Arabic sounding names on any of the flight manifests of the planes that "crashed" on that day.
A list of names on a piece of paper is not evidence, but an autopsy by a pathologist, is. I undertook by FOIA request, to obtain that autopsy list and you are invited to view it below. Guess what? Still no Arabs on the list. It is my opinion that the monsters who planned this crime made a mistake by not including Arabic names on the original list to make the ruse seem more believable.
When airline disasters occur, airlines will routinely provide a manifest list for anxious families. You may have noticed that even before Sep 11th, that airlines are pretty meticulous about getting an accurate headcount before takeoff. It seems very unlikely to me, that five Arabs sneaked onto a flight with weapons.
This is the list provided by American of the 56 passengers:

Resurrected Hijackers
Several Suicide Hijackers Later Turn Up Alive in the Middle East
Of the 19 alleged hijackers identified by the FBI, at least six turned up alive after the attack. The FBI's identifications included names, photographs, and, in several cases, other personal details --- all of which matched the six persons who surfaced after the attack to proclaim their innocence.
Abdulaziz Alomari
Abdulaziz Alomari was identified by the FBI as the hijacker who accompanied Mohamed Atta from the connecting flight from Portland and helped him hijack and pilot Flight 11 into the North Tower. Abdulaziz told the London-based Asharq Al-Awsat newspaper: "The name [listed by the FBI] is my name and the birth date is the same as mine, but I am not the one who bombed the World Trade Center in New York." 1 Saudi Embassy officials in Washington defended the innocence of Alomari, saying that his passport was stolen in 1996 and that he had reported the theft to the police. 2
Saeed Alghamdi
Saeed Alghamdi, a Saudi Airlines pilot, was identified by the FBI of being a hijacker of Flight 93, which crashed in Pennsylvania. Alghamdi was "shocked and furious" to learn this three days after the attack, noting that his name, place of residence, date of birth, and occupation matched those described by the FBI. "You cannot imagine what it is like to be described as a terrorist - and a dead man - when you are innocent and alive," said Alghamdi, who considered legal action against the FBI. 3
Salem Al-Hamzi
Al-Hamzi was identified by the FBI as one of the hijackers of Flight 77, thought to have crashed into the Pentagon. Al-Hamzi said: "I have never been to the United States and have not been out of Saudi Arabia in the past two years." 4
Ahmed Al-Nami
Al-Nami was identified by the FBI as one of the hijackers of Flight 93. Al-Nami said: "I'm still alive, as you can see. I was shocked to see my name mentioned by the American Justice Department. I had never even heard of Pennsylvania where the plane I was supposed to have hijacked." 5
Waleed Alshehri
Waleed Alshehri, a Saudi Arabian pilot, was identified by the FBI as one of the hijackers of Flight 11. Alshehri turned up in Morocco after the attack where he contacted both the Saudi and American authorities to tell them he was not involved in the attack. 6 7
Abdulrahman al-Omari
Abdulrahman al-Omari, a Saudi Airlines pilot, was identified by the FBI as one of the hijackers of Flight 11. After learning this, he visited the US consulate in Jeddah to demand an explanation. 8
Ameer and Adnan Bukhari
Ameer and Adnan Bukhari were named by CNN as suspected hijackers of Flight 175, the jetliner which crashed into the South Tower, in an article dated 9/13/01. In a correction, CNN stated that Ameer Bukhari died in a small plane crash in Florida, and that Adnan was still alive in Florida, having passed a polygraph test to confirm his innocence. 9

Karl Rove INVENTED the White House Iraq Group (WHIG) for one purpose. TOTAL MESSAGE CONTROL.
Rove is a genious...an evil genious.
He can only be effective when he knows literally everything. He is the REALITY CREATION ARCHITECT.
At any given time he can take a set of actual facts and use each of them to stitch together a totally false reality.
Rove knew that the truth was the enemy of their conspiracy to conquer the Middle East (the PNAC plan). His job, every single day, is to convince you, me and the rest of the world that you didn't just see and hear what you just saw and heard...or if you did, it doesn't mean what your logical mind is attempting to tell you - because "we're in a post-9/11 world now" and black is white.
Karl Rove is the single most destructive force in the US Government...the enabler of the entire evil scheme...THE ARCHITECT.
The scheme includes 9/11 as the essential pretext. "9/11" ... how clever, Karl! Only someone with American sensibilities would select the number we have all memorized to call in the event of life threatening emergency as the date for this evil....
KARL ROVE.
The war plan to invade Iraq was written BEFORE 9/11. The Secret Energy Task Force meetings that Cheney had with Ken Lay and the other OIL HOGS during which they all decided how to divide up the oil fields of the Middle East...all of that was BEFORE 9/11.
Now you see why Cheney insisted the substance of those talks remain SECRET.
All of their schemes and conspiracies REQUIRED 9/11 as the essential trigger.
Cheney outsourced the implementation of the FALSE FLAG OPERATION to Mossad...the FALSE FLAG experts. This explains why over 200 Mossad agents were operating in the United States prior to 9/11. This explains why five of them were arrested, having been observed filming the planes hitting the towers and their subsequent collapse - celebrating our worst nightmare.
9/11 was not a bad day for those involved in the Conspiracy. It was their shining moment...their PRETEXT.
One of them washed out...couldn't cope with the guilt. Ari Fleisher had to be replaced, and disappeared. Not dead, but out of sight.
The outing of Plame was designed to destroy the best WMD intelligence the US had at its disposal regarding Iraq. Plame knew for a FACT that Iraq had no WMD. It was HER JOB to know. Therefore Rove perceived Plame (the truth) as his WORST ENEMY, and conceived of a plan to silence her. Rove is the individual who insisted that Wilson be sent to Niger.
GUARANTEED.
This was the only way to launch a smear program which appeared to be aimed at Wilson, but was intended solely to shut down the entire Brewster Jennings operation and bury their WMD evidence.
THAT IS ALL ROVE.
He invented WHIG:
The group's members included Rove, Bush advisor Karen Hughes, Senior Advisor to the Vice President Mary Matalin, Deputy Director of Communications James Wilkinson, Assistant to the President and Legislative Liaison Nicholas Calio, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, National Security Advisor Stephen Hadley and I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby.
Every single one of these individuals is a co-conspirator in a concerted effort to defraud America into committing its troops and its treasure to invade a foreign country to the sole benefit of BIG OIL AND ISRAEL.
The pending invasion of Iran is the next phase of the very same conspiracy. Karen Kwiatkowski let us know that Larry Franklin had set up an IRAN desk in the midst of the Pentagon's IRAQ planners. Larry Franklin has pled guilty for passing Top Secret Iranian Intelligence to AIPAC (Israel). Israeli Generals were free to come and go from the Cheney/Rumsfeld Office Of Middle East Invasion whenever they pleased, without need to sign the guest register.
IT'S ALL THE SAME CONSPIRACY.
9/11 - Afghanistan - Iraq - Iran - Syria.
READ THE PNAC.
A "New Pearl Harbor" was a REQUIREMENT for its implementation.
Rove is running the entire PsyOps Machine to enable it.
Hang them for TREASON.
http://dailydocket.blogs.../2006/01/propaganda.html
But whereas Hitler was a true master of propaganda, and his minister a far less talented functionary, today the situation is reversed: our propaganda minister is the master, and our leader his functionary. Karl Rove is so confident of his strategy that he now announces it to the public! In January of this year,
Rove noted that we face "a ruthless enemy" and "need a commander in chief and a Congress who understand the nature of the threat and the gravity of the moment America finds itself in."
Here's more:
"[T]he people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same way in any country."

Griffin's argument has not been refuted.
The physical evidence and the testimony from engineering experts (including the Brigham Young professor) support Rev. Griffin. It isn't enough to say, "I believe the government." Not when that government has proven itself to be a liar on numerous occasions before and since 9/11.

This is just one website that I found on the matter of Flight 77, within a minute or two of searching on Google. I can't say I know much about the source, so I can't 100% guarantee he's not lying ... but then again, where can you do that on the Internet?
The most important point the link makes is that there is no shortage of eyewitnesses who saw a plane flying very low towards the Pentagon that day (it's a shame those eyewitnesses aren't given more exposure to put to rest ridiculous theories). Just as telling is the claim that there have been no eyewitnesses who identified a missile ... there were just people who likened the plane, metaphorically, to a missile as it neared its final trajectory.
Furthermore, if one were to look further into the damage done to the building, one would find that there is evidence of a collision of the wings with the lower floors of the building. I'm afraid I don't have a link handy, but 5-10 minutes of searching should turn up a website with pictures of the lower floors (they do exist) showing significant external damage. Why did they not tear holes in the walls? Well, aircraft wings are not particularly bulky, and my guess is that they were constructed as a hollow shell, like the wind turbine blades I work with. While the wing is intact, is can bear heavy aerodynamic loads quite well. However, like a coke can with a dent on its side, an unusual impact, like against a steel-reinforced concrete structure, can leave it crumpled and shattered. The fuselage, however, can do significantly more damage because it consists of significantly more mass and has the hardest portion of the plane on its underside (in addition to producing an explosion from its stored fuel). The damage done to the Pentagon building, supposedly 16ft in diameter, would fit with the size of the fuselage ... roughly 12ft (trunk diameter of a 757 is 3.76 meters). Regarding the notion that more of the building should have fallen apart, and that 4 rings of the Pentagon would be too much for the plane to penetrate, I'll just say that I don't know the details of the Pentagon's construction, and neither do you, and neither do your sources on the Internet ... but to me as an engineer, it seems plenty plausible.
I see some people writing that the image in the video is a missile, but I fail to see how they can claim that from the fuzzy footage. That they don't discern the wings is almost meaningless, considering that the wings are very narrow and do not project visibly from the plane body at the angle shown.
Really, the silliest thing about the missile theory is that we have definitive proof that the WTC buildings were struck by 757 airplanes. In the absence of REAL evidence of a missile strike, or something else other than a 757 striking the Pentagon, and with consideration of the missing flight and passengers, and the evidence we have for a plane strike (however faulty it may be), the clearly logical conclusion is that it is vastly most likely that flight 77 hit the pentagon.
There may be some significant details about a botched response to the events of 911, or about a failure to adequately guard against it, or about the abuse of mishandling of evidence and footage surrounding the events ... those issues are fine and productive to explore, and if you think there's been government abuses/failures there, I'm all for listening to you, because I don't trust this administration either. However, this "Inside Job" crap just makes its proponents and everyone they're associated with look bad when they actually take up a cause with some merit.

Just look at all of these informed, patriotic citizens!!! Anyone else remember how not so long ago when any of the numerous anomalies of 9/11 were addressed in a forum, the skeptical few would immediately be shouted down by the naysayers and disinfo cyber spooks? The times they are a changin'.
And don't be fooled, the fascists in charge have power, yes, but the citizenry has the numbers, have truth on their side, and the 9/11 Truth Movement is growing daily - including many prominent "establishment" figures, and former republican administration officials (Reagan, Bush, Ford, Carter) - and the fascists are scared shitless because they realize that THIS IS NEVER EVER GOING TO GO AWAY.
Now, this likewise makes them even more dangerous because the mass murdering sociopaths in our gov and military will likely do just about any damn thing in attempts to stave off info of 9/11 becoming common knowledge, and that time is getting closer ....will the people buckle and follow comrade Bush and the neocon cult into WW3, or, upon the next psyop "attack," will they rise up and revolt, instinctively knowing that it's now or never?
I mean think about it: we're talking about people who routinely make decisions and policies that result in widespread misery and mass murder. Hell, look at Katrina, look at the hundreds of thousands of dead Iraqi civilians. In order to maintain their power, I've little doubt they'd hesitate to use germs or nukes against anyone, including our populace, as huge of a gamble as that would be, these people are pathological, completely unconscionable, and I fear will do anything to drown out those "nutty" 9/11 "conspiracies."

The near-freefall collapse and the appearance of an implosion are effects that are in no way limited to a planned demolition. They are quite understandable results of the plane collisions if you actually know a thing or two about how the building was designed and also basic physics.

#s 136 and 137: It's not so unrealistic to think that a plane could be piloted several feet above the ground. Certainly it's not a Top Gun maneuver. Pilots do have to land planes, after all, and that requires flying in a controlled manner several feet above the ground. Even pilots flying for the first time have to land planes. Hey, I'm not saying it's a peice of cake, but it's not grounds for dismissing the notion that that WAS, in fact, flight 77.
Susan, #139: How many strawmen need to be toppled before a person can accept that there was no planned conspiracy? When a simple explanation can be shown to exist for both the main WTC towers that does NOT include government scheming, why then should we continue to hang onto the same complex conspiracy theories for building 7? The fact is, I don't know enough about it, and it's difficult to get much info about it, primarily because it has received far less attention. With more info, it's very likely that it would have a good explanation. And frankly, I don't believe you when you tell me that the fires and debris explanation has been SO disproved; that's what people would have told me re: the towers, if I wasn't prepared to refute them with an actual deeper understanding of the conditions surrounding their fall.
Plunger, #145: The notion that some of the supposedly identified hijackers are still alive is interesting, but it's a bit of a non-sequitur regarding the plane hitting the pentagon. It's possible there are many people with the same names in parts of the Middle East; it's also possible someone stole the names of the men that are still alive. It doesn't mean the planes weren't hijacked.
Agent99, #146: That was in no way a missile. The front edge of the tail can be seen at the edge of the picture, and the body is too large to be a missile. You're deluding yourself.

Ari... If you know your physics, that means stuff I'm not allowed to accuse you of on this site. I've watched videos of the construction of the building, among other sources, and neither the impacts nor the fires could even remotely be conceived to have caused those collapses. So. You're either a liar or a determined dupe on that one.
Go to the Judicial Watch site I linked at #151, NOT the damn screen shots or other internet videos. They're NOT the same. The videos I linked at Judicial Watch were produced to them by court order, and they are two different surveillance cameras' footage that show a VERY small, white, skinny MISSILE hitting the Pentagon.

Ari, First of all you're right. You dont know enough about it. Clearly, you didn't even check out the links I offered.
Also, you couldn't be that great at physics, cause you got the equation turned around. If you look closely at WTC7, then you begin to understand the questions surrounding the other 2 towers. You're saying that you reject the notion that WTC1 and 2 were demolished and therefore, you need not look at WTC7. I'm saying explain WTC7's collapse. Inform yourself. You proclaim that you do not know the facts because not many facts about the collapse of WTC7 exist. The 911 Commission did not delve into WTC7 for a reason. There is video evidence of the demolition squibs before the building goes down. Check it out before you argue. You're uninformed discourse shows nothing but arrogance. Your acceptance of your own ignorance in this matter puts everything else you say into question because you don't know your facts. The physicists from Scholars for Truth (an impressive bunch) certainly seem better equipped than you.
You gotta offer me a better explanation than "I dunno."

Considering that fully 1/3 of the hijackers are actually still alive, yet neither the government nor the MSM has made any effort to correct the record, I find that interesting.
Considering that none of the names of the 19 purported hijackers were found on ANY flight manifest, the matter of hijacking is worthy of closer investigation.
Considering that Raytheon employees (with highest level expertise in fly by wire technologies developed and tested by Raytheon) disappeard aboard those flights on 9/11 leads a thinking individual to question the likelihood that this is all just an unhappy coincidence.
Considering that Mohammad Atta was seated just one row in front of Mossad Agent Daniel Lewin on 9/11 is interesting, to say the least.
Considering that five Mossad Agents were caught celebrating in New York on 9/11 with explosives residue in their van and a video/audio tape of their own celebration, and subsequently failed SEVEN polygraph tests, perhaps there was a conspiracy involving Israel here.
Considering that Zim Shipping, and Israeli firm, cut short its lease at the WTC and vacated its offices there in the days prior to 9/11, that raises some eyebrows.
Considering that the Israeli paging system, Odigo, sent out a warning to avoid the WTC some two hours in advance of the aircraft striking the towers seems to indicate foreknowledge of said conspiracy.
Considering that BeBe Netanyahu was interviewed later that afternoon on CNN and could barely control his glee, stating "this is very good for Israel!" - it really all sort of starts to piss you off...

Agent, other than being accused of being a liar and a dupe, I'm curious about this other secret accusation you've got hidden up your sleeve. It has to do with physics, eh? It'll be a little brain-tickler for me tonight while I fall asleep.
On to more serious matters though, the impacts did not collapse the building; nor did any melting of the steel. 2 points for you on those. -2 points for failing to recognize that I already addressed that. What I said was that the building could easily have fallen because the heat-weakened (yet still solid) steel could have been overstressed by uneven heat loads. If that doesn't make any sense to you, you're either ignorant or a determined crackpot.
About the footage, I initially went to the videos through your very own link, so there's no need to preach to me about the differences between those vidoes and whatever else you've got. What I saw (same as what you saw) was by no means a missile. I can understand that you think it's VERY small and skinny, but that's what we call PERSPECTIVE. Take a look at the building, and look at how it appears to rapidly shrink as it goes into the distance. Stop on 0:24 of the 2nd video. The fuselage of that object is approximately the same height as one story of the building where it strikes ... in the range of 10 feet tall. It's too big to be a missile. Besides that, you can make out the familiar curvature of the rear belly of the plane leading the the tail.
Brad isn't your mother. Anyway, I don't think he'll be on your side on this one, but I could be wrong ... regardless, the facts are against you, and that's all that matters.

Those clips show a missile. The surveillance cameras were on conservation mode so things look herky-jerky and the missile was, of course, going too fast to show in every frame, but you can see the nose entering the frame on the right after the cop car goes by in the first one, and the whole missile just as it's about to hit, again on the right, again after the cop car, on the second one.

In order for that to have been a 757 in the middle distance passing by, the trees behind it (which were never fully obscured as the purported 40' tall aircraft passed by) must have been upwards of 100 feet tall.
This entire streak of white smoke appears to be no more than six feet off the ground, and no more that 10' in diameter.
A 757 is massive, and would have surely blocked the view of those trees behind it as it passed by.

Regardless of perspective the fact remains that the pentagon is 77' tall and the tail section of a 757 is 63' 5" tall.
Therefore, event though the object is in the distance, you should be able to see the tail. In fact, assuming that the object is 15' off the ground, the top of the tail should be even with the top of the building.
As has been observed by several folks here you don't lose sight of the backround trees at any time. I do NOT see the tail.
Also with a total length of 231 feet (See link above) it should be 3 times as long as the building is high. It in fact looks to be only about as long as the building is high at the point of impact.
My biggest question regarding these videos is WHERE IS THE TAIL?

I was talking about the height of the entire plane, not just the fuselage. Unless you're trying to say that only the fuselage is visible, in which case Agent99 is still correct --- that's called a missle.
Check out this site that has specs on a Boeing 757:
http://www.aerospaceweb..../aircraft/jetliner/b757/
If you scroll down a bit you'll see that the height is listed at 44.50 ft - so I rounded up, doesn't change my observation much. Whatever that was that hit the Pentagon was not half its height, so it wasn't a 757.
Sorry.

Jimbo: I don't know where the people are, but we all know that people, and planes, are often disappeared by dropping them in the ocean. That flight went off radar, and whatever came back on radar was, CLEARLY, not that plane. So my guess is that it was ditched, passengers and all, in the ocean.
That was my very first reaction to people insisting 9/11 was an inside job and that it was a missile that hit the Pentagon (and Shanksville). The sad realization is that, if they were murderous enough to set the charges to take down the WTC buildings, they were murderous enough to simply off all the passengers on the other two planes. Hard to get used to, but if you go here, you will find entirely too much reason to give up the hope they wouldn't murder the plane passengers to do this. The truth will set us free, but it really isn't easy. I'd say the stakes are high enough now that we must face it no matter how hard it is.

It is merely seconds after the car passes thru the security gate that the explosion takes place.

Jimbo, a 757 would have done far more damage, and been exponentially harder to actually maneuver into the building, would have caused tons of collateral damage on its way in, even if they could have convinced a Top Gun to fly it into the building, or program the autopilot to do it. The only way they could be sure to do only the damage they were prepared to take was with a missile.
The towers were designed to take 757-sized planes like a screen door takes holes punched by pencils, and it didn't take any piloting genius to smack into them either. So no need to use missiles there.

One reason to use a missle is due to "wing in ground effect".
This occurs when an airplane is flown close to the ground - typically at about 1/2 its wingspan. The vorticies off the ends of the wings come in contact with the ground and act as a cusion giving the plan additional lift. This is hard to control during normal takeoffs and landings even for expierienced pilots. There is a tendency for the plane to "bounce" off this cusion and gain altitude during landings. When encountered, the total drag on the plane also changes abrubtly.
Even a small increase in speed greatly increase this effect. At full throttle it would probably be unmanagable.
For a pilot who was not allowed to rent a Cessna to be able to control a 757 in a level flight path at such a speed and altitude under "wing in ground" conditions is another reason I don't believe the official story.

Good question, but 2 problems.
#1 it is claimed by the news people I saw this evening that the plane was going 350 miles an hour. Other claims I have seen are even higher. This is about 1/2 the speed of sound, therefore the plane would be only half the distance away before you heard it than if it were not moving.
#2 The majority of the engine noise is directed backwards out of the engine discharges. Planes approaching don't make as much noise as when they are moving away from you.
Replace "plane" with "missle" in the above and it still applies
A perfect example of this occured to me on day when I was hiking a narrow canyon in the Sierras. I was sitting on a rock outcropping when I suddenly heard a whistling noise. As quick as I turned my head to see, two F16 fighter jets went screaming by so close I could have hit them with a rock. They freaked the crap out of me and every bird in the forest because I didn't hear a thing until they were right in front of me after which the noise was deafening. I could even see the pilots sitting in the cockpits.

There has been alot of talk about the tail section. I would like to hear some opinions on the "nose cone". It seems to me that a plane nose cone is shorter and gets fatter at a greater angle than what we see on the video. The proportions seem to be off. This is interesting to me because I have never been a real believer in the missile theory. I think there were too many eye-witnesses who saw a plane. The holes in the building walls are suspicious though. After all, you can't say the plane vaporized in one argument, and yet continued to plow holes through walls of concrete in the same argument. Bluebear2's "wing in ground effect" is interesting too. I had heard somethiing about that before but never really understood it until now.

The Pentagon is 5 stories tall, plus a large cornice on the top - call it 5.5 stories at 10 feet per story that is 55 feet.
On my screen the Pentagon measures 11mm high (measured with digital calipers) and the "missile" is about 2.5 mm high.
So by scaling 11/55=2.5/height of fuselage. 2.5*55/11=12.5.
If I'm not mistaken 12.5 feet is almost exaclty the diameter of a 757 fuselage and there is no missile that is anywhere near that big! I believe an ICBM is no bigger than 6 feet in diameter. Correct me if I'm wrong.
Also, I remember seeing a photo of the Pentagon inner ring with two holes. Both about 8 to 10 feet in diameter and spaced apart about the same distance as the engines on a 757. How could a missile make two holes 30 feet apart? The engines explain it prefectly.
BTW the offical story is bunk but the planes are all that is needed to explain everyting.
How they got there is the mystery that I want answered.

This is a better site for info on the 757.
When the stats refer to the height of the plane, it includes the contribution of the vertical tail section and the landing gear together. The stat is probably most important for hangar specifications, but when considering the size of the main body of the plane it's way off the mark (unless you think there's another 15' of body both above and below you when you're in the cabin). In the video, only the fuselage can be seen before the explosion (due to 1 sec frame rate). That would be approximately 12 feet high, not 44.5.
Bluebear posted info to a 747. The 757 is no more than 179 feet long (the 300 version). Hard to tell from the videos if the object is that large (keep in mind, the 100 and 200 models are ~155ft long), but the visible portion in video 2 is roughly as long as the building is tall, accounting for at least 75 feet. At the same time, the complete tail and a small portion of the nose are either obscured by the box or off frame. That's the best image we would get, because by the next frame, 1 second later, the plane would have traveled (at ~300mph) over 400 feet ... far enough to traverse what appears to be 200 feet between the plane and the building and to lodge the whole body of the plane in the combination of the building and the fireball.
To Agent and Susan, I tried reading what I could of your sources, but I'm at least 6 hours ahead of you, so it's far too late for me tonight. I will say I found it disingenuous of Steve Jones to selectively quote the very same article I linked you to, by Pr. Eagar, in showing how the steel could not have been melted by the jet fuel, without following through with his conclusions as to how the towers did fall, which conflicts with Mr. Jones' theory. Furthermore, Nila Sagavadan and Elias Davidsson's contributions are next to worthless, for reasons I don't have time to delve into right now, but, in short, because their logic and physics are too simplistic and miss the point. Sadly, I didn't go much beyond that, but my initial conclusion is that Scholars for Truth are not very scholarly.
Btw, I have already watched Loose Change in its entirety (couldn't remember the name above), so I'm far from ignorant on the arguments of the conspiracy folks. I must admit I'm a bit unsure how to explain some of the apparent squib charge bursts, particularly in WTC7, but that alone does not lead me to believe the government coordinated the hijacking of 4 planes, demolition of a national symbol, attack on our military center, death of dozens of our own military personnel, and mass murder of thousands of civilians. In fact, it takes a LOT more than a few apparent charges to get me anywhere close to that point, not just because they wouldn't do it, but because it's too big and they're too inept to pull it off without word getting out. This isn't just a lone assassination we're talking about here.
Cheers,

I don't think, as I said near the top of this thread, that it was a missile that hit the Pentagon. However, I'm equally skeptical about a 757's ability to do so little damage - even the LAWN was unscathed, for heaven's sake! (You could see that for yourself before they covered it all over with earth.)
The best speculation on this subject is that the aircraft was a retrofitted unmanned airplane, smaller than a 757, remotely controlled and loaded with explosives...oh, yes, and painted to resemble the flight it was simulating. Because many citizen witnesses interviewed on the day reported seeing an airliner flying towards the P. The engine photographed there before photos were prevented belonged to a considerably smaller plane.
Sorry, no links at the moment. It's getting late and I've had a gruelling day. But that analysis is easy to find by googling.
One other thing: the flight manifests and the ID's based on DNA "evidence" don't match up. Many name discrepancies. This was all thoroughly stage-managed.

Ari,
Personally, I do not agree with the Loose Change video. They start out strong, but then they get a little too far out there with undocumented accusations. I also don't agree with the Scholars for Truth website. It supplies links to every crackpot theory there is out there. Dr. Jones does not run or manage that site. His work, as well as David Ray Griffin's work is complling. Still I find Jim Hoffman's work at
http://911research.wtc7.net/
to be the most balanced. WTC7 was demolished. Of that, I am certain. The squibs, the insufficient fire and damage, the precision of the collapse all point to a controlled demo. After you get some rest, please look closely at Mr. Hoffman's research. It is by far the best I have seen.
As for the Pentagon, the link Bluebear and Brian offer www.pentagonresearch.com looks interesting too. I'll have to read through it when I have the time.

Not gonna read 194 posts.. But, I watched the "new angle" (the other was just what was already shown from the initial releases a year back or so) and from the way it entered the frame, it did NOT hit the building WITHOUT burrying in the lawn.
Since the lawn was not touched, I don't buy the "new angle" a bit. The "old" shot shows "something" coming straight in, but it's no where near big enough to be a boeing (I thought it was a 757) wide-body cross-continent jet.
The lawn and 16' foot and wreckage do NOT support a huge passenger liner hitting the Pentagon. What IS supported is an unmanned drone or missle (remeber, missles these days have tail fins and small wings and look kinda-sorta like planes.. helps them fly 250 miles to their targets)

Hey Plunger: what if you pick out a building in the US and plan on destroying it with the full intent to tie in the blame to a country with a hostile regime and 3rd largest oil reserve???
What if you are so smart you can fool a lot of people who are in denial that it's government would orchestrate the deaths of it's own people to gain more power to control and abuse the state of affairs at the helm of the strongest nation in the world. By passing laws to reduce the rights and freedoms of "the people" and a unified one sided control of the mass media which blocks out the truth but who's running story line becomes your concern is to protect "them" (da people) from the act of terror you CREATED.

Brothers and sisters of truth seeking, hello, how is everyone? I know know that the truth is spreading, and many are becoming awake. However knowing is only of worth when coupled with 'action'. We are now faced with an invisable force within our Human collective which wishes us either dead or enslaved. There are many names for these people, the Illuminati, New World Order, the Family, etc, but one thing is sure, they reside in the shadows pulling the strings of there puppets, while they bask in there money. We need to take the states back, locally, the way again of this country, instead of following there will, we need to revolt against them, when they do not follow the PEOPLE, and then after time root them out of our government for good. This country should be a place where any one of us has the possiblility of being president, working together, for the people, but the only people who have ruled for almost 100 years now have been wealthy, well connected, greedy men, who have served the masters of the shadows in return for wealth. I true ruler is a person of pure heart, this one needs to rise.

EA: I spend so much time on these 9/11 Truth threads and all the evidence out there precisely because I think realization of the truth behind this horror will cause people to rise up and take our country back. These smug dupes who will suspend the laws of physics and man to go along with the "winners", the coup d'etat, chill me to the bone, make my stomach lurch with the need to puke, but I keep at them because I don't want to sit back and let my country turn into a monarchy or dictatorship because of their smug folly. The forces of fascism have already cancelled out the economic power of millions of people who were middle class just a few years ago, and they're moving too fast for the rise of a person of pure heart to save our asses. We need numbers of people who are mostly heart working furiously to fend off this nation-ending disaster in progress, and this DOES include the use of force. To convince people to cast off their self-interest for the good of all life, you have to make them SEE the need for it.
The number one easiest to understand bit of the whole complicated mess is that the towers came down at nearly freefall speed. NOTHING can account for that except that all the resistence from all that steel and cement was vaporized (in this case by thermate, pools of molten metal still reacting with its chemicals were found beneath the rubble weeks later). ANY other explanation defies the laws of physics --- basic physics, not theoretical physics --- and, that, you will agree is impossible, no matter WHO suggests otherwise.

"Towers that fell 'like a controlled demolition'. Planes that vanished then mysteriously reappeared, and crucial evidence that has been lost for ever. In the Pentagon, a top secret team drew up a plan to simultaneously send up two airliners painted and numbered exactly the same, one from a civil airport in America, the other from a secret military airbase nearby. The one from the airport would have military personnel on board who had checked in as ordinary passengers under false names. The one from the airbase would be an empty drone, a remote-controlled unmanned aircraft. Somewhere along their joint flight paths, the passenger-carrying plane would drop below radar height, and disappear, landing back at the airbase and unloading its occupants in secret. Meanwhile, the drone would have taken up the other plane's designated course. High over the island of Cuba, it would be exploded in mid-air after broadcasting an international distress call that it was under attack from enemy fighters. The world would be told that a plane load of blameless American holidaymakers had been deliberately shot down by Fidel Castro's Communists - and that the US had no choice but to declare war and topple his regime. This Top Secret 'agent provocateur' plan - code named Operation Northwoods and revealed in official archives - dates from 1962 when the Cold War was at its height and was declassified in 2000."

"Operation NORTHWOODS may be the most corrupt plan ever created by the U.S. government. Operation Northwoods had called for nothing less than the launch of a secret campaign of terrorism within the United States in order to blame Castro and provoke a war with Cuba."
—James Bamford, ABC News, "Friendly Fire - U.S. Military Drafted Plans to Terrorize U.S. Cities to Provoke War With Cuba," May 1, 2001
http://abcnews.go.com/US...tory?id=92662&page=1
http://bodyofsecrets.com
"In the early 1960s, America's top military leaders reportedly drafted plans to kill innocent people and commit acts of terrorism in U.S. cities to create public support for a war against Cuba. Code named Operation NORTHWOODS, the plans reportedly included the possible assassination of Cuban émigrés, sinking boats of Cuban refugees on the high seas, hijacking planes, blowing up a U.S. ship, and even orchestrating violent terrorism in U.S. cities. The plans were developed as ways to trick the American public and the international community into supporting a war to oust Cuba's then new leader, communist Fidel Castro. America's top military brass even contemplated causing U.S. military casualties, writing: "We could blow up a U.S. ship in Guantanamo Bay and blame Cuba," and, "casualty lists in U.S. newspapers would cause a helpful wave of national indignation." The plans had the written approval of all of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and were presented to President Kennedy's defense secretary, Robert McNamara, in March 1962. But they apparently were rejected by the civilian leadership and have gone undisclosed for nearly 40 years. The Joint Chiefs at the time were headed by Eisenhower appointee Army Gen. Lyman L. Lemnitzer, who, with the signed plans in hand made a pitch to McNamara on March 13, 1962, recommending Operation Northwoods be run by the military. Whether the Joint Chiefs' plans were rejected by McNamara in the meeting is not clear. But three days later, President Kennedy told Lemnitzer directly there was virtually no possibility of ever using overt force to take Cuba, Bamford reports. Within months, Lemnitzer would be denied another term as chairman and transferred to another job. Ironically, the documents came to light, says Bamford, in part because of the 1992 Oliver Stone film JFK, which examined the possibility of a conspiracy behind the assassination of President Kennedy. "The scary thing is none of this stuff comes out until 40 years after," says Bamford."
—David Ruppe, ABC News, "Friendly Fire - U.S. Military Drafted Plans to Terrorize U.S. Cities to Provoke War With Cuba," May 1, 2001
http://abcnews.go.com/US...tory?id=92662&page=1
"We could blow up a drone (unmannded) vessel anywhere in the Cuban waters. The presense of Cuban planes or ships merely investigating the intent of the vessel could be fairly compelling evidence that the ship was taken under attack. The US could follow with an air/sea rescue operation covered by US fighters to "evacuate" remaining members of the non-existant crew. Casualty lists in US newspapers would cause a helpful wave of national indignation. We could develop a Communist Cuba terror campaign in the Miami area, in other Flordia cities and even in Washington. The terror campaign could be pointed at Cuban refugees seeking haven in the United States. Use of MIG-type aircraft by US pilots could provide additional provocation. Harassment of civil air, attacks on surface shipping, and destruction of US military drone aircraft by MIG type palnes would be useful. An F-86 properly painted would convince air passengers that they saw a Cuban MIG, especially if the pilot of the transport were to announce that fact. Hijacking attampts against US civil air and surface craft should be encouraged. It is possible to create an incident which would demonstrate convincingly that a Cuban aircraft has attacked and shot down a chartered civilian airliner from the United States. An aircraft at Eglin AFB would be painted and numbered as an exact duplicate for a civil registered aircraft belonging to a CIA proprietary organization in the Miami area. At a designated time the duplicate would be subsituted for the actual civil aircraft and the passengers, all boarded under carefully prepared aliases. The actual registered aircraft would be converted to a drone. Take off times of the drone aircraft and the actual aircraft will be scheduled to allow a rondevous. From the rondevous point the passenger-carrying aircraft will descend to minimum altitude and go directly to an auxiliary airfield at Eglin AFB where arrangements will have been made to evacuate the passengers and return the aircraft to its original status. Meanwhile the drone aircraft will continue to fly the filed flight plan. The drone will be transmitting on the international distress frequency "MAY DAY" message stating it is under attack by Cuban MIG aircraft. The transmission will be interrupted by the destruction of aircraft which will be triggered by radio signal. This will allow IACO radio stations to tell the US what has happened to the aircraft instead of the US trying to "sell" the incident. It is possible to create an incident that will make it appear that Communist Cuban MIGs have destroyed a USAF aircraft over international waters in an unprovoked attack. On one such flight, a pre-briefed pilot would fly Tail-end Charlie. While near the Cuban island this pilot would broadcast that he had been jumped by MIGs and was going down. This pilot would then fly at extremely low altitude and land at a secure base, an Eglin auxiliary. The aircraft would be met by the proper people, quickly stored and given a new tail number. The pilot who performed the mission under an alias would resume his proper identity. The pilot and aircraft would then have disappeared. A submarine or small craft would distribute F-101 parts, parachute, etc. The pilots retuning to Homestead would have a true story as far as they knew. Search ships and aircraft could be dispatched and parts of aircraft found."

Dylan Avery suggests a Raytheon Tomahawk Cruise Missile hit the Pentagon in Loose Change 2. Check the shape of the nose of one of these missiles here. Look familiar? How about EXACTLY like the nose entering the frame of the surveillance camera footage we finally got to see today. There are also a whole bunch of other very plane-like depictions of them when you google "tomahawk cruise missile".

the two videos in WMV file format are avaliable from the link below:
http://www.defenselink.mil/pubs/foi/index.html
these are more easily run in a frame by frame with full screen display. whats interesting is that there are a few vehicles that go across the background and one that drives out from the building on this side of those construction reels and things. The plane/missile is visible in both videos and from the perspective of the vehicles would appear to be rather small, certainly not the size of an jet airliner. in both videos one can get an idea of the debry thrown from the impact and its not much. The initial explosion is white/yellow in color and looks like High Explosives and not jet fuel.
These videos leave me to believe it wasn't the boeing jet airliner. Someone with better video editing could do a better job of some backgound and artifact subtraction and calculation of some velocities. Someone with experience in explosives might be able to calculate someother things rellated to fireball growth and colors.
i want to see those other Videos!!!!!

Downloaded the videos. Crude measurements, erring on the side of extremely generous, say that missile, or streak of smoke from it, couldn't have been more than five feet in diameter, and it was way lower than ten feet off the ground, more like three feet off it. The cruise missiles I've read about are about two or two and a half feet in diameter. So this leaves room for the possibility that it was a mini jet, but no way, Jose, was that a 757.
I think I owe someone above an apology, but am too tired to look to make sure. Someone was talking about diameter and height, and my mind was on the width of the initial site of impact at the time. If I disputed someone's effort regarding the diameter of a fuselage, I'm sorry.
I'm still dying to find out about the beautiful little matte black jets circling me as I was driving north on the coast highway somewhere south of Big Sur years ago. I was in a convertible, and it was two tiny jets circling, as if they were using my car as their vector for this maneuver. I watched them simply wink out of sight before my very eyes. HOW'D they do that!?! I may be crazy, but not psychotic. They were clearly visible one instant and invisible the next. Way cool. I was in an MG Midget, and those jets weren't that much bigger than my car. Broad daylight, back when my eyesight was still perfect. Scout's honor.

The fact of 211 postings on one issue in 15 hours demonstrates how much pent-up emotion people retain over 9/11. Many of us disbelieve the official story, others accept it and worry that we'll look like conspiracy kooks who also believe in the Loch Ness Monster and Martian landings...in other words, as
we've been described by the right wing whenever we talk about the stolen 2004 election. That is a danger to us, so let's look at the big picture.
I think we'd all agree that absent the following disinformation (lies) from the Bush administration, the official story would have been widely accepted:
1. Bush claimed the decision to invade Iraq was made after 9/11 (disproven by the testimony of Richard Clarke and Paul O'Neill).
2. Bush claimed he invaded Iraq because of WMD.
3. Bush claimed he invaded Iraq because Iraq was seeking yellowcake uranium from Niger.
4. Bush claimed he invaded Iraq because of known links between Saddam Hussein and al Qaeda (Cheney still claims this is true).
5. Bush denied allegations of torture (disproven by his own Attorney General's admissions).
6. Bush denied using extraordinary rendition.
7. Bush denied the existence of secret CIA prisons.
8. Bush denied spying on Americans without a warrant (and while he was in fact doing that, made speeches saying warrants were always required).
9. Bush (through Scottie McClellan) denied that anyone in the administration was involved in the outing of Valerie Plame (already proven false).
10. Bush claimed Ken Lay was Ann Richards' friend, not his own, yet somehow he refers to this total stranger, who was part of Cheney's top-secret energy talks in 2001, as "Kenny boy" and twice had him overnight at the White House (including once after the Enron scandal had broken open).
A chronic liar who invades a sovereign country under false pretenses, suborns torture, and spies on his own citizens illegally has nobody but himself to blame if some of those citizens accuse him of conspiratorial motives that seem farfetched to others. In other words, folks, Bush and his friends (especially his friends) are capable of orchestrating a sinister plot that kills innocent Americans, on the grounds that a greater "good" (survival of Israel, American control of Middle Eastern oil, democracy movement in Asia and destruction of a "Muslim caliphate") could be achieved. Neocons think this way.
What evidence exists to contradict the official story that a gang of suicide terrorists hijacked four commercial airliners on 9/11, flew two of them into the World Trade Center, a third into the Pentagon, and planned to fly a fourth into the White House only to crash in rural Pennsylvania?
1) Engineers have testified that the twin towers could not have collapsed from being struck where they were by airplanes.
2) The twin towers were constructed with the specific goal of withstanding such an impact.
3) A third tower collapsed without being struck, an occurrence that hasn't been explained.
4) The damage to the Pentagon appears too limited to have been caused by a Boeing 757.
5) The lack of collateral damage at the Pentagon requires that the alleged hijacker (an amateur pilot) would have had to perform an extraordinary feat of airmanship.
Other suspicious facts are: Mohammed Atta was seen on Jack Abramoff's gambling yacht two days before 9/11; the White House ignored a specific warning a month before 9/11; Bush sat frozen in his seat for seven minutes reading "My Pet Goat" to a kindergarten class after receiving the news (in spite of the August warning, which should have prompted him to immediate action); Cheney's whereabouts and conduct on 9/11 have never been explained; and Zacharias Moussaoui has variously been described as a 9/11 plotter, a terrorist, a crackpot, and a terrorist wannabe who had nothing to do with 9/11 but was prosecuted anyway to placate the families of the victims.
Rev. David Griffin, a scholarly and soft-spoken man, made a compelling speech at University of Wisconsin/Madison last year. He persuaded me that Bush & Co. at least knew of the 9/11 attack in advance and failed to prevent it.

Here are a couple of animated gifs I made and a still of the object in question. Notice in the still that, if this is a plane, the windows appear to be situated such that the fusalage would have to be rotated 90 degrees to the left. This seems to be contradictory since the wings were apparently destroyed upon impact and there is relatively little destruction of the soil before impact.
Notice that in the second animated GIF, there appears to be a white smoke trail behind this object before impact. NOTE: it does not appear to be in the shape of the tail of a American Airlines 757.
This video leads me towards the missile theory more than it does towards the plane theory (and I was not a believer in the missile theory).

As in just about all things political, white Americans tend to have much, much more faith in the the American system of governance, security and the American judicial system, while non-whites, particularly native and African-Americans have a different perspective born out of a different experience.
There is a reality about America. White privilege shields some Americans from that reality and creates confusion as to who their allegiances should be with.
The same reason white folks believe the Bush 911 conspiracy theory is the same reason white folks can't come together and get an American universal healthcare system. It's the same reason labor unions are so weak and corporations run everything. It's the same reason we have such shitty mass transit and can only buy cars that get 30 miles per gallon when other countries baseline standards have for a long time been above that shit.
It's all for the same reason. No solidarity amongs that people. Divisions, fractures and infighting. White folks have been fooled by the carrot of white privilege into siding with super rich elites and against their class interests.
This applies to all Republicans and to most white Democrats who deny black folks leadership within the Democratic Party.
400 years of white privilege
So I'm curious as to what is the ethnic composition of the readers on this blog and particularly, within this thread.
I think most white folks in America are at an extreme psychological disadvantage due to hundreds of years of white privilege leaving multi-generational scars of delusion preventing sound assessment of what reality even is.
On the other hand, non-whites in America know what this country is capable of because we have multi-generational memory of the true underbelly.
That is why election fraud is no surprise.
911 is no surprise.
The crimes of the US govt rarely surprise red and black folk, Native and African-Americans. It's the white Americans that are shocked, never believe the truth and thus allow it to be repeated again and again and again and again.....

Perry Logan accuses skeptics of not checking their facts (his first condemnation). He then proceeds, without a single fact in support, to accuse these same skeptics of having low IQ's (I believe mine is around 130), using ecstasy (I smoke cigars), being angry white guys (calm people, women and blacks all support the official version, in other words), and of having their own specific theories while being intolerant of others' theories (categorically untrue).
I invite Mr. Logan to tell us in plain English that he accepts the official version of 9/11 (he hasn't done that, notice). Then he might explain why the Bush administration fought tooth and nails to deny the Kean-Hamilton commission the tools it needed to investigate (and only cooperated under intense pressure from survivors' families), what he thinks about Able Danger, and how he answers the legitimate questions raised here and elsewhere.

Until the unanswered questions are addressed, Ricky, I assure you someone will be asking them in November and long afterward. With Bush at 29% in the polls, asking skeptical questions about his conduct will hardly be a political liability. You couldn't be more wrong about that...I suspect it's a case of the wish being mother to the thought, if you know what that expression means.
When Bush was around 50%, you were saying the same things about "libs" and "conspiracy nuts." Since then, another 21% has joined our side. Don't you feel a bit lonely out there?

As a "white" girl, you need to give it a rest. It's "white" people that are the majority raising hell about 9/11. It was a majority of "white" people that were in DC contesting the vote in OHIO when African Americans were denied and shut out of voting.
WHERE were you? DC? I was.
Don't sit on your high horse and blame "white" people because there are some of us who have been fighting like hell for equal rights and justice for all.
"WHITE" people actually joined "black" people on the million man march in DC this year.
FYI some people of Caucasian AND African American ancestry actually DO stand together as Americans.
Ingemar, a LOT of us WHITE people, actually went down to the Gulf Coast, volunteered time and money.
Just because Ricky and Bush are stupid racist fascists, I don't appreciate you lumping many of us In with them. Get over yourself and your self pity and stand with actual Americans who do want liberty and justice for all.

Agent 99 - I took a look at the Raytheon site you linked. A Tomahawk cruise missile is 18 ft. 3 in. long and 20.4 in. in diameter.
As I have mentioned above, scaling things in the still pics that are of known height at the impact point and comparing to the "missile/plane" show that it must be approx 12 feet high and by implication 12 feet in diameter. Also the length of the "missile/plane" that is shown scales out to be approx. 100 ft. long.
By reversing this scaling process a Tomahawk with a 20 in. diameter would be approx 7.5 times smaller in diameter and 6 times shorter than what is seen in the video.
Could you explain how you arrived at your estimate of a 5 ft max diameter? Here's my method.
Toggle back a forth from the frame with the plane and the frame with the explosion to locate the impact point and therefore where to measure the building height. This is necessary since the height recedes with distance from the camera. Measure the height on your computer screen at the impact point. We know the real height is approx 60 ft.
On my screen the building measures 0.386 in. and the plane measures 0.083 in. high by 0.689 in. long.
The actual dimension scale out to be:(.083×60/.386=12.9 ft high) and (.689*60/.386=107 ft long)
I'm pretty sure that overhead depictions of the planes path have the plane traveling slightly towards the camera (not perpendicular to the camera) and is therfore slightly farther away in the images than the impact point on the building. This will create a slight error that will tend to underestimate the plane size, so 12 feet is a minimum diameter.
Unless you can find a flaw in the method or can show a good method that yields a different result there isn't much to argue about.
I'd like to know who did it. I think it is likely our government was invloved and I would love to prove it. I realize that if we could prove it was a missile that would be proof of who did it, but I think you are wasting your time and credibility. Let's try to settle this scientifically and move on to more productive efforts to get to the truth.

Fine, we can put the matter to rest right now, based on this video.
Someone estimate for us the DISTANCE this video is relative to the point of impact. If I were guessing, I would say maybe a football field, give or take? Does it seem closer than that?
I don't and can't honestly tell.
Now if we go by the measurements of a Boeing 757, roughly its height and length, we'll have a pretty good idea, I would say. Right?
Based on the video I see, something just doesn't LOOK right to me.

What's the matter Ricky? Kids on the 'short bus' kick you off for being too stupid again?
The fact is its no longer about Dems & Republicans or Liberals & Conservatives. Corrupt factions within both parties work together. Whether or not this corrupt collective represent the interests of 'Globalists' the 'Illuminati', or some other secretive fascist society matters little.
Troll's like Ricky would prefer to divide & concur… incite people using traditional stereotypical politics. But then, that’s all simple-minded folk like Ricky have left… Hoping that we'll be foolish enough to fight with one another – distract us from our real enemies.
No Ricky…
Today is about honest Americans who give a shit what their Government & Military (claim to) do in their name, and that of America, Freedom & Liberty... It’s about the Constitution of the United States of America…
" The Constitution of the United States is a law for rulers and people, equally in war and peace, and covers with the shield of its protection all classes of men, at all times, and under all circumstances. No doctrine involving more pernicious consequences was ever invented by the wit of man than that any of its provisions can be suspended during any of the great exigencies of government. Such a doctrine leads directly to anarchy or despotism.”
- The Supreme Court of the United States, 1866
Being patriotic does not mean blindly & unquestioningly endorsing or following the orders of elected officials within Government. GOVERNMENT IS DIRECTED BY THE PEOPLE - not the other way round!
"Government is not reason, it is not eloquence, it is force; like fire, a troublesome servant and a fearful master. Never for a moment should it be left to irresponsible action."
- Geroge Washinton, 1790
Make no mistake... The real terrorists occupy our Government, Military, Secret Agencies and Corporate structures. Without privy intelligence, aid in planning, financing & direction 9/11 could not have occurred.
But Ricky wouldn’t understand this… even if it came up and bit him on the ass. Simpleton dumb-ass troll!

Jeff,
Several people also saw a jet veer off and NOT hit the Pentagon. I'd like you to answer how Bush saw the first plane hit the WTC when it was NOT televised. He said this TWICE in public. Isn't it possible someone else, with a live feed to the Bush team, was filming that day? If so, the whole thing was planned by our government or allowed to happen. Only the most evil people would capitalize on the 9/11 tragedy as the Bush administration has. They are accomplishing everything they want because of the results of the events of that day. How much more obvious can they get?

Big Dan says, "The Bush administration has already proved (to be) serial liars without a doubt."
Exactly the point about all this. Conspiracy theories always abound in a climate of lies and obfuscation. The same thing happened when J.F.K. was assassinated; L.B.J. told the Warren Commission what he wanted it to find, it cooperated, and the public replied, "We want the truth, not a cover-up!"
In that case, the Zapruder film proved that Oswald could not have been a lone assassin (though it didn't prove he was innocent). In spite of this crystal-clear evidence that a shot was fired from the grassy knoll area, "non-conspiracy theorists" have gradually succeeded in convincing people (though not a majority) that Oswald acted alone.
The usual slander against conspiracy theorists is that they can't accept simple explanations for tragic events, like J.F.K.'s murder and 9/11, because their emotions won't allow them to accept our vulnerability to random acts of violence by crazed individuals or small groups of zealots.
This is a contrived argument. I'd posit the opposite, that those who resist conspiracy theories (and can look at the Zapruder film and still argue Oswald was a lone assassin, absurdly) have a paralyzing need for normalcy. They fear the unknown. Devils in our midst and unresolved cases make them very uncomfortable. Healthy skeptics thus become moonbats and "silly liberals." It's psychological.

So... you give the 'official' accounts of events a pass. Even though every time someone wants to verify information 'homeland security' is thrown up as a catch-all as to why the Government needn't prove its assertions with facts & science.

Boeing 757
Engine weight: about 40,000 lbs. each (36,600 - 43,500 lbs depending on type)
Wing span: about 124 feet
Tail Height: 44 ft 6 in.
Body Width: 12 ft 4 in.
The above can be confirmed at this link, and here [pdf].
What I would like Ari and the other aeronautical engineer types to do is explain, microsecond by microsecond, how the envent unfolded.
The nose of the aircraft contacts the building. Collapse of the nose, pilot cabin, and the forward area of the aircraft forward of the wings begins. It starts to crumple and compress.
About 60 feet of fuselage must compact and compress before the forward tips of the engines make contact with the building, and approximately 64 feet must compact before the leading edges of the wings make contact with the building.
Shock waves and resistance begins to transfer thru the main structures of the fuselage backwards sixty some feet toward the engines and wings. And back toward the entire fuselage.
The forward momentum of the two engines attached to the wings, begins to put stress on the areas where the engines are attached to the wings, and where the wings are attached to the fuselage.
This pressure increases as the thrust of the engines presses forward and the stress and resistance presses backward along the 60 feet of the fuselage towards the engines and wings.
Why would or would not the wings or engines sheer off and travel toward the building?
The engines are probably the toughest and most difficult to destroy. They are composed of the most advanced metals, and often are the parts that are visible even when the rest of an aircraft has been destroyed in many aviation disaster scenes.
They would seem to be the most likely to penetrate the building, but there is only one hole in the building, not three, in the early photos. It would seem that each one of the engines could make a large hole in most buildings, and even at the pentagon, large indentations.
Have you done any calculations on the angular momentum that would be extant with two 40,000 lb advanced metal devices propelled by incredible thrust, and what that momentum and thrust would do when the wings suddenly stop forward movement?
It is hardly likely that they would go backwards and get in line to go thru a 16' hole along with the remainder of the fuselage ...

Thank you to all of you for great information and leads to sites to more information.
What made me start to think about 9/11 being an inside job was the phone call from a son to his mom from a plane supposedly flying above 35,000 feet.
Why would a son state his full name to his mom and then ask if she believed it was him ? None of my kids, one in Iraq, ever, ask if I believe its them whatever time they call. Moms know the voice, and can tell if there is something wrong just from the tone.
So not a scientific thing but highly unusual.
Someone asked what happened to all the people in the plane. A plane can land, disembark passengers, passengers are murdered. After all when 3,000 are killed senselessly what are a few hundred more. Pyschopaths have no conscience
a life is nothing to them its just a game.
So for those who need to believe that 9/11 was pulled off by an outside force, nothing will change your mind. Just keep pulling those covers over your head and everything will be alright.
In the end, guess who will be protecting the sheep?
Thank you Brad for allowing the ones who want to educate themselves a forum to do so.

A cell phone, in 2001, at 35,000 feet moving at 300 or more mph, will not work.
Even with a few years of improvement, still won't, over rural Pennsylvania.

Being Canadian, I don't know much about the Pentagon or it's location and geography. I also never gave the conspiracy theories a second thought, but I think this video is only going to feed those conspiracy theorists.
I mean, I find it hard to believe a 757 dropped from the sky at 600 mph, levelled off right above the ground (or possibly even touched down) and flew/drove perfectly horizontal into the building. Those videos look like the plane is almost driving on the ground it is so low.
I also find it hard to believe that an object moving so fast as to be little more than a blur on camera, and fast enough to be completely vaporized, didn't do more damage than what was actually there.

You could ask Ricky or Jeff to provide us with information on cell phone reception at different altitudes, but they don't feel like they should have to provide real information. Funny how they feel stating their opinion makes them believe it is fact. Like how they see a plane. Its scary really that there are people that gullible and drone like.
Ricky is a "loyalist' not a patriot. It's a kind of sick fascination to watch or listen to someone like him.

If dissent and questioning is not "appropriate" can dictatorship be far behind?
If one iota of truth has come from this administration from 2000, it would be easier to accept their story of 9/11.

Why can't the Pentagon release the video?
Don't give us vague generalities --- tell us specifically why it would jeopardize the U.S. security to release that video that clearly shows a plane hitting the pentagon?

What it IS is far less important to me than what it ISN'T.
Contrary to the completely orchestrated mainstream media / government coordinated disinformation campaign that was launched against "Oui The Sheeple" yesterday, during which virtually EVERY talking head read directly from the exact same government provided script, this video clearly demonstrates that NO 757 hit the Pentagon.
Whatever it IS, it was clearly trailing a plume of white smoke:

757 engines at sea level DO NOT SMOKE. Nor is there a contrail at sea level.
The video camera that shot this footage is no more than six feet above the pavement.
The trees in the distance are no more than are NOT EVER OBSCURED by the object flying in front of those trees.
The distance from the camera to the flying object is likely at least as great as the distance from the flying object back to the trees in the distance.
A 757 is 45' tall.
The object in the video appears to be flying about 3' off the deck.
A 757 would have totally obscured the view of the trees in the distance as it passed through the frame.
It didn't.
The government lied about this video, and every single talking head on the MSM did too.
This video clearly demonstrates what DID NOT HAPPEN.
The Media and the government conspired in the greatest act of deception ever coordinated to defraud the American people yesterday when this video was released and reported upon.
If you want to know what didn't happen, listen to your government.
Do you really need to know what DID happen in order to demand an end to this coup?
Aren't the lies enough?

The bigger picture is that we are war with a dedicated, ruthless enemy who hates us and wants to kill us all.
You want the world (an our enemies) to see how vulnerable we actually are, that our military HQ can be hit by a hijacjed jet? Such a video will be shown someday but that day is not today nor should it be.
Comfort yourself in knowing that you want EXACTLY what our enemies want which is for that video to be released and used by our enemies as a propaganda film showing what a succesfull attack against the US Military headquarters looks like.

NEWSFLASH, Jeff! They already know how "vulnerable" you are.
Thanks for not answering my question.
I'll answer it for you. A video that shows a plane hitting the Pentagon is no different from a video that shows a plane hitting the WTC towers. It will NOT aid the terrorists in any meaningful way and it is a ridiculous argument to even consider. In fact, why would they even need this video when they have the greatest PR recruitment event in the history of terrorism --- namely, the Iraq Invasion.

I went back and carefully viewed plunger's slow animated version. You can clearly see something long and dark shoot out of the plane which is somewhat nose-down. The missile first hits the ground, kicks up debris, and then heads for the Pentagon. The plane then follows it into the hole.
I have always been a believer that there were only two planes using possibly 10 highjackers actually used to crash into buildings. The other two planes were not highjacked but remotely controlled and destroyed over the Atlantic. And what of the two planes that made emergency landings at Cleveland Hopkins Airport? Mayor Michael White made the announcement that they landed there. I live near Cleveland, so I want the truth about that.

You just hit the nail on the head Jeff, we were vulnerable because Dick Cheney & company were completly aware of what was going down & chose to have war games & disperse our Military off far enough so that we were UNABLE to protect ourselves, & THIS is were the questions start -then lead to the other bigger questions.

I find it odd that you would trust those who DID NOT prevent this attack, Jeff. It was THEY who left us vulnerable if an actual attack did take place. And many who were involved (or at the very least didn't stop this )have been rewarded and promoted! No one was fired except those who have tried to expose the truth. No CEO in his right mind rewards the worst employees, unless they are part of the illegal activities that have taken place.

How about my question on cell phone calls from the plane?
What about the 'put calls' on United's stock?
Why did Bush have to appear with Cheney at the commission once it was allowed to form after two years of stonewalling by Bush.
Jeff, in a crime, you need to see who benefitted from the crime and follow the money. How did Osama benefit? WHO HAS MADE BILLIONS OF AMERICAN MONEY FROM THE CRIME?
Osama is on the run....Afganistan and Iraq are in ruins......Halliburton is racking in the money, Cheney is worth 90 million (on paper) and Bush 20 million. Bush was a failed businessman until he became a failed governor.

Terrorits used a hijacked plane to hit the military heaquarters of the United States of America. This was a wildly succesfull (albeit illegal and dishonorable) attack on the US by a terrorist group.

Terrorist pilot Mohammad Atta blew up a bus in Israel in 1986. The Israelis captured, tried and imprisoned him. As part of the Oslo agreement with the Palestinians in 1993, Israel had to agree to release so-called "political prisoners."
However, the Israelis would not release any with blood on their hands, The American President at the time, Bill Clinton, and his Secretary of State, Warren Christopher, "insisted" that all prisoners be released.
Thus Mohammad Atta was freed and eventually thanked the US by flying an airplane into Tower One of the World Trade Center. This was reported by many of the American TV networks at the time that the terrorists were first identified.
It was censored in the US from all later reports.

Indeed. The cell phone technology is composed of ground stations, and the cell phone unit itself.
If the cell phone transmits to a ground station, that station determines what the next station might be if you are moving, and contacts the next station to pass on the information so the call will not be dropped.
When speed is involved, even 70 mph at times, will cause a cascade (too many stations trying to figure out direction and who should handle it - but can't) which will cause a dropped call (link here).
At several hundred miles per hour at 36000 feet a cascade is assured, assuming any station could be contacted at all in the first instance.
More likely that many stations would fight for first contact thinking they were first, and hence a cascade, or a failure to make a first contact.
Here is a link that explains "handover" or "handoff".
Some experiments confirm this: see this link and this link

The probelm is that on 9/11, the other side attacked us with our own pieces.

You describe what happened --- the WTC towers and the Pentagon were all attacked. Nobody argues that. Bushco. allowed this to happen and, yes, it is great PR for terrorists around the world.
However, releasing a video that shows the plane does not make what happened at the Pentagon any more symbolic to these people. In fact, it is more advantageous for the Pentagon to release this video in terms of American perception at this time. The fact that they won't makes one seriously consider what they're hiding.
We've seen the destruction.
We've seen the explosion of the impact.
All that we haven't seen is the plane.
Why is showing the Pentagon plane akin to giving the terrorists some kind of magical propaganda?

Jeff,
I am only going to direct one comment to you, as you have already wasted the time and energy of many intelligent and brave people on this blog.
Your unequivocal stance that you have already identified an 'enemy' and his/her 'motives' is unacademic. Therefore, because you have not heeded the questions and rebuttals to date, you do not deserve to be part of this conversation.
Here is a last chance, Jeff (and all others like you) This is Pentagon video is only ONE video. IT'S THE @*&^%!ING PENTAGON! There aren't any other video cameras? Satellite views? Security eyewitnesses? This is the center of military power! There are quite a few cameras around the local Walmart! I just don't buy that there isn't more footage which would show the whole picture more clearly. DO NOT BOTHER USING "SECURITY" AS A REBUTTAL. That is a cop out and you know it. The truth is just as powerful a weapon as any hidden missle battery/any other security measure that the Pentagon doesn't want us to see that 'failed'.
I don't understand what all the fuss is about this really, really poor quality video, of which one frame could be argued resembles a plane. Why aren't people clamoring for better footage? I would bet there where DOZENS of cameras that caught the event. What about footage a little further away? Why haven't we seen any footage of the plane flying toward it?
Jeff, you CANNOT use the arguement that clamoring for better footage 'helps' the enemy. The point of this is trying to figure out WHO the enemy is!! You have not sourced any of your arguements about why you believe it even was Islamofacists, you just parrot the administration. THEREFORE, you are either so hopelessly naive that you should not be allowed to continue debating with us on this blog, OR you are in fact working for agents of a coverup. I sincerely hope it is not the latter.

THIS EXPLAINS IT.
The type of aircraft and engines used to attack the Pentagon.
This shows the Raytheon connection to 9/11.
THE ANSWER:
http://www.rense.com/general70/safe.htm
It was this collaborative approach that led Jon and I to conclude that no 757 hit the Pentagon so we looked for alternatives. The only plane that made sense was either a 737 or an A3 Skywarrior, both of which can use the same types of jet engines up to a point.
The wing span of most 737 jets fall into the range of between 93.0 ft and 112.6 ft which is still 19 feet to 38 feet of wing that cannot be accounted for in impacting the face of the Pentagon before it mysteriously disappeared. When the absence of surface impacts and the size of a 737 including height of the tail are weighed, it is probable that a smaller plane was used to affect the attack on the Pentagon.
I defy anyone to find an A3 Skywarrior in the hands of any Arab terrorist on 9-11 or any other day. There are only three sources of those jets: 1.) a few (3 to 6) remaining in USAF inventory; or 2.) Davis Monthan AFB where many jets are stored due to lack of humidity; or 3.) the fleet of 12-15 once owned by Hughes and now controlled by Raytheon after that corporation acquired Hughes.
Jon Carlson and I are convinced that the plane used to attack the Pentagon is an old USAF / Navy plane designated as the A3 Skywarrior.
The wingspan of an A3 is 74 feet and in the Navy version the wings were designed to fold up for storage on an aircraft carrier (visible on the drawing above). At a distance, painted like an American Airlines plane, this plane would easily be mistaken for a 737, 757, 767 type of aircraft because the two engines hang under the wing but are of far smaller dimensions than the 9 foot diameter jets on a 757 that not only hang under the wing but also hang lower than the bottom of the fuselage.
That is an important point because there were no marks on the Pentagon lawn of those two jet engines dragging the ground and they would have based on how low the Pentagon was hit. Said another way, forget about the fuselage dragging on the ground. The engines of a 757 would have been plowing the Pentagon lawn but that did not happen.
The wingspan of a 757 is 124 feet 10 inches. The width of the overall opening, even what is visible as possible wing marks slamming into the face of the building is closer to 74 feet than it is 124 feet 10 inches. In short, there is 50 feet missing to substantiate the Official Lie put out by Washington, DC as to what hit the Pentagon. Said another way, there is 25 feet on each side of the centerline of the strike point (that 14-16 foot hole left in the side of the Pentagon) that left no evidence of a wider wing span 757 hitting the building.
They also cannot (or more appropriately will not) explain what happened to the two 9 foot diameter engines that mysteriously disappeared. Some official government sources claim that the fire was so hot it melted the engines to nothing, yet they claim they found DNA of the passengers. That math does not compute, or the science either.
I remember the first conversation I had with Karen Kwiatkowski, a retired Lieutenant Colonel who was in the Pentagon that day. She is the lady that went public about the Office of Special Plans where they were falsifying the intelligence regarding Iraq. She vividly remembers being downstairs and around the corner in about 10 minutes to help get people out and the FBI agents were at the CITGO station confiscating the video tapes of what hit the Pentagon.
Other eyewitnesses have stated that they smelled explosives such as cordite, not burning jet fuel. Those were military witnesses that know that exploded ordnance smells like.
What little video evidence there is does show a white trail of smoke before the Pentagon explosion. Jet fuel burns dark at sea level and jets do not leave white contrails at sea level. What does leave a white trail of smoke at all elevations is the solid fuel of a rocket, Thiokol in most rockets being the type of solid fuel.

Dov S. Zakheim was sworn in as the Under Secretary of Defense (Comptroller) and Chief Financial Officer for the Department of Defense on May 4, 2001.
Left the Bush Administration in mid-2004 for Booz Allen.
How Does Zakheim Fit In ?
He helped mold the Mid-East policy, and controlled the Pentagon purse strings.
Thanks to him, Israel, and their militia (Turkey), are awash in F-15's, F-16's, and the latest in offensive and defensive missile systems. Israel has a space program, ICBM's, nukes, and lots more.
Zakheim, who is a dual Israeli/American citizen and a Shul Rabbi, has stalked the halls of US government for 25 yrs. He has set defense policy which influenced Presidents Reagan, Clinton and Bush Sr. and Jr. This rabid Zionist was the controller of the Pentagon when an audit discovered over a trillion dollars was missing.
Most of Israel's armament was obtained thanks to him. Squads of US F-16 and F-15 were classified as military surplus and sold to Israel at a fraction of their value.
Zakheim is a rabid Zionist, who carries an Israel passport and is considered to be one of the top members of the secretive Illuminati . He predicts 9/11 and by sheer coincidence the Pentagon is hit by a remote controlled jet (Zakheim's ' SPC ' corporation is the premier company in the field).
http://www.sysplan.com/Radar/FTS
During his tenure as controller at the Pentagon from May 4, 2001 to March 10, 2004, over one trillion dollars was unaccounted for.
Military information is jeopardized, military contractors billed the US for Israeli items, $50 million fighter jets are classified as surplus and the list goes on and on. As the scandal of the missing 3 trillion dollars surfaces the Rabbi quickly resigns.
According to the US Government's own website which is specifically designed to debunk conspiracy theories:
http://usinfo.state.gov/.../2005/Jun/28-581634.html
With regard to the World Trade Center attacks, Mr. Meyssan ignores or dismisses the facts that:
"THE GOVERNMENT DECLARES):
"Boeing commercial aircraft can not be remotely controlled"
This assertion is false.
Dov Zakheim was the Pentagon's comptroller and CFO during 9/11. Over $3 trillion is unaccounted for during his tenure. He was (is?) Corporate VP at System Planning Corporation, a major player in the "Homeland Security" industry. One of the products that SysPlan sells is the Command Transmitter System, a remote control system for planes, boats, missiles and other vehicles2 .

Jeff ok, now I am calling you simple. You are simple. VERY.
If you can't figure out what the importance is of reception of cell and air phone calls are, you are not only simple minded but hopeless.
I find it amusing that "you" make the calls on what is a threat to "national security."
Please don't trouble your beautiful mind with such trivial things.
You are incapable of rational and logical thought. You are also trolling.
Ok, everyone else, I am done with Jeff.
Changing the subject . . . does anyone have any thoughts as to why this "RE RELEASE as NEW" of a 2002 video has been done now?
I think we ALL get it (except for 2 people). Could it be that more of America is waking up to 9/11 Hoax Truth?
Could it be it is a smoke screen to get us to "look here" while they do something "over there".
I think the RE Broadcast as a New Release is to divide people and also distract from something else. Perhaps the real reason the Chimp is sending troops to the mexican border and it is NOT immigrants.

Onyx: It all depends on what shape screen you have and how big the window is in which you are measuring. I was doing it, crudely, with a strip of paper, and allowing that the missile would be further away than the impact point. I merely divided the height of the Pentagon by the number of sixteenths of an inch it measured BACK a little from impact, allow for the perspective thang, and I gave the missile 2/16, even though that was bigger than the measure I got. I was erring on the side of bigger object on both ends, and I did it with both videos.

Jeff - the connection of cell phones from hijacked airplanes is 1) the public is supposed to believe the passengers made calls substantiating the hijacked idea. 2) cell phones did not have that capability at that time ergo the connection.
Jeff - you keep repeating one statement over and over instead of answering any questions we ask.
Sort of like hmmmmm "NO CHILD LEFT BEHIND" whenever Bush is asked any question he isn't prepared to answer.
Why not take your time and read up on the 9/11 facts on any of the websites being posted and then return to this blog to talk intelligently.
Oh, one more thing, the comment "love it or leave it" meaning all who disagree should vacate America. Thats been said before and I believe those of us against Vietnam and demanding answers proved to be right.

In order for the following to be accurate, it had to be some type of a "Plane" rather than a missile that struck the Pentagon.
It WAS an A-3 and it carried missiles under its wings whick fired just prior to impact, resulting in the massive fireball and the smeel of cordite:
Cheney was in the Washington bunker, while Bush was at the school.He was in command. Scholars for 911 Truth point out http://www.scholarsfor911truth.org/...
that Secretary of Transportation, Mineta Confirm this. Others point out he was also conducting numerous military drills that day that did confuse land workers.
Mineta's testimony is devastating," observed James H. Fetzer, Ph.D., McKnight Professor at the University of Minnesota. Fetzer is the founder and co-chair of the scholars' society, which recently joined with Judicial Watch in calling for release of documents, films and videos, and physical evidence withheld from the public by the administration. "It pulls the plug on the Commission's contention there was no advance warning that the Pentagon was going to be hit."
According to Secretary Mineta's testimony, which is in the public domain, when he (Mineta) arrived at an underground bunker at the White House (known as the Presidential Emergency Operations Center), the Vice President was in charge. "During the time that the airplane was coming in to the Pentagon", he stated, "there was a young man who would come in and say to the Vice President, 'The plane is 50 miles out.' 'The plane is 30 miles out.'
"And when it got down to, 'The plane is 10 miles out,'" Mineta continued, "the young man also said to the Vice President, 'Do the orders still stand?' And the Vice President turned and whipped his neck around and said, 'Of course the orders still stand. Have you heard anything to the contrary?'" One way to construe these remarks could be that the orders were to shoot down the plane.
The scholars suggest that that is an implausible interpretation. The Pentagon, they observe, may be the most heavily defended building in the world. If the orders had been to "shoot it down," then no doubt it would have been shot down. Moreover, there would have been no apparent reason for the young man to have expressed concern over whether or not "the orders still stand." Shooting it down, under the circumstances, would have been the thing to do.
"The only reasonable interpretation of the orders," Fetzer observed, "is that the incoming aircraft should not be shot down, which would have been an obvious source of anxiety for an aide. Since it contradicts the official story about the Pentagon," he added, "it had to be suppressed and was not even included in The 9/11 Commission Report." And other scholars, including Professor David Ray Griffin of Claremont Graduate University, have drawn the same conclusion.

Thanks Jeff. You can take a nap now, please.
Plunger: "A3" refers both to a plane that carries cruise missiles and the missiles themselves. I know, first hand, that there are jets the size of sports cars, and we all know flying things don't need pilots anymore. There has been testimony that a plane came in and veered off. It could have been the one Mineta heard Darth Fudd let approach. Cruise missiles are incredibly fast, maneuverable and accurate. I think they would have wanted all those features the most for that particular display. There are cruise missiles that look like toy fighter planes. There are all shapes and sizes of them, and I'm sure there are bigger ones we don't know about. This footage leaves the matter of size pretty darn hard to pin down. The only thing it shows for CERTAIN is that it was NOT Flight 77. I'm sticking with the missile story for the reason of the speed, accuracy and maneuverability. THAT could account for the fancy ass, almost super-human, trajectory it took into the side of the Pentagon, and the explosion from it was identical to known missile impact explosions.

JPentz,
Calm down. As a white girl I'm glad that you don't believe the govt's CT about 9/11. And I know that other self-identifying white folks also disagree. My point, and if you take issue with it, please speak directly to my point, is that of the people who believe the ridiculous govt version of events, as in other cases of govt malfeasance, are disproportionately white. I've been talking to folks in Atlanta mostly but across the South about 9/11 since the attack occurred and overwhelmingly black folks, when presented with the evidence (but most without specific evidence and using simple logical deduction) don't believe the govt version. It's white folks on the Right and Left that always laugh or get very angry at me and usually do not want to discuss the facts of that day or the investigation.
It seemed to bother you for me to point out the racial explanation behind this phenomenon. I hope you can constrain your emotions and hear the case I present. If you can hear me without getting upset, you'll find that it makes sense and has historical consistency.
Black folks were reported to overwhelmingly believe that JFK was killed by the govt, at the time of the assassination. There as well, disproportionately represented in the group believing the lone assassin theory were white folks.
Same thing with Hurricane Katrina's non-response. When polled as to whether or not the non-response had anything to do with the race of the victims of the tragedy, more than 9 of 10 blacks said yes while only 3 of 10 whites.
White folks on the whole, don't believe the govt is capable of truly nefarious behavior. Not all white folks, but most. And while people of all ethnicities buy into various govt propaganda tricks, white folks are disproporationately(on the high side) represented in these groups.
It's no more a personal slight against you than it would be to state that almost all the whites in America played either an active or passive part in the genocide of the natives and subsequent enslavement of Africans.
That's just a fact concerning the role of whites in the history of America. But it doesn't necessarily mean anything about you.
I hope that clears that up some. I've done anti-racism training and its usually difficult for white people to hear anything negative about whites as a group, regardless of the historical accuracy or overwhelming statistical evidence regarding current events.
I hope you can keep a more open mind. The truth can be liberating.

Sadly, the 'real' data is most likely digital, which means that it has the 'possiblity' of being highly manipulated(since digital images have a higher data rate sequence compresstion alogrythem. And also since the scale of the SAT images will be so fast, and the scale of compresstion will be so large due to the scale of distance, that it will be a data set like the ones used in Hollywood, hence affording the opportunity for a MASSIVE digital image manipulation event. On the Alex Jones website shows what I presume is a altered video sequence of a plane that was added into the frames, to show what it would look like if the 757 did hit the pentagon. Now in a very short time someone was able to make this 'representation', what about the government with there 'high tech' video and audio labs at the NSA and CIA? href="http://www.prisonplanet.com/images/may2006/170506doctored.gif" target="_blank">http://www.prisonplanet.com/images/may2006/170506doctored.gif
Is anyone familiar with Digital Holographic Imageing? It is the art of taking differing images, from differnt agles, and degrees, and exstrapulating a 3 dementional image from the target image, from all the images, pieceing together all of them into one like a puzzle if you will. This can be done with the SATs, and 84 videos, etc, and then of course a digital image of a 757 could be placed in, then highly complex programs can add the right light reflectance, and angels of shadows, calculate the presise timing of the trajectory of the plane, speed, wind, etc, and presto, you have a 757, from many differnt angels, all showing it slam into the pentagon. Even though there was no debri, no marks on the lawn, and the physics of the trajectory of the 757 defy the laws of physics themselfs, and no human could pull it of(which goes back to the remote theory). But yet, the american people will 'see' this for themselfs and will believe, for they have believed less things.
What needs to be done is exactly what many have said when the 'original' images came out; which was on 9/11, for I saw them on T.V., and that is to concentrate on the rest of the case, yes case, we are building a case angainst the government, and the rest of the case is huge, this is just a small anomolie, that they are going to use to distract us. Looking for bullets, when the gun has been stolen. There case is weak, and they know it, but the power of T.V. is known by them, they have perfected this mind control application, and what is seen on it will be believed. If our case rest solely upon such weak 'anomolies', then many minds will become darkend again. No, we must move forward, making our case stronger by diging deeper, and exspanding ourselfs further into the rabbit hole than just 9/11, there are still crimes in which men have been guilty for 50 years, and justice has still not found there bloody hands, yes, we all have a part to play in the body of the Human collective, and end the end all be be revield, even the things that society has forgotten about, even the darkest of there secrets; you know, the ones in which the imagination cannot even conjure, this is the age of transitions, and many are coming there way now, let us dig deeper, so that we may all share is spreading truth, and accelerating these transitions even further to critical mass.

IS THIS THE BEST YOU HAVE?
Well seriously though, a stop motion camera positioned at a guard/check point that fails to capture high speed motion?
What good would this type of antiquated technology be if a bomb ladened truck were to crash through the post?
The truck MIGHT be seen, if it were captured in the right frame.
Sorry for the BOLD, but America's being fooled.
I'm not saying or suggesting that the government fixed the evidence to go around the story, or anything.
Who would ever get the crazy notion to fix evidence, facts around a story?
What I'm asking and attempting to point out is, that with this official re release of the exact same stop motion video, that has already been pointed out, exists on the Internets, that the re release doesn't answer questions, it begs for further questions to be asked.
America can not accept the line that the Government has sold us on this.
Again, I ask.
FOR A GOVERNMENT THAT IS SO TECHNOLOGICALLY ADVANCED, BOTH IN IT'S CIVILIAN SECTOR AND IN IT'S PRIVATE AND MILITARY SECTORS, IS THIS GRAINY, STOP MOTION CAMERA THE BEST THAT OUR GOVERNMENT'S MONEY CAN BUY?

The cameras are only set to detect things moving at ground speeds, and shoot in conservation mode. The Pentagon is protected by its own anti-aircraft weapons, NORAD, radar, etc. NOTHING can get near, nothing can even get on their heading from many miles away, without them knowing. So there is NO need to have more sophisticated surveillance cameras by the security gates. This is NOT new insofar as 4 or 5 frames were previously released; it IS new insofar as it gives you the whole pertinent footage from two cameras, and we are better able to tell for sure what the footage says and does not say. It unequivocally backs up the impact zone's assertion that it wasn't a 757 that hit the Pentagon. And I am actually a little surprised the jerks would let it out to add more fuel to our fire. I'm assuming people are still after the gas station and other surveillance cameras' footage.... Maybe we'll get it. Probably not.

It's now 11 feet in diameter, but that's at its widest at the nose, and then it seems to get markedly skinnier right behind the nose. Wuh? The clearer you can make the video, the weirder it gets.

You didn't tell me your rmeasurement of the buidling height.
If your screen measurement for the "missile" was 2/16 th, as you say, and your scaling calculation indicated the real height of the "missile" was less than 5 ft then your measured height of the building must have been 1.5" (60x(2/16)/5=1.5)
Your measurement of the missile is about 1/32 or 1.5 times larger than my measurement (different image or screen size), but your building is 3.8 times taller. Some one made a bad measurement or calculation and I've triple checked mine.

99 - a 757 fuselage is 12' 4" in diameter. Looks to me like it is right in the ballpark with your new estimate of 11 ft.
The Saturn V rocket that put men on the moon is only about 30 feet in diameter. So this missile of yours must be between 1/2 and 1/3 the size of the Saturn V moon launch rocket????
I think we are looking at a 757 and I want to know how it got there, who is complicit and how we're going to hold those fuckers accountable.
The skinniness just behind the nose might be the darker paint of AMERICAN AIRLINES in contrast against the silver aluminum skin. There's also a dark area further back that might be the shadow under the wings, but that is stretch due the poor quality of the images.

Oh, dear, Onyx! It all depends on which size I open the video window too, and I made so many marks on my strip of paper, that I finally just put the ruler straight up against my monitor screen, and started running the math on my widget calculator, now based on the actual height of building (77') instead of guestimates from last night, and I dint write a bit of it down, and I just two minutes ago cleared the calculator. Last night I had the impact place too far north, and it was (on that screen) 1.5", but now it's closer to 14/16" or 1" and the missile is just a little under 2/16", but it's so damn fuzzy it could really be closer to 1/16"... my fiddling with the picture is increasing my notion that that "nose" looks like it's mounted on a long pipe!!!
So. My plan is to make a strong cup of coffee, and smoke a couple carcinogens on my front porch, and then have back at it. It's silly really, because we can only get so scientific with this fuzzy mess, but Bluebear2's link really helps with orientation.

Agent 99 has given the building height as " 77 feet, 3.5 inches high" in her post #327.This agrees with the website I linked way back at #171. (I did make a mistake there regarding the plane and corrected it shortly later)
Plunger's link sure is interesting.That wing tip sure does look like folding portion the navy version of the A3. It is sheared clean at the fat end. If it was the tip of a larger one piece wing it surely would be ragged, not straight across.
Considereing the amount of fuel in a 757 it also seems the flames go out extremely fast. I would expect fuel to be splashed all over the face of the building and continue to burn for some time.
About 20 years ago a B52 went down at Mather AFB near here. The resulting fire burned for hours and it left a trail of black smoke across the sky that could be seen for 50 or more miles. It blocked out the sun in my location of about 15 miles from the site.

Bluebear - My 60 foot estimate was from 5 stories at 10 ft each plus a large cornice = approx 60 ft. I believe the 77 ft number is probably more accurate. However, this makes the plane height even bigger. My calc goes from 12.5 ft to 16.5 ft using the new 77 ft building height. Definitely too big to be a missile and right in the ballpark for a 757

I don't know how my link messed up.....?
While my coffee's brewing, Onyx, I should add that I find the first video, with the dirty lens must not be a straight picture lens, things seem too far out of whack in it. The second one is much better, but that is just a long streak of smoke, same width as "nose" in first video.
I can't get to 757 because it was not there IMMEDIATELY upon impact, didn't do enough damage, and NO WAY can that be. Plus, since it's CLEAR to anyone who knows even a little about how things are done there that NO plane, or missile, could have approached without them knowing ALL about it and doing something dispositive about it. So it was CERTAINLY planned and allowed to happen. I was watching the tv just moments after impact and there was NO evidence of a plane then, and it irked me at the very moment they were showing it. I'll shut up till I go back at those videos one last time, and I will write down my measurements to give you.

This is not new information. I haven't heard Judicial Watch saying what is obvious, that this isn't new. That makes me skeptical of them being that they put so many resources into getting this released.
I heard on the Mike Malloy show (and I haven't checked it out myself) that Judicial Watch is a right-wing organization.
I find it very curious that this group did not demand the other videos that the Pentagon has confiscated. Of course, the Pentagon says that this video is the only one that shows the impact. However:
1) There is probably a video out there that will show the object in full view (not necessarily the impact, itself).
2) Who's to say they are outright lying?
If Judicial Watch wanted to get to the bottom of this, they would demand to see ALL videos in the Pentagon's custody --- and not accept the notion that this 2 fps bit of useless footage is the only one of value.

Okay, Onyx. I enlarged both to biggest they will go on my 20" flat screen monitor without distortion. Clearest I can get them is to turn them black and white with contrast up full.
Video One, with filthy lens: fast moving object nose is 2/16" at widest point, and 8/16" long. MUCH scrutiny tells me it definitely gets thinner, almost by half, at about 6/16" from leading edge. The building at approximate impact site is 13/16". I'm bothered by these frames because the "nose" does NOT seem to be on the right angle of approach. Either lens distortion or something more nefarious?
Video Two, cleaner lens: smoke streak measures between 2/16" and 3/16" and is 14/16 long. The building at approximate point of impact is 1" exactly. That smoke streak seems to be traveling at a wrong angle as well, only in the other direction.
Video One, with stopped action at point of longest "nose", looks as if it is travelling perpendicular to the west wall and will hit north of actual impact site. Video Two, with stopped action at longest smoke streak, makes it look as if it wants to hit south of actual impact site.
So, without regard to actuality of objects and our eyesight, just on crude measuring: Video One puts speeding bullet at almost 12', tapering back to ?', in diameter; and Video Two puts smoke streak waffling between about 8' and 12' in diameter.
Maybe even a little bigger in both instances because of perspective IF traveling from the angle reported.
What the heck IS that? I've seen something shaped like that in some picture of missile arsenals, but that would do more damage too. Please TRY to think of something besides 757 because that story REALLY doesn't fit what I saw at the time and all the data we've collected up to now, and I want to make sure we have exhausted all the other possibilities before we pop, or give up. I know dropping prejudices and concentrating can yield amazing things. I'm on it.

The image in the first movie and the still at Stop George #215 first appears to be coming in at a downward angle and slightly towards the camera.
After a closer look it could also be envisioned as coming in at an angle away from the camera. In that case we coud be seeing the nose and an end view of a wing with an engine pod in the forground. The bright white area could be the top of the wing.
Assuming the object in question is moving away from the camera and we are seeing the top of the wing, the nose and an engine pod - compare the 757 and the A-3 below. Notice the engine pod in relation to the nose.
Then watch this video of an A-3 (WMV format).
I'm leaning towards the A-3 theory after this and Plungers link I left at #333.
If only we had the other videos!

Bluebear2, and Onyx, I'm freakin'... what I've been staring at all day sure seems to resemble a Global Hawk RQ-4A or 4B, or a Predator RQ/MQ-1 or MQ-9 (Predator B). I will certainly now turn to scrutinizing the A-3.
The camera is at the north end of the west wall of Pentagon, and whatever struck it was supposed to be coming from a southwesterly angle, heading northeast to smack the Pentagon. So what we're seeing should be coming slightly toward the camera. I also don't see any TAIL in either video... and a UAV would explain that better, but off to A-3 land I go....

Could probably raise whole ciity blocks full of children to healthy adulthood on the cost of just one Bluebear.
I'm looking at "noses" and/or short, stubby jobs with skinniness behind, and I'm still leaning toward the Predator or Sky Hawk, because of the one turbo and the diameter tapering down so drastically after the nose. They also are near our size calculations, go fast enough, and could have left debris like we saw in Plunger's link. Since they're so much lighter than a 757, that would also account for the lack of 757-like damage. They look particularly apt in side-view drawings, but also the pictures, if you paint a dark nose on them.
I mean, the LENGTH of that "nose" in Video One, using the scale of the known Pentagon height, would seem to be over twenty feet. I'm not seeing any window-like blurs there either, making the drone theory even stronger. Whaddya spoze guys?
Skeptic: Thanks for your kind words.
Onyx: While stumbling around in the military flying object zone, I really think I've come up with an alternative, here, that satisfies both our criteria.

OK, so I've read just about every post on the thread now. It took a long time, but well worth it. It seems tho, that Jeff, poor soul, is part of that group that thinks putting on a uniform equates to protecting our freedoms. Sorry, Jeff, we protect our own freedoms, that is why we stand to protest our own government's bullshit. I know that's a tricky concept for you, so just "think about it." To boot, you are about as boring as snot. Your too-often repeated argument about the release of other Pentagon tapes giving the terrorists what they wany is utter arse. How about this: what the terrorists want is for Americans to remain divided amongst themselves, and for us to distrust our government. I think, then, that not releasing the other footage of the Pentagon crash/strike, is giving the terrorists what they want. Again, "think about it." And then go away.
Ingemar, I have a Master's in Multicultural Ed, and I agree/understand the points you are making. But this is not the right forum. I tried to read back and figure out what got you started on your rant, which just seemed to pop out of the blue, and I couldn't locate it. If you want to lambast Jeff or Ricky for their idiocy go ahead, but for the most part if you are railing against white folks here for the past, present, and future transgressions of the dominant white male paradigm, you have got the wrong crowd. The white folks who are regulars here "get it", if you take my meaning. Including my own white male self. I say this as a friend, because I know where you are coming from, but the tack you take, which is perfectly appropriate in other situations, makes you seem a little "unhinged". It's no secret that Bush's approval ratings for African-Americans is under 2%.

Found a piece in my A-3 investigating that shows really clearly that the blue tarp thing being carried was one of several TENTS being used on the scene for various things. That mystery is solved to my satisfaction. Some people are leaning toward an A-3 because eyewitnesses described what hit as having two engines under the wings. Evidence of only one was found that we know of. The old Skyhawks look more like the video "nose", have one jet engine, and two missiles under the wings...?
It really would have to be a highly maneuverable and fast craft, and there was NO evidence of duel engine damage in the pictures from before the roof cave in (and none in "nose" video). I think we should be scouring the web for pictures of drones. (UAVs)

Whew! Lots of energy spent on this topic.
For the enthusiasts of vehicle identification: if you deduce the kind of vehicle correctly and it is not a 757, what do you do with that knowledge?
I agree that a stop-action video reel doesn't show much, and I am not convinced we see anything like a 757, and that other evidence presented elsewhere about the trajectory, the clipping of light poles, and other accounts persuade me even more.
But what of it? If this atttack was a self-inflicted wound arranged by WH, Zionists, Christian-Rightists, or the Pentagon---what would that mean?
And if it was truly a terrorist attack and part of a larger,grander and more complex operation, what would that mean?
Agent 99 says the Pentagon is virtually invulnerable and has all sorts of sophisticated protection, then asks "why wasn't it working that day?" I ASSUME it has all that protection, but I am aware of no evidence supporting the existence of such defenses. So I hesitate to go down that road pending further evidence.
The problem with truth is it is not (in my limited experience) the sum of half-truths---or half-facts if you will.
I want the other tapes. And if they don't show anything definitive, I think there should be a righteous and open investigation addressing all the half-facts and speculations. As much as I admire the work of the critics and scholars I have read on this topic, I am wary of going the last mile on conspiracy---probably because I just do not want to believe it. But I have no problem at all with locating justice for this Administration's criminally incompetent behavior.

I have hesitated to post my conclusions of this "new" video. Firstly, I really wanted to consider all sides before clamering onto one thesis. Secondly, there seems to be so much energy here on this board being put into proving that it shows a missile. Quite frankly, I didn't want to disrupt that momentum. I think if you all read my posts in this thread, you will recognize that I fully believe in MIHOP. My belief, however, is based on the collapse of the towers (especially WTC7). I am quite skeptical about a missile slamming into the Pentagon. That's not to say that I discard the whole notion. Clearly there are things that are difficult to explain away. And NO one will convince me that a flight school flunkie flew that plane. Having said all of that, I want to refer you all HERE to this small but very interesting thread from yesterday at DU.
I think we have all been looking at this photograph from the wrong perspective. I assume that most of you, like myself, thought that the white streak was the airplane. In which case, it is not wide enough to be a plane, nor is it shaped correctly. Now I think it is exhaust. This poses a problem because exhaust is not always seen from a plane at ground level. On the other hand, I've never seen a plane at ground level moving at 350+MPH.
I guess what stops me from buying the missile theory now, is if you look at the thread linked above, someone has very clearly pointed out the tail section. In fact, it appears the plane really IS behind that strange barrier in the foreground. If you look at it like that , the white streak begins to look more and more like exhaust. In any case, there is clearly something taller than the trees streakin behind that box.
Please take a look and let me know what you think.
Ari, good for you to be concentrating on your own life. Sounds like a fun one --- being in Europe and all. When you catch a moment though, I hope you will still refer to the websites I posted above about WTC7 and it's collapse.

99 - I'm back and rested. This morning I used Microsoft Photo Editor to blow the image up to 1000%. At this size I could count pixels and the there is a handy readout in the lower left corner that gives you coordinates in x,y pixels.
This is what got: Building height = 30 pixels, fuselage height = 6 pixels, overall height = 11 pixels, and overall length = 63 pixels.
Do the math using 77.3 feet for the actual building height and the mystery object is 162 ft long x 28.3 ft overall height with the nose being 15.5 ft high.
If you assume the elongated dark spot on the top of the fuselage a little ways back from the nose is the AMERICAN AIRLINES logo and the two bright spots under the fuselage at about midway back are the engines it sure looks like a 757. The object size is also an almost a perfect fit with a 757.
The two underside bright spots (if they are the engines) are staggered in such a way that it would imply the plane is coming at the camera or going away from the camera at about a 30 to 45 degree angle. Overhead plots that I have seen show that it was coming toward the camera. If it is coming towards the camera my size calcs are err on the small side.
The case is settled for me, but I understand your skepticism. I'll keep reading to see what you come with.

Quotes from Jefferson:
"Who will govern the governors? There is only one force in the nation that can be depended upon to keep the government pure and the governors honest, and that is the people themselves. They alone, if well informed, are capable of preventing the corruption of power, and of restoring the nation to its rightful course if it should go astray. They alone are the safest depository of the ultimate powers of government."
"When the government fears the People, that is Liberty. When the People fear the Government, that is tyranny."
"No other sure foundation can be devised for the preservation of freedom and happiness... Preach a crusade against ignorance; establish and improve the law for educating the common people. Let our countrymen know that the people alone can protect us
against the evils [of misgovernment]." - to George Wythe, 1786.
"Every government degenerates when trusted to the rulers of the people alone. The people themselves, therefore, are its only safe depositories."
"Single acts of tyranny may be ascribed to the accidental opinion of a day; but a series of oppression's, begun at a distinguished period, and pursued unalterably through every change of ministers, too plainly prove a deliberate systematically job of reducing us to slaves."
"The liberty of speaking and writing guards our other liberties."
- Reply to Address, 1808
"Most [revolutions] have been [closed] by a subversion of that liberty [they were] intended to establish." - to George Washington, 1784
"[Oppose] with manly firmness [any] invasions on the rights of the people." Draft Virginia Constitution, 1776
"Most codes extend their definitions of treason to acts not really against one's country. They do not distinguish between acts against the government, and acts against the oppression's of the
government. The latter are virtues, yet have furnished more victims to the executioner than the former. Real treasons are rare; oppressions frequent. The unsuccessful strugglers against
tyranny have been the chief martyrs of treason laws in all countries." - Report on Spanish Convention, 1792
Brothers and Sisters, let us always remember these wise words of old, and the many others, that were warnings, warnings that are now upone us. The Declaration of Independence was created, for the exact reasons, and governmental attitudes found in Europe during the founding fathers day. Interesting how history repeats itself, because that same power is carried down by there bloodlines, that is why it is a constant continuation of things.
Just remember what we are fighting for, and soon now it is going to get crazy, lest we always keep our heads, and try to spread reason, and work together when the shit hits the fan. We might be spread out, cut off literaly from our modern convienances, small groups, look out for each other, and show others the way out , wich is love towards people of like mind, yes, there will be another revolution, and another Declaration of Independence!!

There are always "Jeffs" that miraculously "show up" whenever these issues are debated online. Anyone ever been at a forum/blog debating 9/11, and suddenly these posters will show up and although they'll claim that the idea of 9/11 being an inside job is akin to believing in Bigfoot, you can tell that they're inordinately well versed in the details of the "official" conspiracy theory? ...as in, it doesn't jive, because if they really didn't care or give any substantial thought to it, chances are they wouldn't be so eager to slavishly kiss the ass of the Bushco.
However, get into a discussion in real life about 9/11, and oddly enough, such "disinterested" defenders of Bushco are never to be found. Interesting, huh?
Unfortunately, the "Jeffs" bullshit usually does serve to waste time drawing informed and well-meaning people into futile debate, and that's the point. Some of the "Jeffs" may be plants, spooks, but I'm sure many of em are your typical "All Amurikan" He-Man-Retards whose limited intellect reflects a deeply seated need to rely on oversimplistic jingoism, chauvinism and the nationalistic propaganda of the corporate/state nexus.
Part of why the "Jeffs" choose to deny the facts is that such "manly" retards actually enjoy violence and war; it's how they were raised, it's pervasive in our corporate culture, and these ding-a-lings get a major erection over the idea of everlasting war, because within that social climate lie the perfect justification for denouncing all those "liberals" that culturally, the War Pigs are always uneasy around.
From the perspective of the War Pigs and many - not all - who comprise the jarhead/jock demographic, the climate of war allows for what they see as the barrier of "political correctness" to come crumbling down ...and they love that, because they don't like having to hide their contempt and hatred for "soft" emotions, critical, analytical thinking, namby-pamby "liberals," and so forth.
Thus one of the right's major talking points is to continuously "remind" everyone that "We're at WAAAAAAARRRRR!!!" because deep down, they're glad we are, because they're mentally ill people with diseased souls ...the very ones who when you attempt to outline how the pervasive corporate mentality has in fact created an atmosphere that encourages and promotes such spiritual deficiencies, they'll flat out deny that these long established social/belief systems have any impact on individuated and collective existence, and instead will beat their chest over "liberals" wanting to "blame someone else for their problems" ...you know the type: dumb as a stump and fightin' mad to prove it.
We're dealing with a pathology here: the rightist movement is grounded in psychological projection; they impute to others what they themselves are most guilty of, and unconsciously are most fearful of.
So ignore the "Jeffs;" if they're spooks, it pisses em off, and if they're a run of the mill ass kisser, it'll make em feel empowered, and they'll start bragging about since no one is responding to them, no one must be capable of refuting their claims ...which countless people on this blog have already done numerous times over. Kudos everyone!

Speaking of love Jeff, what do you think, that is about what is going on in the world today? Do you think everything is normal, and like it appears, or have you not noticed history, and how things in the past were always not as they appeard? What do you feel like are some solutions to the many problems of our planet, everything aside, this planet by the hand of man is dying, the water is drying up, holes in the ozone, weather modification, depleation of natural resources when we have had the technology for about 50 years to harness energy from the active vacume, massive die offs of species, deforestation, Earth changes, manipulation of the Iionispheare, magnitism, electromagnitism, the fluctuations of the sun, comets, mutating dieseases, world hungry, world poverty, etc.
Yes there are so many problems, and what we should really do is come together as a RACE OF HUMAN, to try to save ourselfs before we become exstinct. But instead you have greedy people in power who could fix most of these problems in about 5 years; if they arent the ones that created them to begin with, but instead of fixing them they send there mindless drones out into the public to distract people, and lead people away from solutions, in fact who really care about 9/11 anyway, its just a very, very, very, small drop in the bucket.

We can't piss away a fortune on an illegal war, give tax cuts to the richest among us and continue to borrow billions from China and Japan forever, you know? So some countries took action or are taking actions to dump the dollar as a reserve currency.
In 2000, Saddam Hussein announced that he would be selling oil in euros, bypassing the dollar and the New York and London oil markets. He actually even managed to sell the oil in euros for a short time until the US invaded. The US military's first action was to seize the Oil Ministry and switch the sales back to the dollar (some of you might recall this happening behind the scenes of the lawlessness in Baghdad that lead to the lootings).
And now Iran has threatened to open it's own market as well, and sell in euros. This was supposed to happen in March but keeps getting pushed back. Probably due to the threats from the US that we will nuke them. And this threat of nuclear retaliation is the reason they are seeking nuclear technology themselves since nuclear weapons are the only deterrant from nuclear weapons.
And even little ol' Venezuela has begun selling oil in euros and has even bartered with other countries for oil, as well.
If the dollar were to lose favor as a reserve currency because of this, our economy would be swallowed by the massive debt we accumulate with abandon. Largely because we don't make anything here anymore and import way too much.
You might recognize the countries I've listed here as 'threats to national security', well if you look at their ability to hurt us financially, then you have a better case than the ones The Powers That Be have currently been pushing on us about 'terrorism'.
So what this all boils down to is that 9/11 was the catalyst for the paradigm that would allow the United States to declare war on any country that attempts to undermine the dollar's global hegemony. And if you take into account that quite a lot of people in the government are millionaires with stock options and the like, you can see why this development would terrorize them.
This is not something that can be told the American public to get its permission because it would cause a financial panic like that of the Great Depression (or worse). Congress is probably aware of this situation which is why they rubber-stamp anything that authorizes use of force. The Dems know on which side their bread's buttered, which is why they pose no opposition. 9/11 is essentially a scam.
And it seems to be working marvelously...

Well, it's a perspective that needn't be necessarily rooted in cynicism ...however, yeah, if you study up on your Chomsky, you'll find how he frequently relies on the roots of political/social control that flourished in the early 20th century with ideological notions of the "manufacture of consent," "necessary illusions" and so forth, that translate into indoctrination of individuals, of the public mind largely internalizing very specific "values" and views that only benefit private power.
The corporations were given legal status as individuals while being *legally required* to act inhuman, inhumane, profits over people at any/all cost. So from there it's not difficult to understand where we're at now in corporate Amerika, and how so many people are literally brainwashed through apathy or chauvinism. The war racket usually requires the fairytale cover story, and a populace strategically tuned out and away from policy making decisons within their illusory "democracy" will often buy it hook, line and stinker because it's too hurtful to them to face the truth about empire and how power has operated from the dawn of time, which is to seek more of it while making everything and everyone around it think, look and act as it wants.

Jack Frost: I wasnt aware that the dollar being unstable was un-commone knowledge, but your right, the only reason why the dollar is still afloat at all is because they only 'say' it is, I mean with the debt at almost 9 trillion, yeah, the world bank is going to ask for the return of the loan; which is basically what is keeping US above water, and maybe the fact that the CIA runs in so much drugs, when they do demand it back from the government, the banks will automaticly demand home morgage's, and any other loan from people who have currency borrowed out, instintly bankrupting the american 'people'. Of course this is all a ruse, for the power holders of the Earth are all in bed with one another, and money is an illustion anyway, one in which to keep the upper hand over the common serfs like ourselfs.

Jeff, what evidence do you have for the allegation that Noam Chomsky is a Communist? Is he a member of the Communist party (that no longer exists)? Has he endorsed a violent overthrow of the U.S. government? Or is your accusation just a latter-day McCarthyite tactic?
Do you have a list in your hand of heretofore unidentified Communists, as McCarthy did? And even if Chomsky were to identify himself as a Communist, so what? How does that threaten you or me?
I can't imagine what could constitute greater evidence of hating America than what George W. Bush has created in a little over five years. He has engendered more hatred of America throughout the world than all the presidents before him, combined. On his worst day Noam Chomsky couldn't hate the United States more than does the man on the street in Paris, Berlin, Beijing, Caracas, Tokyo, New Delhi, Cairo, Athens, Buenos Aires, Managua, Auckland, Stockholm, and Rome.
I think we're a little too smart for you here, Jeff. The Limbaugh/Fox Network stuff doesn't fly for us.

I read JackFrost's commentary and I--well, I understood, but have trouble grasping the wherewithal it must take to have our leaders act this way, in unison. I suppose I am like the guy who says you can't put "government' and "secrets" or "competence" in the same sentence and expect to have it make sense. I am not literally that extreme in my judgement about government or our political class, but it seems implausible to me ---an organization of corporatists, zealots or ordinary-but-dedicated bureaucrats would have to find consensus on a lot of details before launching into the kind of adventure you describe. (This is not to say present reality does not resemble in remarkable detail that adventure---it surely does.)
And I also think you would be under-rating the professionalism of the military in our country. I believe there are many principled people who would know and resist the self-inflicted wound if they knew about it. And in an organization as large and necessarily involved as the US Military, how could they not get some whiff of it?
I agree that the threat to our economy is as you describe. I agree we are toast if the loans get called-in. But surely the hit-list of Euro-dollar holders knows this too and I cannot see what would prevent them from acting against us monetarily sooner rather than later. What are they waiting for?

Bluebear2, the A-3 has two engines... which doesn't fit known debris, and wingtips don't look as much like that piece in Plunger's link as possibly a panel off the nose or body of one of those UAVs. THAT would be why it was so light to carry off as well. I really think I'm onto something here. The video DOES show the fuselage narrowing behind the nose, just like those drones, and they're the right size.

Dredd: In answer to your question about the engines and the damage they caused, I'm with you all the way up until the conclusion. If you take a look at guardian's pictoral analysis of the extent of the initial damage to the building, you'll see that there was a great deal more damage done than just the primary 16' hole.
http://www.911review.com...gon/imgs/damage_comp.jpg
This means the premise of your question (wondering whether or how the two engines would fold up nicely and slip through the 16' hole) is unfounded. The engines did their own damage outside the primary hole, and probably contributed greatly to the eventual ~65 foot width of the collapsed section of building. There are many who seem to assume the damage was confined to only the 16' hole where the fuselage entered, but that's simply not true.
Jack Frost: I hope you don't take yourself seriously. I guess it's not enough to discuss a grand conspiracy without making up a new one, localized to this board. There is very little Jeff's posts and my posts have in common, other than that you disagree with them. In fact, I think Jeff's appeals to the terrorist threat to explain away oversight responsibilities are terribly wrong, and I don't think I've even read any posts by a Wally O'Diebold ... but you believe whatever your tin hat tells you.
The truth is, Ari stopped posting because Ari decided that spending several hours on this each day is a poor poor use of Ari's time, especially while Ari has a thesis to work on.

GTASH: You took the words right out of my mouth. I got up this noon, irked by the damn camera angle on that video. I, as you have seen, have been measuring my brains out, when there isn't any way for me to compensate for the funhouse mirror effect, and you can only sharpen a digital image such a very little bit.
Onyx: Well, you heard the man, and you heard me griping about it last night, once again, they only released it because it further clouds the issue. My gut still says that's a missile, I was willing to explore other avenues because of the size thing, but we just can't get a handle on the size thing with the screwy lenses. I don't think you were trying to look at anything but 757.
Bluebear2: We have to keep looking at things that fit the evidence. The stuff on pages relating to Plunger's site --- sorry I don't have the URL, but it's there --- convinced me that mysterious blue tarp thing was just one of a number of tents they had set out all over the area for firemen and clean-up purposes. That piece of debris in the pictures looked rounder, more conical, than an A-3 wing tip --- more like a piece of premolded metal or even plastic that popped off something... maybe wing, but closer to fuselage wing...?
We should also all try to remember that the Pentagon was very likely to have contained pieces of aircraft before anything happened. It could have been a fighter plane swooping down over the traffic, shooting a missile into the building and flying off, and the only debris we find is stuff that was inside the building already. It would have taken five minutes for whatever was left of what hit to get hauled away from the scene FROM THE INSIDE, leaving everybody hassling over the disperate scraps.
Occam's Razor buffs should heed that the very simplest explanation for what happened is that the navigation of those four 757s was taken over by remote control, two of them were smacked into pre-charged towers, and two of them aimed at DC, and the only thing that went wrong is that one of our boys shot down the one in Shanksville. I, of course, don't believe that the DC half of the operation was planned or executed like that.
But anyone insisting it was terrorists and hollering Occam's Razor, Occam believed in the laws of physics. You CAN'T break the laws of physics. WTC was charged with military grade high explosives in anticipation of planes, whether flown by terrorists or elephants, and the government was expecting this for months and months before it happened. Even if "terrorists" were involved, they had MAJOR help.
Self inflicted, false flag operation. Period. Laws of physics will not have it otherwise, because the only ones with the ability to get those building charged that way are in our government. These fiends can and do break all the laws of men, but not even they can break the laws of physics.
Don't be lazy. See for yourself. HERE.

the fight already came to our soil and civilians were already a target. You are a believer of the official story so then osama bin laden is the culprit. Killer of 3,000 civilians. and bush in response to the mass slaughter says "I don’t know where he is. Nor — you know, I just don’t spend that much time on him really, to be honest with you. I....I truly am not that concerned about him." Not even concerned about the man behind 3,000 deaths on American soil. 5 years after the attack, osama bin laden is still on the loose. Since youre a military man, i pose this question: "instead of sending 130,000 troops to iraq, why not send 130,000 troops to catch the murderer of 3,000 civilians on american soil. oh i forgot, I don’t know where he is.

I have looked at some other websites--pro and con--on the Boeing 757 matter and tried to establish in my own mind the dimensions of the craft and the apparent placement of the hole in the side of the Pentagon before the wall collapsed. It seems to me that it could have been a 757 after all.
The study performed by Purdue University (released in 2002) is the source of the photo-real comparison of a 757 beside the Pentagon model I saw on the Serendipity website. It was computer generated as a part an engineering study. The point of the study was to examine the way an aircraft would break-up when it hits something designed like the Pentagon--reinforced walls and columns, etc. It is pretty convincing to me. I think it is at least possible a 757 hit the Pentagon and literally shattered or was shredded as it passed thru the structure. Again, the Purdue study seems strong. You might check it out.

'I suppose I am like the guy who says you can't put "government' and "secrets" or "competence" in the same sentence and expect to have it make sense.'
And that's the way they like it.
If you had the choice would you rather be seen as an incompetent buffoon or a complicit criminal?
No surprise when caught politicians generally go with the former because with the incompetence angle, one can avoid the death penalty that comes with treason.
'And I also think you would be under-rating the professionalism of the military in our country.'
You have to understand that for the most part, the military was not involved in 9/11. Depending on where you look, you'll find that the military was engaged in somewhere between 5 and 15 simultaneuos wargames, all of which drew most of our air defense into up into northwest Canada and Alaska. A quick check of the map shows they were as far away from the events of 9/11 as they could be and still be on the continent. And the man who should have been in charge of the National Military Command Center (NMCC) on 9/11, Brigadier General Montague Winfield asked rookie Navy Captain Charles J. Leidig, Jr. on September 10 to stand in for him the next day. Not to mention that General Richard Myers was definitely playing along - remember he got promoted from 'acting' to full-fledged Chairman of the Joint Chiefs after 9/11.
And having the chain of command rules for hijacking changed in June of 2001 to include authorization from the Secretary of Defense before planes could be intercepted probably didn't help either. Especially when you consider that Rumsfeld has given 3 different accounts of his whereabouts that morning, and none of them explains why he was incommunicado for nearly 30 minutes after the North Tower was struck.
You see, you don't need the whole military to get involved, only the very top brass. Because if there's no one to give orders and authorization, the military is useless.
'But surely the hit-list of Euro-dollar holders knows this too and I cannot see what would prevent them from acting against us monetarily sooner rather than later.'
Because in that 'certified idiot' we have a belligerant administration that is willing to start wars to keep other countries from becoming independent of the dollar. Reference Iraq, our threats to Iran and our attempted coups against Hugo Chavez for examples of US 'deterrants'.
Hope this helps...

Second, Bluebear, please don't tell me you don't believe we went to the moon. As soon as I saw that I had my doubts but when he came up to the post with the electrical box I lost interest. It's obviously another post. I don't know who's playing games with the pictures but if it's the government and that's the kind of work they do, then they could never have pulled off 9/11. Something's very wrong here. I can't abide by those kinds of conspiracy theories.
Third, to all. There are much better ways to spend our time than to try and 'prove' a 757 didn't hit the Pentagon. The main effort is still in front of us, how to get rid of this disaster of an administration. I suggest we concentrate on that.

I just thought the photos were interesting - they obviously are doctored , but by whom is a whole nother question!
Just one more piece of the mystery.
As for going to the moon - I know that we were there for a fact. That is how we placed mirrors there with which the USS Liberty was communicating with the pentagon using modulated laser pulses.
No I don't have my tin foil hat on with that one!
The Liberty was the most sophisticated communication ship in the world and was in the Mediterranean spying on the Arabs and Israelis leading up to and during their 6 day war.
It was deliberatly attacked by the Isrealis even though it was Identified as an American ship.
Our government passed it off as an accident.
My college dorm-mate was one of four radio operators on duty at the time. They were in communication with the Isreali pilots when the attack occured. He was the only one in the radio room to survive when a torpedo exploded directly below the room. His back faced the only door and he was thrown into the corridor - the others weren't so lucky. I can still remember him waking in the middle of the night covered in sweat screaming!
They are only recently getting to the bottom of the cover-up.

Well, that's precisely the point of debunking 9/11.
Everything this rotten crew has done has been predicated on 9/11:
The U.S.A.P.A.T.R.I.O.T. Act
The War On TerrorTM
Afghanistan
Iraq
Detaining suspects indefinitely without trail or legal council
Torture of prisoners
Iran
Spying on our phone calls
Tax Cuts
Debunking 9/11 pulls the rug out from under these thugs and ends these misadventures and we can stop killing people.
The Official StoryTM is rapidly falling apart and steps are being taken to shore it up. United 93 as a feature film, this 'new' Pentagon video, the indifference to stop the destruction of a staircase that survived the collapse and saved several people's lives (makes me wonder what kind of forensic evidence might be obtained from that staircase). Hell, they couldn't even get the death penalty for Moussaoui, whom they wasted their time with when they should have been trying Khalid Sheikh Mohammad, their notorius 9/11 plot 'mastermind' KSM from the incomplete and glaringly innaccurate 9/11 Commission report. Some even doubt KSM's existence.
I think it's high time to stop giving the benefit of the doubt to people who have clearly not earned it.

I'm not giving anyone in the Bush Administration the benefit of the doubt. I'm simply saying with all the stuff that's out there, charges still haven't been brought against this administration and never will be based on this. All this concentration on whether a 757 hit the Pentagon or not won't be proven with a fuzzy video and no one that isn't convinced already will get convinced based on this. Hell, my brother is really into UFOs and HE doesn't believe it!
The momentum is with us in the sentiments of the people, they have lost the trust of the people by and large and that's what needs to be concentrated on. But without a full scale, open investigation of 9/11, proving the conspiracy is impossible and in fact could do more harm than good. It could bring down our government in one giant crash and anarchy would ensue. Is that what you want? Perhaps that's what needs to happen but I don't think so, at least I hope not. I just want some semblance of integrity back in the system, if that's at all possible.

Jack Frost lists the sins that have been predicated on 9/11. The key word is "predicated."
Unless Richard Clarke and Paul O'Neill both lied (neither is a known liar nor had a motive to lie), we know Bush planned to invade Iraq before 9/11, for one or more of the following reasons: WMD, Saddam's plan to assassinate Bush, Sr., a Muslim caliphate, cheap oil, create a model democracy, yada yada yada).
Whatever the real reason was that Bush wanted to invade Iraq, it wasn't terrorism, because there were few if any terrorists in Iraq before we invaded.
So the real story of 9/11 is Bush's credibility. It might be that the official version is correct, but it's hardly wrong to question it, because by failing to question Bush's veracity in the past we've enabled a unilateral invasion of a sovereign country, torture of detainees, rampant illegal spying of American citizens, and a bankrupted national treasury.
If Democrats and the media hadn't been so afraid of calling Bush a liar, we might have avoided all of it. The cost of politeness has never been so high.

Hey, look, guys: I am plenty kooky, but I'm no idiot. The official version is a big thick book full of lies. Even unedickated dolts know physics and trigonometry, all kinds of advanced science and math, just from carrying out their lives. They play pool and video games. They have wood stoves that never melt, incinerators that don't melt the metal stuff that went in. They've seen things topple over, drop, get smacked to kingdom come, blown off the fence post. They know how hard steel is, how big the buidlings were, and cement has been part of their everyday experience their whole lives.
If they THINK about it, once given the FACTS, shown the pictures, they will see that not one of the crime scenes fits the official version. Don't give me this stuff about the official version. We ALL know enough to tell THAT's not true, and it IS the basis upon which this administration has done our country continuing and even more lethal harm. Busting them on this is about getting them out of office and behind bars, as much as concentrating on what they do now.
GIVE ME A WAY TO PREVENT THEM FROM NUKING IRAN!!!!!!!!!

Yep, Big Dan, the very most this does to debunk the missile theory is to add what might be a tail fin from a (small) jet, with all the fuzziness and distortion, and indications that these, too, may have been doctored or tampered with. And, boy, I've tried this every which way, with my brain wide open to any possibility, and none of it scans out to "solid" from these videos. The ONLY theory that 100% does not wash is the 757 theory.
I'm off for two weeks, house sitting with a rickety OLD dial up PC. This is going to test my Zen to the max.

*** There ARE just SOME problems with this VIDEO.
1. Question? Where is the American Airlines airplane? It sure is not in that video.
2. The only conclusive evidence from this video is that there is an small explosion
not consistent with an commercial airline explosion.
3. an American Airlines commercial airplane would leave a huge WIDE & BIG hole in the wall of the pentagon because of its long wings.
Why does the pentagon wall only have a very small hole and a very small explosion as if were hit by a unmanned air vehicle or missile.
4. On the ground eye witnessed said they saw a small "unmanned air vehicle" flying very low on its way to the pentagon.
They also, stated that they never an American Airlines commercial airplane flying low on its way to the pentagon. Infact, Jet engines would make public
unbearable at low altitudes. 100's of thousands of people would have seen and heard a jet plane at low altitude. People who live near airports know what I mean when your house shakes
and your ears rumble when planes pass over your house.
5. Someone has edited this video and erased certain video frames and entered new frames. I can tell this is the case because of the changing frames of light. It's so obvious.
To further substantiate my claim, it is obvious that whoever edited this video was obviously trying to hide what really hit the pentagon.
6. Are we all idiots or just born dumb??? Where if the F*** PLANE in the aftermath??
When planes crash they leave huge piles of wreckage like, luggage, metals. fuselage frames, human bodies,
plastics, A BLACK BOX, and much much more..
7. FACT: Dog sniffing hounds and police searched the entire pentagon and they found not one piece of wreckage or human body remains or luggage or A black box.
8. FACT: THE CIA/FBI did find some small pieces of aluminum foils from an UAV and they boxed it up in a hurry and carried it away. Eye witness video is all over the internet.
10. FACT: FEMA HELICOPTERS WAS SEEN (live on video) firing missiles into the twin towers on 9/11. What the F*** IS GOING ON ??????
My Conclusion,
The US government has just told on themselves that they orchestrated and carried out 9/11.
IMPEACH AND ARREST THESE LYING BASTARDS (The whole bush cabal) !!!!!!!!!!
They did 9/11 to get war support to control middle east oil, thus invading Afghanistam, Iraq, and next they will invade iran!
Tjeiranian president adn russian president have already dropped hints as to whom is repsonsible for 9/11 and hurricane katrina and many other state-sponsored terroist events.
Lieberman: White House hindering Katrina probe
Tuesday, January 24, 2006; Posted: 7:20 p.m. EST (00:20 GMT)
WASHINGTON (CNN) --- The White House is dodging questions about Hurricane Katrina response and has
instructed other agencies to join it in fending off investigators, Sen. Joseph Lieberman said on Tuesday.
The White House denies the allegations.
Lieberman went so far as to suggest that the Department of Homeland Security is trying to kill the investigation.
"My staff believes that DHS has engaged in a conscious strategy of slow-walking our
investigation in the hope that we would run out of time to follow the investigation's
natural progression to where it leads," Lieberman said. "At this point, I cannot disagree."

Greetings everyone:
Parallel Universes and Density Shifting
In order to visualize what are parallel universes, you have to be introduced to new scales and concepts. The Universe is basically 5 dimensions, and is unknown except to a select few of mankind! You are familiar with the first three axis of ordinary space, x, y, and z. The fourth is time. We have to setup a defined three-dimensional box, with defined distances, to explain the fifth dimension. The time progression, forward or reverse of matter and energy within the box is the fourth dimension. The fifth dimension involves vibrational frequency. This frequency is super imposed on matter and energy at the sub atomic level. This would be called its resonant frequency. The fifth dimension has many different levels. In these infinite levels, matter and energy exists in a natural state. What mankind does not know is that matter and energy, and that which is the essence of life, exists at different vibrational frequencies. Each vibrational level is independent from each other, but occupy the same space. Atoms of different frequencies do not mix; they simply slide past each other. To get a clearer picture, lets put part of the Universe in a finite 3 dimensional box, and observe what you would see, and what laws would apply. We would start at the base vibrational frequency for matter and energy. This would be our Universe and laws, represented by the name density level 3. Now a new formula and concept has to be introduced to help you understand. Density Constant = [Time (measured in progression)] * [speed of Light (C)]. Mankind is familiar with the density constant by another name, the cosmological constant. For all levels in the fifth dimension, the density constant is the same, but T and C vary in proportion. Meanwhile to an observer in any confined level in the fifth dimension, light will travel its new rate of speed per standard unit of time. Once outside the levels, variations occur in relation to each other. The progression of time is transparent to you, because you have no anchor points or comparisons. Now, lets increase the vibrational frequency governing some of the mass and energy until it completely transposes up to the next level of existence, density level 4. For an example, let heat equal the vibrational frequency of the atomic structure, and water molecules at 20 degrees F. equal mass and energy. Increase the heat, and some of the water molecules move from a solid to a liquid at a particular point, approximately 32 degrees F. The water molecules are still the same, but in a different form. The higher energy levels consist of lower mass density levels, and new laws of motion. Ice and liquid water can be in the same area, but the molecules do not mix. They slide past each other, creating an environment independent from each other. Also vibrational rates just like temperature can vary and still stay at a confined density level. Now the matter and energy in the box at density level 3 is still there, but you can’t see or interact with matter and energy at density level 4. At density level 4 a new Universe appears, less dense in the number of stars, and in the density of matter itself. What else has changed? Some stars will be in the same positions, but the luminosity may be different. There are stars in new locations, but quite are few missing. In fourth density, the density of the Universe is less in comparison to third, our level. Mankind thought that light is a constant, but in fourth density light has a velocity approximately 17 times faster than in third density. Time is progressively slower in fourth density than in third, but to an entity in third density it seems the same. When the frequency is moved density level 5 the velocity of light is squared from the speed in level 4. Time slows down in proportion. When light leaves a star in the Zeta Reticuli system, which is 38 light years away. It takes approximately 1.6 months for light to arrive at Earth in fifth density. All next levels repeat. What controls this? There is a subatomic particle, which is not known to most of mankind. This subatomic particle controls the resonant frequency of the atomic structure, where matter and energy exists. The more the subatomic particle increases in proportion to the affected mass, the resultant frequency becomes higher. Higher dimensions are created at certain frequency break points. Each level is a Quantum leap for differentials in time and the speed of light. You are now pondering to yourself, what does all this mean? Some potential applications are, traveling faster than the speed of light, making it possible to have surgery without breaking the skin, and the ability to transport matter to different locations instantly. The ability to pass through solid matter in 3rd density when in a transition phase move to or from 4th density, and the ability to manipulate the flow of time are some of the benefits for density shifting.
To perceive an abstract idea of time differentials that is between the densities, let time in the fourth density be represented by a sine wave completing one cycle with a wavelength of equal to the distance A. The amplitude of the sine wave will equal to a number represented by B, and the amplitude also corresponds to the vibrational rate of matter and energy in the fourth density. Both A and B are constants. Now I will compare a fourth density time sine wave form to a third density sine wave and observe the differences. In the third density, the time sine wave now completes 17 cycles in the same space governed by distance A. The amplitude of the waveform is .0588B or 1/17 its original height, and corresponds to a lower vibrational rate of matter and energy in the third density (Earth Plane). If you were to unravel both sine waves into a straight line, one cycle in fourth density and seventeen cycles in third density both would be equal. To the entities that live in each density, one cycle of the sine wave would equal one unit of perceived time. Therefore one day in fourth density is like seventeen days in third.

I see that you have no clue what Noam Chomsky is about, eh Jeff? Is that Mutt and Jeff? (You're probably too young to remember them.) That's what I believe your position stems from. Ignorance and a willingness to believe what Faux News tells you to believe. My oldest brother is like that. He'd been railing against the New York Times and how liberal they are with their bias and I asked him, "when was the last time you read the New York Times?" He's NEVER read the New York Times yet feels qualified to state an opinion about it. That's you Jeff. That's why you shall be ignored in the future. I don't want to ignore you but you have nothing to add to the conversation, unfortunately. You have NO credibility to state opinions about people with the credentials of Chomsky. Perhaps you should go back to school on that wonderful GI bill they gave you for joining the service and learn something before you come back. I suggest a course in critical thinking or philosophy and then world history. It just might give you an idea of how governments lie to their citizens on a fairly regular basis.

I was out of town all week. Thank you for ruining my Friday evening.
I have no idea what really happened on 9/11, but two items have bothered me.
1. Why was GWB in a school room in Florida? It just makes me think that someone knew he would be photographed at that time. And his reaction to Card's whisper is the comic move of a bad actor. It looks like a poorly-planned photo op.
2. How did the officials know immediately the names of the 19 and have perfect photos of each?
And the Atta passport? Was Mark Fuhrman in town?
RLM,
I agree with your JFK comments and I read one of your books on the plane.

They knew the names and had photos, because they all worked for the CIA, and where on what they thought to be a 'training mission', this is evident by the fact that most of the names used were not the real people, as we have seen with the real people in other countries coming forward with the fact that they are still alive and well in there countries of residence.

Way to go Soul Rebel, now thats what is needed. There like hot cakes arent they, aside from my webpages I have started this as well, and other videos from the Alex Jones. But for a simple, yet well researched, short presentation, yeah Loose change never fails, as you watch the unbeliever soon change his mind with REASON alone. Great Idea.(and that reminds me, I need to burn some more for this weekend in Austin Texas, Im going down the drag near campus to hand them out, yes, college campuses are great too Soul Rebel, malls, walmart parking lots, parks, fast food(the people working) anywhere man!!!! It makes my heart yearn to here this from you, that many like yourself are really 'DOING' something about it, instead of just sitting behind the keyboard and shaking there head, yep, yep, yep, then ZZZZzzzzzzZZZZZZ. We need to start organizing though. I know, I know, that is the scariest one of all, because then we will be target out there in the open. But think about it, say we get the current administation out of office, and we clean up the House and Senate, the Illuminati will still be there in the shadows my brother or sister, there power will still be there. The only way to get there control out of our country, is the PEOPLE maintain the power through the states, the WAY IT SHOULD BE IN THE FIRST PLACE, for that is what the Founding Fathers spoke of in the Constitution of this country. The white house should never have had the power they have had in the last 100 years, period, period, period, it is all there in history, period, that is not the way the founding fathers drew up the constitution, PERIOD, and it does not take a scholar to fiqure that out, no, it takes only a well informed smart citizen, period. We all need to realize this, we all just sit back and take OTHER peoples words for it, just because they went to Harvard or MIT, no, we need to all look into all things, for that is our responsibility as citizens here, and of the world.
I dont think that many people today really believe or see what is coming, the fright that is fixing to occur will never be felt from Hollywood, like reality is fixing to present us with. Many people think people like this are crazy, but only there words will be remembered after it happens, history always tells us that the words of truth, and the words that shout the warning, are never heard by the mind, until 'after the fact'.
But needless to say Soul Rebel, know this, that the Universe is taking note, and 1 person like yourself does not go unseen, no, your actions speak more pages than many books, for it is the right thing to do, and you know this.
What part of the country do you live in, I would like to keep in touch with you, and maybe build something from this, we really do need a foundation to speak from in this country, a base, a source, where 'likeminded' ones can really group together, have thinktanks, talk soulutions, the really serious shit you know, not just running around regurgitating things like what is going on online.

Missing Trillions
Rumsfeld Buries Admission of Missing 2+ Trillion Dollars in 9/10/01 Press Conference
On September 10, 2001, Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld held a press conference to disclose that over $2,000,000,000,000 in Pentagon funds could not be accounted for. Rumsfeld stated: "According to some estimates we cannot track $2.3 trillion in transactions."
Such a disclosure normally would have sparked a huge scandal. However, the commencement of the attack on New York City and Washington in the morning would assure that the story remained buried. To the trillions already missing from the coffers, an obedient Congress terrorized by anthrax attacks would add billions more in appropriations to fight the "War on Terror."
The Comptroller of the Pentagon at the time of the attack was Dov Zakheim, who was appointed in May of 2001. Before becoming the Pentagon's money-manager, he was an executive at System Planning Corporation, a defense contractor specializing in electronic warfare technologies including remote-controlled aircraft systems. Zakheim is a member of the Project for a New American Century and participated in the creation of its 2000 position paper Rebuilding America's Defenses which called for "a New Pearl Harbor."
http://911research.wtc7....11/trillions.html...
Dov Zakheim stole $2 TRILLION from you.
His company (Sysplan) made the technology (Flight Termination System) that was utilized on 9/11 to guide planes to their targets.
Flight 77 was shadowed (within just a few feet) on 9/11 enroute to the Pentagon by a Raytheon A-3 Skywarrior powered by a Thiokol motor and equipped with bombs.
When you see the new video of the Pentagon attack - the white smoke is from the Thiokol motor of the A-3. NO 757 hit the Pentagon. Period.
AA flight 77 crashed short of the Pentagon in Virginia and was quietly cleaned up. The A-3 continued the mission and THAT is what you see slamming into the Pentagon.
Nearly EVERYONE in the Pentagon and the White House and the Congress know this to be true.
They all know that 9/11 was an inside job.
All of them.
So does the media.

THIS EXPLAINS IT.
The type of aircraft and engines used to attack the Pentagon.
This shows the Raytheon connection to 9/11.
THE ANSWER:
http://www.rense.com/general70/safe.htm...
It was this collaborative approach that led Jon and I to conclude that no 757 hit the Pentagon so we looked for alternatives. The only plane that made sense was either a 737 or an A3 Skywarrior, both of which can use the same types of jet engines up to a point.
The wing span of most 737 jets fall into the range of between 93.0 ft and 112.6 ft which is still 19 feet to 38 feet of wing that cannot be accounted for in impacting the face of the Pentagon before it mysteriously disappeared. When the absence of surface impacts and the size of a 737 including height of the tail are weighed, it is probable that a smaller plane was used to affect the attack on the Pentagon.
I defy anyone to find an A3 Skywarrior in the hands of any Arab terrorist on 9-11 or any other day. There are only three sources of those jets: 1.) a few (3 to 6) remaining in USAF inventory; or 2.) Davis Monthan AFB where many jets are stored due to lack of humidity; or 3.) the fleet of 12-15 once owned by Hughes and now controlled by Raytheon after that corporation acquired Hughes.
Jon Carlson and I are convinced that the plane used to attack the Pentagon is an old USAF / Navy plane designated as the A3 Skywarrior.
The wingspan of an A3 is 74 feet and in the Navy version the wings were designed to fold up for storage on an aircraft carrier (visible on the drawing above). At a distance, painted like an American Airlines plane, this plane would easily be mistaken for a 737, 757, 767 type of aircraft because the two engines hang under the wing but are of far smaller dimensions than the 9 foot diameter jets on a 757 that not only hang under the wing but also hang lower than the bottom of the fuselage.
That is an important point because there were no marks on the Pentagon lawn of those two jet engines dragging the ground and they would have based on how low the Pentagon was hit. Said another way, forget about the fuselage dragging on the ground. The engines of a 757 would have been plowing the Pentagon lawn but that did not happen.
The wingspan of a 757 is 124 feet 10 inches. The width of the overall opening, even what is visible as possible wing marks slamming into the face of the building is closer to 74 feet than it is 124 feet 10 inches. In short, there is 50 feet missing to substantiate the Official Lie put out by Washington, DC as to what hit the Pentagon. Said another way, there is 25 feet on each side of the centerline of the strike point (that 14-16 foot hole left in the side of the Pentagon) that left no evidence of a wider wing span 757 hitting the building.
They also cannot (or more appropriately will not) explain what happened to the two 9 foot diameter engines that mysteriously disappeared. Some official government sources claim that the fire was so hot it melted the engines to nothing, yet they claim they found DNA of the passengers. That math does not compute, or the science either.
I remember the first conversation I had with Karen Kwiatkowski, a retired Lieutenant Colonel who was in the Pentagon that day. She is the lady that went public about the Office of Special Plans where they were falsifying the intelligence regarding Iraq. She vividly remembers being downstairs and around the corner in about 10 minutes to help get people out and the FBI agents were at the CITGO station confiscating the video tapes of what hit the Pentagon.
Other eyewitnesses have stated that they smelled explosives such as cordite, not burning jet fuel. Those were military witnesses that know that exploded ordnance smells like.
What little video evidence there is does show a white trail of smoke before the Pentagon explosion. Jet fuel burns dark at sea level and jets do not leave white contrails at sea level. What does leave a white trail of smoke at all elevations is the solid fuel of a rocket, Thiokol in most rockets being the type of solid fuel.

According to the US Government's own website which is specifically designed to debunk conspiracy theories:
http://usinfo.state.gov/...un/28-581634.html...
With regard to the World Trade Center attacks, Mr. Meyssan ignores or dismisses the facts that:
"THE GOVERNMENT DECLARES):
"Boeing commercial aircraft can not be remotely controlled"
This assertion is false.
Dov Zakheim was the Pentagon's comptroller and CFO during 9/11. Over $3 trillion is unaccounted for during his tenure. He was (is?) Corporate VP at System Planning Corporation, a major player in the "Homeland Security" industry. One of the products that SysPlan sells is the Command Transmitter System, a remote control system for planes, boats, missiles and other vehicles2 . It's highly customable and configurable to interface with an almost limitless number of vehicle types.
The CTS is a tunable UHF FM transmitter designed for ground use in controlling guided missiles, pilotless aircraft and pilotless boats.
Many takeoff and lending tests were performed using this system on a commercial size Boeing aircraft under the supervision of Raytheon in the days prior to 9/11.
If the pilot is not in direct control and another mechanism is controlling (not just receiving passive signals or sensing) the craft, especially from GPS, it is effectively 'remotely' controlled. The link between ground crews, GPS and aircraft have been established. It's not a cruise control and it's not a radio controlled toy car. We're talking FULL avionics AND navigation from take-off to touch down controlled and guided by a known and documented satellite link. "A fully integrated flight management computer system (FMCS) provides for automatic guidance and control of the 757-200 from immediately after takeoff to final approach and landing. Linking together digital processors controlling navigation, guidance and engine thrust, the flight management system assures that the aircraft flies the most efficient route and flight profile for reduced fuel consumption, flight time and crew workload. The precision of global positioning satellite (GPS) system navigation, automated air traffic control functions, and advanced guidance and communications features are now available as part of the new Future Air Navigation System (FANS) flight management computer." This technology could effectively PREVENT the hijack of aircraft. Any deviation from the course would trigger the system and someone would know about it. We're working to verify if American Airlines does have this technology installed in any of its fleet. Suppose they do have this technology installed... Why not key in a coordinate or code to have a hijacked aircraft automatically land at a predesignated, properly prepared airfield prepped for such eventualities. I can only assume that our "planners" do indeed think in terms of hostile contingencies and have this scenario worked out. This all begs the questions: why wasn't this critical technology used, or was it abused?

Americans (too many) do not know that Raytheon executives were killed on 9-11, or at least wound up permanently missing, which may be a more accurate way of saying it. It is who wound up missing that is most interesting.
This is an excerpt of the email we received and is information that we knew as of the issuance of the flight manifests for all four of the planes allegedly involved in 9-11:
Subject: Raytheon and 9/11
OK, I'm not gonna say anything here, except to let you read the evidence and then you can tell me what you think. (These are people who supposedly died on 9/11.) Mike
Raytheon and 9/11
2001-09-11 Stanley Hall Raytheon Director of Electronic warfare program management. Raytheon did the retrofit of the A-3 that hit the Pentagon, where Bush claimed Flight 77 hit it. Disappeared on American airlines Flight 77, the one that supposedly hit the Pentagon but did not.
2001-09-11 Peter Gay Raytheon VP of Electronic Systems on special assignment at the El Segundo, CA division office where the Global Hawk UAV remote control system is made. Raytheon did the retrofit of the A-3 that hit the Pentagon, where Bush claimed Flight 77 hit it. Disappeared on American airlines Flight 11, the one that supposedly hit the North World Trade Tower I.
2001-09-11 Kenneth Waldie Raytheon Senior Quality Control for Electronic Systems. Raytheon did the retrofit of the A-3 that hit the Pentagon, where Bush claimed Flight 77 hit it. Disappeared on American airlines Flight 11, the one that supposedly hit the North World Trade Tower I.
2001-09-11 David Kovalcin Raytheon Senior Mechanical Engineer for Electronic Systems. Raytheon did the retrofit of the A-3 that hit the Pentagon, where Bush claimed Flight 77 hit it. Disappeared on American airlines Flight 11, the one that supposedly hit the North World Trade Tower I.
2001-09-11 Herbert Homer Raytheon Corporate Executive working with the Department of Defense. Raytheon did the retrofit of the A-3 that hit the Pentagon, where Bush claimed Flight 77 hit it. Disappeared on United airlines Flight 175, the one that supposedly hit the South World Trade Tower II.
These are not only the type of people but they are the people that would be assigned to UAV type projects involving Mode 4 and Mode 5 upgrades. Why would they be in Boston and those planes coming from that direction and from north of Manhattan Island?
That 16 foot tunnel through three rings of the Pentagon is only made by a directional blast weapon. Rumsfeld has even slipped up and mentioned the missile that hit the Pentagon.
Some have seen the Pentagon parking lot camera video and the white trail of smoke. Jets do now leave white trails of smoke at sea level, but Thiokol powered AGMs do, at all attitudes.
A Real 9-11 Commission should have certain Hughes and Raytheon parties summoned for questioning.
Seated behind Mohammad Atta on 9/11 was an Israeli Mossad agent, Daniel Lewin.
WHAT ARE THE ODDS?
STOP.
THINK.
Atta was sitting in seat 8D. In front of him were the two brothers, Wael and Walid Al-Shihri. Behind him was his comrade in his final days, 'Abd Al-'Aziz Al-'Omari. To Al-'Omari's left was the Israeli Mossad agent, Daniel Lewin, and right behind him, the man who would kill him, Sattam Al-Suqami.
In those exact moments, a group of Mossad agents were waiting in Manhattan for the first plane. They had surveillance and filming equipment with them. Meanwhile, F-15 planes were on high alert in Otis air base, 150 miles away, not knowing in which direction to fly.
It is noteworthy that in those moments, the Mossad agents here, according to eye-witnesses, were dancing and cheering in front of the WTC. The Israelis were arrested in New York. Later, they were moved to Washington, and from there to Israel, and the report was quickly suppressed.
5 EMPLOYEES OF RAYTHEON WITH EXPERTISE IN UNMANNED AERIAL VEHICLE SYSTEMS DIED ON THREE SEPARATE FLIGHTS ON 9/11
http://www.rinf.com/colu...onnection-to-9-11...

Raytheon is missing at least one if not two A-3 Skywarriors from its inventory.

C-SPAN Interview April 2, 2006
Lt. Col. Karen Kwiatkowski
U.S. Air Force, 1983-2003
KEY QUOTE:
LAMB: You wrote one of the things that we don't often hear from inside, that Bill Luti referred to the Chief of Central Command, Anthony Zinni, as a traitor.
KWIATKOSKI: Former Chief of Central Command Anthony Zinni, Tommy Frank's predecessor. Yes, he did, and right in front of the refrigerator that sat two feet from my desk.
There was a huge contempt, and Bill Luti is not the only one. But, among the neo-conservatives in and out of the Pentagon and, of course, you can read their writings even at the time, a huge sense of collective derision, collective contempt for people that were like Anthony Zinni, people that were saying, "We need to sit down and think about what we're saying. We need to see how this fits in with America's national security interests. We need to be sure that what we're saying about Iraq's capability, Iraq's connection to terrorism, and anybody else's capability in connection to terrorism, we need to be sure that what we say is checked out."
Why was former CIA Director Porter Goss and Sen. Graham having breakfast with the Pakistani ISI Spychief, the money man who wired Mohammed Atta $100,000 on the morning of 9/11????
Figure that one out and you find out who really did 9/11, and not the patsies the government marches out for public consumption.

The only thing more outrageous the Conspiracy Theory to explain all that has unfolded since 9/11 is Coincidence Theory.
What are the odds that all of this is coincidental given the plan that was laid out years earlier?
Use your heads.
The ONLY thing that can possibly explain the collapse of building 7 is
high explosives. Period. End Of Story.
That the building collapsed within one hour of Silverstein's voice command
to demolish the building is evidence enough.
Like a loose thread on a cheap suit, pull at the obvious lie, and
soon the entire suit starts to unravel, as story after story falls
apart.
IT IS TRUE that Building 7 was brought down with explosives.
IT IS TRUE that it takes a couple weeks to wire a building for a controlled demo.
IT IS TRUE that this implies FOREKNOWLEDGE OF AN EVENT to justify the deed.
If all of this is true, then how could you possibly conclude that the owner of
Building 7 would not have wired his other buildings in a similar way?
Logical, right?
Keep pulling that thread...
There is no Zarkawi
There is no Bin Laden
What are you, conspiracy theorists?
Wake up.
They're gaming you.
19 hijackers flew suicide missions on 9/11.
1/3 of them are still alive.
What does it mean?
Answer the question.
Coincidence?
Explain it.
If this, then this...
If this, then this...
and so on...

If the Mossad Agents were celebrating on 9/11, then what?
and so on...

and so on...
Let's start out with a recap of some highly disturbing events in this country, as reported by a mainstream newspaper on the United States in August of 2005:
http://www.timesherald.c...mp;BRD=1672&P...
Now can you help me out with a plausible explanation for this:
http://www.informationcl...o/article7545.htm...
And this official DEA report:
http://www.whatreallyhap...sraelispying.html...
On 9/11:
The five men --- Sivan and Paul Kurzberg, Oded Ellner, Omer Marmari and Yaron Shmuel --- were arrested eight hours after the attacks by the Bergen County, N.J., police while driving in an Urban Moving Systems van.
The Forward, a respected Jewish newspaper in New York, reported the FBI concluded that two of the men were Israeli intelligence operatives.
Vince Cannistraro, a former chief of operations for counterterrorism with the CIA who is now a consultant for ABCNEWS, said federal authorities' interest in the case was heightened when some of the men's names were found in a search of a national intelligence database.
Israeli Intelligence Connection?
According to Cannistraro, many people in the U.S. intelligence community believed that some of the men arrested were working for Israeli intelligence. Cannistraro said there was speculation as to whether Urban Moving had been "set up or exploited for the purpose of launching an intelligence operation against radical Islamists in the area, particularly in the New Jersey-New York area."
According to ABC's 20/20, when the van belonging to the cheering Israelis was stopped by the police, the driver of the van, Sivan Kurzberg, told the officers:
"We are Israelis. We are not your problem. Your problems are our problems. The Palestinians are your problem."
The FBI seized and developed their photos, one of which shows Sivan Kurzberg flicking a cigarette lighter in front of the smouldering ruins in an apparently celebratory gesture.
The Jerusalem Post later reported that a white van with a bomb was stopped as it approached the George Washington Bridge, but the ethnicity of the suspects was not revealed. Here's what the Jerusalem Post reported on September 12, 2001:
American security services overnight stopped a car bomb on the George Washington Bridge. The van, packed with explosives, was stopped on an approach ramp to the bridge. Authorities suspect the terrorists intended to blow up the main crossing between New Jersey and New York, Army Radio reported.
TCM Breaking News reported that the van was laden down with tonnes of explosives (13).
What's really intriguing is that ABC's 20/20, the New York Post, and the New Jersey Bergen Record all clearly and unambiguously reported that a white van with Israelis was intercepted on a ramp near Route 3, which leads directly to the Lincoln Tunnel.
But the Jerusalem Post, Israeli National News (Arutz Sheva), and Yediot America, all reported, just as clearly and unambiguously, that a white van with Israelis was stopped on a ramp leading to the George Washington Bridge, which is several miles north of the Lincoln Tunnel.
It appears as if there may actually have been two white vans involved, one stopped on each crossing.
It was later confirmed that the five detained Israelis were in fact Mossad agents. They were held in custody for 71 days before being quietly released. Some of the movers had been kept in solitary confinement for 40 days.
Several of the detainees discussed their experience in America on an Israeli talk show after their return home.
Said one of the men, denying that they were laughing or happy on the morning of Sept. 11, "The fact of the matter is we are coming from a country that experiences terror daily. Our purpose was to document the event."
How did they know there would be an event to document on 9/11?
It doesn't take Sherlock Holmes to connect the dots of the dancing Israeli Mossad agents
"Evidence linking these Israelis to 9/11 is classified. I cannot tell you about evidence that has been gathered. It's classified information."
The men all underwent at least two polygraph tests each, the lawyer added. He said one of the Israelis took the test seven times, a very unusual total according to several polygraph experts interviewed by the Forward. All failed their tests.

Attention Plunger:
I mentioned earlier in this thread that I was unable to tell for sure from all the available models of the crash whether the nose of a 757 would align properly with the point of entry on the Pentagon walls. I know in the wheels-up profile of the 757, the bottom plane of the engine is below the bottom of the plane's belly, so I agree in principle that if the craft were on level trajectory it would, at some point, start dragging its engines on the lawn before impact. The video shows a streak (and in stop action camera, that's all it could be called--the speed outpaces any capacity to obtain a true image INHO), but it does appear to show straight and level trajectory. So the part I do not know is the measured height of the groundline to point of impact on the Pentagon wall versus the belly-to-nose height of the 757. If it is high enough to allow for the lower elevation of the engines, then it is barely possible for the 757 to be the culprit. It is more likely that an aircraft would not approach straight-and-level at those speeds so close to the ground over long distances---I suspect an anglular trajectory is actually more reasonable for a large craft. The alleged point of entry I have seen "arrowed in" on "official photos" suggests to me a rather low point of entry. It seems to me an angled entry (down to the wall and in) would have put debris and crater-effects within the walls of the Pentagon itself and added a lot of bouncing fragments all over the place---including those engines which cannot be as frail as the air frame. The Purdue Study I reviewed yesterday doesn't mention many of the parameters they used to program the simulation; they seem to have tested a flat trajectory and studied the shredding effect of impact on a the air frame by reinforced walls and columns. That produces some plausible results to me, but it appears to assume that annoying flat trajectory. So my point again: does the nose cone of a 757 line up with the hole at the point of entry?

Hold screenings at your local library and have some copies to pass out there - hell even if only five or ten people show up, that's five or ten more people who will have access to some weighty evidence on 9-11.

Now move forward to investigate how it is that Raytheon has accounted for this loss in its aircraft inventory, and who painted it to look like an AA civilian aircraft.
"And when it got down to, 'The plane is 10 miles out,'" Mineta continued, "the young man also said to the Vice President, 'Do the orders still stand?' And the Vice President turned and whipped his neck around and said, 'Of course the orders still stand. Have you heard anything to the contrary?'"

(Bluebear2: Had to lock 99 in the other room till she calms down.)

Not certain with respect to the engines, though I read that the Skywarrior was/is capable of carrying multiple engine types.
I'm not just surmising it was an A-3 Skywarrior...it WAS an A-3

99 wants to know if you programmed it, Plunger, or if she missed a crucial bit of evidence. She went to your link and was almost convinced, but thinks the tail fin is wrong... plus too many engines. Can't let her out yet because she will blast the old machine and half the house if I do. Thinking of feeding her powderized chill pills in her dinner, but have to wait for the guards to arrive so we can open the door. By Monday, we should all be safe again, when she can get to a cable connection on a Mac. She's in there threatening Bill Gates with exploding envelopes now too.

Plunger-
I'm a plodder. I think simpler explanations are more useful and convincing. While I find the A3 hypothesis interesting and the pixal-analysis of video interesting too, some simpler forensic analysis could easily do the trick--provided I could locate the simple dimension (grade to point of impact) that I am looking for. This isn't a case of JFK-Grassy Knoll-Magic Bullet-UP & TO THE LEFT-arguments. There is a wealth of information about how large aricraft crash and it's civilian information--- and point of impact and the geometry if impact is very straightforward. I believe a whole lot more people would be convinced by this than by larger theories and compound narratives. Your assembly if ideas may be right--I don't know. But I could be convinced of wrongdoing on the part of our government with far less evidence, the kind of evidence I am trying to find. Like Watergate and Plamegate, the mystery would unravel as the cover-up unravels. It only takes a small thread, but it takes one that everyone can see and pull.

I'm just into Phase I right now. Phase I is that our government's story about 9/11 is false. Phase I, scientists, engineers, & physicists have proven it is false.
Phase II is proving who did it. I'm like Professor Steve Jones of BYU: His thesis proves the lies, he's leaving Phase II up to others: "Who did it?".
I guess electronic voting is the same way. I'm convinced beyond a doubt, via hardcore statistics, that e-vote machines were hacked. That's Phase I.
Phase II, again, is "Who did it?"

Please deliver a message to 99 since I stepped in some nasty mess and I'm still trying to clean it out of my shoe phone. I tried to call her last night from the 757 on my way to D.C. but couldn't get a connection - as soon as all the bars would be up it would seek a new hub and all was lost again.
Someone hacked my WIFI and now all I get is the Rush Limbaugh Show and Barney. Every time I try to view Barney though - Rush keeps coming back looking for someone called Oxy Conan or something like that. I think he's on late night TV, but I can't find him.
I just wanted to let her know that I'm measuring the hole and I'll be damned if I can get the nose cone to fit.
I found a scrap of metal with the letters Thiok on it, but it's was torn off right after the k so I'm not sure if there was more to it. Also part of a circuit bord bearing the word Raythe.
I hope she is doing well and that phone booth you have her in isn't too confining. Feed her well please!

Thugs came to block her exit while I got her "dinner" to her. She's sleeping comfortably and not snoring too widely. I will give her the news about the nose cone. She's already sure of that, too, though.

Karl Rove INVENTED the White House Iraq Group (WHIG) for one purpose. TOTAL MESSAGE CONTROL.
Rove knew that the truth was the enemy of their conspiracy to conquer the Middle East (the PNAC plan). His job, every single day, is to convince you, me and the rest of the world that you didn't just see and hear what you just saw and heard...or if you did, it doesn't mean what your logical mind is attempting to tell you - because "we're in a post-9/11 world now" and black is white.
Karl Rove is the single most destructive force in the US Government...the enabler of the entire evil scheme...THE ARCHITECT.
The scheme includes 9/11 as the essential pretext. "9/11" ... how clever, Karl! Only someone with American sensibilities would select the number we have all memorized to call in the event of life threatening emergency as the date for this evil, KARL ROVE.
The war plan to invade Iraq was written BEFORE 9/11. The Secret Energy Task Force meetings that Cheney had with Ken Lay and the other OIL HOGS during which they all decided how to divide up the oil fields of the Middle East...all of that was BEFORE 9/11.
Cheney outsourced the implementation of the FALSE FLAG OPERATION to Mossad...the FALSE FLAG experts. This explains why over 200 Mossad agents were operating in the United States prior to 9/11. This explains why five of them were arrested, having been observed filming the planes hitting the towers and their subsequent collapse - celebrating our worst nightmare.
The outing of Plame was designed to destroy the best WMD intelligence the US had at its disposal regarding Iraq. Plame knew for a FACT that Iraq had no WMD. It was HER JOB to know. Therefore Rove perceived Plame (the truth) as his WORST ENEMY, and conceived of a plan to silence her. Rove is the individual who insisted that Wilson be sent to Niger.
This was the only way to launch a smear program which appeared to be aimed at Wilson, but was intended solely to shut down the entire Brewster Jennings operation and bury their WMD evidence.
He invented WHIG. Every single one of these individuals is a co-conspirator in a concerted effort to defraud America into committing its troops and its treasure to invade a foreign country to the sole benefit of BIG OIL AND ISRAEL.
The pending invasion of Iran is the next phase of the very same conspiracy. Karen Kwiatkowski let us know that Larry Franklin had set up an IRAN desk in the midst of the Pentagon's IRAQ planners. Larry Franklin has pled guilty for passing Top Secret Iranian Intelligence to AIPAC (Israel). Israeli Generals were free to come and go from the Cheney/Rumsfeld Office Of Middle East Invasion whenever they pleased, without need to sign the guest register.
IT'S ALL THE SAME CONSPIRACY.
9/11 - Afghanistan - Iraq - Iran - Syria. READ THE PNAC. A "New Pearl Harbor" was a REQUIREMENT for its implementation. Rove is running the entire PsyOps Machine to enable it.

Seeking truth is NEVER disloyal. Seeking to uphold the founding documents of our nation, and to be a beacon of freedom and humane-ness for the rest of the world is patriotic. Aligning with powerful criminals because they are powerful, dreaming of herding up those who aren't as weak-willed and weak-minded, or as cowardly and un-American, is the mentality that is ruining the United States. It doesn't matter if you went through boot camp four times and obeyed every order an officer ever gave, if you cannot shake your unthinking acceptance of the husk to get to the heart of the matter at hand, you are not brave, and you do not give a fig for your fellow man.

I voted for Kerry along with millions but it wasn't enough. The way you talk, you would think that Bush seized power by force and planned on staying in power as a dictator.

What hit the Pentagon?
NOT a Boeing 757.
It was a Navy Jet owned by Raytheon (formerly Hughes), painted in the colors of American Airlines and loaded with high explosives (Defense experts on the scene smelled high explosives).
It was launched from Hunter AFB in South Carolina under the direction of the CIA & DEA.
It intercepted and "shadowed" American flight 77 in order to create the appearance of a single radar signature.
Flight 77 crashed in a field in Virginia (and was quietly cleaned up), and the A-3 Skywarrior - fitted with a Thiokol rocket motor (which explains the white smoke at sea level in the recently released "video") - navigated remotely by Sysplan's Flight Termination Systems (FTS) technology completed the mission to the empty section of the Pentagon.
Virtually everyone at the Pentagon, most in CIA, and most Congressman and Senators know for a fact that 9/11 was a FALSE FLAG OPERATION - as does the Main Stream Media.

i appreciate the military and it's services provided to me, but let's face it, in my experience most of the people i know that joined the military, did so because they had very limited opportunities in their adult lives. Either join the military or work at the steel mill, paper mill, auto industry, or jail. Most military i know were below average in school. I'm not saying this applies to all military personnel, but i think it is a fairly accurate assessment of who joins the military. I dont think it's right for you to judge other people for simply having more opportunities presented to them. Point blank if you were presented with: you can either be in the military or a famous actor, sports star, independantly wealthy...i think the majority of the military personnel would've chosen the latter. so dont think you are above other people because you joined the military. the fact is that you joined the military because you were below most people.

I agree plunger presents a valid alternative. i believe it was a jet painte to look like a 757. moving at that speed the size would be impossible to exactly idetify. for instance, the next time you drive on the highway try to tell how long the dashes are that seperate the lane. they serioulsy look 1-2 ft. then stop the car and look and you realize they are as long as your car. so i support a smaller jet rather than a missile.

the reason the pentagon didnt release the seized video is the wording that was used in the suit against them. the wording was video showing the "impact". now you tell me why the gov't is choosing to "split hairs." Does anyone, other than jeff,believe they used those frames at the mussaoui trial? another question is why was the video seized in the 1st place. no one seized all the cameras in New York. the gov't knew damn good and well what WE THE PEOPLE were requesting and they respond with a slap to the face.

99 and I will believe the fighter jet impact just as soon as we get a tiny bit more evidence. It's a good theory, and explains the people who said they saw a low flying plane. It just seems there would need to be a little more physical evidence of it. A low flying fighter could have shot the missile and bugged out before anyone could turn their heads. If it had been an A-3 there would have been two engines that surely would have left evidence of themselves, as did the Thiokol missile, and the original hole in the Pentagon was so like the ones made by lone cruise missiles..........

Jeff tells us we seek not truth, rather to discredit an administration we despise. Here are the flaws I see in that position.
1) It presumes that to discredit the Bush administration is untruthful.
2) It implies that without our alleged efforts to discredit Bush, he would be recognized as something else...presumably a wise statesman.
3) It puts the cart before the horse by taking for granted that our dislike of Bush predated his presidency, or at least predated Iraq, rather than being a response to what he has done since 2001.
4) It converts all condemnation of Bush's presidency into Orwellian group think, as if Brad and Dredd and Big Dan and Joan and Bluebear and
Agent 99 and Bob Mills agree on every question.
5) It licenses guilt by association, in that a reader of Chomsky (a Communist by Jeff's declaration) becomes a disloyal American (because Communists used to be our Cold War enemies), and is thus disqualified from criticizing Bush.
What I see here is an angry ex-GI who looks out into a vast universe of philosophical opponents who fight him tooth and nail and arouse his soldier's instincts. He can't pull a gun on us, so he engages in verbal warfare instead. We're now pacifists, liberals, traitors, scumbags, etc. etc. ad absurdum.
Tailgunner Joe McCarthy couldn't have said it better, Jeff. He had the "advantage" of Senatorial privilege, and a permanent hangover that made his scowl and slurred speech seem natural. But your methods are identical to his. I wish you'd been alive back then, so you'd understand how much so.

I would never spit on an American soldier! Don't put words in my mouth, Jeff.
But YOU want them to die for lies. YOU are unpatriotic. I want them home, safe, not dying for Bush's lies.
Keep mentioning God and patriotism. It's further proof you have no substance behind what you say. You wrap yourself in the flag, because you think it adds something to what you're saying. Doesn't work on us.
What about that sheered metal in the picture above, Jeff??? How did that happen? Guess what, only one way...inside job!!! Perfectly sheered metal, sheered at an angle, right after the buildings collapsed, but before any cleanup crews were in there. That picture above is the proof of an inside job. Of course, you can dodge this topic, like you dodge all the other topics we're talking about.
How did the giant column in the background of the above picture, get sheered at an angle, perfectly straight??? It was cut with thermite. Notice the melted metal at the base of the cut. Jet fuel cannot reach the heat to melt metal,

Bumpy gocart .. I will be under the 3rd manhole cover
to the north - let Max know.
In the meantime compare this This Fireball with that
at the pentagon. This is on the exiting side of
the second tower to be hit. The plane and
the fuel have passed through the building.
The building is 210-220 feet wide from what I
have found. We are looking at it from a corner.
The building is square. Since the hypotenuse of
an equalateral right triangle is roughtly 1.414
times one of the sides, if we divide 210 by 1.414
we get an appearent width of 148.5 feet.
On my screen the building is one inch, the fireball
is 3.5 inches. 3.5×148.5=519.75 feet wide.
The pentagon is 77 feet tall, its fireball is about 3 times as large or 231 feet.
Not a 757 if you ask me.

Jeff
I WAS in the military and I know the menatality of the soldiers. Many ARE "not quite with it" and obey blindly, using patriotism as their justification for much of their attitude towards non-americans. Putting patriotism before thinking clearly is exactly what they want good little soldiers (pawns) to do, otherwise we might not have wars. Think of it, soldiers unwilling to die needlessly. My God, it would be p-p-peace! And I'm hardly a pacifist. I've been in more fights than I care to remember.

i was just trying to speak from my experience. I didnt mean a direct "you" i meant a general "you" to the military. i stand behind my statement, and also apologize if i gave the impressions somehow some people are above others. I just meant as far as economics and opportunities. lets face it the military isnt doing a whole lot of recruiting in the gated communities. And i want to say again, I appreciate the military personnel. This is the greatest country on the planet and the military plays a big role in that.
I think we all should do (if you havnt already) some research on the bush family. They have been connected to some pretty ruthless figures throughtout their last 3 generations. For W to have had a part in 9/11 would just solidify him as a Bush. I feel like we are being run by a mafia style regime. and would anyone put anything past a mafia don. I believe that is what were dealing with here. Look at george h w bush and the killers he is associated with. He came up in a time when the mafia represented power, and thats what they are about..power. Some people say its about oil money or business deals, but i dont believe that. The bushs already figured finance out. what they dont have they can easily obtain through their "friends." They want power, and WE THE PEOPLE are allowing it. When you compare our ranking officials with a mob family regime, there isnt a whole lot of difference. Remeber mafia dons were often well respected in their communities. Passing out gifts, having events for the community, this seems very similar to "tax-cuts" or "rebate checks."Theyre good with public relations but behind the scenes theyre ruthless thugs and killers.

As far as 9/11 is concerned, I'm still in the undecided camp, Dredd. I was impressed by Rev. Griffin's talk at Madison; he convinced me that Bush and Cheney at least knew about 9/11 before it happened.
The forensics seem to point to demolition of the twin towers from below, the deliberate destruction of the third tower, and that something other than a Boeing 757 hit the Pentagon. But if it was all an inside job, why wouldn't the people running the show have simply let the hijacked plane crash into the Pentagon? What was gained by downing that plane somewhere else and substituting a missile or smaller plane?
Something in my gut tells me Cheney knew about 9/11 but Bush didn't. Bush was in Crawford when the warning came in August, and he was in Florida reading "My Pet Goat" on 9/11. Cheney was in charge in Washington. Cheney had just finished the top-secret energy conference, shortly after which Halliburton and other favored companies got their no-bid contracts to rebuild Iraq...long before the invasion had taken place and while neo-cons still needed leverage to use with Bush to order the attack on Baghdad. 9/11 was it. All that would have been required was to convince Bush that Saddam Hussein was somehow connected to Osama bin Laden and 9/11, and/or that Saddam had WMD and Iraq was worth invading anyway.
If Bush found out that Cheney and the neo-cons had arranged for or facilitated 9/11, he couldn't then expose it or allow it to be exposed. Which Cheney would have well understood beforehand. All that would have been required was to keep Bush out of the loop until the planes struck.
This is all theory. But if it's true that the forensics absolutely show an inside job, I think it's the most logical explanation.

No. A whole lot of people just cannot fathom that our policies are so bad for people around the world that they would hate us, and our allies, to the point of suicide bombings. They think such people are insane, dangerous maniacs, against whom we must fight with the loss of every one of our liberties to the death. They have no insight into how their fear, racial mistrust, religious mistrust, xenophobia are being used to manipulate them. Most of us have been hypnotized by old war movies, and right wing memes being broadcast from every conceivable outlet. If they have any minds of their own left, their first response to this kind of input is to turn away, say they don't want to know, can't face knowing, makes it too hard to stand. Some of these will soften and finally look at the evidence. The ones who have completely given up thinking for themselves, if they ever knew how, are personally threatened by anything that seems to diverge from what they've been told. Of these, it is the ones with the most testosterone and the least facility with critical thinking who will go on the attack, get on these threads and freak us out.
Everyone, it only takes looking at the mountains of evidence available to the public. Decide for yourselves, think for yourselves, even if it's the first time you ever tried it.

For Agent 99: For sure, Bush is a traitor if my theory is true and he didn't expose it. But when I said he couldn't do so, I meant from the standpoint of the "...the country can't afford to know the truth" bullshit.
That line of thinking also rationalizes the corporate media's refusal to expose election fraud in 2000 and 2004. What's needed, obviously, is a national leader strong enough and influential enough to say, "On the contrary, the country can't afford NOT to know the truth."
If Eisenhower or Kennedy were alive, they'd be able to fill that role. I doubt there's anyone who is alive who could do so. Walter Cronkite, possibly.

Whereas, his saying that he'd seen the first hit on tv already, BEFORE anyone knew there was footage of the first hit, pretty much tells me he was in the know, and somehow the SS was convinced to stand down.

I agree 99. That is very puzzling to me. The classroom response is very "odd" 1st he says he saw it on live TV and thinks to himself, "Now thats one bad pilot. Must've had a heart attack" ..........excuse me....He is saying the thought that it could be a terrorists attack never even occurred to him. Operation bojinka was planned in '95 with the specific intent to crash a plane into the WTC. Thousands of memos sent about terroists going to attack. Military operations being conducted on simulated hijacked jets crashing into American landmarks including the WTC. Numerous plots to attack the WTC. It is well established that the #1 most desired place to attack is the WTC. Flight 11 is hijacked around 8:15 & Flight 175 info is sent out its hijacked at 8:25. The President sees the 1st crash on live TV (not any TV station any of us can get) and doesnt even think to call anyone in Washington just see "what's going on up there in NY?" But instead he thinks to himself, "now thats one bad pilot......Mustve had a heart attack." But then again: "THE PRESIDENT: No one could have conceivably imagined suicide bombers burrowing into our society and then emerging all in the same day to fly their aircraft - fly U.S. aircraft into buildings full of innocent people - and show no remorse. Never did anybody's thought process about how to protect America did we ever think that the evil-doers would fly not one, but four commercial aircraft into precious U.S. targets - never.

When the government asserts a theory in a case, it is their responsibility to prove it beyond a reasonable doubt to the jury. The defendant is not required to prove or disprove anything at all!
Typically the government presents its case, then the defense points out inconsistencies. The government can never get by with a defective prima facia case. Those get dismissed at omnibus preliminary hearings on motions to dismiss for lack of sufficient evidence.
The 9/11 commission report would not make it past the preliminary hearings ... on chain of custody alone, and Brady exculpatory evidence rules, the case would be thrown out. It is a forensic joke.
I am also open to final conclusions, however, at this point I would dismiss the government case on preliminary motions for lack of competent evidence to support their case.
Guess that is why they have not prosecuted any 9/11 participants to date, even tho they claim to have them in custody in a dark secret place.
Even bin Laden and other alleged 9/11 prisoners purportedly said Moussaoui had nothing to do with it (link here), and the jury would not sentence him to death because there were too many oddities.
I doubt the government could have even gotten a guilty verdict if the nut case had not pled guilty.

"Mark Bright, actually saw the plane hit the building. He had been manning the guard booth at the Mall Entrance to the building. "I saw the plane at the Navy Annex area," he said. "I knew it was going to strike the building because it was very, very low --- at the height of the street lights. It knocked a couple down." The plane would have been seconds from impact --- the annex is only a few hundred yards from the Pentagon. He said he heard the plane "power-up" just before it struck the Pentagon. "As soon as it struck the building I just called in an attack, because I knew it couldn't be accidental," Bright said. He jumped into his police cruiser and headed to the area."
"Afework Hagos, a computer programmer, was on his way to work but stuck in a traffic jam near the Pentagon when the plane flew over. "There was a huge screaming noise and I got out of the car as the plane came over. Everybody was running away in different directions. It was tilting its wings up and down like it was trying to balance. It hit some lampposts on the way in."
"Maj. Leibner drove in and made it as far as the south parking lot, where he got out on foot. "I heard the plane first," he said. "I thought it was a flyover Arlington cemetery."
From his vantage point, Maj. Leibner looked up and saw the plane come in. "I was about 100 yards away," he said. "You could see through the windows of the aircraft. I saw it hit."
The plane came in hard and level and was flown full throttle into the building, dead center mass, Maj. Leibner said. "The plane completely entered the building," he said. "I got a little repercussion, from the sound, the blast. I've heard artillery, and that was louder than the loudest has to offer."

Firefighter Alan Wallace was standing outside his fire station when he looked across the nearby interstate and saw a white airplane with orange and blue trim heading almost straight at him. It slammed into the building just a couple hundred feet from him. "When I felt the fire, I hit the ground," he said.

I'm goona have to agree with jeff here. If our military wasnt in iraq defending our rights, we would probably be being spied on right now, maybe even wiretapped without warrants. And if we had invaded afghanistan, we would could possibly be facing any agent being able to come into our houses just to snoop around for no apparent reason. and if we hadnt captured saddam hussein we might be facing the possibility that our administration can jail the press for unfavorable reports.
Our freedoms are being taken and theres no military response to it. The response has to come from the people. Our military has been a massive failure, and its not from our individual soldiers. It's from the people in the administration. They can't find bin laden, cant achieve any form of success in iraq, cant protect from hijacked airplanes in the air for over an hr to locate their targets and maneuver around to make sure they hit it where they want to...even though our military had specifically trained for that.
My assessment of this adminstration:
Economy: F
Domestic: F (just look at the approval rating)
Defense: F
Foreign Policy: F (were not very popular)
Trying to find people accused of killing 3,000 people on US soil: F

Jeff, if the real problem is radical Islam, as you say, then Bush made a monstrous error by invading Iraq.
Saddam Hussein is an awful guy, but he is decidedly not a radical Muslim. His rule over Iraq was basically secular, with accommodations made to Sunni Muslims. Osama bin Laden is part of radical Islam (or at least claims to be), and he has called Saddam Hussein an "infidel" in public. But Osama is still wandering around somewhere, and Bush told us he doesn't really care where he is and doesn't think about him.
So instead of directing your remarks to us, and telling us "the sooner (we) realize this the better," you'd do everyone a favor by telling the White House. Please let us know what they say in reply.

Wrong. You are the victim of outdating thinking and a very poor effirt on the part of the Bushies to sell this war properly. By invading Iraq, we topped a very evil regime and put the IslamoFascist world on notice by saying: If you wanna fight, here we are. And guess what? The terrorists and other enemies of America showed up and guess what? We're killing them by the thousands. Sure we're taking casualties and as a Vet, I hate to see that, but I grit my teeth and deal with it. We are at war, at a place and time of OUR choosing. Futhermore, if we are to deal with Iran, it helps a great deal to already be in Iraq.
Iran, you remeber them, right? The country that declared war on American in 1979 and took our people hostage, the country that plans to nuke Israel if they can, the country run by a former terrorist....Yes, that Iran.
Iraq is where the fight is. You just don't want to fight.

Jeff/kook-aiders: Clinton was not president on 9/11. Bush is a failure to the American people, and everything he's doing is actually a success to the extreme elites & military complex. And our soldiers lives are being used by them, and the 3,000 people sacrificed for PNAC's "pearl harbor", also.
There is proof that our government had plans in the past to "sacrifice" it's citizens, for an agenda.
By the way, FSTV is off the charts with their programming. They had something on comparing Hitler to Bush. EXACTLY!!! And how the military industrial complex is driving our foreign policies. It's educational TV, the stuff the corporate-controlled MSM doesn't want us to know. The sooner we realize that the objective of the MSM is NOT to inform its citizens of the truth, the sooner this country will become America again, and we will be acting like Americans to other countries.

How many people actually believe the terrorist hate us because of our freedoms. Are they actually saying they hates us because we're not slaves. And if they hated because we have something they dont have, then why arent they attacking the govt's in the countries where they are. No i guess they want world wide slavery. I guess they feel overthrowing their govt's is too hard so they'll concentrate on overthrowing the global superpower. They hate us because our gov't is over there raping their lands and killing them. Why do we have the rights to the oil in their land? We dont, but if anything threatens the supply, we will launch pre-emptive war. So we have a policy that says if you threaten our oil supply coming out of the region we will go to war with you. As if to say, dont mess with our resources. And if we are there to liberate, then why are American companies getting the building contracts. Surely, the Middle Eastern people know how to drill oil. But instead of creating jobs for their people, we give the American companies and contractors the jobs. But wait who are we to decide who gives out the jobs? Why arent the people asked for their opinions on how to run the resources in their own country? Its because we have to make sure we have ultimate contorl of their lands, with no regard for their opinions. Thats why they hate us. Because we try to control and bully them, and they get no say "in their own house."

It was amaged by debris from the towers.
Compare the condition of this building

Why is this one still standing if we believe

I can't wait for the car - I've always wanted a Sunbeam Tiger. Or will it be the Opal?
The question is whether my long legs will fit.
I've heard that CONTROL has sent Larrabee to
Pakistan to search for Osama since he has
been seen there..
I haven't much faith though since he is such a bumbler!
He has even been known to say he doesn't give a damn
if Osama is found or not!
I am worried that KAOS has gotten to Larrabee and he
is in league with Osama.
Any way thanks for your good words - don't let 99 in
on the picture linked above until she has returned
to her office.
Trying to measure it on that semispherical screen

Gimme a fucking break..
Islamofascists want war, death, and destruction.
"why are their resources, ours to make the decisions on?"
Because they have shown that they are irresponsible, dangerous, and cannot manage the world's oil supply properly. Of course, in your pacifist mind, their oil revenues go to making their countries better, educating their children, and paving new roads.

And our posiiotn is you arent responsible, you are dangerous, and you cant handle this properly. Therefore, we are responsible, not dangerous, and we know how to manage the supply.

Conflict is a human characteristic but so is wanting what is best for your children. Killing people only reenforces the hatred. What doesnt breed hatred is compromise, discussion, & trying to understand why people do what they do. That actually opens the door to less violence. If wanting peace and understanding is a disease then I guess I'm infected.

The cost of Iraq war: $283,000,000,000 that amount of $ is equal to:
Instead, we could have paid for 37,510,064 children to attend a year of Head Start.
Instead, we could have insured 169,581,486
children for one year.
Instead, we could have hired 4,907,910
additional public school teachers for one year.
Instead, we could have provided 13,728,972
students four-year scholarships at public universities.
Instead, we could have built 2,549,961

Instead, we could have fully funded global anti-hunger efforts for 11 years.
Instead, we could have fully funded world-wide AIDS programs for 28 years.
Instead, we could have ensured that every child in the world was given basic immunizations for 94 years.
But because the administration cares about the people of Iraq so much they chose to spend this money for them. And even more for the peolple of Iran. So why do they care about the "savage" arabs more than our own people. My guess is that they dont care about people at all. Look at all the benefit that couldve been given the the Americans as well as the world, but the only way we cant get the terrorism to stop is with war.

How did the 9-11 hijackers know about the radar holes?
What we have discovered is that whoever planned and implemented 9-11 must have had detailed knowledge of both the NORAD and FAA radar coverage. They cunningly exploited vulnerabilities in the radar that only the US Military
and the FAA should have been aware of. The 9-11 commission only skimmed the surface of these issues, using them as a means to draw blame away from theFAA and NORAD.
Another important question is why the hijackers took such long illogical routes to get to their targets. Why, for example, was Flight 93 not crashed into the World Trade Centre, which was in sight of the airport?
Analysis of the flight paths reveals the possibility that the planes were switched for substitute "drone" planes, operated by remote control and loaded with explosives to cause maximum damage.

Is that how you learned about "freedom"? One can experience all that in a gang fight or a mafia hit. It has nothing to do with America. Your kind of stinkin thinkin has nothing to do with civics, the constitution, or America. That revolting thinking has existed since evil came into existence.
You are an islameo fascist.
It seems that the republican dictatorship has found a way to exonerate the voting machine companies and the teleco's.
For the first time in US history, private companies are becoming adjuncts to spying and are being protected under national security concepts:
"President George W. Bush has bestowed on his intelligence czar, John Negroponte, broad authority, in the name of national security, to excuse publicly traded companies from their usual accounting and securities-disclosure obligations. Notice of the development came in a brief entry in the Federal Register, dated May 5, 2006, that was opaque to the untrained eye" (link here).
This means they do not have to disclose financial data when the magic wand national security is waived.
And it even reaches the telecom companies that are doing the NSA spy dirty work:
"Telecom giant Verizon is refusing to confirm or deny participation in the illegal National Security Agency (NSA) wiretapping program, as citizens in Maine urge the state’s Public Utilities Commission (PUC) to investigate whether the company handed over its phone records.
In a tight-lipped 44-page response to the PUC last Friday, Verizon argued that the Commission lacks the authority to investigate a complaint that the telephone company was involved in the NSA program. The company further claimed such information is protected by the state-secrets privilege" (link here, bold added).
My guess is that this may be used to protect the big three election machine companies (ES&S, Diebold, and Sequoia) when it becomes obvious that the nation has been destabilized even in its election system.
Thanks for all the protection Jeffie, our hero ...
