Sept 11 - Do we really know what happened at the Pentagon?

[Ken]

The truth



Or is it?

The filter at work won't let me check out eBaum's. Is that the "Pentagon was attacked by a missile" video?

[Ken]

Yes it is

That is NOT the truth!!! I don't know why or how people dream this crap up. There are so many misguided people in this world that think the gov't is out to get them, that they do anything to make other's think that way. Plus some people are just gullible. Numerous people physically saw the plane (757) smash into the pentagon. Do you really think that evidence of a plane would be left after something that weights close to 75-100 tons going almost 600mph-700mph. The momentum is at a phenomenal rate, and surely the wings and possibly other area's of the aircraft disincarnated upon impact. I find this movie to be ridiculous and for the weak minded.

The biggest problem with that theory, is what happens when a missile hits. They show the little hole at the end of one of the rings, and say that a missile could have caused it. Crap! A missile would have penetrated through the first, possibly the second, ring and exploded! You'd have a pattern of damage that looked like a circle around the point of detonation! As much as the conspiracy theorists hate to admit it, the events of 9/11 were carried out by arabian radical islamic-extremists in jet liners. Not by our government, some corporate power, aliens, or the military.

Biggest problem with the missle theory is the pictures not included in that movie.

like this one



looks like airplane parts in front of the pentagon to me

Yes. Also a biggest problem.

OK a few facts about this.

1. When this originally happened and before the outer ring or wall collapsed there was a tail and a wing section visible
2. Typically in a crash covering a wide open area plane parts are scattered far from the main source of fire. When it impacted the building the concentration of the impact would have caused a significently smaller hole than you would think as well as go thru more rings than imaginable.
3. If it was a small plane or missile there would not have been the intense fire. The amount of fuel a large plane has would contribute to the enormous fire that took a day to bring under some control.
4. The size of a plane streaking across the field of vision at a distance can be tough to determine. If you remember the original report of the first tower hit eyewittnesses said a small jet had originally hit the tower.
5. Did you ever see any large size debris from the towers???
6. When the A/C slammed into the Steel reinforced Concrete all the fuel went into the building generating High Furnace Temps, all the aluminum and steal parts would have melted leaving only the Titanium and Inconel remaining
7. Why would they lie about the A/C that hit the building.
8. the fact is do we really know who was flying the plane. Once a A/C is in the air a child can keep it flying, only taking off and landing is a problem and the hijackers waited for the planes to take off before taking control of the A/C. then all they had to do is aim at the target because they were not worried about landing either!!!!!

Actually the Pentagon was designed to withstand nuclear blast. That is why the ring design. The WTC was a rigid outer shell that held up the inner building this design was done to maximize space. The typical steel beam construction of most High rises would have possibly held the building together but in the WTC once the outer walls went the building caved in on itsself. The damage to the Pentagon is consistant with a large A/C hitting it.

You set them straight Corey!! GET'EM....

Regardless, I got a good laugh from the little movie!!! Maybe someday the maker will get a real job and stop wasting so much time in Macromedia Flash making useless hoopla... The dude really needs a role model...
