The fact is, there were apparently TWO aircraft, one seen by some coming from south of the Citgo station, and one coming from north of the Citgo station. One would have had to pull up and fly away, with the smoke caused by the other aircraft impacting the building obscuring the 1st plane's departure.

One was possibly the real Flight 93, the other was something else.

The timing was impeccible if that is actually what happened.

Anyone covering for the 911 official false flag (and thereby the subsequent rapidly advancing new world we live in) imo should not be taken as a prisoner when escalation truly DOES begin inside Occupied America / ameriKa...

The tail section is hiding, along with the indestructible black boxes from all air craft involved in 911 events. The evil doers are very good at hiding little things like tail sections and black boxes. Yet, indestructible passports belonging to the hijackers could easily slip from the jet fuel explosion and land on the sidewalk for easy finding.

The need for prescise timing may be why the one jet had to pull off that tight spiral in a turn that was at, or possibly just beyond, the theoretical limits of the airframe to withstand the G forces involved in the spiral descent. Certainly that was not a maneuver pulled off by an incompetent pilot who had never flown anything larger than a single engine propeller driven Cessna 172 (with a top speed of 220 knots in a dive).

Are there witnesses who saw both?

My reason for posting the two pictures in post 728 is that the second picture seems to show that the missile or whatever it was traveled along the blue line in the first picture.

That and every little piece of the plane just vaporized, except for a tiny clean yet twisted piece of scrap that the government CT'ers hold up as "proof" that Flight 77 impacted the Pentagon. Strange how that piece of scrap isn't there in the original images though...

Oh yeah, there's some aircraft parts in pictures from inside the buiding, but where is the tail, and where are the wings? With an angled impact such as the trajectory of the aircraft, a least the left wing should have torn off and slid across the front of the building. AND, the tail section should have broken off upon entry to the building.

There does seem to be a pattern. And reputable Professors who know their stuff and disagree with the "Official Conspiracy Theory™" are bought off, as the Professor at U. of NM who looked at the film early on and said it was clearly a controlled demolition, but then he went to D.C. the next week, got a big fat grant, and changed his tune. Those who maintain their integrity are attacked such as Professor Jones of BYU (who I think, financially, had the last laugh as they had to give him a golden handshake when BYU forced him out to protect all that good gubbermint grant money they get). Thomas, living on government grants, Eggar of M.I.T. (the father of the laughable sagging truss theory that has been so thoroughly discredited) will no longer even talk to reporters or independent investigators. He's holed up in his office and playing clam. Not a normal behavior for an attention seeking professor who wants to maintain his "reputation". I am rather fond of Professor Jones because despite the attempts to shut him up he's still standing, and none of the attempts to discredit him or his work have stuck because he is very careful with the facts and they are all on his side.

I wish I could recall where I saw it but there was a photograph of an auxilliary turbine compressor that someone spotted in one of the photos, I believe it was the Pentagon, that was not normal for 757 but would have been consistent with an S-3. I think that an S-3 painted to look like an AA jet seems to fit the evidence better than anything else I've seen floated. It is small enough and fast enough (and as a military jet has a strong enough airframe) to have pulled off the maneuvers attributed to the airliner and yet big enough and a similar, but smaller, profile to keep the illusion alive for the few needed seconds. Also as a smaller jet it would not have been as heavily influenced by wing tip vortices and ground effect. Load one up with explosives and it is going to create quite a bang - sufficient to pull off the illusion.

If the aircraft had hit the lawn first,

A) It would have left a crater. It did not leave a crater, in fact, it didn't even scratch the lawn.
B) It would not have penetrated the Pentagon as it did. It more than likely would have tumbled and broken into pieces before hitting the Pentagon, which it didn't.

Debunking snopes.com
steele here's picture November 11, 2008 - 7:40am — steele here

This may come as a surprise to many of you that use snopes.com to seek the truth.

For the past few years www.snopes.com has positioned itself, or others have labeled it, as the 'tell all final word' on any comment, claim, email or "urban legend".

But for several years people tried to find out who exactly was behind snopes.com. Only recently did Wikipedia get to the bottom of it - kinda makes you wonder what they were hiding.

Well, finally we know. It is run by a husband and wife team - that's right, no big office of investigators or researchers, no team of lawyers. It's just a mom-and-pop operation that began as a hobby.

David and Barbara Mikkelson in the San Fernando Valley of California started the website about 13 years ago. They have no formal background or experience in investigative research. After a few years their website gained popularity, many people believing it to be unbiased and neutral. Over the past couple of years people started asking questions who was behind it, and did they have a selfish motivation?

The reason for the questions - or skepticism - is a result of snopes.com claiming to have the bottom line facts to certain questions or issues when in fact they have been proven wrong. Also, there were criticisms the Mikkelsons were not really investigating and getting to the 'true' bottom of various issues. I can personally vouch for that complaint.

A few months ago, when my State Farm agent Bud Gregg in Mandeville hoisted a political sign referencing Barack Obama and made a big splash across the Internet, 'supposedly' the Mikkelson's claimed to have researched this issue before posting their findings on snopes.com. In their statement the Mikkelsons claimed the corporate office of State Farm pressured Gregg into taking down the sign, when in fact nothing of the sort 'ever' took place.

I personally contacted David Mikkelson (and he replied back to me) thinking he would want to get to the bottom of this, and I gave him Bud Gregg's contact phone numbers - and Bud was going to give him phone numbers to the big exec's at State Farm in Illinois, who would have been willing to speak with him about it. David Mikkelson never called Bud. In fact, I learned from Bud Gregg that no one from snopes.com ever contacted anyone at State Farm. Yet, snopes.com issued a statement as the 'final factual word' on the issue as if they did all their homework and got to the bottom of things - not!

We now know that the Mikkelson's are very pro-Democratic Party and extremely liberal. As we all now know from this presidential election, liberals have a purposeful agenda to discredit anything that appears to be Conservative. There has been much criticism lately over the Internet, with people pointing out the Mikkelson's liberalism revealing itself in their website findings. Now, that should come as no shock.

So, I say this to everyone who goes to www.snopes.com to get what they think to be the bottom line facts: "Proceed with Caution."

Take what snopes says at face value and nothing more. Use it only to lead you to their references where you can link to and read the sources for yourself. Plus, you can always Google a subject and do the research yourself. It is apparent that's all the Mikkelson's do. After all, I can personally vouch from my own experience for their 'not' fully looking into things

I think that an S-3 painted to look like an AA jet seems to fit the evidence better than anything else I've seen floated. It is small enough and fast enough (and as a military jet has a strong enough airframe) to have pulled off the maneuvers attributed to the airliner and yet big enough and a similar, but smaller, profile to keep the illusion alive for the few needed seconds. Also as a smaller jet it would not have been as heavily influenced by wing tip vortices and ground effect. Load one up with explosives and it is going to create quite a bang - sufficient to pull off the illusion.

I wonder if they did that to ensure there would be sufficient penetration into the Pentagon, or that it would have just been TOO impossible to actually manuever a real 757 into the flight path that it ended up taking on its terminal approach.

Apparently, a normal crash of an airliner hitting the ROOF of the building would have caused too much damage perhaps?

Should have included you in the ping list for #757.

The North American Union made it patently obvious to me, but before then I hadn't ever bothered with taking them seriously as a source for anything...these people are clearly deconstructionist Big Government World Communists, doing the work of fellow travelers on the Internets to bring a new world consciousness through lies and omissions. To put it mildly.

Well, with the smaller, but sturdier, airframe of an S-3 (and without divulging anything I shouldn't the S-3 was originally designed as an ASW Jet, my field in the service, and is quite maneuverable - it can take off and land on a carrier) it would have created about the right size hole, had better penetration than just about any other medium sized jet because of the beefier structure, but still small enough and maneuverable enough to make the right approach. I think that also helps clear up the confusion on the approach path and the reports that the 757 flew over the Pentagram. It was basically a "David Copperfield" type trick of the eye. Line up the larger plane so it just clears the Pentagram and then at the same time bring in the S-3 to make the actual impact. The other plane continues out over the ocean where it is ditched OR brought back in, landed, the passengers whacked and disposed of, and then the plane gets a new set of numbers.

Given the amount of mass and kinetic energy a real 757 would have had I think the actual damage would have been much greater. And then there is the problem of the wings. The apparent wing damage to the structure better fits an S-3 than a 757 with a much greater wingspan.

Ted Olson's behavior in all of this (remember the cell phone calls to Barbara ?) has always bothered me...

Yes, he has contradicted himself multiple times. As an aside, but possibly related, is the rumor that he and Barbara were close to a break-up. So, it might not have bothered him all that much to have her play a "final" part in the charade. If you are on the inside it would be an easy enough method to dispose of an inconvenient wife, with no suspicion, by getting her a ticket for the "right" plane.

I will give you and every other Truther on the planet 10,000 years to prove your case. You will never do it, because 9-11 was not an inside job.

You've had nine years -- no proof, no confessions, no convictions -- nothing.

Might as will waste your life proving the moon landing was shot on a stage, or there were three shooters on Kennedy, or that all politicians are really shape- shifting blood-drinking space reptiles.

Almost 50 years after Kennedy was killed...and the nuts won't give it up. Forty years from now, and the Truther nuts still won't have an atom of proof...and still won't give it up.

Conspiracism is a mental illness.

You strike me as the repubican type...but you probably like REALLY young boys, yeah ?

Classical liberal/conservative libertarian, free market with Austrian leanings...but you don't know what any of that means.

Yes, he has contradicted himself multiple times.

You'd think a man of his 'caliber' brain power and organizational skills could get something as searing in one's mind as this is...straight.

Baffling to anyone I would hope...
