Makes you kind of wonder about TWA 800 where the government keeps telling us that it couldn't have been terrorism . . . what about the Long Island crash a while ago . . . same thing . . . . no terrorism here, move along . . . now LAX . . . no terrorism here, move along . . .
AND.... it was his 42nd birthday, and he had sent his wife and kids back to Egypt after the Sept. 11th attacks. Likely this sleeper was awoken, and thus the action. If not for the quick thinking Israeli security, he may have offed many more (two guns, knife, extra ammo on him...)
I don't wonder. Over a hundred people saw the missile, from different angles and vantages, all basically agreeing. The Chief Investigator announced it was not terrorism before the investigation began, issued orders that investigators were not allowed to talk even to each other, refused to interview anyone who claimed to have seen a missile, and then at the end ignored the findings of his own investigators to announce that, sure enough, it wasn't terrorism.
The Long Island crash was still in flames, the fire fighters couldn't even get in to fight the fire, when the feds announced that it wasn't terrorism. How could they know that? Of course they couldn't know that, but they determined within minutes of the plane going down that they weren't going to give the enemy a victory. I understand that, though I don't agree. I would allow Clinton that excuse if there were evidence that, in the shadows, our spooks were dealing with the perpetrators of TWA 800, but as you know the evidence is to the contrary.
