JFK Is Easy, Now Do TWA Flight 800
American Thinker ^ | September 12th, 2023 | Jack Cashill

Posted on 09/12/2023 12:48:59 PM PDT by ChessExpert

Speaking of Kennedy, no single American has felt the sting of the Times’ historic disdain for so-called conspiracy theorists more than JFK’s legendary press secretary, Pierre Salinger. Unlike Landis, Salinger made the mistake of exposing a conspiracy that was very much in play when he exposed it.

I speak here of the case of TWA Flight 800. The 747 was en route from New York to Paris when it crashed off the coast of Long Island in July 1996, killing all 230 people on board.

Where's the story about those Navy people being fired? Oh, I guess it was 'hushed' up.

It wasn't Navy. It was foreign paid mercenaries. From Iran.

Vast numbers of witnesses reported the same thing you describe. Wouldn’t it be possible to pinpoint the locations of each witness at the time, and the directions they believe they saw the rising light originate from? Triangulation should allow fixing a near exact point of origin. I’d bet such an analysis was done, but deep sixed.

I have been told by someone in a very good position to know the truth, that the people who did it are known, and that they had been "punished" by their government, which happens to be Iran.

But going to war with Iran months before an election was *NOT* something lying sack of sh*t Bill Clinton was willing to do.

He was a coward during Vietnam, and he was a Coward in 1996 too.

Also I have been told that Europe was absolutely against the idea of going to war with Iran. France was especially opposed.

I like that. (Although it would make more sense with the naive/fool reversed - but the idea is similar).

Thanks for the accurate info about the Wyoming. It appears that I am misinformed about which US Navy ship fired the fatal missile.

None of the Navy ships fired the missile. It was rogue Iranian mercenaries in a boat that fired the missile.

And I wish I could tell people how I know this.

also add...”No, the Stinger is an infrared heat seeker...would not impact the center of the fuselage. Would hit out on the wing somewhere near an engine.” (Also no missile fragmentation warhead damage found on the fuselage/wings).

Tanks didn’t start leaking right away but shortly after T/O

You just keep massaging that phony baloney story. Nobody is buying it.

Your evidence?

I cannot present you with any evidence. I cannot even tell you what the evidence I know about is, because it is so specific as to identify where it came from.

I have a source and I cannot endanger this person's career and livelihood.

I have asked my source to talk to Jack Cashill, but my source declined. I suspect my source now wishes that the topic had never been mentioned.

All sorts of people were on that plane, and these people get taken out without us even knowing their name.

I grew up in somerset PA. One town from shanksville. I went to school with the guy who’s farm is next to the farm that 93 crash landed at.

That site is not where the plane went down. It went down over the hill.

That area is big on wind farms. A few engineers of those wind farms died on flight 93. One of the mills had a nice topiary garden and a plaque that lasted those aboard the plane.

There were significant people on that plane from the energy sector.

That little park and the plaque are now removed.

*** the Today show announced that the FBI had arrived at the studios and confiscated the photos.***

Has the world forgotten how to make copies and hide them before publicizing them?

"The crash of TWA Flight 800 was very likely caused by a US Navy training accident."

An OHIO-class SSBN has a complement of about 160 officers and enlisted personnel. If any kind of missile had been fired from that boat, everyone would have known about it. And no one in all these years has come forward.

>>Rogue members of the Republican guard hired by a wealthy Iranian family to get them revenge over the shootdown of Iran Air Flight 655.

But the target was most likely El Al 557 which was scheduled for the same time as TWA 800 took off.

>>James Kallstrom, former FBI chief, was involved in cover up activities.

As time went by, Kallstrom deteriorated visibly. He was likely eaten up by what he was forced to do.

I doubt that 300 sailors on a Cruiser could be kept quiet for this long. If a missile was fired from that ship, every sailor on that ship would know about it.

The plane blew up because of a fuel leak. Period. End of story, end of argument.

Really, I've read the NTSB report and I don't recall ever reading about a fuel leak. The report states the cause as being heat from air conditioning system igniting the cold fuel vapors in the empty central fuel tank. None of the dozen or so commercial whale pilots I know ever believed that silly explanation for a second.

In your expert opinion, where exactly did the fuel leak from, and where exactly did it leak to, that caused the plane to blow up?

And it could not possibly be kept quiet, orders or no orders.

Your commentary can only lead me to believe you are part of the coverup team.

I’ve always had Iran (or proto al Quaida using a leftover Stinger) on my list of TWA800 suspects, given that the USS Vincennes had recently shot down an Iranian civilian airliner “by mistake”. I doubt they believed that Bill was “soooo sorry”, but they did want him to feel their pain.

It is certainly easy to imagine that someone of Clinton’s character would cover it up rather than be forced by public opinion to explain how he let it happen AND take major action. Sort of like pretending not to know that China created Covid in Wuhan then unleashed it on the world so we didn’t have to do anything about it.
