Quote of the Day by skeeter

[Broadside Joe]

So 270 eyewitnesses should not believe their lying eyes? Granted, eyewitnesses are not always reliable but when you have 270 that say they saw the same thing there may be an awful lot to it.

[Joe Boucher]

I know I don't trust the United States govt. in regards to this nor in most every other matter.
Trust the C.I.A. and or F.B.I.? Not now or ever. If these rediculous agencies say the sky is blue, you'd be better off checking.

[demkicker]

I'm interested in everyone's theory as to why there was such a massive coverup and who ordered it?

I think this was a terrorist attack covered up by high level gubment officials. Clinton (its the economy, stupid) couldn't have the sheeple too afraid to fly. The prevailing attitude was nothing to see here, keep flying.

[Vinnie]

Maybe Clinton is about to get that 'legacy' he so desperately wants. Not exactly the one he has in mind though.

Bet the Hillary camp is working on the 'spin' for this one just in case.

[Ispy4u]

Of all the times I've read about this I just realized something.

How far was TWA 800 from LI when it's trouble began according to the CIA video. The reason I ask is because they tell that the craft climbed less than 4000 ft after the nose fell off.

If the plane was 10 miles from shore then to that closest person would a 4000 foot climb even come close to looking like a missile? I mean could that be mistaken. Seems to me that the climb would appear only 1/10th of that size due to the distance, and then only if it climbed directly vertical.

I have never believed the center tank and zoom climb, but this is the first time I have ever considered perspective of distance and height.

Please feel free to be hard on my theory here, I don't have a dog in the hunt so tear this appart, if it doesn't hold water, so be it.

Makes you scratch you head and think...why would our government lie to us like that? What was to gain from this CIA video? Who ordered the bogus CIA story? Why was TWA 800 brought down? Who or what cargo was on board? Too many questions....The fact that Clinton was in office during this fiasco leads me to think something stinks to high heaven. But what? Was it a terror attck? Osama did not take credit. He would have for sure.

I still always have to marvel at how on 9/10/2001 all the nutters thought the Navy accidentally shot it down during an exercise and on 9/12/2001 all the nutters thought that it was shot down by terrorists, and the Navy thing hasn't been mentioned since.

[brityank]

Bump and Ping.

[Blueflag]

I don't know what really happened.

As an ex-pilot I never believed the pitch-up story (although what I flew was single-engine, prop, Vne 125KIAS)

AS a volunteer firefighter, I KNOW how preposterous the idea of an explosion in an enclosed JET-A fuel tank is.

AS a citizen of the US, I don't trust the Clinton era people about anything.

For whatever reason, they don't want the sheeple to know what really happened here. All the intrigue usually comes down to money and power.

Some day we'll know.

[WhiteGuy]

Our government lies to us.

It's been going on for decades.

I doubt that it will change.

[2nd amendment mama]

Bump to read later.....

[samtheman]

One reason to cover this up is that it wasn't a terrorist strike but some kind of military exercise gone horribly wrong.

[patriot_wes]

You know this story and your quote of the day (I read it twice and I like it) could lead people to think negative thoughts about our government and possibly come to the conclussion that our US government is lying about something and we can't have people knowing thinking that. I think Jim might just have to pull this post.

Copy and paste guys before it's gone!

[DCPatriot]

Two words.

SHOE BOMBER.

[MoodyBlu]

Has the possibility of a meteorite been considered and if so any conclusions?

The month before TWA800 came down, I was vacationing in Ocean City, MD and early one evening witnessed several meteorites over the Atlantic Ocean that appeared to be travelling from the south to north.

I can believe a meteorite or a terrorist missile brought the plane down but have a real tough time with those who direct blame at the Navy. No way you could shut up a boat load of sailors if a Navy ship had anything to do with the tragedy.

[JohnEBoy]

Often the simplist answer is correct. This terrorist attack on TWA 800 took place in the summer of '96, exactly when the Clinton re-election campaign was ramping up. Clinton, the great apologist and appeaser did not want to deal with domestic terrorism during the campaign since this would have been a great campaign issue for Bob Dole. So, voila, a theory that a plane climbed 4000 feet after exploding from a center fuel tank. A theory totally in opposition to 270 eyewitnesses.

This is part of the "Clinton Legacy".

[Texas Lizard]

Let's see........hum.........Flight 800, and OK city bombing
...both on Clintoon's watch........whats that I smell? Could it be a coverup ???

"The following program was produced by the Central Intelligence Agency," said the narrator at the outset...

I think this one statement should be enough to taint the credibility of the video.
