Poking holes in the official story of 9/11 (mutiple alerts)

"For example, Meyssan, despite eyewitness accounts, has suggested that it was in fact a missile that hit the Pentagon."

Yes I have heard this theory too. The passengers on the plane actually were skirted out to a Bermuda Island, and are being held captive indefinitely on the Love Boat.

Further proof that liberalism is a mental disorder...

LOL

This is a slap in the face to anyone who lost a loved one because of 9-11..

Shame on anyone who is out to make a buck from this.

There is a special place in hell for them.

[plushaye]

These conspiracy theorists always miss the simplest explanation that no-one was truly prepared for 9/11 because the terrorists had never tried anything as audaciously evil like that before in the history of the world. Good people just don't naturally think that way. Now we all have to prepare for the worse case scenario for every terrorist threat, but that just wasn't the case on September 10 2001.

Only one alert needed - the MORON CONVENTION alert.

I was going to post something witty and condescending - but I've drawn a blank - never mind....

Canadians don't get enough sunlight. They're just plaid dumb.

I read some loony website about this kind of junk about how planes were hidden and the passengers taken to some building and held captive or some such garbage. There are people who believe this junk! I don't suppose they say this about the Towers since there are videos galore of the planes hitting them, but of course, they could have some loony tunes theory about that too!

[Contra]

Just wait until something happens to them, will they ask the same questions?

[Dark Knight]

>>Inquiry's unasked questions include: Why were fighter jets not scrambled in time to stop the planes from smashing into the buildings? Why did the U.S. chain of command — including the commander-in-chief Bush — not act when the hijackings were in progress? Why were so many warnings missed? And why did it take the Kean Commission — Washington's official 9/11 inquiry — so long to get going, and only after the bereaved families noisily lobbied for more than a year? <<

They are dupes, and useful idiots. Jaime Gorelick's law firm is being paid big bucks, by a Saudi Prince to defend against 600 911 victim's families.

What were Bush's immediate options that day? Shoot down a passenger plane with US Warplanes? Impeachment that day? The planes in NYC had no where good to go if they were shot down. It was a bizarre and unique situation.

This analysis and criticism is strictly armchair quarterbacking from the politically handicapped.

There's a lunatic fringe in every country. There are some who swear Elvis is still alive. Others who say the moon landing was faked (as in the movie "Capricorn One"), or they were alien abductees. For every conspiracy theory, they'll be a convention held somewhere for it.

Inquiry's unasked questions include: Why were fighter jets not scrambled in time to stop the planes from smashing into the buildings?
--- Perhaps because there were no armed jets that could stop these planes?
Why did the U.S. chain of command — including the commander-in-chief Bush — not act when the hijackings were in progress?
---What could they do?
Why were so many warnings missed?
---You mean the nonspecific August memo? I blew the idea that it could have prevented 9/11 in a bloggers thread.
And why did it take the Kean Commission — Washington's official 9/11 inquiry — so long to get going, and only after the bereaved families noisily lobbied for more than a year?
---What BS. It's called focusing on the WOT.

It is amazing that this was even published.

Clearly the White House failed at securing the nations airlines when people carried box-cutters on to four planes out of thousands... Box-cutters that were legal before 911...

Clearly the White House failed by not shooting down the four civilian airplanes carrying hundreds of people as soon as they found out they were hijacked... Even though no plane had ever been shot down before due to it being hijacked... And no civilian passenger plane had ever been used as a missile before...

The fourth plane was being followed by a fighter plane before it crashed in Pennsylvania. It didn't take long after the first three hijacked planes hit their targets to know what the fourth was up to. In truth we responded pretty quick.

And last, that the White House failed because it didn't know what 19 people were up to out of around 300 million people in the country. As if any form of law enforcement could have exposed it...

And for those who say the White House knew in advance... Your too sick to even respond to.

[StriperSniper]

why so much went so wrong all at once

This was as far as I bothered.

That was just why, it was all at once. If there was to have been a second wave as has been speculated, that was stopped. While out defenses were set to respond in minutes to ICBMs, there were few provisions for domestic flights being used as cruise missiles.

[swilhelm73]

All of which works great for Bush and company. That's because, by lumping 9/11 skeptics with whackos who pick up alien voices with their tooth fillings, the mainstream media can marginalize any and all questioners as "conspiracy theorists."

Indeed! Eveyone knows 9/11 skeptics pick up alien communications through their toasters, not their fillings.

LOL. So you have a group of people pushing a theory about some arcane conspiracy and they are mad at being called conspiracy theorists? Leave it to liberal idiots to be this stupid.

The fourth plane was being followed by a fighter plane before it crashed in Pennsylvania

I don't think "being followed" is an accurate or appropriate description. There was a flight of fighters heading to intercept it, but they had a long way to go and didn't get there before the Militia of Flight 93 took matters into it's own hands and saved the Capital or the White House.

[abigkahuna]

I am of the opinion that our military shot down that fourth fatal flight in PA. There are some witnesses and the debris field indicated a shoot down.

This in no way takes away from the brave actions of those folks aboard Flt. 93. And for reasons of national security the shooting of the airliner was kept secret.

America needed heroes from that dark day and Flt. 93 and its passengers fit the bill. It was (and is) war. I don't regard this part of the story cover-up as part of any conspiracy either. The options were few and far between and the consequences enormous if the shootdown didn't take place.

May G-d bless those souls that died in violence that September day, and may all of America remember it as that beautiful autumn day when war came to our shores.

[weegee]

But the French made TWO books about that missle theory BESTSELLERS. The missile was reportedly PAINTED to look like a plane, no less.

France hates America. France hates Bush. Simple as that. May we realize that it is still not a "good thing" to let the Islamofascists conquor their country. We'll probably be pulling their ass out of the fire again.
