As far as I am concerned, the Coast Guard and Dept. of Homeland Security have no more credibility on this issue than Clinton's FBI did on the issue of TWA 800 when he was president..
I'm a little confused, specifically on the part above.. If memory serves me correctly, TWA 800 blew up over the Atlantic due to a problem of some sort with it's fuel tank.. This was a conclusion of the TSA & FBI? Is there more to this story? Was there some cover-up by Clintoon that has all the hundreds of FBI and TSA agents 'hushed'?

TWA 800 blew up over the Atlantic, however (as a former 747 pilot) I assure you that it was not due to a mechanical problem with the fuel tank. The government produced simulation aired on all the major networks at the time showing a "zoom climb" following the departure of the nose of the aircraft was aerodynamically absurd. Flight 800 was downed by an external object, though I cannot say whether this was a terrorist missle, an off target military drone. Jim Saunders believes the former; several of our former employees - retired naval officers, believe it was the latter.
