"why do you refer to their questions as "conspiracy nonsense"?"

I don't refer to their questions as "conspiracy nonsense". I refer to the unsupported claims of conspiracy artists as "conspiracy nonsense".

"So why are you so sure of the NTSB report, which is only one theory for the cause of this accident?"

The only part of the NTSB report that is theory, is the specific cause of the spark that triggered the explosion that Boeing agrees initiated in the CWT and started the whole event.

"But an analysis of all the evidence leads me to conclude that a missile shootdown is the more likely cause of this crash."

With all due respect, that makes no sense. While the NTSB can't find with certainty the specific cause of the spark in the CWT, NOBODY can find a single bit of evidence that a missile or bomb exploded in or anywhere near the aircraft. The NTSB, Boeing, ALPA and TWA are all in full agreement on that point. So in effect, you dismiss all their factually driven analysis and except a theory that has zero tangible evidence to support it.

Rokke,"While the NTSB can't find with certainty the specific cause of the spark in the CWT,"

And you would not expect them to find the "cause", when the damning criminal evidence has been removed from this investigation.

Get over it, you really know what happened to it, look at your hostile behavior anytime I mention the foreign missile pellets....it is DRIVING YOU CRAZY!

Ray Lahr is going to blow this silly charade out of the water, and then I guess we won't see anymore of you?

I give you credit for the time you have spent on these conspiracy nuts. You must have the patience of Job. I will waste about two minutes on this topic (which is two minutes more than I should)--and not one second more after that.

For these conspiracy nuts to have any conceivable chance of being correct, you would have to have the following people/groups involved in the conspiracy/coverup:

1. NTSB (several members),
2. FBI (several members up to the highest levels),
3. CIA (several members),
4. FAA (lots of people),
5. U.S. Navy (several members),
6. U.S. Coast Guard (several members),
7. Pentagon (lots of people here),
8. Boeing Aircraft Company--since they were liable (literally hundreds to include safety experts, enginneers, mechanics, electricians, and all levels of management to the top),
9. Virtually all airline managements that fly Boeing equipment (hundreds here involved in the conspiracy too--as all Boeing commercial aircraft have complied with Airworthiness Directives to minimize the possibility of another fuel tank explosion by rewiring, shrouding and changing every day checklist procedures). The airlines have spent millions in the conspiracy without publicly complaining--by making the changes mentioned just to keep the 'truth' from becoming public (rolling eyes),
10. Pilots' unions must be in on the conspiracy too--because they have accepted the conclusions of the NTSB and operate the new checklist procedures as a result---with no demand for a reopening of the investigation,
11. All politicians (democrat AND REPUBLICAN) must also be in on the conspiracy because there is no movement whatsoever to reopen the investigation (probably because they know they would be laughed out of town).

The best part of the conspiracy, though, is how BOTH democrats AND REPUBLICANS--liberals AND conservatives--have ALL agreed to keep it quiet! "Psssst---pass it on, we're going to cover this one up! Yep, great idea--psssst--pass it on"!

You can't get TWO people to keep a secret these days--much less the hundreds listed above. There are probably more involved in the conspiracy than I listed above--but I'm approaching my self-imposed two minute time limit. Oh well,,,,at least this gives the conspiracy nuts something to pass their time with.
