The first manpad launch was too far out and the airliner was too high.

The second manpad launch was 5 or so days later and made no such err.

Sadly, our National Defenses did not correctly detect and defend the U.S. homeland from the second attack.

The first attack is one thing to excuse...it’s the second launch that downed TWA 800 that should have had General Wesley Clarke and his peers fired.

I have though from the beginning that FL800 was shot down by a hand launched missile of some type. Wing tanks do not explode on their own, except on B-24’s.

Moonbat logic.
The first launch (irrelevant) is on tape; the second (if it ever happened) is not.

Fevered fantasies or paranoia are not documentation.
