I dedicated my book, What’s The Matter With California, to a retired United Airline pilot named Ray Lahr, “a true Californian and patriot”—and with good reason.
Today, the tireless World War II vet and his intrepid attorney, John Clarke, are all that stand in the way of the successful execution of the single most astonishing cover-up in American peacetime history.
What makes this whole event so astonishing is that TWA Flight 800 went down with 230 good souls on board in full view of literally hundreds of eyewitnesses on Long Island’s affluent south shore.
Even more astonishing, although 270 of those eyewitnesses—pilots, fishermen, surfers, military people—gave the FBI detailed accounts, many with illustrations, of a likely missile attack on the aircraft, the New York Times interviewed not a one of them.

Oh boy! We haven’t had a TWA 800 paranoia-fest around here in I don’t know how long. Good thing it looks to be a slow day at work.

Bring back the home video that was shown by various talking heads of the MSM.
Guess the USAF accident from the same cause decades ago - followed up by them placing inert gas in the empty fuel tanks of their tankers was a prelude to the cover up, eh? The accident occurred because airline execs are in the class of extremely stupid and inept. Always have been. Always will be - until next year, when there will be none left (airlines, that is).
My brother saw it. He says something streaked toward the plane, not the other way around.”
it’s amazing how so many have completely discounted the eyewitness accounts of those who saw it with their own eyes, for no motive other than political reasons.
“Oh boy! We haven’t had a TWA 800 paranoia-fest around here in I don’t know how long. Good thing it looks to be a slow day at work.”
Maybe we could add a couple of threads about how the WTC was brought down by planned, controlled explosions and how a missile, not a plane, hit the Pentagon.
The cost to Airline companies will complete the pending demolition of these companies.
Personaly I'd like to indict and convict President Clinton of 230 counts of murder in the worst degree. No executive privilege for his actions.
I know the anti-conspiracy flame throwers will be along in a minute, so I’ll make this quick.
TWA 800 was brought down by something external, not internal.

“They” say the only difference in a sea story and a fairy tale is that a fairy tale begins, Once Upon A Time, whereas, a sea story starts out, Now, This is no sh!t!
Take your pick.
I think that's why they call it "the MANAGED media".
The NY Times et al has received their orders.
If this happened today not 12 years ago I wonder if the truth wouldn't have been harder to conceal whatever the truth may be.
Of course you would. And while you're at it I'm sure you're chomping at the bit to indict President Bush for 3000 counts of murder for 9/11.
Do you or any other FReeper know if the passenger manifest has ever been published?
I have not seen it, but I was watching for it early on.
IMO, there was someone on that flight who could have been targeted for elimination.
And I don't doubt that your brother saw something. Hundreds of people saw something. The question is what, and given all the conflicts in witness testimony we may never know. This is the reason why any police officer will tell you that quite often the most useless evidence to any investigation is eye-witness testimony.
Man-o-Man, where is Micheal Rubio when you need him? /s/
Start looking. TWA Passenger List
Couple of things I always wonder about the TWA 800.
One is that John Kerry lumped TWA 800 in with other terrorists acts against America in a interview that he gave on the night of September 11th.
Another is that Al Gore chaired a commission about airline security right after TWA 800. Why would the government be worried about airline security if TWA 800 was caused by fuel tank explosion?
On the other hand, Kerry and Gore are dolts so maybe I reading too much into their actions and words. I really haven’t read enough about TWA 800 to form an opinion.
Sorry, what respect I had for Cashill died when I went to the link and saw the connection with that boob Phill Kline.
