TWA Flight 800 – an FBI cover-up?

The FBI, under political pressure from the Clinton administration, purposely covered up evidence of a terrorist missile strike against TWA Flight 800 in 1996, charges a book to be released in early March.

"First Strike," by investigative reporters Jack Cashill and James Sanders, shows the overwhelming evidence ignored, obscured, buried and destroyed by FBI agents placed in charge of investigating the air disaster July 17, 1996, off the coast of Long Island. Some 230 people died in the explosion – making the incident the biggest, deadliest terrorist strike on American soil prior to Sept. 11, the authors say.


Cashill and Sanders have uncovered startling new evidence about the crash, including a critical Islamic terrorist connection covered up by federal investigators to give America a false sense of peace leading to the presidential elections three months later.

Cashill and Sanders chronicle the way news reports in the immediate aftermath of the explosion all focused on the likelihood of a bomb or missile destroying the plane. Dozens of witnesses reported seeing a bright object streak toward the plane just before the explosion. The trail of an apparent missile streak was caught on radar – and apparently on video.

All of this evidence would be deliberately spiked by investigators reporting to political operatives in the White House.

Cashill and Sanders discredit the official version of events told by the National Transportation Safety Board and FBI – documenting myriad cases of malfeasance, lies and cover-ups inside the investigation and, perhaps worse for the nation, outside, as the fraudulent information was filtered to reporters and a credulous American people.

"You want a smoking gun?" asks Joseph Farah, editor of WorldNetDaily and cofounder of WND Books, the publisher of "First Strike." "This is the smoking gun. This is the book that will help you understand why we were all shocked on Sept. 11, 2001, when, in fact, our government had many warnings – when there were previous, major, unacknowledged terrorist attacks like TWA Flight 800."

How would you feel about excerpting for us some info to be condensed for FREEPCARDS?

This criminal deed needs to have serious consequences for SHRILLARY HILLARY in terms of her obvious fierce run for the White House.

i SUSPECT

SHE WAS DIRECTING THE COVERUP FROM THE GITGO.

I think she's faster on her feet and more fierce about such things than even DILLDO.

I bet she knew within seconds or minutes of Dilldo's knowing. She might have known first. Hard to say from the serf distance!

Do you think linking a story to a page that believes in alien UFOs strengthens or hurts legitimate questions about TWA 800?

I need a little help with my memory here.

A few years ago a couple (I think) was prosecuted in CA for their investigative work on TWA 800. Was it Sanders? The name sounds familiar to me.

2) Incomplete and inadequate accounting for the presence of explosive traces found in diverse parts of the aircraft.

FACT: Investigators detected traces of explosives (PETN and RDX) on various wreckage items.[12] Officials attributed these traces to a canine bomb detection exercise allegedly conducted in the jetliner in St. Louis five weeks before the crash.[13] According to investigators, explosive particles were inadvertently deposited on the aircraft during this exercise.

FACT: On the day of the of the alleged bomb detection exercise, the aircraft that would become Flight 800 left its St. Louis gate, fully catered, with 435 passengers and bound for Honolulu only fifteen minutes after the exercise was completed.[13] This meant that passengers were aboard or boarding the jetliner when the alleged exercise was taking place.

FACT: Another TWA 747 aircraft, adjacent to the Flight 800 aircraft at the time of the bomb detection exercise, left its gate over one hour later.[14]

ASSESSMENT: The bomb detection exercise likely took place aboard an adjacent TWA 747 aircraft that left its gate more than one hour after the exercise ended, not inside the Flight 800 aircraft, which was not available for such an exercise at the time. The explosive traces detected onboard Flight 800 can not be attributed to a spill during the bomb detection exercise in St. Louis.

ASSESSMENT: The NTSB should immediately gain access to all evidence and analyses remaining in the FBI's possession so that NTSB investigators can complete their investigation by thoroughly and openly analyzing all of the Flight 800 wreckage items.

Klintoon ordered the coverup to further his political ambitions. Hitlery will do ANYTHING to focus attention away from any examination of these events to further her political ambitions.

Don't turn your back on her...look what happened to Rev Al.
