TWA Flight 800 investigators break silence in new documentary, claim original conclusion about cause
Fox ^ | 6/18/13

Posted on 06/18/2013 5:51:17 PM PDT by workerbee

A group of whistleblowers, including a number of aviation experts, have come forward in a new documentary to claim that the official explanation for the crash of TWA Flight 800 was wrong and a gas tank explosion did not bring down the flight off the coast of Long Island 17 years ago.

However, the six whistleblowers, all part of the original investigation team, stopped short of saying the plane was shot down.

Flight 800, a Boeing 747, had just taken off from JFK airport with 230 people aboard on July 17, 1996 enroute to Paris when it exploded and crashed off the coast of nearby East Moriches, Long Island, killing everyone on the plane.

“..This team of investigators who actually handled the wreckage and victims’ bodies, prove that the officially proposed fuel-air explosion did not cause the crash,” reads a statement by the producers of the film, which will debut on cable network EPIX next month. “They also provide radar and forensic evidence proving that one or more ordinance explosions outside the aircraft caused the crash.” However, the statement said they did not speculate about the source or sources of any ordinance explosions.

We knew that from the beginning. That RIDICULOUS “zoom-climb” video was the biggest farce I have ever seen.

I still believe that it was terrorists who shot it down with man-pads. With the Olympics starting up in mere weeks and the 1996 Election coming up in 4 months, there was no way they could admit that terrorists shot it down.

So, they lied.

Basically if you don’t admit it was terrorism then it isn’t. Same with the plane that went down in NY shortly after 9/11.

How many planes fall apart on final approach?

The Clintons had a great deal of practice leading up to the election of 2012 and Benghazi.

“Hey, come on - airliners explode in mid-air all the time.”

Does anyone with two brain cells to rub together buy into this despicable phony-baloney government horse sh*t?

Now ... the $ 10 million dollar question ... Qui Bono ? ... (who benefits ?) from this news story ?

V.P. Joe Biden ...

desperately trying to derail the magical "Clinton Image" before the Clintons successfully counter-strike to remove Joe Biden from the Vice Presidency ... to REMOVE him from the 2016 race.

” the notion that too many people would be involved to keep it secret.”

Yet, illegal spying on Americans has been kept secret for decades.

That thing was shot out of the sky.

I recall that evening as if it were yesterday. I remember all the eyewitnesses seeing what appeared to them to be a missile and the plane exploding.

I also recall there wasn’t a cloud in the sky.

Many people speculated that someone may have even hit the plane with leftover fireworks. Though not possible to down the plane much less reach it, that sort of thinking demonstrates that many people believe they saw a missile or streak of flame head for the plane before it exploded.

They were certain that they saw two things: A possible rocket and then the explosion.

The Whitehouse will soon look like the violent classic movie The Departed pretty soon ...


Maybe news of this forthcoming "leak" (the CIA's initials are all over it) ...

is why that jackass FBI Director seemed so dazed and confused the other day during his congressional testimony about "Dear Leaders'" use of the IRS to violate the USC Title 42 Civil Rights of MILLIONS of Conservatives between 2010 and 2012 ...


Can you say the phrase "voter suppression under color of law" ...

Mr. FBI Director ?????

Now we are supposed to believe that Assad used chemical weapons so Obama can get us into this war.

If he used them once, and that led Obama to get into the war, why wouldn’t he just open the door and turn chemicals loose on the whole part of Syria occupied by rebel forces?

What would he have to lose?

"The main argument against other causes was the notion that too many people would be involved to keep it secret."

It sort of isn't a secret...that's...why we're talking about it.
