In a just world, this community would get answers to their ongoing questions.
It doesn’t need to be large if it is well placed.
Is that what they call a Freudian slip?
An El Al flight was immediately behind flight 800. That probably was target
Anderson not buying the ole center fuel tank ruse?
I have wondered why it was a target
As someone who lived on LI when it was shot down, it was amazing to hear the lies as the story went national.
The US Nave was in the area and there was an ‘exercise’ going on. So maybe it was an air to air missile with a dummy warhead.
If I’m not mistaken, Arafat was “in town” on that day, dragging along his bureaucratic thugs.
I’ve speculated that CIA, with the knowledge of Billy Jeff, offered weaponry to the PLO. A military training event was being held in the general area of NY, NY.
Somewhere near LI-NY, on a military obervance skiff, certain missiles were being considered for transaction. Our CIA spooks pointed out a floating target for testing; The PLO thug pointed the weapon at flight 800 as it ascended.
Everybody clammed up and a “credible lie” was formulated (AKA: B.L.E.V.E. in center fuel tank).
Cluntons should be hung for this.
And he kept ignoring terrorism until they took down the towers.
Read Dereliction of duty.
They knew of this plan in 96.
That fat slunt hitlary was yelling at Bush about what did he know and when to divert attention from the rapist.
So TWA 800 was shot down becasue Anderson Cooper said so. Well thank God that mystery has finally been put to rest.
If he had been listening to G. Gordon Liddy or Quinn and Rose, he would have known that before the calendar flipped to 1997.
The altitude is more of a factor then it’s size. Even a small portable missile will bring down a 747 if it damages the wing when it hits fuel or other major component.
However it takes a big missile to reach that altitude.
For those who didn’t go to the source, Cooper apologized for “misspeaking” at the end of the show.
The CIA’s theory of a “Zoom Climb” is absurd and contradicted by dozens of credible witnesses.
I just want to correct something I said regarding the plane crash, earlier I said that today was the anniversary of flight TWA 800, crashing off the coast of Long Island in 1996. I believe I said that it was shot down, obviously the government said it was a center fuel tank explosion. Although some people indicated they saw a rocket, there was no evidence of that. It was ruled to be a center fuel tank explosion, so I apologize for misspeaking about that anniversary.
The disgusting fag with the brown ring around his mouth speaks as an authority.

FACT CHECKING: John Goglia
Former NTSB Board Member Goglia recently published a review of our documentary for Forbes magazine. TWA Flight 800 documentary Science Advisor Dr. Tom Stalcup responds below.
Goglia: No Evidence in Aircraft Fuselage Wreckage of Explosion Next to Aircraft
FACT CHECK: This is inaccurate. China Lake expert Richard Bott wrote the TWA Flight 800 Missile Impact Analysis report for the NTSB and determined that an inward penetrating hole on the left side of the aircraft was consistent with a missile diving down from above and to the left of the aircraft. Bott, whos analysis focused on small shoulder-launched missiles said that this scenario was hard to imagine. However, for larger proximity fused missiles, this attack scenario can and does occur. Furthermore, witnesses reported seeing just such a scenario.
Goglia: Eyewitness Accounts Not Supported by Radar
FACT CHECK: This is inaccurate. Many eyewitnesses reported a south-bound missile-like object, heading out to Flight 800. Witnesses said that the object exploded at the aircraft. This asymmetric south-bound explosion was recorded clearly by two nearby FAA radar facilities: one at MacArthur Islip Airport and the other in White Plains, NY. A missile exploding a distance above the left wing is consistent with the radar evidence, the hole described above in Botts report, and the observations of many eyewitnesses including Major Fred Meyer, a former helicopter rescue pilot in Vietnam who was flying a mission for the NY Air National Guard in a Black Hawk helicopter nearby at the time. Major Meyer and his crew were first to arrive at the crash site for search and rescue. Both Major Meyer and his co-pilot Captain Chris Baur believe a missile caused the crash.
Goglia: Trace Amounts of Chemical Residue Common on Everyday Objects
FACT CHECK: This is inaccurate. PETN and RDX are explosives used in missile warheads. They are never found in every day objects unless those objects come into contact with these explosives. Residue from these explosives were found all over the aircraft.
Goglia: The aircraft fuel tank and surrounding floor and ceiling debris show metal pieces bowed consistent with extreme pressure from inside the fuel tank.
FACT CHECK: This is not true for the left wall of the tank. Evidence of metal curling into the center wing tank from the left indicates that the pressure entered the tank through the wall between the left wing fuel tank and the center wing fuel tank. Once that pressure entered from the left, then the entire center tank would over pressurize causing outward bowing of the other walls. This is another important piece of evidence that supports the missile scenario described above: a detonation above the left wing.
Goglia: During the entire four years of the NTSB investigation of TWA 800, no one including Hank Hughes ( petitioner and former NTSB investigator) ever came to me and claimed that evidence was being tampered with or covered up.
FACT CHECK: Hank testified under oath before the US Senate about this in 1999 prior to the NTSB final hearing on TWA 800. He also complained directly to Investigator In Charge Al Dickinson and others prior to testifying before the Senate. Why would he go to Goglia when Goglia was not assigned to TWA 800? Under oath before the Senate, Hank testified that the FBI mishandled and tampered with evidence. Hank described to the Senators an incident where one FBI agent was banging on a piece of wreckage with a hammer attempting to flatten it.
Goglia: Since there was no testimony provided to indicate any improper motives, it is spurious to conclude that a few allegedly changed colors on a few debris field tags indicate a cover-up or a conspiracy.
FACT CHECK: There was no testimony because the NTSB Board did not allow this testimony at either of the two hearings on the crash, even though repeated requests to address this significant problem were made by many investigators. A formal request was also made by TWAs legal team, and it was ignored. This evidence tampering was finally discussed in a meeting with Hank, other crash investigators who shared Hanks concerns, the offending party, and the NTSB General Counsel. Even after this meeting, Hanks concerns were never addressed and the unauthorized changes to the debris field database remain today.
Goglia: The possibility of a missile or bomb taking down the aircraft was thoroughly examined.
FACT CHECK: Not quite. In the NTSB final report, they mention looking into one type of missile: the smaller type designed to explode on impact with a target. The hot gases and particles ejected very close to aluminum from these missiles leave unique signatures such as pock marks, which proximity fused missiles that explode a significant distance away from their targets do not create. Since no pock marks were found, the NTSB ruled out impact by a shoulder-launched missile. However, no where in the final report does the NTSB mention comparing any evidence with damage signatures of proximity fused missiles, which are capable of exploding above and a distance away from the aircraft.
Goglia: In the end, the totality of the evidence the metal damage around the center fuel tank, the sequencing of the airplane break up, the radar data, the voice and flight recorders, the multiple tests of various theories all led the Board to conclude unanimously that the probable cause of the TWA accident was an explosion of the center fuel tank.
FACT CHECK: The board members settled on what they admit is an inconclusive probable cause because the conclusive evidence of an external detonation was not considered. As an example, 97 percent of the 100+ explosive detections were never considered. Board members were also not provided with any analysis comparing the documented inward penetrations in the fuselage to damage from proximity fused missiles, with which such holes are fully consistent. Likewise, spike tooth fractures (created by high energy events such as warhead detonations) found throughout the aircraft were not compared to proximity fused missile damage. In fact, the word proximity fused missile does not appear in the NTSB final report.
No analysis of the detonation that caused the crash, as recorded by two nearby FAA radar sites, was every mentioned or discussed at either NTSB public hearing.
Neither Goglia nor any board member heard a single eyewitness testify, out of 670 identified. Instead, they were misled by some of their own investigatorsone being the investigator responsible for altering the debris field recovery location informationregarding what the witnesses actually saw. On a June 24th, 2013 NPR interview, Goglia rhetorically asked why interview all the witnesses if they all saw the same thing. Host Tom Ashbrook answered, because 230 peopled died.
My mouth dropped when I heard it live on CNN when Mr. Vanderbilt said that. I said to myself “you jerk we knew this all along that the plane was shot down”
I never believe what the government explanation was by how many people witnessed that awful night. I recall CNN interviewing a young 12 year old male and he said that he saw something shooting upward over some hill and he turned to his mother and said “Hey mom, look! someone is throwing fireworks over there” and the next thing there was a fireball.
Then CNN interviewed a FBI Agent who had the day off. He stated that he saw something shooting upward and the next thing a big fireball exploded.
No one can’t tell me that was due to some fuel tank. That plane was shot down and Bill Clinton has blood on his hands. Actually both Clintons has blood on their hands. They will pay for it when they stand before God. I pray that one day justice will be served in behalf of those victims.
Cooper was none too kind in his remarks on the Griever in Chief. His title, not mine,
The missile was a telemetry bird with no warhead. The seeker of the missile would have targeted the center of mass (center fuel tank) because it gave the best radar return. The missile acted like a cookie cutter, punching through the plane from bottom to top. In the process, the missile airframe disintegrated. Spilling fuel was either ignited by burning missile propellant or the jet engine exhaust. That's my theory and YES, everyone involved will keep this secret. SAC Kalstrom’s investigation was a whitewash.
