"There was nothing on the tape that would lead us to believe that it was anything other than an aviation accident," he said, quashing speculation hijackers might have been on board in a repeat of the Sept. 11 aerial attacks on America.
They push the assumption that we REALLY believe that terrorists would repeat the performance of 9/11 in exactly the same way. Of course there were no terrorists on board of flight 587, the sabotage could easily have taken place on the ground.
You're right, consider the source (Reuters).
Matt Loser asked Mayor G point blank after one of his repsonses, "then what I hear you saying is that you think this was an accident and that you are ruling out terrorism" Mayor G corrected him saying "I am not ruling anything out at this point."
I personally think this was/is a cover up or at least we are in the initial stages of an attempt to cover this up. If someone in the administration doesn't come out saying this was a terror attack, the media would like nothing better than to expose this administration. Though they didn't have the berries to expose TWA 800 because it would make Slick look bad. Make no mistake. If this was indeed sabotage by Ahmid the Baggage Handler, it will get out with headlines saying the BUSH administration tried to cover it up lied to the people. They tried to throw mud on the admin about when they say the gov't knew about the anthrax,but didn't let the people know.
I just pray we are not playing the usual ugly government game of the people are idiots. It worked for Clintoon it will not work for us.
