"one engine of the aircraft punched a 12-foot hole through the wall of the second ring: "

There was one entry point yes? So what - after the wings hit the pentagon and "Any sizable portions of the wings were destroyed in the explosion or the subsequent fire" one of the engines (that would have struck the wall) somehow then just moved either left or right into the airplane's main body to carry on it's journey into the rest of the pentagon. Also - if one engine can puncture a hole through the pentagon, why cant the other?

I dont necessarily believe in the conspiracy theory, but I do think that this snopes thing provides as much evidence as some of the whackiest conspiracy theories.

Evidence by snopes
"damage to the building caused by the plane's wings is plainly visible in photographs"

I can see NO damage to the building caused by the wings.

The problem with something like this - is that IF it were a conspiracy then it is pretty easy to accumulate hundreds, hell THOUSANDS of witnesses that all spoke to the FBI/CIA/NSA/WHOMEVER directly.

Ummon, yeah I agree - but 1) the where'd the other engine go. I can understand the wings dissolving, melting - whatever. Engines dont melt or dissolve. 2) yes they are chaotic processes, but there is little evidence of chaos. There is a clean puncture wound, not a huge clusterfuck.

Perhaps it was a 757 that by some quirk of fate produced no wreckage, and had parts of the plane vanish (after all there was NO significant wreckage). I dont dispute that. However the probability of that many IF's coming into line for this crash start numbering the number of IF's that the conspiracy theorists produce.

To show the american public What Japan, and Germany were really up to o0. Im not saying I beleive it but if we had fended off an attack with minimal casualties who says the states wouldve backed fdr ?

Wow, if anything you guys and gals are fun!!!! The truth is the plane penetrated all the way to biulding three of the Pentagon. Planes are made entirely of aluminum, plastics etc... they disentegrate into little tiny peices at 200+ miles per hour. Whatever was left, burned in the ensuing fire. The only thing is that there should have been some wing debri, because this is the first thing to shear off in this kind of accident. By all accounts,there was little or no debri. Physically there should have been some part of the tips of the wings left outside the impact area. I'm just guessing............

SUAS, both engines may have flown off, one connecting directly with a supporting beam while the other engine flew through the wall. If the engine was no longer attached to the 80 ton plane a steel support beam, running through the building would most likely have been enough to stop it, completely warp and demolish it's shape (quite similar to a bullet if you've ever watched the impact of one) and then add in the fire which was hot enough to melt support beams, which were coated in a special concrete designed to prevent then from melting, it would have been hot enough to cause the engine to further warp, possibly even turning it into a pile of molten slag, and then simply dismissed as part of the reckage of the building or other parts of the plane. And yes I do know what I am talking about, as I have had very similar conversations about 9/11 with my father, who was a building inspector, who's job was to actually know these things. I then had another similar conversation about 9/11 with another friend who is an architect and designed several buildings.

were it a missle, why would it punch a 12 foot hole in the wall in a spot PAST the explosion? Or were it a fighter jet that for some unknown reason crashed into the building (you'd think bombing would work better in a jet) The engines are behind the plane, and would not have punched a hole beyond the point of impact.

Finally, have you ever tried to get 10 people to keep a secret? let alone a secret as big as this one? It's kinda hard to keep them from telling friends, who then can't resist and tell more friends. Now, make those 10 people 100, and make them people who are known around the area, known not to work for the government, several of whom know people lost in the crash. I would imagine you'd be quite hardpressed to keep said secret. THEN, make up 67 fake people, say they died, then find several hundred more people to say "My friend/family member was on flight 77". Then you would have to convince another hundred or so people at the airport to say there was a flight 77, we lost contact with it, etc. Okay, found all those people? now did you do it without having anyone turn you down and go around saying "OMG he asked me to make up this big lie about flight 77 crashing!"

My point is, there would be too many people to be involved in such a huge lie, about something so completely against human morals, for such a lie to ever hold in the face of scrutiny.

As for the quotes about people who heard the jet and said "it sounded like a fighter jet." Can you tell me honestly that you know exactly the difference between the sound of a 757 and a fighter jet, particularly when no jet was specified, simply that it was "a fighter jet?". These quotes just come from people who either want to sound smarter than they are, or actually believe they are smarter than they are.

And yes Angel, I have heard what happened, straight from the mouths of several people who actually saw it. It's called a news interview, I watched several eyewitnesses interviewed.


For instance maybe The rest of the world would be conquered right now back From when conspirators* say we let pearl harbor happen. To show the american public What Japan, and Germany were really up to o0. Im not saying I beleive it but if we had fended off an attack with minimal casualties who says the states wouldve backed fdr ?

Actually, we did know. We knew the japanese were of a mind to attack us, but in order to gain quite a bit we attempted to ignore it, and make several deals with them. Infact, there is documentation of a meeting of japanese and american officials, a normal occurence, inwhich japanese officials requested an extra long lunch break. Pearl harbor was bombed during said break. What americans did not know, was exactly when/where such attack was going to take place, and we did NOT send troops into the harbor knowing they were going to die that day. Conspiricy theorists like to use the "we knew they were thinking of attacking us" and turning it into "we knew exactly what was going to happen"
Pearl harbor conspiracies peaked my interest and i did alot of research into them because, said theories were in part to blame for making my exchange trip to japan a living hell. (looong story, don't ask)

SUAS, both engines may have flown off, one connecting directly with a supporting beam while the other engine flew through the wall.
There was ONE entry point into the building...not 2, not 3.
My question was how the engine got from however many metres to the left (assuming it was the right engine that puntured) of the hole, into the hole...

You say that the engine could have melted in the fuel fire.... are you forgetting that an engine is designed to contain a continued pressurised explosion. In a modern engine the turbine inlet temperature will typically be around 1700 C... what temperatue was the fire created by the fuel - one that can melt an engine? I dont know - you tell me? I suspect that you have not thought this through, but were quite happy to state your entire theory as fact.

I dont believe it was a fighter jet, however, your point that the engines were behind the plane would be consistent with finding an engine inside (and a single engine at that).

I think it's easier to get a few people to lie, than it is to melt an engine...and you believe the engine melted. If someone did say - for example they saw something that wasn't a 757, or they knew that it WAS all a lie - what do you think will happen... people like you guys will call them conspiracy theorists.

The fact is, it could well be a conspiracy theory, will any of us know for sure? Not unless the US government is proven to have done it...which I find very unlikely... as I doubt they did.

There were not hundreds of eye witnesses... there were a few.

I would like to know if you got your eye-witness reports AFTER the witnesses saw a 757.

There are witnesses saying they saw it and it wasn't a 757... you're ignoring them too.

If there really were hundreds of witnesses that saw it (and identified it as a 757 straight away) then I will be more than happy to be wrong. I also dont doubt that the witnesses (however many of them there were) saw a plane crash into the pentagon... however... when you said it was a 747 on the other board, other people started calling it a 747 too...they even started quoting the weight of a 747 to prove it was one... You dont have to be evil or "in on it" to make this kind of mistake. You just have to believe it when you're told you saw a 757.

As far as I am aware, the majority of the INITIAL statements didn't mention a 757 at all, but rather a small passenger jet. It was only after a while did the 757 stories come out.

MVB
Nov 23, 2004, @ 12:56 PM
Suas, I rattled off 747 not because I thought it was a 747, but b/c I made a mis-statement. People make stupid errors about planes all the time.

If eyewitness accounts of plane type are totally accurate, than the conspiracy theory about the Pennsylvania plane being shot down are also BS, b/c eyewitnesses there swear the jet had multiple engines, yet the only jets within range and operating that day -- as given evidence for by the conspiracy theorists -- were F-16's, which have one very distinct engine, and distinctly have one engine only. What is appropriate is that eyewitnesses say they saw a jetliner go smashing into the Pentagon. I don't trust the judgements of the witnesses on what type of plane it was, b/c to be honest a lot of them saw a VERY large blur, much bigger than a missile. Fact is, it was a jetliner of some kind, and if they go "oh it was a 747" it's b/c they don't know jack about jetliners OR because they are making a mistake, and are banking on people not being stupid and obsessing over their faux-pa.

Additionally, a 757 with a bunch of passengers on board who now have bereaved loved ones is reported to have flown into it, according to air traffic records. So, not only are you attempting to assert that it's *possible* these many witnesses were totally mistaken regarding what plane they saw, but you're also attempting to assert that *all* of the family members and friends of those people lost were somehow tricked into believing their family members died smashing into the pentagon. Furthermore, you're attempting to assert that the actual 757 carrying these people was spirited away, along with all its passengers, and no sattelites or anything saw it at all, and neither did the civillian air traffic controllers in the area. Fact is, the idea of it being a conspiracy theory is about a 1 in a billion shot at the least, and it's just plain sensationalism to grasp onto that faintest of straws. This is one case where I absolutely find no credence to what you are saying, suas, and I think you're utterly wrong. That's ok, b/c you're welcome to believe it was a conspiracy if you choose to do so, but the overwhelming amount of evidence says otherwise, and it would require the mother of all coverups to have pulled this off in broad daylight in the middle of one of the busiest traffic zones in all of Washington, DC (which is quite the trafficky city anywhere you go in it to begin with).

Actually, I think the engine was SMASHED, then EXPLODED, then 'some' of it melted. The rest was just unrecognizable.

Uh Karma, I said I dont think it is a conspiracy theory, and I believe the official account.

I was just pointing out that shackled said couldn't have been true... so no, I dont have to prove anything. There are some parts of the story that people state as fact, which they (or anyone else) has any proof of, such as an engine melting... or that they think it smashed the melted...

Suas, I rattled off 747 not because I thought it was a 747, but b/c I made a mis-statement. People make stupid errors about planes all the time.
The point was - that after you made that mistake, other people started believing it to be true. One typo and people were telling me that the plane would have easily smashed through the wall because it weighed... (insert weight of 747 here).

I think the passenger reports are the strongest piece of evidence in support of the official (and almost certainly, truthful) version of events.

There was ONE entry point into the building...not 2, not 3.
My question was how the engine got from however many metres to the left (assuming it was the right engine that puntured) of the hole, into the hole...

That's my point, one engine managed to fly through through the wall creating ONE hole. the other engine smacked into a support beam or something similar and STOPPED, not creating another hole.

You say that the engine could have melted in the fuel fire.... are you forgetting that an engine is designed to contain a continued pressurised explosion. In a modern engine the turbine inlet temperature will typically be around 1700 C... what temperatue was the fire created by the fuel - one that can melt an engine? I dont know - you tell me? I suspect that you have not thought this through, but were quite happy to state your entire theory as fact.

Yes the engine is designed to handle INTERNAL heat, and with a working cooling system. The inside of the engine is better designed to resist heat. And now you have an engine no longer with a working cooling system, Weakened structural integrety, already hot from being used, and with the heat coming externally.

I dont believe it was a fighter jet, however, your point that the engines were behind the plane would be consistent with finding an engine inside (and a single engine at that).

Except why would the engine behind the plane, with exploding fuel tanks INFRONT of it, wind up making a whole infront of the plane?

I think it's easier to get a few people to lie, than it is to melt an engine...and you believe the engine melted. If someone did say - for example they saw something that wasn't a 757, or they knew that it WAS all a lie - what do you think will happen... people like you guys will call them conspiracy theorists.


MVB already commented intelligently on this, so I will only add, good luck finding people to lie about it, without finding anyone who will get all pissed at you asking them to lie about something like as horrible as this and reporting it. I don't think they're conspiracy theorists, I think they are people who A. want attention, or B. think they saw something different that what they actually saw.

That's my point, one engine managed to fly through through the wall creating ONE hole. the other engine smacked into a support beam or something similar and STOPPED, not creating another hole.
And so how did the fuselage get into the building to go crashing through to the third layer...as we've already established that the only hole in the pentagon was made by an engine?

Yes the engine is designed to handle INTERNAL heat, and with a working cooling system. The inside of the engine is better designed to resist heat. And now you have an engine no longer with a working cooling system, Weakened structural integrety, already hot from being used, and with the heat coming externally.
That is a good point well made - although it makes very little difference whether it is internal heat or external heat. The point however remains that there was NOT a huge ravaging fire outside the pentagon for ANY amount of time... If you can find me evidence of one - then I am willing to be proven wrong. This negates the ability to melt an engine.

Whoops - clicked post to early.

I am saying that it is more consistant that a fighter jet hit, based on the fact that the engine followed the plane into the pentagon.

Why cant the people that saw the 757 be the people that made the mistake? With various experts saying that there is no way a 757 could puncture through the pentagon, and various photo's of the burnt out engine outside the pentagon (which was about 1/3 the size of a 757)...

Moreover, since the airliner was full of jet fuel and was flown into thick, reinforced concrete walls at high speed, exploding in a fireball, any pieces of wreckage large enough to be identifiable in after-the-fact photographs taken from a few hundred feet away burned up in the intense fire that followed the crash.

In other words, there's no fuselage sections and that sort of thing." "You know, I'd rather not comment on that. - fire chief

The fire was so hot that firefighters could not approach the impact point itself until approximately 1 P.M. The collapse and roof fires left the inner courtyard visible from outside through a gaping hole.

All taken from the website already posted by karmashock. And an external fire would be more damaged as turbine engines are coated with another metal internally that is more heat resistant. Give a couple days to email a friend who works with the Canadian Air Force and I can get the name of that metal.

Plane wrecks do not "dissolve in intense fire" they are not sugar in water. How many planes have crashed and burned in such an intense fire? Some of them FULL of fuel on runways, some of them BOMBED with that amount of fuel.

Feusalage shape remains intact, large sections of the plane remain intact and in extremely intense and large explosions it remains intact at the very least in "ribs" where it is reinforced the most.

I am not agreeing with any of the theories or any arguments but I have seen damage to buildings done by american missiles and this looks EXACTLY like a clean missile hit.

The argument a plane wreck can simply disappear in a fire is fucking insane.

PSY, most plane crashes, the plane tends to skid and roll, sending pieces scattering, without much to burn for long periods of time. They also tend to have slowed down quite a bit before crashing. This plane slammed into reinforced concrete that had just been designed for something similar to this. Add in the fact that the plane is now mostly inside a building so most pieces that sheer off cannot go very far, and it's quite possible that so little could be left of the wreck. 757's and just about any other passenger planes are actually quite flimsy POS's in order to cut down on weight.

Here be what I posted: AVAST!


Cruise missiles cause big explosions, you know, like this:

http://www.lscommand.com/tlsc/images/boom.gif

Cruise missiles come in from high angles, above 45 degrees to deliver as much force as possible. They don't curve upward at the last minute and fly through buildings.

http://www.lscommand.com/tlsc/images/pentagonslumping.gif

Notice how the Pentagon actually has most of that side still intact. If a cruise missile hit that and caused an explosion (like the one above), debris is thrown all about. The debris would not be "slumped" like that.

See any debris on the lawn? No. Go hunt some UFOs. :disagree:

What's more likely though is that after discussing it, we'll all have a clearer idea of exactly what all the facts were.

How does proving it's not a cruise missle (which I really dont think you've done) prove that it wasn't a fighter jet, or that it wasn't a 757 with a depleted uranium bunker buster in it. C'mon.

For stealth - what if it wasn't a high-explosive warhead - what if it was a penetration only warhead...
For MVB - C'mon, finding a photo that doesn't contain an engine or whatever in it does not prove that there are never engines.

Cruise missiles come in from high angles, above 45 degrees to deliver as much force as possible. They don't curve upward at the last minute and fly through buildings.
Actually, they dont come in from high angles... they skirt as low to the ground as physically possible for them. Who said anything about curving upwards?

MVB
Nov 24, 2004, @ 03:01 PM
Additionally, cruise missiles do not handle like sports cars. The MINIMUM operating altitude of cruise missiles is 100 feet above the ground, but even those top-of-the-line missiles operate more usually at 400-500 feet above the ground. They do impact targets at an angle, because they must down-angle to hit them from their relatively high altitudes. Fighter jets ALSO do not handle like sports cars. There are only a few pilots in the world who can hit the side of a building with perfection, and they are not the kind of pilots that sacrifice themselves. Additionally, they cannot sneak past highways and other buildings, get low and then hit a building dead on in any normal fighter jet for the simple reason that they move at very high velocities. Jetliners such as the 757 can actually stay airborne at much lower speeds than fighter jets can, partially due to the much bigger wings, and partially due to the massive thrust of their engines.

This is all moot, though, b/c you can look at stealth's photo and be an eyewitness yourself; that's not what the impact of a cruise missile does.

MVB
Nov 24, 2004, @ 03:09 PM
You do not need a depleted uranium bunker buster to do that damage.

Do you know how bunker busters work? The whole purpose is a heaily reinforced delivery system that allows the missile to penetrate reinforced walls BEFORE exploding. If it were sitting in the 757, and the 757 somehow could not penetrate the wall, the bunker buster would be worthless. It's not like it has some super explosive which blows the bunker away. Where did you think that having a bunker buster sitting in a 757 would somehow make it more effective at penetrating the pentagon?

You see?
http://www.ippnw.at/omeganews/26-04/bunkerbuster.JPG
Through the wall before exploding, using speed + reinforced design to penetrate.

This is a case, suas, where a) you have proof that engines can be totally demolished and leave no trace in a plane crash, and those were pictures of an accident on the ground, not flying full speed into the side of a building, then being exposed to searing heat, and as shattered already pointed out -- these engines are meant to withstand high heat FROM THE INSIDE when their cooling systems are operational; they actually expect very cold temps on the outside. b) you have proof that the impact site looks like a large passenger liner hit it and went plowing through the wall; c) you've seen from critta a movie of a high speed jet hitting such a reinforced wall and just incinerating totally, not penetrating the wall ... this would prove that it could not POSSIBLY have been a fighter jet; d) you've seen the impact of cruise missiles and now a bunker buster ... they leave radial damage, and not angled "this looks like a plane hit me" damage; they also EXPLODE instead of simply catching fire and burning randomly; explosions are generally also radial, and within the confines of said building, even if the missile somehow knocked down a weird fixture, there would have been a noticeable epicenter from the blast; e) you have many eyewitnesses who can attest to it being a jetliner; f) you have the 757 on record MISSING and not being accounted for, with flight-path evidence from air traffic controllers, and all of those missing people and pilots, all within the timeframe of the flight itself, and no explanation for how they somehow vanished.

Your answer is a bunch of high-improbability what-ifs. Your "suggestions" of what-if are literally worthless in the eyes of the truth on this one. Allow for the possibility of conspiracies if you want, but you're much smarter than this, suas.

shutupandshave
Nov 24, 2004, @ 03:29 PM
a) Nope - Where is that proof - I missed it?
b) and you think it would look any differently if it were something else?
c) Nope - Where is this movie?
d) I have not seen what happens to a reinforced building AFTER being hit with a bunker buster. Not all of them carry explosive charges...
e) and also have eye witness accounts saying it wasn't
f) yes - exactly... which although I dont know ANYONE this happened too, or anyone who knows someone this happened too, this is the piece of evidence I believe.

As I said, I believe the official line on this... however I dont think ANY of this stuff (except f) is proof...

http://www.christian-patriots.us/PentagonCrashAnalysis.html This is a pretty reasonable analysis...although as ever there are things that dont add up.

MVB
Nov 24, 2004, @ 04:05 PM
This should answer most of your problem.

Additionally, it includes an analysis by Purdue university (he spells it Perdue, I think that's a typo) with even a 3D technical video they put together.

http://www.abovetopsecret.com/pages/911_pentagon_757_plane_evidence.html

a) above article talks about what happened to the engines, and includes photographic evidence OF the engines, even identifying the model type used by the plane, and matching it up with wreckage
b) the 3D modeling, as well as other descriptions, should shed light on why the impact looks identical to the impact of a 757 with the pentagon
c) I do not know the link; Critta posted it up first, on the older forums; it had a video on it of a fighter jet being slammed into a concrete reinforced wall and basically liquefying and doing no damage whatsoever; the site linked will also show the dimensional analysis of the hole photographed before the collapses, and how that matches the dimensions of the 757 near perfectly ... he uses photos and rationale from conspiracy theory sites
d) What you're missing from my point is that a bunker buster requires penetration to do any damage, and their primary function is being built in such a way that they PENETRATE a reinforced wall, THEN explode. They are made capable of penetration by means of their thrust and their design; by having a "turned off" bunker buster inside a 757, it would be no more useful than any kind of explosive, and in fact might be less useful, because they are designed NOT to explode as a result of impact, but as a result of program -- they hit a building, THEN wait and THEN blow up; you have to turn them on and activate an arming sequence, and you cannot do that unless they are fired up and flying, which this obviously was not if it was inside the 757
e) the eye witness accounts given should be plenty enough; what you're forgetting is that the plane flew over the damned highway, in the middle of traffic; that was the plan of the terrorists, and it is why they chose the morning to hit ... people are in places where they can't help but see it ... maximum exposure; the 'oh it wasn't a plane' witnesses are massively outnumbered
f) there also existed the corpses of the victims inside the pentagon; a good point is made that nobody saw a bunch of scary government agents carrying 60 bodies into the crash site while firemen and stuff were pulling other people out; you also have to account for the physical trauma to the bodies, which is consistent with a plane crash, and NOT consistent with being killed earlier, then somehow snuck inside a burning building in a perfect pattern with having been in an accident

shutupandshave
Nov 24, 2004, @ 04:23 PM
That was very informative, and pretty conclusive. Thanks.

d) If it were a big conspiracy, I doubt whomever would want to damage the pentagon - just to have it pierced would be ideal.
e) I still maintain that if the government had said it was a 747, or a 767 so would a lot of other witnesses.
f) I never saw any corpses (which is probably for the best) and if there are imaginary people on board an imaginary, than can be imaginary corpses too without much trouble.

The thing is with these things, is that a lot of the proof is relient on other proof, and it only takes one ambiguous thing to through both into doubt.

There is however another theory for the hoaxes... which was on a channel 4 program the other day...my Dad was telling me about it. In fact, I am going to start a new thread about it.

Thats why President Bush Senior left Saddam in power all those years, to keep the Shiites from coming to power and stomping Israel. It would have brought us to the brink of Israel unleashing tactical nukes. In which there are 30+ nuclear tipped cruise missiles parked in Israel pointed at their enemies, by the way.

Kyle: sources? Wait you are saying he never slept in the same place twice... I find that hard to believe.

In the context of this discussion, you are stating that people didn't assassinate saddam/hitler b/c doing so would have been stupid; that is wrong because people did genuinely try to assassinate him; in this discussion "nearly killing someone" and "killing someone" are quite identical.

In regards to Saddam, In 1991 we had elite special forces units in Baghdad right before we bombed the shit outa it, we knew right where Saddam was and they were just waiting for the order. It never came. The policy makers at large thought it would be better to leave him with a crippled government instead of letting the Shiites come to power. Then they thought, lets arm the Kurds and let them do it, we know how that turned out.........we should be far more worried about the Shiites. Don't ya'll find it interesting that all these Shiite clerics keep getting bumped off?

As far as Hitler, I'll ask my stepmother, she is from Bavaria, and was in Berlin before and after the war. Sad story.....

Odd, it's illegal to try and assassinate a head of state in the US.
Are you saying that the US broke the law?

I doubt the U.S. could be proven to have assassinated, or attempted to assassinate anyone.

Besides, I suppose if these people did exist, they weren't "in" the US.

No, the law states it's illegal to assassinate any heads of states anywhere I believe.

"President Ford signed Executive Order 12333 in 1976, which states clearly that ?Any official of the administration is prohibited from conspiring or involving themselves directly in assassination policies"."

Acts of War are not governed by that law, in which the President of the US has full executive powers in that regard. The CIA just gives arms and intelligence to whoever we deem feasible enough to carry out our policies. Thus circumventing that exact executive order, involving the USA indirectly. That is record ie; Iran, Iraq, Nicuragua, Chile, Columbia, Israel, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, etc. etc.

We tried to assasinate Saddam for years. The man was so paranoid he never slept in the same place twice.

Mvb said we couldnt be proven. Not necessarily never tried.

That states it right there. Its more considered an act of war than an at home. Problem. So again why would Kyle be wrong ?

Not really... the US has had an open policy on Saddam for awhile... however, the CIA has been dead for nearly 10 years so that's sort of like saying you're going to go hunting then melting your gun down...

As much as that seriously creeped me out...I think I have found the answer...It has stuff to do with unknown forces are whatnot but just hold on. I would explain my reasoning behind all of this since I just discussed with a friend but I'm too freaked out to admit to the possible truth of my words...Anyway I shall be back tomorrow to explain...I need to go investigate some more. And yes I am being serious, I am possibly thinking aliens. NO FLAMING!!! Please. Maybe I can be useful in finding some more info. :P

Hitler was nominated to the Nobel Price before the War. There wont be Nobel Price today if it would be given to him.
