The question isn't why would the goverment lie so much as why would the government make such a stupid obvious lie when the truth was almost as bad.

Had the terrorists managed to get a truck bomb into the pentagon that would show that they weren't one trick ponies and would actually have been scarier than if they had only used a jet.

I'm perfectly willing to believe the American government would lie. I just don't believe they would lie when the truth would serve just as well and couldn't be embarrasingly denounced a few days later.

Um my friends mom saw it happen. She WAS there driving past it. Plus the building is designed to take a pounding, made of tons of concrete, The WTC was niot designed to take that kind of punding, as can be seen by the abundance of glass wood and steel (which gets weak from fire).


Whoever wrote that is a idiot.

Besides the jet was probably vaporised hitting such a hard surface, then exploding.

Same here. I seriously wouldn't put it past this administration to  pull something like this. They just ended up using it as an excuse for a major power grab.
"The reason for this is that the original Fortran got so convoluted and extensive (10's of millions of lines of code) that no-one can actually figure out how it works, there's a massive project going on to decode the original Fortran and write a more modern system, but until then, the UK communication network is actually relying heavily on 35 year old Fortran that nobody understands." - Flipside

Just wanted to see what people's reactions and translations of what that page claims would be. :) I myself was put into doubt about the whole thing... until I ran across the page debunking it a few posts later. :p

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

Its still a double negative which is ackward....I had SEVERAL science teachers all use double negatives on a regular basis and you didn't know if they were coming or going because the language was so hard to understand (and I never took science again either).  When in doubt, say it without a double negative (this is pet peave number 2 of mine don't take it personally :D).

This whole thing is still definately BS....its like the other conspiracy theories that you commonly see which toss around the ideas like we never went to the moon, the earth is flat, and so on and so forth.  I believe in plenty of conspiracy theories that have some kind of grounding (hey, there are conspiracies and secrets do need to be kept even in the most transparent of governments) but many don't have any grounding and this is one of them.

Check it out, there's a woman in the debunking report called Judy Biggert. It's just a shame she represents Illinois and not somewhere in the south...

That's disgusting :D It's "takes a licking and keep on ticking", lol.


Anyway, I never knew about this "conspiracy". The US probably just did it to drum up more anti-terrorism propoganda.

dude, there was video of the plane hitting the pentagon that day from a security camera on CNN. it was the only known video to show it. the plane itself didnt actually hit the building wall, it REALLY hit the dirt right before the wall, more like within 15-20 yards of the wall, and the explosion ripped forward (as was the force of the plane, then that resulting explosion was propelled forward). ifit was a head on colission it woulda went thru the second and possibly the third ring.
