If anyone has done independent research, they would see that the evidence clearly points to the plane being shot down. While it seems like the passengers did try to get a revolt going, that did not cause the crash. The plane was shot down by the government. Plain and simple. No stupid wacky conspiracy theories, that is what happened.

The closest air support was 150 miles away. What'd those planes launch? Cruise missiles?

Where are links to your "independant research" that shows this so-called evidence?

How do you know that? Not agreeing with the shot down theory (incling towards it), but if the gov't would cover up the plane being shot down (I wouldn't blame them if they did) it wouldn't be hard for them to fudge the numbers a little.

You really think the government released numbers, statistcs and information is 100% accurate? They are holding back tons of information as they would with any big event.

Like I said, do your own research and you will eventually see how things don't add up.

I did record it using windows media center edition, so its in dvr-ms format. I have no host either.

how do things not add up? i could do my own research, but i have no reason to do it as you have given no proof of it being shot down.

eyewitness light aircraft said the plane crashed, there was no trail of smoke, no nothing.

Discovery said the nearest military aircraft to the plane was ~30 minutes away when it crashed, and they had not given permission to shoot down planes until ~30 minutes after the plane crashed...

now your evidence?

 

[Kremlar]

now your evidence?

The problem is, there's no consistent evidence or eyewitness reports. There are easily as many reports of an in-air explosion as reports saying it did not appear to be shot down.

Check out this webiste, there is a lot information if you want to wade through it:

EDIT: I apologize for my earlier comment Nik. I was annoyed about something else and took a cheap shot at you. I'm sorry.

My problem with the passenger revolt version of the demise of flight 93 is the magic cell phones. Cell phones that can maintain connections while traveling hundreds of miles per hour, skipping from cell to cell, four or five miles up, through the belly of an aircraft, connecting with cell towers that are designed to transmit and receive signals coming in from certain directions where up ain't one of the directions for which the antennas were designed. Those are amazing cell phones.

That coupled with Rumsfeld's 9/12 statement that Americans may never be told what happens in this war cause me to be open to the possibility that the plane was shot down.

I heard from a friend who had a friend in the military that is was shot down a little while after it happened. I know friend of a friend storys are usualy bunk yadda yadda but to me it seems to make the most sense. Especially the hightened media coverage of the revolt and if indeed it was heading towards a nuclear power plant or the capital building. Do you think the Islamics would have ditched the plane into the middle of a field if they were being overtaken? I don't know. but it being shot down makes the most sense to me. I guess that we will probably never know in our lifetimes.

Nobody's quite sure WTF happened with that plane. I give it a tossup between shoot-down, passenger rebellion somehow resulting in the plane being driven into the ground, and the pilot failing at the mission of flying. The reason the passenger rebellion story is the accepted one is simple. First, it doesn't make us look defenseless. Second, it's better to commend the actions of a crowd of civilians than it is to commend the actions of a single fighter pilot - both from a PR and public relations standpoint.

This is not to belittle any actions that may or may not have taken place. If they did go for it, nothing but respect. If they didn't, well, they were going to.

As we (Journey) were watching this whole thing unfold on TV, I distinctly remember the newcaster commenting on a US Fighter downing a plane. We switched channels and heard it repeated ONCE more. Then the story was "unconfirmed" then it was never mentioned again except for denials. The fact that a turbine flywheel was found some hundred miles from the crash site was never explained. The NEOCON manual for a new America required martyrs for national unity to form. As if the thousands in the WTC were not enough.
Just as the Gulf of Tonkin incident was eventually exposed as a lie foisted on the American public to draw the US into the VietNamese people's internal conflict, so shall the truth of the attack on the WTC, in time.

I'm not usually a 'government cover up' kind of guy, but I still think there's a good chance that plane was shot down.

Too many eye witnesses say otherwise.

Eye witnesses are rarely 100% accurate. Ask any DA or defense attorney.

hmm looks like its worth a watch
