also there were no wings recovered at the site of the pentagon:confused:
READ THE FVCKING POPULAR MECHANICS ARTICLE.

The plane was disentegrated, but they found PLENTY of debris, parts, the black box, body parts of crew members, etc.

planes dont just disentegrate. but lets say it did. how come NONE of the lawn infront of the crash site was disturbed?
Because the plane hit the building, and not the lawn?

Besides, how do you KNOW nothing was disturbed? Did you go out there and take pictures?

i saw pictures
MANY people SAW the plane hit the Pentagon. There was a big ass hole, a fire, the black box from the plane, body parts of the crew members, etc, etc, etc.

It is not even an issue about the lawn. The plane was pretty much contained inside a very strong building.
Some people even want to make an issue about all the windows nearby not being blown out....they are blast-proof.

IT IS A HOLE, DUMBASS. Do you think the plane would have just hit and bounced off, leaving some paint marks?
My guess is, you dummies are thinking the plane hit while diving horizontally. My guess is it was sort of banking, with the wings up and down (or close to it) when it hit.
Look at the pictures. There was massive damage.

Plus, there was no lawn at the part where the plane hit the Pentagon.

And none of the other pilots in the air at the time, on other airlines, saw that plane heading to Cuba and reported it. So those pilots & co-pilots were all in on this too! Oh, and the Cubans at Havana Airport knew an American airliner would be arriving too. Dang! Is there anyone who's not in on this vast conspiracy? Does it ever end?!

For the "you'd need 30 stories of explosives" nutcases... you really think jets are *that* inaccurate?! (30 stories is roughly 300 feet = football field) -> it seems that all the jets I've watched land tend to go right down the center of the runway.

First, I'll amend my statement to there wasn't as much lawn as the other sides. There had been construction going on, and the lawn was not right up to the building.

Second, there is PLENTY of damage on the outside of the building. And it was caused by the plane.
You have to remember, that plane was very small compared to how big the Pentagon is.
I think something like 8 or 9 planes would have to be parked wingtip-to-wingtip to just cover ONE side. All the sides are over 900 feet long.

Third, and this completely closes the case, here are the pictures of the damage up close, with PLENTY of plane debris....wheels, landing gear, engine turbines, etc, etc.
The case is closed
One more edit:
# Review the facts
# Size of 757 matches the initial size of hole in the building - somewhere between 13 and 16 feet (757 is 13 feet wide/high)
# Rims found in building match those of a 757
# Small turbine engine outside is an APU
# Same engine has been clearly stated to not match a Global Hawk engine
# Blue seats from 757 laying on ground in photos
# Part of "American" fuselage logo visible in more than 1 photo
# Engine parts photographed inside match a Rolls-Royce RB211
# Structural components photographed in wreckage match Boeing paint primer schemes
# Large deisel generator in front of building hit by a large heavy object
# Large deisel engine outside is spun towards the building - could not be result of bomb blast or missile explosion
# Multiple eye witnesses say they saw an airliner
# Multiple eye witnesses say they saw an airliner hit the Pentagon
# 60+ bodies, matching the passenger list and flight crew roster identified and returned to families from Pentagon wreckage

All this evidence=only dumbasses think a plane didn't hit the Pentagon.

Most of you on the other side of this argument are deafeningly silent in response to my initial post in this thread. Whatsamatter -- cat got your tongue? ;)

Really, guys, I'm disappointed in you. You are soooo committed to your delusions, so adamant about your silly conspiracy beliefs, so blinded by your neurotic hatred, that I expected you to at least put forth some feeble excuse of a response.

But hey, that would require you to be honest, and that would lead to admitting you're wrong, which would in turn require you to change pretty much all of your misguided and viscerally dishonest views about the United States, the world, geopolitics, and -- most of all -- yourselves. And that would just be too painful, wouldn't it?

Much easier to just hoist another cup o' Kool Aid, isn't it? ;)

Like George Costanza says, "I'm out!" :moon:

I didn't say that was you... somewhere above, people were speculating that they'd need explosives on every 5th floor for 50 floors, then lowered that number to 30. I didn't feel like scrolling and quoting those people.

Ummm ... no offense (seriously), Galvanized Yankee and the rest of you on the other side of the debate, but what say you?

Okay, now I'm really done for the night. This was too good to resist. :laugh:

It's like trying to convince a Christian that ghosts can't get people pregnant. No matter how much logic or reason flies in their face, they're already sold on the idea.

IIRC, those photos are not taken at the impact point. The impact point is out of the field of view, meaning the only damage you would logically see is the fire damage.

You want a 9-11 conspiracy to rip apart? Here you go:

Explain how a cell phone stays connected for several minutes travelling 300-400 miles per hour, 5-7 miles high over rural Pennsylvania, inside a metal can. Remember, cell tower antennas are directional, designed to cover horizonal wedges. Yet the magic cell phones on that day merrily hopped from cell to cell under the worst possible reception conditions without dropping the calls.

The conspiracy: The Air Force shot that plane out of the sky and the "hero story" was made up out of whole cloth. No cell calls, no "Let's roll", no passengers retaking the plane, nothing. All made up to cover the shoot down.

Enjoy.
