If you are not addressing the evidence presented direct then there is not a need for you to reply in this thread.
Ok let's discuss your evidence.
In your video about 18 minutes in, you are asking a man with a very thick accent about what color the plane was while showing him photographs at the
same time.
Here is his testimony:
'Yeah black and then this one... I saw some grey... I think this one is uh... (question about one or two engines) yeah yeah I saw this one
not two engines.'
(The questioner states people saw more than one plane in the area and shows the witness a picture of a C-130 and asks if he saw more than one
plane)
'No only one.. .only one'
(questioner keeps saying other people saw more than one and asks if he only saw one)
'You know how, you know how big this airplane? Yeah if this one that much lower kind of all ground vibrate'
(you only saw one the whole time?)
'Looks like the uh... shoom! And then I saw the uh kind of a feeling grey kind of a round one go this way'
(questioner leads the subject again asking if the wings were dark)
'Yes kind of a grey. Not black not completely black like this... but dark grey. Yeah.'
As a side note here I just want to say that anyone who has flown on American Airlines knows that the AA planes are aluminum and that control surfaces
and engine housings are painted gray.
The interviewer goes on to state how this eyewitness makes the official story 'impossible'.
Now... contrast this 'evidence' with a statement given by Richard Benedetto on May 22, 2002, who was driving northbound on the highway in front of
the Pentagon.
"I heard an airplane. A very loud airplane. ... I heard the airplane coming from behind me. ... So I looked up, and I saw this airplane
coming, heading straight down toward the ground. It was an American Airlines airplane, I could see it very clearly. ... The plane went down and for a
split second it was out of my line of vision because there was a bridge there and a hill. ... I didn't actually see the impact... I didn't see any
flaps, it looked like the plane was just in a normal flying mode but heading straight down, sharply down. It was straight. No flopping. It was going
pretty straight. ... The only thing we saw on the ground outside there was a piece of a - the tail of a lamp post."
Omar Campo - cutting the grass across the road, interviewed by The Guardian on September 12, 2001:
"It was a passenger plane. I think an American Airways plane," Mr Campo said. "I was cutting the grass and it came in screaming over my
head. I felt the impact. The whole ground shook and the whole area was full of fire."
Another witness, Dennis Clem:
"There was a commercial airliner that said American Airliners over the side of it flying at just above treetop height at full speed headed for the
Pentagon."
Cmdr Mike Dobbs, USMC, standing INSIDE the Pentagon when it hit:
"It was an American airlines airliner. I was looking out the window and saw it come right over the Navy annex at a slow angle. It looked to me
to be on a zero-to-zero course. It seemed to be almost coming in in slow motion. I didn't actually feel it hit, but I saw it and then we all started
running."
Penny Elgas, stuck in rush hour traffice on I-395 in front of the Pentagon:
It was far enough in front of me that I saw the end of the wing closest to me and the underside of the other wing as that other wing rocked
slightly toward the ground. I remember recognizing it as an American Airlines plane -- I could see the windows and the color stripes. And I remember
thinking that it was just like planes in which I had flown many times but at that point it never occurred to me that this might be a plane with
passengers."
William Lagasse - Defense Protective Service:
"It was close enough that I could see the windows and the blinds had been pulled down. I read American Airlines on it." "I didn't hear
anything, but I saw the aircraft above my head about 80 feet above the ground, 400 miles an hour. The reason, I have some experience as a pilot and I
looked at the plane. Didn't see any landing gear. Didn't see any flaps down. I realized it wasn't going to land. I realized what it was
doing."'
Would you like to continue with 'evidence' and 'scientific proof' or would you still like me to start my own thread?
