Ok.. once and for all... here is what
I think and why, since I've never actually offered it.
I had family both at the WTC plaza and in ring F of the Pentagon on 9/11. We didn't know my grandmother was alive until we saw her wandering around
in the background of a news report from Ground Zero. My aunt was on Wall Street that morning, but had she been at her desk she would be dead. All
her co-workers are dead. Her entire company is gone. She's still in therapy. My wife's uncle is a Lt. Colonel in the Air Force and was working in
his offices in
the west section of Ring F at the time of the impact. I wasn't made aware of this fact until we got on the subject at a family
gathering in 2005. Believe me or not, it's unimportant given we're discussing this on a conspiracy forum. If you really feel that it requires
confirmation we can work something out. I'd wager that this makes me a bit more personally invested in the events of 9/11 than most folks, perhaps
even you.
I think that the WTC and the Pentagon attacks need to be divorced in conversation because I believe there is more independent evidence to back the
version of events at the Pentagon then there is to back the version of events for the WTC. There are ample websites, experts and commentators that
support this, most notable being ae911truth.org.
I think that if there is a conspiracy that the Flight 77 FDR and radar data was altered after the fact (giving OpSec a smaller surface area) to
directly contradict the physical and photographic evidence.
I think that your investigative and deductive skills leave a lot to be desired. Your questioning of witnesses is both leading and incomplete.
Furthermore, you do nothing to verify testimony known to be different from earlier recorded statements. You even have witnesses admitting on camera
that they have "looked into" the events at the Pentagon since that time and offered nothing as to how you separated their eye witness accounts from
possible factual contamination. You take no physical measurements with the eye witnesses present and as a result your plots of the possible flight
paths as witnessed by each person are wholly unsubstantiated.
The 25% manipulation of facts surrounding the events at the Pentagon has led to a cottage industry in which you participate, either knowingly or
unknowingly. Your footage is included in a DVD for sale by P4T. One wonders if you are gaining royalties from the sale, if they used your material
without permission, or if you granted open rights to the information... in which case someone is making money from your efforts without your being
compensated.
I think you have taken the bait laid out by those who, if there is a conspiracy, set forth to confuse the issue in order to create just such a
conspiracy.
I think that about covers it and until you are able to offer a cogent theory as to how the light poles were damaged the north side fly over (and
subsequent fly off) remains only an intellectual curiosity.
