This post is typical of what I mentioned in my last post. Filled with things found on the internet...but which either are not true or they ignore the
facts.
Yes, the BBC said that WTC7 collapsed before it actually did. However, try doing some research into just how many times the media, in their haste to
scoop the competition, get their facts wrong. For a few hours, FDNY and NYPD were stating how they were pretty sure the building was going to
fall....and the BBC blew it.
Then we have the hour and forty minutes garbage again. It took an hour to intercept Payne Stewart's airplane using fighters already in the air...and
its transponder was still beeping away.
Last but not least, we hear about the Pentagon's extensive missile defenses that the incoming aircraft must have had the codes to so it was
recognized as a friendly....This is the biggest load of garbage. On 9/11/2001, the Pentagon did not have ANY defenses other than its security force.
No missile emplacements, no gun emplacements....no anti aircraft capabilities of any kind...and most likely STILL does not have. Why? Because the
Pentagon lies right in the approach of Reagan National Airport and has aircraft flying over/past it all day long and it wouldnt do to have civilian
planes being shot down over Washington D.C. by accident. Even the portable sites that have been emplaced around D.C. on various parking garages will
never be used, because by the time an aircraft was actually identified as hostile and getting permission to fire, it would be too late to take action
against it.
But, keep on believing everything you read on the internet..I will stick with reality.
