Anyway, two versions will remain, those who say "it's true" & those who say "it's not true".
In fact there's a lot of mistery:
-The width of the Impact on pentagon's wall.
-Explosion blasts directions.(mostly to the sky, instead of spreading around the impact point)
-Small amount of AC debris found.
-Very low flying AC.(few inches above ground)
-Non-availability of any other video sources.(including pentagon's own camera sources)
Let's close this topic otherwise we'll be submerged of polemics, what do you think?
On 11/09/2001, I was working in an office about 500 meters from the West Side of the Pentagon. When I heard that the Pentagon had been struck by a plane and was on fire, I quickly went to the scene. I immediately noticed a large amount of debris and saw where the impact occurred, about 40 meters from the building. A plane caused the damage; had it been a missile, it was a very large missile with many, many tons of fuel on board! I assumed that the plane had missed its’ approach to National Airport, about 1,000 meters down river.
The smell of burning jet fuel was all over. There was NO smell of an explosive detonation, only kerosene. Many who believe in a broad US conspiracy point out the lack of a number of video films of the impact, showing the impact. The Pentagon’s video surveillance equipment was (since changed) a narrow band, freeze-frame system designed to pick up slow moving things, like automobiles and people. A plane traveling at 250 mph might make it into only 1 frame.
As to the charge that the impact area is not the size of a Boeing 757, I do not know how to answer this. The impact hole in the Pentagon’s wall was large and the wreckage bored through 3 wings of the just completed rehabilitation and reinforcement of the building. Frankly, I am amazed that a 757 could do as much damage as this plane did. When it hit the exterior wall, the wings just snapped back and the fuel exploded. The fuselage (diameter 12’ 4” or 3.7 meters) plowed through the building, which has since been rebuilt and further reinforced.
I do not know where these conspiracies start, but I am amazed by the lack of judgment some people exhibit when confronted by facts and evidence.
