    Hmmm... there's like three threads about in the last
    5 days, and there are still things left to wonder, even after reading Splunge/wf's article... whereever *did* all of the plane go? and the fuel?
    Questions that were asked by others, but this is the only surviving topic... someone illuminate me yes?

    According to the snopes article the plane was smashed to bits and much of it was burned up in the resulting fire. And the fuel? There was a fire that melted the steel that held up the floors above the hole for 35 minutes... perhaps the fuel contributed to the heat and smoke?

    Yes, that snopes article is poorly written, and doesn't address many questions raised by the conspiracy. There's a thread at another message board that I'm gonna try to find now in which my friend criticizes it with an uber-long post.

    I've got news for the rest of the world. The attacks never took place! I was in NYC last weekend, and the Towers are fine. We even rode up to the top to take pictures....We just hide them when foreigners are in town... :p

    I hate this conspiracy theory crap! :rolleyes:

    We've been to the Moon.

    The Holocaust happened.

    Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone.

    The WTC and Pentagon were struck by planes!

    Come on folks!

    Sir Bel - I was with you all the way until this one. I didn't even know that anyone still believed this "official" load of dung that the Warren Commision left on the doorstep of the American people. They were smart to seal the records until they had all gone on to a place where they could not be made to answer for their collective decietfulness.

    If one says: "11/9 was an Israeli stunt, no jews were killed in the WTC attacks..." I call that a conspiracy theory. The pentagon affair is not quite there yet imo.

    There are oddities in the official version and the authorities seem in no hurry to fill the plot holes.
    Add to that the fact that the current administration has been caught lying a few times before and you're bound to see legitimate suspicions arise.

    And Oswald? Come on. :)

    It's total bollocks. Why the hell would the government seek to damage the pentagon? How would it know on exactly the same day that three other planes would also be hijacked? There would be NO REASON for the government to attack its own damn buildings. Even if the Pentagon WASN'T attacked there would still be just as much anti-terrorist attitude. The twin towers were the main meal here, the pentagon was just an on-the-side in comparison.

    Also to accuse the governement of this is to accuse the government of murdering the passengers on the plane that crashed into the pentagon, people don't just 'disappear'.

    And for some of the comments in the flash "It sounded like a missile." I don't think they mean it WAS a missile, it just sounded like one and they felt like being dramatic. But most of these bystanders aren't exactly military personell so they wouldn't know what a missile sounds like in the first place!

    Don't post bullsh*t like this, especially not three damn times! If you believe this then there is something seriously wrong with you.

    First off, I must say, that don't you believe that it is a bit dumb to call a lot of people seriously wrong. I know I am VERY sceptical about the explonations offered by that snopes.com website and since a lot of people are posting this, it means that there is at least a rather big group believing this.

    Now, don't post bull**** like you did there. You have posted 846 posts, and if you believe on yourself, there is something seriously wrong with you.

    See, one gets offended by comments like that. ;)

    Looks like tempers are starting to flare, or are about to flare, in this thread. Let's pull the plug on this now before it gets ugly.

    Sorry Beren. Over-reaction on my part but I'm up to my neck in conspiricy and hearing something for the third damn time in a row... you get the picture.

    Apologies to anyone I may or may not have offended.
