Ya that one's done pretty well...

A friend of our family was a pilot for TWA, his comment on some of what happened is...'impossible'. No questions, just flat out impossible. But yet people buy it...These are some of the same people that are standing on the east coast of Florida...'cause it's us against the hurricane!'....

The Fifth Estate did a bit on 9/11 last year [even before Fahrenheit 9/11] about the Pentagon attack. They talked to people about what happened at the Pentagon, and it definitely was not a 747 that squeezed itself into a doorway [img]tongue.gif[/img] then magically disappeared.

Another case of mass deception?

By*LAWRENCE MARTIN
Thursday, September 2, 2004 - Page A17

Where are the bodies? Was the other big war of the last decade, Kosovo in 1999, triggered by bogus allegations as well? Another case of mass deception?

In Iraq, it's the missing mass weapons of destruction. In Kosovo, it's the missing mass graves.

In alleged ethnic cleansing exercises by Serbian leader Slobodan Milosevic, as many as 100,000 to 200,000 civilians were said to have gone missing or been killed in Kosovo, many of them buried in mass graves. Members of a Canadian forensic team to the Serbian province have come forward to label the numbers nonsense. No mass graves, they say, and, on both the Albanian and Serb sides, only a few thousand dead. A mockery of the numbers used to justify the war.

In The Hague this week, the war-crimes tribunal reopened with Mr. Milosevic's calling the genocide charges against him a lie and a treacherous distortion of history. He may well be the treacherous distorter. If his Serb armies weren't guilty as charged in Kosovo, there was his past record of bloodshed to consider. As someone wrote, Kosovo for Mr. Milosevic was like tax evasion for Al Capone: something they could nail him on.

But that doesn't excuse going to war on the basis of flim-flam. The Kosovo story has etchings of Iraq all over it. The United States (the Democrats this time) and Britain (Tony Blair again) demonize an enemy with fraudulent accusations. They play the gullible media, Canada's included, like a violin.

The latest person to debunk the genocide numbers is retired Vancouver homicide detective Brian Honeybourn, a member of the forensic team. He told The Ottawa Citizen this week that his nine-member group found mainly single graves, with a couple of exceptions being one of 20 bodies and another 11. He wonders how genocide charges against Mr. Milosevic can stand up. "It seems as though The Hague is beginning to panic."

Garth Pritchard, a Canadian filmmaker, accompanied the forensic team to Kosovo. "This was a massacre that never happened." He joined mission leader Brian Strongman in lambasting Canadian Louise Arbour, the special prosecutor for the tribunal that brought the charges against Mr. Milosevic. Ms. Arbour, now the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights, was used as a pawn by war-hungry Washington and London, they said. "I was standing there when the forensic teams were telling Louise Arbour there were no 200,000 bodies and she didn't want to know," Mr. Pritchard told the Citizen.

Ms. Arbour's career path lit up after her war-crimes work. She was appointed to the Supreme Court of Canada, then to her UN post.

The findings, or non-findings, of the Canadian forensic team are consistent with those of other teams of experts sent over since the war ended. At the time of the conflict, James Bissett, a former Canadian ambassador to Yugoslavia, and Lewis MacKenzie, a major-general with a wealth of experience in the Balkan theatre, took issue with the tales being spun. But they, as well as some voices in the media, were drowned out by the drumbeat of war. U.S. defence secretary William Cohen was alleging that as many as 100,000 Albanian Kosovars had gone missing. Mr. Blair, in a preview of his comportment on Iraq, was crying horror upon horror. President Bill Clinton wanted to shift the focus off his domestic problems -- Monica Lewinsky etc. -- and was gung-ho for a NATO invasion.

Looking back a couple of years after the conflict, defence minister Art Eggleton acknowledged that the propaganda coming out of the Pentagon was extraordinary. But the Chrétien Liberals, on close terms with the Clinton Democrats, weren't about to buck the White House on Kosovo, as they would on Iraq. The allies were all on board for an attack, making it extremely unlikely that Canada would be the odd one out.

But having everybody in the wagon doesn't excuse what happened. If the forensic teams' stories are correct, the missing dead in Kosovo is indeed a scandal comparable to the absence of WMD in Iraq. In a five-year period, political leaders twice duped their populations into going to war
........geez did I wakeup in an Orwellian nightmare or what.
Let's rewrite "history as we think we know it" a few more times.

I mean...THE GLOBE

Well, it's certainly an interesting film allright. Raises some questions, for sure.

But we do have to keep a few facts in mind here. One very pertinent one, is that aircraft are actually very flimsy lightweight structures. When they hit any soilid object like a building or the ground (or the Pentagon) they usually vaporise into tiny shreds of aluminium. Often,the only large parts that are left are the motors and the landing gear...especially in a high speed crash.

(that photo of the "punched out wall" could very well be from a jet engine. It's certainly the right size).

Another fact to keep in mind is that, while a commercial jetliner flies at "530 MPH"...it rarely does so at less than a height of thirty thousand feet or thereabouts, where the air is much thinner. It's unlikely that the 757 was traveling at anywhere near this speed that low to the ground. Half that would be more believeable.

Also...the Pentagon was built during WW2, and it was designed from the get go as a severely hardened structure. It has been reinforced since then. The Hoover Dam is probably weaker than the Pentagon. If an aircraft were to fly into the side of it, then there would not be much left of the airplane a second or so later. It was actually designed for this sort of eventuality.

Finally, there may be some confusion out there about the actual size of a Boeing 757. It is a MUCH smaller plane than a jumbo 747. It is actually a "narrow-body" airliner that was designed to fill the place of the medium sized 727 on domestic commuter routes. The 767 is a wider bodied version of pretty much the same aircraft.

I Should note that I still have some unanswered questions after watching the film. I'd really like to see the surveillance photos from the gas station and the hotel rooftop.

But...then again...I'd also still like to know who really shot JFK as well.

I'm not sure of the addess anymore, but have you ever seen the official explanation? It's just laughable. They are trying to say that the wings jack knifed or folded into the body of the plane. Well okay fair enough that would indicate that it stayed pretty well intact. Where is it? Where was is minutes after the 'crash'?

As they say in the 'movie' commercial airliners that crash leave a huge amount of debris. Someones got a really good ShopVac!! [img]graemlins/lmao.gif[/img]
