Planes Simply Do Not Vaporize - Why Didn’t They Show Us the Wreckage?

Ask questions, demand answers:

http://tvnewslies.org/blog/?p=355

As each day passes, more and more Americans are becoming aware of the startling evidence that clearly contradicts the official explanation of Sept.11th, 2001 offered by the Bush administration. In fact, as more and more evidence comes to light, incongruities in the official explanation become increasingly and undeniably apparent.
...
Many questions still remain about what actually took place at the Pentagon on September 11th 2001. That’s fine, because the goal of the 9/11 truth community is to raise these questions for further investigation. The problem arises when researchers feel that it is their responsibility to explain what happened at the Pentagon. It is NOT. Rather, it is their charge to highlight the doubts that have been legitimately raised regarding what exactly hit that building.

Some researchers claim that a 110,000 ton Boeing 757 hit the building, leaving only a 16 foot hole in the facade (prior to its collapse some 22 minutes after the initial impact.) Others claim that an A-3 Skywarrior fighter jet was the actual aircraft. Some say it was an unmanned Global Hawk armed with depleted uranium missiles, and still others claim that the Pentagon was hit by another type of military missile. We can argue each of these theories forever, and accomplish absolutely nothing.

We really have to put and end the internal dispute that is getting us nowhere and work together to bring information rather than more uncertainty to the public that is now just entering the 9/11 discussion. To that end, I am posing ONE pertinent question about the strike on the Pentagon: Why didn’t they show us the wreckage?

Planes do not simply vaporize. Never in the history of aviation disasters has an aircraft ever totally disintegrated. Even exploding space shuttles did not vanish into thin air. Therefore, it stands to reason that whatever hit the Pentagon had to leave some recoverable debris in its wake. Surely, there had be enough identifiable rubble remaining from a 110,000 ton aircraft to satisfy the skeptics? There is no way to convince me that the few scraps of metal and small engine parts, which according to some researchers are not from a 757, are proof of anything. at all. Neither am I convinced that the handful of uninformative photos that were released were not staged by the people who planned this event. An 110,000 tons aircraft has to leave more convincing evidence than what we have been offered. I defy anyone, anywhere to recreate a plane crash in which 110,000 tons of aircraft are reduced to a select few, barely identifiable parts.
...
In conclusion, I repeat that we have to stop trying to ANSWER the questions that have been raised. Instead, we have to collectively demand the answers. Even more constructively, we must focus on the essential questions that absolutely needs to be answered. In the case of the Pentagon, where is there any concrete evidence of the remains of a 110,000 ton Boeing 757 among the wreckage at the scene? Why didn’t they collect, examine and reveal the wreckage to the public? Why, why, why didn’t those in charge of finding out what happened at the Pentagon show us the wreckage? We think we know.

"a 16 foot hole in the facade"

Disinformation. Well, the plane DID leave a 16-foot entry hole -- and right below that, a 90-foot hole!

"Why didnÂ’t they show us the wreckage?"

Photographs of 757 debris have been shown.

"What would anyone reasonably aim for - a 29 acre target or the relatively miniscule one - on the ONLY reinforced section of the building designed to withstand a frontal attack?"

The author of this bullshit article first discredits himself, and THEN points to actual indication of complicity. Classic disinformation, though almost certainly unintentional. (ie. the author is a dupe)

*****

In the near future, the following will probably occur:

1. The terrorist elements in the US Government release some security camera footage showing a 757 in American Airlines colors and markings impacting the Pentagon.

2. Hard-core no-planers denounce the videos as forgeries. Many will proceed to further marginalize themselves by either claiming vast conspiracies that built replicas of the Pentagon in the desert just to produce the footage or by relying on bullshit sites such as 911studies.com to provide "proof" of photomanipulation. (Perhaps minor editing artifacts are inserted into the footage precisely to prompt such pointless speculation.)

3. Neocon bootlickers commence vicious attacks on a wide front on all 9/11 Truth, shouting that all tinfoil theories have now been refuted and that anyone who continues to believe in them is an unAmerican nutbar.

4. Many regular people who might have been persuaded on the broader issues become averse to any non-sanctioned ideas about 9/11, due to (2) and (3).

5. The terrorist conspirators giggle in glee at how well the Pentagon booby trap worked.

I admit that at this point it is strange, and not just outrageous, that they still have not released the footage: is it merely a ploy, or are they actually hiding something? However, they probably just like to see disinformation doing its work.

I recognize that there remains a very small chance that the plane that hit the Pentagon was not specifically AA Flight 77 with the tail number N644AA, and perhaps even a tiny chance that the model was not precisely a Boeing 757-233. This, however, manifestly does not mean that the Pentagon strike aspect should not be dropped or at least strongly deemphasized, and soon.

Additionally, we need to make clear that we want the tapes released solely for the sake of Truth, no matter what is in them, and not to prove/disprove any specific hypotheses. Practice this line for use in the aftermath of the release: "This material should have been released years ago! When is NIST going to release their computer model? And what about all the CVR and FDR data?"

On the bright side, releasing the Pentagon footage may be their last ace in the sleeve. On the darker side, once they deploy it, we're closer to the next attack...

This rude poster appernetly has no idea who I am, how much work I have done on the subject and did not read anything else on my 500 page website.

If you have something to point out in the way of correcting me say it to me. Don't pull a chicken shit move and insult me in the form of a comment on antother web site. I am seeking the truth. I don't know who "Able" is but I say this to you...talk to me if you have something to say about my writing. OK big shot?

Jesse,

You are here. I am talking to you. (Not that it matters, your article was posted on THIS site, and I wanted to inform the readers of THIS site about your errors.) I did point out specific severe mistakes, care to respond?

I did give you the benefit of doubt: I said you were a dupe, not a disinfo agent.

I can't remember what's on your site, but your 500 pages may not matter much if they contain errors as bad as "16 foot entry hole". Just look at what happened to Griffin: no-757 is 10% of his NPH book, yet only that part is getting attention in reviews.

Cheer up 9/11 conspiracists.

Cheer up 9/11 conspiracists. The answers to all your...ahem..."questions"... are right here from Perry Logan:

A child can tell you: the question of how a building fell down can be resolved ONLY by engineers. Not physicists, theologians, or guys who just think theyÂ’re the smartest guy in the world. It has to be engineers.

Absolutely NO ENGINEERS back up the conspiratorial fantasy about 9/11. On the contrary, they have utterly debunked any theories:

Give it up, conspiracy wonks. The experts have spoken--& they were not hired by the bad guys.

The WTC was not brought down by the most incompetent administration ever, in a tricky job that fooled everyone except a few megalomaniacal guys. International bankers did not contrive to close down Wall Street. There is not a secret takeover going on that only you can perceive.

If you “hate the government with all your heart,” you are a sick man. That’s probably why you resort to these delusional theories.

Able, sorry but I disagree

Able, sorry but I disagree with your analysis.

If you look at the pictures, there is a section of the building on the left side that is missing at the lower level.

However, with it being below 10ft I doubt this was from a 757 wing. Wheres the LARGE hole that the engine would have gouged into the ground before the building?

I don't think your analysis is correct due to the lack of consideration for these types of things.

I don't disagree that a plane hit the building but I am still not convinced that it was a 757. It would take 5 minutes to answer this question for sure and disprove any wrong theory by checking the traceable parts that may have been found there.

If you can explain how a wing can hit that low and not drag a 7ft engine in the ground, then I'm all ears.

The (left) engine would have

The (left) engine would have cleared even the cable spools (see the calculation at the aforementioned link), not to mention the ground. Of course, the engine(s) may have impacted the ground a few meters before the wall -- I don't think this would be evident at least in the photos I've seen.

Note that the very top level of the wings probably correspond to the top level of the sides of the wide entry hole.

(The right engine hit the generator trailer.)

Anyway, the entry hole was about 18 feet wide... on the second floor. On the first floor, it was about 90 feet wide. Gee, I wonder if that means that the wings of the 757 hit the first floor and the top part of the cabin/fuselage hit the second floor? Oh nooooo it was a truck bomb! A missile! A magical A-3 Skywarrior with 757 parts built into it! A spaceship!

Speaking about lack of

Speaking about lack of consideration, how about the inescapable fact that the conspirators would not have risked somebody, anybody, with a camera taking a good picture of anything else besides a 757 in AA colors? Or were there hundreds of operatives all around the vast Pentagon area ready to make photographers disappear?

" how about the inescapable fact that the conspirators would not have risked somebody, anybody, with a camera taking a good picture of anything else besides a 757 in AA colors? Or were there hundreds of operatives all around the vast Pentagon area ready to make photographers disappear?"

First of all, do we have people all over the country with cameras setup ready to catch something that may not happen?

Of course not! So by the time that someone realized what was happening, the crash would be over. That's why in only MINUTES the FBI was at all the places with mounted cameras and were confiscating the film.

Now how is it that they could be at all these places within minutes to claim the film, unless they were waiting for the event?

At trials, its my understanding, there are credentialed people on both sides and the juries tend to see it as a "wash."

Theres too much coincidental weirdness (Only steel structures to collapse from fire and all 3 on same day plus other oddities about the collapses; 2 more planes that also disintegrate and pretty much vanish, one into a building and one into the earth; the NORAD lack of response, etc.). Too much and then all we've had is baldfaced lying since then about "mobile Weapon labs" and "mushroom clouds" and Saddam Hussein sending "drone" aircraft over American cities.

Loads and loads of shameless lying and our mainstream media pretty much went along with all of that, too. It wasn't until Bush's poll numbers started dropping that Bush's credibility started to be questioned by the mainstream media and thats just over the last few months. HOw many times did they repeat the crap about Bush's being a "straightshooter," all the while the lies were piling up?

Abel,
These conspirators were and are being protected by the full force and power of the US government. When and if this thing, this demand for the truth and real investigation, gathers steam, as I believe it will, is when we'll all have reason to be scared of what these conspirators might do to protect themselves.

But, talk about what "conspirators" wouldn't risk! The official version has 4 teams of Arab hijackers out on the same day and if even one of them got taken in for questioning and spilled the beans, the other 18 would all have stuck out like sore thumbs. Groups of Arab men in First Class.

Counting on not a *single* inopportune photograph is much riskier that placing *some* trust in the patsies. Note that if it wasn't a 757 in AA colors the mounted camera operators would have had to have been silenced too (Sheraton employees and possibly VDOT employees).

This was a well-planned operation, no-757 is far too sloppy.

"Now how is it that they could be at all these places within minutes to claim the film, unless they were waiting for the event?"

Proof of foreknowledge, not of 'no-plane'. (Well either that or it's a really weird protocol to follow.) Probable motivation: To obfuscate reality so that those who research the events will have a hard time doing so.

One thing that bothers me are the light posts. They neatly lay down without marking up the ground. Something hits them at 500MPH and they just lay over, don't mark up the lawn and hardly look like they were even touched.

Close-range air defenses in

Close-range air defenses in action have never been entirely ruled out, this could explain some witness accounts (cordite smell) as well as possible pre-impact damage to the plane. (This may have been a legitimate reason not to release the tapes immediately, but given all the speculation it isn't anymore.)

Regarding the security videos, one more possibility: Perhaps the footage includes disturbing scenes from inside the Pentagon, to show that the reason for withholding all of them was respect for the victims -- not true considering all the outdoors footage available.

All this NIST rubbish about

All this NIST rubbish about 200 scientists. Some questions about NIST:

(1)DID 200 scientists put their name to the final report? Or was the work divided up between them on specific features (such as how long it takes a seat to catch fire!).

(2)What control over the final report did the 200 have? (Not much is my bet).

(3)The NIST report ran a computer simulation of the fire effects of a plane impact on the WTC. They used the variables that gave them the outcome they wanted leading to the point of collapse.

THEN....THEY STOPPED ANALYSING!!

(4)That's right, they DIDN'T look at ALL the collapse: the squibs, the energy requirements for the dust cloud, the pulverisations, the melting, glowing metal found weeks later in the basement area etc.

(5) What scientific credibility are we to give to NIST when it will scrupulously study airline seats catching fire (and even tell us of their cloth composition)but won't tell us about the squibs, explosions or glowing hot remains? (Ans: none)

(6) Insurance companies and other have been calling for a video simulation of the entire impact-collapse process (now standard practice for large fires or accidents). NIST has refused. Why? For the obvious reasons: (a) they haven't done a full analysis, and (b) what they have done doesn't stand up.

(7) Why aren't 200 scientists ashamed to have their name associated with the NIST report when it is incomplete in this way? Why aren't they protesting? Because they have never had responsibility for the overall report, only for specific, requested analysis.

Stephen Jones has specific, real scientific issues that he has properly identified in his published articles. Critics should address those concerns before screaming support for a NIST report that stopped examining just when the questions got really interesting.

Hate to say it "anonymous", but my husband is a fully qualified Civil and Structural Engineer since 1989, and he say "there is ZERO chance, not even in a million years, can bulidings collapse the way they did on 911"

After recently completing a

After recently completing a PhD in engineering at UMIST, UK, I can say that there are several engineering lecturers and students currently looking at the collapse of the WTC 1,2 & 7, with the aim of releasing a paper later in the year.
Our suspicions were first raised several months ago after looking at the official explanation offered up by the US Gov., then running the basic initial analysis tests, according to the data provided in the official report.
To simply say that not one engineer questions the collapse of the WTC would be wildly inaccurate, especially as there seems to be more doubt than belief amongst both my peers and senuiors.

Re: anonymous (above),

as mentioned above, but for some reason overlooked by yourself, the results of our research will be out later in the year. At which time I shall provide you with a copy of our findings.

Also, if you are to read my comments again, you will discover that I never made any statements regarding the outcome of said studies, merely mentioning that as a group of engineering students and professors, we are a little dubious of the official explanation.
Putting your money where your mouth is, is not a particularly independent way of basis a study - we are not seeking to find proof for preconceived theories (a fuzzy scientific appraoch method), simply interested in finding out exactly how and why incidents occured in the manner that they did.

He ascribes BIZARRE motives for explaining the supposedly "manipulated" images, in a way that contradicts reality ("they wanted a photo of firefighters in action so they kept the Pentagon burning for three days").

I've been into digital photography and image manipulation (mostly in photoshop) for around 10 years, and I was positive at least half of his arguements were just misunderstandings of depth of field and perspective when i looked through the site 2 weeks ago..

I think this page alone

I think this page alone shows that White cannot be trusted:

(There is only one tower in the picture. The South Tower has already collapsed.)

Able, you can find my email link on my WTC 7 blog:

"the results of our research

"the results of our research will be out later in the year."

You can address the links provided already if you so choose.

"Putting your money where your mouth is, is not a particularly independent way of basis a study - we are not seeking to find proof for preconceived theories (a fuzzy scientific appraoch method), simply interested in finding out exactly how and why incidents occured in the manner that they did."

I agree - which is why those here should not be asserting something for which they have provided no evidence - explosive demolitions and that the towers could not have fallen as the NIST studies demonstrate.

You also may note that the most aggregious unscientific behavior is that by Scholars for 9/11 Truth that asserts without yet providing any evidence:

"Physics research establishes that only controlled demolitions are consistent with the near-gravity speed of fall and virtually symmetrical collapse of all three of the WTC buildings."

I would appreciate it if you would join other structural engineers and PhDs in demanding that SF9/11T either provide the evidence, modify the statement toi delete the word "only", or retract the statement immediately.

In the meantime, none of the others have taken up my challenge.

"Scholars for 9/11 Truth

"Scholars for 9/11 Truth that asserts without yet providing any evidence..."

Au contraire, they provide a lot of arguments for their claims. They are actually examining the "global collapse" itself, which NIST self-admittedly did not do.

As regards WTC-7, the NIST lead investigator had recently this to say in a New York Magazine interview:

"NIST did have 'some preliminary hypotheses' on 7 WTC, Dr. Sunder said. 'We are studying the horizontal movement east to west, internal to the structure, on the fifth to seventh floors.' Then Dr. Sunder paused. 'But truthfully, I don't really know. We've had trouble getting a handle on Building No. 7.' "

No wonder, as all the evidence had been destroyed before their "investigation" even began. As I've implied before, it is ridiculous to even use the term "investigation" in this context. How blind can a person be not to see *any* problem here?

People, please! The

People, please! The "no-757-hit-the-Pentagon" claim is the weakest argument in the 9/11 Truth portfolio, BY FAR. Let's stick to what we DO know, not what we don't. Hundreds of eyewitnesses said they heard explosions at the WTC. Similarly, hundreds of eyewitnesses said they saw a 757 slam into the Pentagon. Some were DOD personnel, many were not. You cannot trust the claims of one group of eyewitnesses and then completely discount the other group's claims when it doesn't suit your purposes. That kind of practice hits right at the very heart of your- OUR- credibility.

Hehehe! Very funny.

But what about the non-investigation of WTC-7, which is only the third-worst building disaster in the world?

"In the meantime, none of the others have taken up my challenge."

No-one owes you an explanation anonymous. (You don't even have the guts to use your name.) And there's a more important reason: I DON"T OWE YOU AN EXPLANATION BECAUSE YOU ARE JUST NOT IMPORTANT ENOUGH. That's right. You come on this blog and challenge people to prove to you while you steadfastly ignore the challenges of others here. So who cares about you? Not me, that's for sure.

You believe in accountability do you?

Then you won't mind joing Scholars for 911 Truth in calling for all evidence to be made available to a new inquiry?

What? That's a problem for you?

Oh, I forgot, we're supposed to meet YOUR standards. Frankly, who cares.

But, if you are serious about a reasonable exchange of ideas then start explaining why it is the NIST inquiry STOPPED right at the point when the buildings started falling.

Don't want to do that? Then you need to stop asking other people to take you seriously.
