Let me give you a clue why missile rather than plane.
Check out (do your own research) the speed of the planes approaching impact |

This no plane theory all seems to stem from the pentagon missile theory, which has actually been promoted by the US government. |
9/11 as an operation HAD to succeed. To have planes full of passengers and hijackers would have introduced too many unknowns.
Yes, maybe empty remote controlled planes WERE used, but the damage as described by Rick Rajter (materials science graduate) and others does not seem fully consistent with this. (This is discussion of evidence).
Missiles would've (I think) been more precisely targetable than a plane. The huge impact of a real plane may have been too much of a risk for damaging the demolition charge sequence. (This is speculation).
If someone in the military had "rebelled" and decided to shoot down the planes, then using the missiles would reduce the risk of them being shot down. (If the targets hadn't been hit, what would they have done that day?)
Maybe WTC 7 was supposed to have been hit too, but something went wrong? Who knows. _________________ Andrew

I don't have the time or the inclantion to waste time looking at this particular area and would rather spend it trying to get the truth out by using verfiable evidence.

That's okay, Andy, I don't want to be part of your phony half truth movement that only parrot what the herd around them say, I've been spouting of this since day 1, i can find you forum posts from December 2001 where I'm questioning the hoax, I get paid to watch the news and have watched the their lies and the 911investigaters evolve and unfold upclose on a daily basis. I suggest you apologise for your comments against me. I would like to know who you actually speak for, the whole London posse or just the little movement that dances about in your tiny mind? I look forward to you spouting that nonsense to my face when I'm down in London next week. You can't face the truth truthseeker. |

Are you now suggesting that because someone might not believe in no-plane theory, then the only explanation is that the hijackers were real.
No!
The hijackers were just patsies. Atta probably never even boarded the plane (there is the problem over his luggage held back after all). The plane was therefore probably some military guided aircraft and very possibly contained no passengers at all. |

Ally,
That is preciseley my point. Your understanding of the events are far greater then most as you have been researching this for such a long time. I have said that I have not had time to look into this area yet and I don't dismiss it, I just think that it will scare sceptics. It's hard enough convincing people the towers were CD, even with building 7. Throwing in another big change in thought from their original view may just be a bit much and they can convince themselves were conspiracy nutters and move on.
I'm not going to be spouting nonsense at anyone next week. Ally, I apologise if any offence was taken and I will gladly sit down with you and listen to your thoughts on the no plane theory, like I said I'm open minded on this. All my views here are my own personal opinion and you may disagree, with them, which is fine, people have differing opinions. See you next week fella _________________ "We will have to repent in this generation not merely for the vitriolic words and actions of the bad people, but for the appalling silence of the good people.” Martin Luther King |

Yes, these are good questions, which I cannot answer - there may be others who have researched more deeply. On its own the evidence wouldn't be all that compelling, perhaps (certainly the individual points that I have made re Edna would be hard to debate without more information). ALl this evidence and more would be thrown out of court - as it already has (including the freefall evidence), so this doesn't particularly add any weight to your argument, in my opinion.
I still maintain that taken with the other evidence, the case for missile rather than plane impact becomes more compelling the more evidence you consider (and the possible rationale behind the idea too, which I have suggested in other posts.)
But absolutely, you are entitled to your view on this, as am I and other posters here. Maybe we will get to know the correct answer sometime. _________________ Andrew

I truely hope we do get to find out. That's what we are here to do - expose the truth.
I guess my problem with the no-plane (or no 7x7's) stuff is that it is the more complicated answer to the issue of what hit the twin towers. The simple answer is that aircraft hit. This would account for each plane shaped hole, the explosions, eye witness accounts and video evidence. No plane theory relies on their being pin point timing of explosives with CGI/hologram, accurate positioning of explosives to give the hole shapes (including to bend the facade inwards), the involvement of CNN (or some other production team) in the plot and therefore the collusion by many more people (and potential whistleblowers) who must be kept quiet. Occam's Razor suggests therefore that the simpler explanation is the one more likely to happen - and I agree.
What also gets me is that the no-planers believe it OK to call anyone who disagrees with them a shill. Very annoying.
I would rather see this story dropped from these forums as it serves only to muddy the whole issue. It is all speculation and does this cause no good whatsoever. |

Andrew,
If you actually read my post you'll see I accused no-one of being loopy, nor did I want to discuss the moon hoax conspiracy theory, and in fact clicking on the link I provided brings a valuable piece of evidence to the argument. One that goes some way to answering some of the 'evidence' supporting the 'no planes' theory. If you saw that aircraft at a distance, moving at 400mph+ (and not at about 120mph as in the picture) and manouvering fairly sharply, are you really going to see the already not too prominent portholes?
In fact I was broadly speaking supporting your campaign, by suggesting that theories like this do the campaign a disservice (a sentiment echoed by other posters above). Reactions like yours to my post and theories like no planes are certain to discourage people like me who are undecided, and probably will lead people to lump this campaign in with all the other conspiracy theories (like the moon landing theory).

P.S. I noticed in the posts above insults such as 'shill', 'troll' and 'idiot' being bandied about, yet I am threatened with being shunted out of this thread for not calling anyone anything (because as you rightly point out that would be childish) |

I have been reluctant to join in the debate on no-planes at the wtc because I am told by many that it is divisive - and so it is. But when I saw these pictures I felt sure there must be a kernel of truth in what Killtown, Nico Haupt and others have been saying. Something does not add up.
The nose cone plane that hit the South Tower appeared to pass right through the central core ( itself almost an incredible fact) before being ejected the other side, as shown in these stills from a video shown live on TV.
http://nineeleven2001.t35.com/images/newyork-4.html
You would expect to find a hole on the east side , but there is none.
http://killtown.911review.org/images/wtc-gallery/nist1-5fd/6-30_wtc2-n orth-face-exit.jpg
We must assume that one of the two images has been faked.
I am no saying that no plane hit , but that it was probably not a 767 and that the TV footage looks impossible. |

To be fair, only a few people are guilty of this and I find it annoying too. On another board, I was accused of working for Arabs. My brother once compared my mentality to that of the Yorkshire Ripper. I am generally flattered and encouraged by such remarks as they usually indicate I am "onto something"

But this would be a restriction on freedom of speech, analytical thought and expression - the evidence being discussed is of huge relevance to 9/11 Truth (for the possible reasons I mentioned on another post). You are perfectly free to start your own forum or Yahoo group, invite people here onto it and moderate it yourself to remove "No 7x7's" discussion if you feel the issue is already settled.
The only moderation we try to do here is shift OCT supporters' posts to critics corner, of course. _________________ Andrew

In your opinion, yes. If people read posts in isolation, they may agree with your conclusion. I maintain that if they read more they will come away with a different impression. I use the term "conspiracy theory" as little as possible as this is a psychologically loaded label. Provided debate stays focused on evidence, relevant to 9/11 (which "no 7x7's" is), I think debate should be vigorous and detailed, for those who wish to partake.
As I have also said before there are probably a few readers or posters who would have laughed a few years ago at those who said WTC 1 & 2 were demolished with explosives, but once they sat and analysed the evidence, they realised it was true. This is currently my feeling of where we are with "No 7x7's".
The debating of this issue on this and another thread has caused me to think more deeply about the evidence and for me personally this has been quite instructive, so I don't feel I have personally wasted my time.

Well, I may have called "out of turn", but from reading your other posts I couldn't really decide what your true position was on 9/11 Truth.
People on both sides have been called a "Shill" and a disinfo artist. I think you'll find this from both of the sides of the "No 7x7's" issue. It is interesting to note that more prominent figures in the 9/11 Truth Campaign have been split on this issue just before the 5th anniversary. How convenient.
I would agree insults are unhelpful - I try not to use them myself. I also try not to belittle anyone's arguments and will listen to them, providing they can describe evidence in sufficient detail to make me think they are not taking the mickey. When several prominent researchers are saying the same type of thing, I then think it really is worth looking into. _________________ Andrew

It's ironic that this subject which many posters say we should stop talking about is getting a lot of traffic.
Can James please explain (from Ally's earlier post) how the left wing had gone into the building without causing any damage or explosion.
Can he also explain from the link on my earlier post how the on the spot journalist did not hear (nor did his micophone pick up) the sound of the jet (which would have been deafening and why did he not see the jet
If James cannot explain then maybe somebody else can
If nobody answers then I must be right |

I have resisted this topic simply because I do not consider myself anywhere near up to speed on all of the angles. Pardon the pun. I was intending to "wait and see" before I said anything.
One of the most common responses I have got when mentioning the planes that crashed into the buildings is that they looked weird.
I remember first seeing the images down the pub I still recall how people reacted to those planes going into the buildings. They didn't look real. They just went straight in. Like a hot knife through butter.
I would ask everyone to consider how they perceived those images back then. My gut reaction was they didn't look real. They still don't look real to me.
I suspect a lot of people agree on this if they were honest.
But what did we know? I have no idea what a plane should look like when it crashes into a skyscraper. So I guess I just buried those thoughts and moved onto pods and flashes and stuff.
Now I'm here.
I have read some of the no plane arguments but I admit to being put off initially by the webfairy holograms and orbs.
I admit that it was too much even for my deeply conspiratorial mind.
When I came across Marcus Icke's work with the Flight Simulator software I became very interested again.
Also, the still pictures seem to show anomalies that I do not understand. Wings one minute, no wings the next etc. Ditto tail fins.
I dismissed these as probable video distortion from compression techniques. Also, I had no idea about the sources of these frames, so they could all be disinfo.
I have since understood more about the context of the Naudet film which I never questioned before simply because this was among the primary "evidence" that brought me into this in the first place. I know differently now.
I have no problem at all with video mixing or CGI technology. I understand what can be achieved with these methods.
Equally the insertion of a data stream into a live camera feed is entirely possible and I have yet to see a reason why the studio based pundits need to be involved in this, after all they would be watching the composite video themselves.
I do have a problem with the "quality" of the images of both planes.
I have never been able to understand why they are so poor, especially as the Naudet cameras would have been of sufficient quality for "film makers" to use and produce an acceptable film.
We are also led to believe that a WESCAM device may have been used, for the second hit. From what I have read WESCAM cameras are high quality gyro-stabilised cameras with multi chromatic optics (infra red etc), capable of being integrated into other systems.
I fail to see why WESCAM is a key to this at all. Any digital data stream can be mixed with another, regardless of the camera system used to generate one of those streams.
WESCAM's integration capabilities may make it technologically easier to do but the WESCAM "clue", if it is to be interpreted as Nico Haupt seems to suggest may well be a red herring.
I see no need to mix the real "background" shots and any CGI data on board a helicopter. Indeed this may require further human implication.
Although I remain confused as to why the WESCAM clue would be shown to a doubting world deliberately.
I am not an expert, but technically, you could mix any road runner CGI into your digital wedding video very easily, in real time if you like, and show this composite to the guests outside the church. That's not a problem.
I do have questions about synchronisation with a high speed missile though.
I have yet to find out about cruise missile speeds, but would guess that they would be very difficult if not impossible to see with the naked eye from up close at least.
I remember reading/hearing about a US Carrier being stationed off the East Coast at the time, purportedly in response to the attacks as I recall.
Anyway, how would we go about triggering a CGI data feed into a background data stream just at the right time to cover for a missile ?
Accepting that this would have been rehearsed to the finest of details the required effect would absolutely dictate an automatic trigger to begin the mixing sequence.
There is no way to achieve real time mixing of a "CGI data plane" to cover for an incoming missile by pressing a button. No way.
I'm not saying that the mixing in itself is impossible just that it couldn't be triggered "by hand" or manually as it were.
It would require an electronic trigger and that would have to be very accurately and automatically synchronised at the moment the incoming missile come into the camera's field of view.
Even with a deliberate delay before the composite video is fed into the studios, this would still present difficulties. No time for checking etc.
Having considered some of these things for some time I asked myself this question:
If we are thinking about no planes for a minute, then why do we need to have a missile too ?
Indeed, having a missile creates massive problems if you are trying to cover it's flight with a CGI as I have described.
If you have no missile all you need to do is combine your prepared images of the flight of some distant and obscure looking plane into the camera feed to the studio.
As soon as you think the time is right, press the button and kaboom, your pre planted fuel bomb explodes in the skyscraper.
Given that we all seem to accept CD which requires meticulous planning and positioning of explosives it's certainly possible that the roadrunner cut outs could have been achieved prior to the event.
This of course requires that no real plane evidence exists, any eyewitness evidence to planes needs to be disproved and all "videos" of the incoming planes are fake. _________________ The Medium is the Massage - Marshall McLuhan.

I've watched a couple dozen different videos of the plane hitting WTC2. There is no way these were all faked. In some of them, you can see the reflection of the fireball on adjacent buildings. You can see expected trajectories of the debris on all of them. The shot's of the damage on the tower is consistent with where the plane hit. A half a dozen of the videos are familiar to me as live footage on THE day of the tragedy, therefore, they would have to have been faked BEFORE 911 occurred. The implications and logistics of that are not tenable. It's possible but unlikely that it's not a 7x7, but it most definitely was a plane.
The 'no plane' theory is ridiculous. It's a waste of time and it sullies by association the REAL evidence of a 911 conspiracy. I don't know why you continue to push this pet theory of yours but it's not a help. If you want to keep researching this angle, go ahead, but please don't bother us again until you have something of substance. I won't be wasting my time with this drivel any longer. _________________ Stick to what you KNOW. All else is disinformation, intended or not. |

I would guess most people agree as has already been said on these threads that the CD evidence is easier to discuss with people for practical reasons.
I have already posted other points as to why "no 7x7's" is important. In my view, it also fits right in with David Ray Griffins latest analysis which suggests the NORAD tapes were faked.

I forgot to mention this thought.
One of the problems I have always struggled to answer is this:
Using aircraft would present an unacceptable level of risk.
We all agree on CD.
Implicit within that understanding there must also be the following reasoning about Controlled Demolition.
The principle requirement is for CD to work properly, exactly as planned.
You could not risk a half baked CD with errors.
CD had to work not only to achieve the destruction but to absolutely gurantee that everything that did or did not occur in those buildings would be turned into dust.
As I have already said, I see no need to use missiles at all.
If I was planning this operation, using aircraft, piloted or not, I think there is a high possibility that they would present an unacceptable level of risk regarding exact impact levels, attitudes and angles, explosive effect on the building etc.
Therefore I have never understood how, in the aftermath of an aircraft impact, anyone could absolutely guarantee that the uncontrolled and unpredictable result would not compromise the pre-planted CD charges in any significant way. _________________ The Medium is the Massage - Marshall McLuhan. |

If you want to keep researching this angle, go ahead, but please don't bother us again until you have something of substance. I won't be wasting my time with this drivel any longer.

Please explain why a reflection of the fireball on an adjacent building proves there was a plane.
You also imply that it is not possible to superimpose an image of an aircraft into a real time television feed and that it would have to have been faked prior to 911 - you obviously have not done your homework on this subject because it is possible.

Its interesting
Reading through this thread reminds me of another situation i came across earlier today...a friend of mine has run into hot water on the Chomsky forum trying to discuss Webster tarpley and the "Left gatekeeper" hypothesis
http://chomskytorrents.org/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=1258
In many ways the pasions on this "Planes vs No Planes" debate feels like the same kind of thought patterns
You see, I reckon its simple enough to picture Prof chomsky chewing on it at his desk. He knows about false flag operations (how can he not?). He probably knows that the gulf of tomkin never happened, but he saw vietnam unfold in front of his eyes
Maybe he even knows that the moon landing is not what it seems...but hes got this idea that these truths are too far from the norm, and his focus is nudging things along from where they are, not dreams of where they could be...should he then declare 911 to be an inside job? Or does he do more good staying out of that and exposing the military industrial complex's agenda in what follows?
Seems to me that there is an interesting conjecture on this No Planes theory...but in the same way that Chomsky thought it would "damage the left" to call 911 an inside job, so theres us truthers who consider declaring "No Planes on 911" would "damage the truth campaign"
And you know what?
Both POV's were right for the situation at the time, and I agree with them
(Or at least dont blame Chomsky for his pragmatism)
Not that I think "No planes" shouldnt be discussed: far from it, of course it should: everything should be discussed, or freedom of expression is just a sham
But "No Planes" is going to have to find something one heck of a lot more concrete before it shifts to being my most likely balance of probability, and theres no way Im going to say "there were no planes on 911 you know" to anyone I have discussions with outside the internet unless that situation changes dramatically _________________ Free your Self and Free the World |

The "no-planes" theory has to exclude all the eye witnesses in Manhattan.
Witnesses are seen on the Naudet documentary saying they saw planes hitting the towers!

I suppose I shouldn't say "no planes" theory shouldn't be discussed, that' not really what I mean. Sure, everything reasonable should be looked at, but there also should be a heirarchy of theories. i.e. the theories of CD and no plane at the pentagon actually have merit b/c they have fairly telling evidence that support them, and therefore should be discussed as serious theories. The no planes theory OTOH has some very significant implications which are severely challenged by the evidence (e.g. myriad tapes, eyewitness accounts, physical evidence, etc.). This is a nicer way of saying, " It doesn't make sense!". If it doesn't make sense, discussions of it should more correctly be framed in the context of, "what if...." as sort of a mental/imaginative exercise.
TRUTH, there is a difference between possible and probable. Yes, it is technically possible for the conspirators to have faked all the tapes I viewed including faking them in real time into live feeds. It's even possible they dubbed them as well to include the voices of 'eyewitnesses'. It's possible they smuggled the jet engine and other plane parts onto the streets of NY in the confusion. It's possible that these masters of CGI were inexplicably unavailable to make the same sort of fake tapes for the pentagon plane. It's possible that no private videos ever made it onto the internet, despite the potential hundreds of amatuer cameramen in NY who, one would imagine, would already have been taping WTC1 burning. You see where I'm going here? It is all incredibly improbable. Why don't you do your homework by investigating til you find some REAL evidence before you come here and post unprovable nonsense that does nothing but damage the credibility of us all.
The problem with the truth movement and why it will always have difficulty getting into the mainstream, is that it treat itself as if it's a writer's workshop instead of a serious scientific analysis of the evidence. This allows evert crackpot theory to have it's say, and given an equivalent weight to theories that actually have merit and have had at least some scientific analysis brought bear on them. This IS damaging to the serious, plausible theories. The other problem with the movement is that it tends to be insular, so that the way in which these crackpot views are seen by mainstream people isn't recognized or understood. If your goal for this blog is to have a place where people can trade entertaining ideas but not really have much real world affect, then continue to allow cranks, like TRUTH, to have his say. But if your goal is to honestly expose what really happened with 911, allowing marginal theories the same merit as scientifically tested theories is a huge mistake. _________________ Stick to what you KNOW.

Just for the record I am schizophrenic about no planes ok. So I am in no way endorsing the idea but at least I have looked at some of the arguments.

MiniMauve,
The video footage of the plane strikes on the two towers were faked - this has been proved.
Largely aluminium planes would not cut through steel and concrete buildings like a knife through butter - parts would fall off; the planes would decelerate etc etc.
I have always respected Gerard Holmgren's analyses. I will quote an article by him from http://www.911closeup.com/ below - he writes better than I can (some bold added for emphasis by me):
Quote: | Why they didn't use planes
Sometimes people ask me "why would they use missiles or whatever and run the risk of being caught out ? If they're going to sell a story about planes, why not make it as convincing as possible and use real planes" ?
It's a silly question, because in the face of direct visual and forensic proof that they didn't use planes (mostly supported by what little witness evidence we have), speculations about their thinking and planning are meaningless.
Nevertheless, since we live in extremely silly times, I'm going to address this question on its own terms.
Put yourself in the position of the perps. You have to think through what could go wrong in each possible scenario and then decide which scenario poses the smallest risk.
You want to sell a story about hijacked planes.
At the first level of decision making, you have two choices.
1) Actually use planes.
2) Use missiles or whatever the blobs 11 thing is, and convince people that they were planes.
Lets first look at the second scenario. You have the media on your side to tell the story. What could go wrong?
1) Witnesses might see that they were not planes and report it.
Well this has actually happened, but it seems that nobody takes any notice. The myth of "thousands of witnesses" to a big plane strike keeps getting trotted out on the basis of a circular assumption. "Because big jets were there, then people must have seen them - because people saw them, that proves they were there."
Clearly the perps thought about how to minimize the problem of contrary witness reports, and came up with a simple but effective plan.
This problem is easy to minimize. The first strike happens, and because the object is small and fast and unexpected, no-one is too sure what it is, or whether they saw it correctly. A few witness reports go to air reporting missiles or small planes or no craft at all, but there is only an 18 minute window for this to occur before the whole world sees a big jet live on TV - using commercially available real time animation technology. This distracts the media from interviewing many witnesses to the second strike, because everyone is fixated on the video replay. Those few witnesses who might get a moment with the media, then lack confidence in what they saw, because once again, the object was small, fast and unexpected. Seeing the TV replay - which was instantly available - would make most people think that they just didn't see it properly. The few who remain unshakable in their belief that it was not a large plane are easily shouted down and drowned out by the endless replays. In addition the airlines release a statement saying that they've lost two big jets and any witness dissent is *instantly* - the moment the second strike happens - marginalized almost to the point of oblivion.
This is not speculation. Read through the transcripts of broadcasts as they unfolded between about 8.47 and 9.30 and you will see that this is *exactly* what happened. From the moment the second strike occurred, anyone who tried to say that it was not a large jet immediately had a TV replay shoved in their face.
What little witness evidence was gathered in the brief time available between the two strikes was not enough to do any real damage, and everything after that was corrupted by everybody having TV replays of the second jet shoved in their face as soon as they opened their mouths.
In that brief period between the two strikes, there was only one witness who said a large jet - and that just happened to be the vice prez of CNN, which of course is a major player in the scam - just as pivotal as the govt.
So we can see that the problem of contrary witnesses, while a minor inconvenience is easily overcome with some good planning.
Again, this is not speculation. The successful execution of this plan has been tested ion the real world - and it works. The scenario I have outlined exactly fits with the documented record of the events.
Once the sheeple factor sets in, everyone is chanting "what about the people who saw it ? " without ever bothering to check what those people actually did report. And if they do check, the numbers of reports are not high enough to inflict major damage on the official story. What little there is overwhelmingly supports something other than a big jet, but there wasn't enough time to gather enough numbers for this to be a significant evidence factor. And as for the ordinary person on the street - most of them would be easily convinced that they just didn't see it properly. Some might have lingering doubts or suspicions, but would be quickly silenced by ridicule and denial from the overwhelming pressure of the TV footage, and the whole world trying to convince them that they just didn't see it properly. Most would eventually come to believe that themselves.
So - that problem is easily dealt with. No cover story solves everything, and doubtless there are still some mutterings of doubt and suspicion amongst some people who were there, but it isn't enough to cause a serious problem.
Now to the other problem.
Someone might look at the videos and see what's really there. Which is exactly what Rosalee has done. And people just go into mind controlled denial. The alternative media is flooded with endless debunkers. The perps knew our collective psychology well. They certainly wouldn't be happy with the groundswell of awareness which Rosalee has kick-started, but it looks very manageable compared to the problems I'm about to outline with the strategy of using real jets.
Again, this is not speculation. The way that both of these problems have been handled has been tested in the real world, fits exactly with the documented record, and the fact that I am even needing to write this, 3 years after Rosalee first busted the video evidence, is testimony to how wisely the perps judged the choice of strategy.
Now lets look at the other choice - using real jets.
This immediately splits into two sub-choices 1) Pilot them with suicide pilots 2) Remote control them.
The problem with the first choice is obvious and I think most people on this list have already accepted the absurdity and the monstrous difficulties of such a scenario, so I won't go into them here.
Remote control.
Before addressing the problems with that, the scenario splits into more -sub-choices.
1) Hijack a real flight with real passengers aboard. 2) Launch a plane from somewhere else and pass it off as a real flight.
Basically, the choices here split into the option of crashing a plane with passengers aboard or with no passengers aboard. Both possibilities create potentially insurmountable problems in the cover up - and a reduced likelihood of the crash being successfully targeted to begin with.
Let's look at the latter problem. While it's certainly feasible to remote control a large jet into the towers, it's a high precision targeting job for an aircraft with very limited maneuverability. There's a significant risk that the plane won't hit its target properly. That it will hit some other building, just clip its wing on the tower and crash into the streets or cause a cascade of damage on other non targeted buildings, miss altogether and finish up in the Hudson, still reasonably intact - all kinds of risks.
Whatever the calculated likelyhood of a successfully targeted crash, it would have to be significantly lower than that of a missile or blobs- thing, which is specifically engineered for such precision strikes.
Even the smallest increase in risk of the target not being hit properly would be completely unacceptable, given the easily manageable nature of any problems associated with the alternative scenario.
And missing the target is only the beginning of the problem. What about the aftermath ? Once it misses the target, there's a significant risk that the aircraft may crash in such a manner that it's reasonably intact. Rescue workers and emergency services who are completely innocent of the scam, and ordinary people wanting to help out are going to reach the wreckage before any perpsters, given that where it crashed couldn't be foreseen.
And what are they going to find ? Two choices. A plane with no -one in it. How are the perps going to explain that, huh ? Or a plane with passengers. This raises even more problems. Using a plane with passengers creates two more sub-choices.
1) Hope that all the passengers get killed in the crash, so there's no survivors to talk or hope that the perps can get to them first and knock them off before they do talk.
2) Kill them before the crash with a timed release of gas into the aircon system. Which of course leaves more forensic evidence to cover up, when the bodies are examined. Imagine the massive operation needed to get enough perps swarming over the wreckage quickly enough to control what the media,innocent rescue workers or survivors would start blabbing before the spin sets in. Far worse than anything a few witnesses could say in the 18 minutes between the two tower strikes.
These problems are not limited to the scenario of the aircraft not crashing as they were meant to. If the planes were successfully crashed into the towers, its still possible - although not very likely - that there could be survivors. Nevertheless, even assuming that everyone was killed, real crashes with real people leave real bodies, they don't just vapourize like in the S11 cartoon. So you have hundreds of retrievable bodies to worry about. If they were killed with gas prior to the crash, then you have the same forensic cover up nightmare as in the scenario where the plane misses its target.
And if you avoid this problem by hoping that everyone is killed in the crash, you face the horrible risk that there will be dozens of survivors to try to shut up - unlikely if the plane hits the target properly - but you don't know that for sure.
In addition, real planes leave real wreckage - unlike the S11 cartoon - which means real flight recorder boxes to be found and more stuff to hush up, involving more innocent officials to pressure. Of course, enormous pressure can be brought to bear, but the problem is how much would spill out before the spin gets into action. All of this is far worse than what a few witnesses could say in the 18 minutes between the strikes, and what a marginalized researcher can post on her website, hoping that people take notice.
As you can see, the scenario of using real planes creates a logistical nightmare compared to the piddling problem of a few witnesses to the craft, and easily marginalized conspiracy nuts analyzing video - easily suppressed by a compliant media.
In committing a crime, the idea is to leave as little mess as possible, because every bit of mess is a potential clue. Even in the event of a successfully targeted crash, real aircraft, scattering wreckage and bodies everywhere creates an enormous amount of mess to cover up compared to the relatively neat problem of a few witnesses and a few conspiracy nuts trying to tell people what the video shows.
The problems of the real plane scenario are enormously compounded by the possibility of a botched crash, which itself is a significantly increased risk when using big lumbering jets not specifically designed for that task as opposed to precision weaponry which is far more reliable. In the unlikely event of a missile going off course, there would be far less mess to leave clues, and an easier co-opting into a plan B story - like terrorists stealing missiles and firing them at NY.
This explanation should hopefully put an end once and for all to the plane hugging fantasy - but then, these are very silly times in which we live. |
Rosalee is Rosalee Grable (the Web fairy http://www.thewebfairy.com/) - but I am sure that you knew that.
To sum up then I think you are wrong in what you have written above. It is our duty (as truthseekers) to seek out the truth and promulgate that truth to the wider public; not some sanitised version thereof. It is clear that real planes were not used for the 911 hits on the WTC.

Almost five years after the event and you folks haven't yet decided whether anything did actually collide with the towers. And between those of you who are persuaded that the collisions weren't hoaxed, there's no consensus over whether it was planes (passenger airliners/substitute, piloted/autopilot) or missiles. Is it any wonder that you "look like nutters" (as Bufordt06 puts it) and your incoherent theories sidelined?
I'll call in again in a couple of years time and see if any agreement on what happened has been reached or whether you're all squabbling over who is a shill for which disinformation agency.

Garrett, no offence but I'm deeply annoyed that you made me read that garbage. There is a rather startingly large hole in his theory, which he doesn't even address... how would private video footage taken by people with camcorders get faked? The rest is wild conjecture that begins at the end and moves to his pre-destined conclusion. Begin at the beginning. I'll use the CD theory as a guide. Could the official story of the building collapse (or plane crash) be true? In the case of the building collapse, the pancake theory defies logic. In the case of planes striking the WTCs, it's entirely possible but perhaps questionable as the best method the perps could have used (though even that conclusion is itself very questionable). Next, if the official theory is incorrect what does the evidence show (or if planes didn't hit the WTC what did?). In the case of CD, there is a lot of evidence to suggest it (uniform, near freefall collapse; pulverization of the towers; eyewitness accounts of explosions; evidence for thermite use; video evidence during the collapse of lower floors blowing outwards; etc.). In the case of planes, I have seen no direct evidence of anything else. I have seen non-intuitive, serpentine counter-arguments to planes that claim to come to 'inescapable' conclusions that are mere possibilities, at best. Further, there is a lot of evidence for the official line that it was planes (eyewitness accounts; amatuer video footage; live media video footage; recovered pieces of the plane or planes; etc.). Ergo, the official story, in this instance, appears to be true. Is it possible that this convoluted series of logical disjuncts could in fact, startlingly, be fact? Sure, but that then begs the question of why a similar piece of fake video footage was not 'created' to 'solve' the pentagon mystery?
I arrived at the conclusion of CD by common sense: if it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, it's a freaking duck. By the same process, I cannot accept the "no planes" theory. The plane that hit WTC2 might not have been Flight 175, but it was certainly a plane. There is much less footage of WTC1 being hit, obviously, so that isn't as conclusive but I suspect it was also a plane. Something funny did happen at the Pentagon and I would much more readily believe that was a missile. I don't know why some people feel the need to cobble together complicated theories of what might have happened, then convince themselves it's true, when there is so much other evidence of a conspiracy staring them in the face. _________________ Stick to what you KNOW.
