Oh, now I get it
« on: September 03, 2004, 03:51:54 PM »
The threads that keep getting locked and erased are about that wackjob Pentagon conspiracy theory video. Or... I think they are... If you do a search using the word "pentagon" you get a few threads that say "nothing to see here" and there really isn't. The content is gone...

Gotta say... the vid is nicely done.

Still... I felt the bile rise in my throat. I worked in Crystal City at the time and the I could feel the anger building almost to the point where I could scream at this monitor or just shut it off and walk away... but I watched it.

It's an odd thing really... there aren't a great number of things that make me instantly furious. This is apparently one of them.

Thanks Sandman, was interesting. If not a 757 then what?


And more importantly, why lie about it? They offer no reason or theory as to why.

It is BS conspiracy theorist garbage.

The people on that plane were real and did not simply disappear.  That video is trash and those who produced it are idiots.  Only the gullible believe such drivel.

A good debunking is found here:
http://www.snopes.com/rumors/pentagon.htm

You guys should love that it was started by a Frenchman.  Though in fairness at least one French paper slammed it in a review as being garbage.

Yeah... I've seen the website before... I didn't experience the same reaction to it as the video though.

If you want the link, I'll send it.

Of course, if this thread becomes as shrill as the others, it will be locked, I think.

Sandman,

The website I link was a debunking, not a site that supported the crazies.
