Pentagon 911 Video: Conspiracy A Go-Go
The idea that 9/11 was some sort of conspiracy hadn’t even entered my mind until a couple of weeks ago when I was around at a friend’s house. He had bittorrented some conspiracy documentaries that had him convinced, or at least seriously questionning that 9/11 was an act of terrorism by Al-Qaeda - and more like an act of terrorism by “the illuminati” to control the population more easily through fear, by passing all kinds of human rights and civil liberties in the process. It all sounded way too paranoid to me and I chalked it down to a million monkeys all typing War and Peace.
However, yesterday the US government released 0.5 frame/second footage of Pentagon being allegedly hit by an airplane. I’ve read the conspiracy theory on it being a missile attack and was somewhat intrigued, but again, didn’t think that much more of it….
…until I actually saw this newly released footage, and now I’m much closer to the conspiracists than I was before. Why:
- That just does not look like the front of a medium to large airplane.
- Given the size and scale of the explosions at the WTC, this didn’t even compare
- The US military only has surveillance cameras that capture in 0.5 frames/second? Riiiiiight.
- The Pentagon only has one camera that caught any footage of the incident? That place must have EVERY angle covered, including its own dedicated satellite, and then some.
- If you’re going to release footage to quell a conspiracy theory, why do it quite so obviously badly? Are the american public really that stupid, or that scared, that they’ll accept that as a reasonable explanation?
Whatever your beliefs. even the most open minded individual has to be suspicious when the facts are being so obviously obscured.
