To Pentagon 9/11 Conspiracy Theorists...
...that shout "it was a missle! Look at the damage! There are no wing holes in the Pentagon!" et cetera, please see El Al Flight 1862, wherin a 747 smashed into a building on the ground. Take a look at the picture, and note the distinctive lack of wing-induced damage to the building.

Re: To Pentagon 9/11 Conspiracy Theorists...
One thing that just irritates me no end is that if "Everything changed on 9.11" is the new holy of all holy Truths, there follows along the unstated corollary that it cannot be questioned.
Sorry, but one thing that hasn't changed is that I do have some questions before I agree we can shred the Constitution, OK?

Ok. Just Remember that J.K. Rowling revealed that Dumbledore was gay, and that one underlying message in Harry Potter is to always question authority. Never accept what they say without examining it.

Re: To Pentagon 9/11 Conspiracy Theorists...
Damn. Question Authority?!
I thought that started with The Sons of Liberty, and the other terrorists back then.
Who knew?!

Works every time.
Besides, every picture tells a story, and a wink's as good as a nod to blind horse.
...not to mention good samaritan's are liable in some cases, and 'Informed Consent' is generally best practice.

Re: To Pentagon 9/11 Conspiracy Theorists...
It's a mistake to believe that conspiracy theories are subscribed to based on a logical conclusion. It's an emotional state of mind more than anything else. Hence, believers are immune to arguments against their beleifs.

There are tons of genuine conspiracies being comitted regularly against us. Just get some genuine professional analysis before levelling charges.

That is a curious theory,cloaked as fact, indeed. But, to each their own.

Re: To Pentagon 9/11 Conspiracy Theorists...
And in fairness to the conspiro-dudes, the Wiki link Dan provided says:
At 6:35 pm local time, the Boeing 747, in nearly a ninety-degree bank with its right wing pointing at the ground, plowed into two high-rise apartment complexes in the Bijlmermeer neighborhood, at the corner of a building where the Groeneveen complex met the Klein-Kruitberg complex.
In other words the wings didn't mark the building to the sides of the fuselage entry point because the wings weren't horizontal, they were vertical. So it's not very useful to compare it to the Pentagon crash.

Re: To Pentagon 9/11 Conspiracy Theorists...
Americans suck at conspiracies. I understand the Turks do them VERY well, and other places in the developing world also have conspiracy theories about EVERYTHING. CIA pretty much controls everything, turns out.
Jesus said to the servants, "Fill the jars with water"; so they filled them to the brim. Then he told them, "Now draw some out and take it to the master of the banquet." They did so, and the master of the banquet tasted the water that had been turned into wine. He did not realize where it had come from, though the servants who had drawn the water knew.

Not only does the CIA pretty much control everything, but like everyone who's run every conspiracy in the history of the human race, they execute their massive plots with apparently infallable perfection.

Yes, it's why the world opposes so much of America's foreign policy: toxic, virulent jealousy.

Oh, come now, you know better than most that as a matter of course, I don't pay a whole lot of attention to these things known as facts. I saw the picture and drew my own conclusions.

Pictures can be doctored, so I don't trust them as a credible source. However, having said that, there is more than enough information to prove your point. For example, the fuel used on the supposed plane that crashed is known to burn at a specific temperature, yet there were no such burn marks anywhere to be found at the site. Also, one of the engines found at the site was not from a commercial airliner, so how did it get there? Lots of good questions to be asked, but I wouldn't rely on just 'pictures' for any of them. A group of independent investigators and reporters (some of which have testified before Congress) have been researching this topic. You can find a lot of their documents and information by clicking here. There is also a book out written by Paul Thomson which documents a lot of the timeline information. For most people the best place to start is a video based on his book called "9/11 - Press for Truth". Chances are your library has a copy of it that you can watch for free.
All you have to do is connect the dots to raise questions. Following the 1993 bombing of the World Trade Center a security company called Securacom acquires an $8.3 million contract to help provide security. One week before 9/11 the FBI schedules a routine sweep of the building for explosives, however their request is suddenly turned down and the building is never checked. Guess who turned down the bomb sweep and was in charge of the security company Securacom? Marvin P. Bush, the youngest brother of George W. Bush. Uncharacteristically the FBI never investigates. Oh yeah, almost forgot to mention, one of the planes involved in 9/11 - American Airlines Flight 77 - took off from Dulles. Guess who was in charge of their security (maintaining the airfield access systems, the closed circuit television systems, and the electronic badging systems) - That's right, Securacom, run by bush's brother. You can learn more by googling. Here is one article that I found, but for the most detailed information it's best to use the link for the timeline above. It has incredible detail and you are able to cross reference with it.
