WHAT THE PENTAGON CRASH SHOULD HAVE LOOKED LIKE
Date: 3/11/02 12:54:32 PM Pacific Standard Time
EXCERPT: Hi Kent, I was watching the news report at my parents house on Sept. 11th, just as the breaking report came that a TRUCK BOMB had just gone off in front of the Pentagon {in addition the tower hit}. The initial news footage showed a cloud of smoke billowing up from the building but it was from quite a distance away. There was no initial report that it was a plane... The entire world is being tricked into believing the American people stand behind what the Bush gov. is doing. The American people are being tricked into believing the Terrorists are just around the corner. The real enemy is the one doing the lying and the killing as usual. Funny how the lawful procedures for investigating airline crashes was not followed on Sept. 11th. That in itself is the smoking gun. We do not have a LAWFUL GOV. running the U.S.A. and they damn well know that is the truth. More
ARCHIVES 9/17: In the early morning of the explosion, a friend called me and told me that they had just seen on television that a number of the generals were found shot in the back in the Pentagon, even mentioning that some had been shot up to five times in the back.
John Bowman, a retired Marine lieutenant colonel and a contractor, was in his office in Corridor Two near the main entrance to the south parking lot. "Everything was calm,' Bowman said. "Most people knew it was a bomb. Everyone evacuated smartly. We have a good sprinkling of military people who have been shot at."

Well you cannot expect standard Commercial Airline Pilots to know about (CLASSIFIED). OPS BLACKSTAR is Highly Compartmented, Secret Fire-Command & Control Platform System that flies out of Holloman AFB NM./FT. Huachuca, AZ (BLACKBAG OPS). Combine BLACKSTAR (Pilotless) and Thiokol's Corps. Portal Transport Systems (illegally downloaded by Wen Ho Lee, at Los Alamos), and You can control ANY AIRCRAFT THAT IS FBW. Remember that OPS BLACKSTAR has broadcast dissemination capabilities to 100 Aircraft at one time (AWACS, ASARS, JSTARS, TENCAP, TROJAN SPIRIT, GUARDRAIL-CS, UAV's, SIGINT, TEAMMATE, TRACKWOLF, REMBASS, HUMINT, CI IMINT, MASINT, TECHINT, JTF, ARF-OR, ACE, JIC, ACT) for an effective INTELLIGENCE BOS. I have personally SEEN, OPS BLACKSTAR in operation.
THE ENEMY IS INSIDE THE GATES As an old and not so bold pilot, I became more convinced that the four commercial jets were choreographed by a "conductor" from a central source, namely an airborne warning and control system (AWACS). They have the electronic capability to engage several aircraft simultaneously, knock out their on-board flight controls by EMP (electro-magnetic pulsing) and assume command and remote control of these targeted aircraft.

WTC ANOMALY Whatzit? I can't tell either, except that it hit the tower going very, very fast.
EDITOR: even the above is still "thinking within boxes". I now believe that we are currently experiencing a deep re-write of reality, almost like a shift from one band of the space-time spiral to another. The physics does indeed seem to exist whereby things can be made to appear or not [by engineering the Schroedinger equation or by alchemically tripping a dark ritual, ie., 9-11]. Are we awakening? No, it does not seem so, but rather falling into a more dimly-lit region of the World of Shadows. Could this de-evolution be reversed? Why, of course, in a blink! But we must challenge all, our hero-worship, our primitive science, our gnarly warrior-gods blamed to rip the world apart from within the un-Holy Land. An impulse must be made deep within DNA -Consciousness-- to flush it all and re-dream. It has all come down to the responsibility of the unfettered, solitary and fragile human traveler, the true Seer.

Dear Kent, Greetings from Skyway, WA...Read your editorial:
I agree with you completely. But maybe the darkness we have sunk into seems to is a force that is making us work harder at finding truth, as never before. It sucks, that's for sure, but I have spent my life as a seeker, and when I look back on those years to now, what were they but Alan Watts and home made Zen?
Now it seems things have gone dark and the net result, at least for me, is a new way of thinking about reality that is a power of thought I never had before.
Hard to explain, but the depth of the fall around us, for at least some of us, seems to preclude our fall into fear with the mass. We seem to have a new strength of conviction that before was quess work. Suddenly a spiritual life is no longer a thing we read about in paperback books, something to aspire to and fail at over and over. After all, we bought the book at the mall.
Now its a necessity, it's everywhere.

Pentagon crash frames: Was it a 757, F-16, or Cessna F172?
Date: 3/11/02 6:52:26 AM Pacific Standard Time
From: SHERLOCK BILL
http://www.humanunderground.com/11september/unimaginable.html Kent: in your absence, this 'eschatus' guy has been examining the plane seen in the first frame, where a tail appears plainly. It seems likely that only a small Cessna-type private plane crashed into the Pentagon. And that's the reason an explosion had to be planted at the Pentagon timed to go off a fraction of a second before the plane got there. THAT WAY, the plane could slink in the Pentagon without trouble and get lost in the debris. You'll like this page Kent. He analyzes photos like you would. Naturally, everyone calls this guy a nutcase, but I analyzed it myself too. The tail isn't the right shape for a 757.
Date: 3/11/02 1:08:02 AM Pacific Standard Time
Dear Kent,
Wow I really found that Pentagon Footage you just posted to be quite incriminating. The first thing that is obvious is that fuel was indeed the major componet of explosive. This evident in the color of flame and smoke. I also noticed besides the absence of a plane in the footage the direction of the explosion itself is obviously a stationary or very very slow moving object such as a truck . A jetliner at best would at least had to have a rate of speed around 190 mph and I would guess in reality it would have been around 225-300 and that explosion would have ripped through and gone into the surrounding corrirdors and forward not up and evenly dispirsed as we saw there. We are being lied to people....when are we going to mobilize and start to bring this beast back to earth? Are you going to continue to demand more proof? I think a march is in order...anyone interested let Kent know and let's see just how many of us are sick of what we are seeing and hearing and are also willing to do something about it

Taking into account the angle covered in the surveillance camera photo (yellow lines) The scale of the 575-200, (white)
The analysis of the structural damage which shows that whatever hit, had to have impacted at an approach close to 90 degrees, (Red lines) The photo also indicates that the 20' tail (whose tip would be 44'6" off the ground when parked) is so low upon approach, a 3' post almost obscures it.
The question is, how did that large mature tree (green circle) directly in the flight path and barely out of camera range manage to remain unscathed? Or did the wing pass under the branches and just miss the trunk? Pretty good flying for a flunked-out cessna pilot.

HI;
Someone must be monitoring your site. Today for the first time, The
Pentagon has felt it had to show pictures of a plane ramming their
building.
I taped it, as Wolf Blitzer was showing Jamie McIntire's Pentagon
pictures allegedly taken off a Pentagon camera.
I put it on slow motion and saw no plane. Not only that, it has been
'messed' with. It shows clips. It looks like 3 clips. The same pictures,
or shots with Jamie McIntire were shown next on the Moneyline show. The
same questions asked with the same answers. Jamie pointing to where
you're supposed to see a plane coming along the ground about 2 feet
above the ground before it hits the Pentagon. I have yet to see a plane.
If there is one, there certainly is not a passenger plane. What it looks
like to me is a release of material before an explosion. Like the
pressure couldn't hold it any more and spewed it out. This film must
have just been doctored for our use. There is no plane in the film.
There is not even a semblence of a plane. There only remains the lie.

Re: PENTAGON PIX
Hi;
Thanks for the pictures. That's what CNN is showing on tv.
However, I switched back to tv, from web tv and ran the tape back to the
moment of impact on slow, slow motion, and there's no plane! There's
nothing the size of a Boeing passenger plane anywhere near that outer
wall.
What Jamie Mc Intire was pointing to, and what you have circled, is not
a Boeing passenger plane the size of one we see at the airport. Those
are tall. There is nothing hitting the building from the outside in that
picture sequence coming from the Pentagon. The fact that they're feeling
like they have to show it tells me there's some fear and pressure there.
Because they never bothered to show this until it hit the internet that
there was no plane hitting the Pentagon. We're talking 6 months ago with
no pictures releases. Why all of a sudden now?
Too many people are dying in this war. How can we stop it? I have
written to my reps, and sen. but no one is listening.
They can't seem to see where we're heading.
Kindest personal regards,
Patt Latham

I flew the Boeing 747 JUMBO Jet., but not this 757. I
retired before this
came into service. But, from what I see( or don't see)
looking at
these pictures; its hard to pick out aircraft parts.
The wingtips
alone would have sheared off and bounced back into the
street,
the engines (2) would have penetrated deeper into the
wall and
framing structure further than any other part making
a
definate hole. The belly of the aircraft contains, fuel
tanks,baggage, mail bags, and cargo; none of this type
debris
can be seen. Assuming 8600 gallons of kerosene fuel @
specific
gravity of approx 6.9 lbs/gal(temperature considered)
weight of
the fuel would be close to 60,000 lbs and would
splatter
everywhere. Where are the seats,those with passengers
buckled
in would be ripped our of the floor, for that matter,
where are
the passengers? I have never seen an aircraft accident
where the
aircraft evaporated upon impact, water,land or buildings.
If
these pictures were taken within 3 days after 9/11, there
would
have been definate remains of parts. I don't see any.
However,
digital computer photos can be doctored up to suit any
lawyers
cause.
From the photos shown, there ain't no fly in this pudding.

Subject: I saw no plane in the TV film
http://disc.server.com/discussion.cgi?id=149495&article=19976
While I have concentrated my recent research and writing via a three-part series focusing upon the insider trading as it relates to prior knowledge and financial profit from 9/11 deaths on Mike Ruppert's www.copvcia.com site, I too am concerned about the what looks to be "management" of the news film I watched regarding the Pentagon attack.
APFN's recent focus upon the Pentagon plane concerns some troubling issues. My two viewings of the TV clips of the reporter-described "plane hitting the Pentagon," clearly showed no film of any plane hitting the Pentagon--only the fire-bomb-like explosion in a series of seemingly edited clips.
The only problem (if I accept that no airliner hit the Pentagon) is "What happened to the missing jet said to have hit the Pentagon?" And that's a key issue to say the least!
One friend told me that "the planes are made of aluminum and the impact and temperature of the fire melted the plane down." Then another friend said "When was the last time you saw photos of ANY plane crash where there were no visible pieces of the plane left surrounding the crash site?" I would personally answer "never" to that one. There are always parts recovered.....at least some pieces. So, Houston, we have a problem.
I have never written an email to APFN; however, every time I turn around, another "problem" question surfaces regarding 9/11. What is bothering most of us is that no government official is even raising the issue--let alone asking the questions. This is just another one of them; but I am still trying to figure out where the plane went if it did not "melt" in the crash, leaving no evidence, pieces, or whole parts, etc.
Clearly, no Member of Congress is questioning these "Conspiracy" theories, to which they are often referred. Victim families and sympathetic, yes patriotic, Americans have to hope that the CIA-led "intelligence" joint committee will ask the hard questions--no chance--since they are more concerned with looking at the "process" of security lapses rather than finding out the "identities of the perpetrators." (foreign or domestic)
The writings of Jared Israel regarding the airplane stand-downs and presidential inaction are clearly the most damning and obviously visible problems that any thinking American should immediately pose. I am hopeful that he stays focused on that problem because the mainstream media might eventually pick up on that story. And widespread publicity will certainly create a firestorm once people start thinking about the evidence he raises on http://www.tenc.net
But isn't is sad that mainstream outlets are not asking these questions.
I am hopeful, however, that this time the internet will play a major role in getting to the truth. Americans are truly fed up with the secrecy and management of the news. I have received emails about Michael Moore's new book, "Stupid White Men," playing to huge crowds at bookstores in the normally conservative enclaves in the Republican West and far-West. (He has not yet toured our more urbane, liberal Northeast yet.)
But the book is in its 9th printing in just 5 days of release! If that is true, Moore must be saying something, because he is what Chris Matthews calls "a real lefty!" It is not often that California conservatives cotton to liberals like Moore--let alone wait for hours for him to sign a book. I may just go out and get a copy to see if he is joining APFN in asking the tough 9/11 questions. Keep up the great work, APFN. This 9/11 thing is NOT over yet--not by a long shot.

Kento: Hope the wedding went off ok... Now, this Pentagon Jumbo - more like Mumbo Jumbo ! - scenario..Important info - correct me if I am wrong, but let me take everyone back to that sad day...If I recall someone mailed the following day to say that he had been watching CNN early morning on the day all these events occurred....apparently some time prior to the WTC hit, CNN was in the process of reporting "an incident" at the Pentagon. It was reported that a few senior military officials had been involved in some internal fracas, involving the shooting and subsequent death of a number of military. Naturally the story was buried immediately after news of the WTC, and the next we hear of the pentagon is flight 77.
Now, if true, could there have been some dissent with the "white" military? who knows, but perhaps you can dig up that mail or the person who saw that piece of news...I believe it was on your site that week.
Just a thought...another piece of the cosmic jigsaw!!

Hi Kent,
I was watching the news report at my parents house on Sept. 11th, just as the breaking report came that a TRUCK BOMB had just gone off in front of the Pentagon {in addition the tower hit}. The initial news footage showed a cloud of smoke billowing up from the building but it was from quite a distance away. There was no initial report that it was a plane.
Considering all of the experts in this country who have gone to crash sites and removed even the smallest pieces of a downed aircraft and re-assembled the destroyed aircraft to determine what went wrong; it is appalling that such a damning lie with no physical evidence?? can be believed. There is no still shot in that security footage showing an airliner hitting the Pentagon. The damage shots clearly show that there is no damage to the Pentagon which can be or was physically caused by flight 77? Where did that flight really go? Where are the bodies? Where are the carefully reconstructed pieces of the aircraft itself? The number of gaps in the physical evidence clearly demonstrates there must be a very heavy handed top-down muzzle being applied to restrict information. The real war is being fought against us...people who ask too many questions...people who can see quite clearly that the Bush administration is obviously not in control of the U.S. government but is simply following orders from those that are and have taken over our country.
Sadly. the events of Sept. 11 were a diversion, as is the phony war in Afghanastan to keep the American people glued to the wrong end of the stick. See we are beating these bad terrorists to a pulp and all is well. Never mind the fact that we are lying through our collective media teeth about the actual reasons.
Apparently if a lie is so big and so bold that to admit that it is in fact all a damn lie and is too much for people to handle then they [media inc.?] will continue that tactic until they have achieved their actual goals. And it looks pretty grim. The entire world is being tricked into believing the American people stand behind what the Bush gov. is doing. The American people are being tricked into believing the Terrorists are just around the corner. The real enemy is the one doing the lying and the killing as usual. Funny how the lawful procedures for investigating airline crashes was not followed on Sept. 11th. That in itself is the smoking gun. We do not have a LAWFUL GOV. running the U.S.A. and they damn well know that is the truth.

Hi Kent,
Response: Went in vertically
is key here. I thought the pentagon plane went in more horizontally, at least
that's the impression I get from the new film of the crash, they finally
'made in hellywood'.
Response: Hundreds of witnesses.
Really? Why should that matter? Hundreds of witnesses, including military
personel, say they saw Flight 800 'missiled down', but their witnessings
were ignored and discredited by the FBI and NTSB. So if many Frenchmen are
slaughtered on their way back to gay Paree, we can ignore the evidence. But
if fifty Americans are sacrificed at the pentagram altar, (not necessarily
at The Pentagon) we must believe the witnesses. Sacre bleu! Are you people
for real???? Are you 'witlesses' for real??
Response: This mocking attitude makes me feel you
aren't serious. I don't remember the French inquiery being so arrogantly
obnoxious. They asked questions that were intelligently thought out and
inquiering. These are legitimate inquieries, we can still question the staus
quo, we're still allowed.
Response: Well now, that really makes
sense, a hardened road, so heavy trucks can go about their business. That
I can believe. Thanks for clearing that up. But do you have to cheapen the
response by calling the inquiering people wine-swilling Parisians? How does
that apply to this road? You sound like you've been imbibing and it's made
you mean -spirited.
Response: Well, now that does look
like hard evidence, if it is indeed, wreckage from a Boeing 757,that crashed
into the Pentagon on Sept. 11, 2001.
Response:That was , indeed, nasty of the French, if that was their intention and if they had access to these photo's and if these photo's are real and not hellywood, or CIA lab created. They can do that now , Joe, they manufacture evidence , since before the O.J. trial . You accuse the israeli's and jews of doing it, all the time.

Keep in mind:
10th frame of this slide show is Mark Faram's plane piece photo:
http://www.timesdispatch.com/terroristattack/pentagon/pentagon1.htm
(that's why the photo is called Pentagon10.jpg in some sites.)
Perhaps you could email Mark at mfaram@earthlink.net and ask him if there were any markings on that piece, or any other pieces laying around that would be silver in color, like the kind found in a Boeing 757-223 jet. If he says the piece was white and red, we can certainly suggest that piece came from a Cessna-type plane.

Background on Mark Faram from http://fred.pullen.com/pilot/who3.htm
Mark D. Faram
Email: mfaram@earthlink.net
I'm 38 and have been on the pilot list off and on for about a year. (mostly on). I am a writer/photographer. I am on the staff of the Army, Navy and Air Force Times as a photographer. I do a lot of freelance writing both for the company and other sources. (We are not part of the government. We are now part of the Gannett newspaper chain).
I was in the Navy for 9 years as a photojournalist and Deep Sea Diver. I have a strong interest in pda use in the Military and in journalism.
I have owned an laptop for five years and have hauled the same to Somalia, Bosnia, Persian Gulf, etc. In my search for something "more and less" I bought a PPPersonal in April of 97 and fell in love with it! After it was stolen at the Chicago's O'Hare airport in July, I did without one for a month when I bought a Pro. Eventually I had bought a modem and the TRG three meg upgrade as well as pilokey and a newton keyboard. I took it to Bosnia in Novemever and for the first time left the laptop at home. A co-worker had a newton and being a gaget freak I was curious. I bought a MP2K and had it upgraded only to find I had gained nothing except no limit on memo size. So I sold the Newton and bought a Toshiba Libretto and a PPPersonal (things come full circle).
I plan to keep both, as I feel I have found the perfect combination except for the fact of the limit on memo size. It still and always will piss me off and has me reading about those new WIN CE devices.
I don't plan to get the modem again, however I do intend to upgrade to the PIII board or get a new TRG board for added room. I use Palmeta Mail as I like the fact that it uses the notepad. I use it for caption information and sometimes interview notes, I use it for schedule as well as expenses and as a more portable way to read email.
I have both a Mac and PC desktop and am now playing with Linux(thanks to this list). I am interested in programming for the pilot, IBM and mac in ways to make work easier for Writers, Journalists and Photogs. I am good at teaching myself things and have learned about building Mac's and PC's on my own. I think I can start to learn programming on my own, (any suggestions for a starting point?). It could be a new career shift. I have used so much stuff in the field that I am a consultant of sorts to the other journalists I work with.
I live in Woodbridge Va. and am interested to know if there's a D.C. area users group. My web page has more of my resume as well as my photo work. it can be found at

Hey Kent: when the Pentagon 9-11 incident happened, what'd they do? Say "Hurry! We've got a plane piece! Call Dennis Ryan! He took the MASCAL photos!" It's the only other plane piece I've found so far, and the tell-tale rivet holes evenly spaced make it look like a plane piece.
How did Dennis Ryan just HAAAAAAAPPEN to be in the right place at the right time to take that plane piece photo, when he just HAAAAAAAAAAPPENED to take the MASCAL photos too? They should just come out and say the plane pieces come from a smaller remote-controlled Dragonfire plane, Or Cessna, or fill in the blank with the correct name.
Another plane piece from the Pentagon way at the bottom of this site:

(DENNIS RYAN took that photo.)
See? There's the same photo taken by Dennis Ryan.

Remember that Contingency planning Pentagon MASCAL exercise?
