I am sitting at my desk minding my own business when an email comes in with a video clip showing the Mobile Tactical High-Energy Laser, or MTHEL shooting down some missiles. So I look it up on Wikipedia and find this: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tactical_high_energy_laserI get down to the part where it says the Prime Contractor was Northrop Grumman and the memorandum of agreement was signed on July 18,1996 I think to myself, Grumman has a bunch of facilities on Long Island right near where TWA flight 800 went down.... So I look up flight 800, and it went down July 17, 1996 within sight of at least one Grumman plant! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TWA_Flight_800Perhaps the agreement was signed after a successful test!!!! I am not saying that it happened that way, but i do hate coincidences! edge. |

Here is a quote from Wiki "About one-third of these witnesses reported that they observed a streak of light moving upward in the sky to the point where a large fireball appeared" Yikes!  Makes you think about it... |

I find them interesting. For one they at least get you to think outside the box. Your description is interesting. Nothing would suprise me after seeing the latest goings on in Washington.
Do you find it interesting that all of a sudden the media is all over the AIG bounuses when billions have been going out the back door previously and no one said a hoot. All the media peaked on the same day that the Fed snuck in a little announcement that they are going to buy up t bonds which is as far as I can tell is the biggest ponzi scam in history right in front of our eyes while everyone is looking at mere 146 million in bonuses?
Or, how can two similar steel structures impacted in different areas, at different velocities, with different masses, melt and collapse in exactly the same manner, (the twin towers) in a perfectly symetrical free fall manner?
I find them very interesting and the older I get the more I realize some are true.
Do you ever wonder what technology the military has that we do not even know about yet. When they finally showed everyone the stealth they had already perfected it years before?
Some folks are saying that the failed missle launches in North Korea are not really failed at all but are a result of the example you gave.
I find them interesting.

when flight 800 first was reported the news showd the radar and iy showd someting heading to floght 800 and when they met they both disappeared off the radar. you never saw that footage again?? it does make you think.
i too often wondered how the towers both fell perfectly streight down.

"i too often wondered how the towers both fell perfectly streight down. "
Whyohe, I don't want to come off as a smart Alec, but my guess would be gravity had something to do with it. A building is not like a tree. With the center support taken out ,and the perimeter weakened by fire the upper stories collapsed and inertia took care of the rest.
I am not a believer in conspiracies ,unless it is a conspiracy of one. People just can't keep their mouth shut. The more people involved , the less likely it will stay secret.

Edge, I'll read the articles later. For now I want to say that the eyewitness accounts of the Flight 800 being hit by a cruise missile were very detailed, specific and lengthy, in other words they didn't seem likely to be fabricated. I'll read the articles before saying more. It is a fact that I saw a cruise missile fly over my house in Aug. '01. It was followed behind and to the left by a commercial size jet, and the missle had blinking lights on the windtips. I saw all this through binoculars because I saw it coming from a long way off. These kinds of things make one think outside the box. The world trade centers: They were designed with an outer frame with much more massive columns than those at the center. These outer columns were designed as a "moment frame" to resist high wind (100 mph I believe). Also the architect stated that the towers would withstand the impact of a Boeing 707. So the inner columns failed first leading to an implosion fortunately. It is believed that the main reason the columns failed was because the fasteners at the end of the floor trusses- to columns failed under the heat, and when the floors went free, the columns did not have the bracing they needed, they were too "slender", and buckled and broke under the weight and heat.

I'm not an engineer but i would think that the side that took the impact would be weaker and would give way FIRST from the extreme heat causing it to collapse to one side. them collapsing straight down saved many lives IMO.

I do not subscribe to most of the theories about the above discussed instances. To have conspriacies so huge, there needs to be many, many conspirators are large scale coordination and planning. As human nature has it, leaks emerge eventually and real conspiracies are compromised and revealed.
Just my opinion of course.
