Was flight 93 shot down by our Government?
367577
Only an idiot would believe that it wasn't shot down! Only those who do not follow the news would beleive its a conspiracy theory when it is already documented fact That America did shoot down Flight 93. Why can't you people believe that what you consider a conspiracy theory may actually be the conpiracy truth?\n\n Amyone who says it is a stupid question are in fact showing their own ignorance and the fact that they ar part of the ignorant sheeple that follow every order given by the government. After all the government are people just like you next door neighbor, and if you can believe your neighbor is capable of committing a crime then why arn't government people able to since they are simply people like you and me?\n\n After all, the Bush cabal is the most corrupt government in history. More people in this administration have been charged and convicted than any administration and several more charged today on 4-07-06. Today it was also mentioned in the  news that it was George Bush who leaked the secret agent Valeri Plames name and exposed her causing the death of thousands of Amreican agents. That is a crime and is punishable in America as treason against America. This should kick off a viceous battle to impeach this treasonous man and have him convicted in court for treason against America and spend the rest of his life in Jail or be executed such as many others have been in the past.This man is dangerous and a traitor to the United States of America\n\nWhy do you think that last week he (BUSH)  visited  Mexixo's President Vincenti Fox and one week after Bush's return America was invaded by millions of Mexicans. Could President Fox be helping Bush to divert attention away from his impeachable crime of exposeing CIA names by directing millions of Mexicans to converge upon America thusly causeing turmoil and allowing Bush to implimet the greater parts of the Patriot Act and in the name of national security, lock down the US, open detention camps, and suspend the constitution and also suspend the comming elections thusly making BUSH the dictator for many , many years to come? This is all in the New Patriot Act and can and will be done if we Americans allow him to do it. This whole Mexican charade is a set up in order to impliment the police state in order to make BUSH the dictator of America. It happened once and it can happen again! \n  \nAnd for those of you who believe questioning the offical story of flight 93 is somehow an insult to the families,you could never be more wrong. First it is an insult to the families to not want to know the truth. Second, even the families don't believe the official story so who are you to speak for the famlies desire to know the truth? Why do you blatantly beleive what the government tells you without desiring to know the whole truth? Ahhhhh too many sheep in the world, so blind, so ignorant, so easily fooled. No wonder our government can get away with anything before our very eyes. The dumbing down of Amreica has been a success when the people of America refuse to question the governments offical story when it is shakey at least,\n\n  Doanld Rumsfield hinself mentioned on national TV that America did in fact shoot down flight 93\n\n"Rumsfeld says 9-11 plane 'shot down' in Pennsylvania "\n\n  "WASHINGTON – Ever since Sept. 11, 2001, there have been questions about Flight 93, the ill-fated plane that crashed in the rural fields of Pennsylvania. \n\nThe official story has been that passengers on the United Airlines flight rushed the hijackers in an effort to prevent them from crashing the plane into a strategic target – possibly the U.S. Capitol. \n\nDuring his surprise Christmas Eve trip to Iraq, Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld referred to the flight being shot down – "\nhttp://www.wnd.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=42112\n\n\n   FLIGHT 93 SHOT DOWN\n\nEyewitness Reports at Odds With Official Scenario\n\nSome local residents here

completely agree.  this plane was most likely shot down by the air force, but it makes a great story about those people being heros. god bless them all, but i don't think it's true.  \n\nyou know, it sucks that crap happens, but we do the same damn thing every day in other countries.  we kill innocent people and blow up crap for no reason.  too bad, that's probably why they do it back, then we do it back, and it never stops.  it will only get worse.

Yes, the world trade center was brought down by explosives.\nThis was visible to anybody with a serious knowledge of demolitions from the images taken by the victims at ground level. The building fell too easilly, too smoothly, didn't\ntumble, didn't veer to one side. You can see the explosives taking out every few floors in slow motion.\n\nIn all probability the world trade center was demolished by the bush administration.\n\nAs an aside, the idea that the fuel of those planes could have caused the collapse is total nonsensical fiction. The physics say theres not enough energy. And one of the planes\nblew up 95 percent of its fuel against the side of the building. Also interesting are the buildings demolished by explosives hundreds of feet away from the towers.\n\nThere is an entire movement on the internet called the 911\ntruth movement that has been bringing attention to this for years. Eventually history will show that 911 was the Bush administrations "riestagg fire". The excuse they needed to justify the wars they wanted to have.

Uh, a Boeing DID  crash into the Pentagon.  My sisters' friend's uncle had just left that part of the Pentagon to get coffee (or something) when the plane hit.  He's was lucky.

There are currently two "Flight 93" movies.\n\nThis one is on post-production: \nhttp://www.imdb.com/title/tt0475276/\n\nThis one already aired on TV: \nhttp://www.imdb.com/title/tt0481522/

The buildings looked like they were professionally demoed. Plus, some of the people questioning the matter have been killed in accidents or murders. \n\nI don't know if Bush himself knew about it or not, but I find the whole thing suspicious. Plus, there was no evidence of a plane hitting the Pentagon. No wings, no footage from security cameras. But then the question is if it wasn't the plane that hit, where's the plane with all of those passengers? Also, what did explode at the Pentagon? I heard on the news at first that it was a truck bomb, then it was changed.\n\nbradsgranny, Bush has said he wasn't interested in Osama's whereabouts since the Iraq invasion.

Terrorist crashed the plane and US peace activists blame the US government. I really don't think the blame will ever change due to fact that the media will focusing on the negative side of every issue. Whens the last time you heard a news agency maintain a report on what the men in women of the US forces think. It's sad that American news would rather focus on the belly archer's than on the ones dying in the fields to defend the freedom of speech that is being slandered. Enough said!

The actual numbers were 34 dead and 173 wounded, or a total of 70% of the crew.  The Liberty was our newest "Intelligence" ship.  (clue)  This investigation was squashed and deemed classified by the Johnson Administration 39 years ago.  There are veteran groups out there today still trying to get  satisfaction on this issue. So in answer to your question,  essentially nothing was done except a whole lot of sweeping under the rug.

1st of all, the pilots of the plane are NOT going to fly an airliner into anything. The terrorists may kill them and fly the plane themselves, but it will not be the pilots. \n2nd of all, the plane will be shot down rather quickly, no matter where it is flying to...no ifs, ands, or buts about it. And 3rdly, I think that all the passengers would have had to be killed in this day and age...I no longer think we as passengers, are going to sit by like sheep and allow anyone else to kill us as in 9/11. If we are going to die, I, certainly for one, will go down fighting and take others with me...count on it.!

September 11, 2011\n\nThe September 11, 2001 attacks (often referred to as 9/11 [1]) were a series of coordinated terrorist attacks upon the United States of America carried out on Tuesday, September 11, 2001.\n\nThat morning, nineteen men affiliated with al-Qaeda[2][3] hijacked four commercial passenger jet airliners. The attackers crashed two planes into the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center in New York City, one plane into each tower, causing the collapse of both towers within two hours. Hijackers of the third aircraft crashed that plane into the Pentagon in Arlington County, Virginia. Passengers on the fourth hijacked aircraft attempted to retake control of their plane from the hijackers; that plane crashed into a field in rural Somerset County, Pennsylvania. Approximately 3,000 people died in these terrorist attacks.\n\nThe attacks began with the hijacking of four commercial airliners. With jet fuel capacities of nearly 24,000 U.S. gallons (91,000 litres),[4] each aircraft effectively became a flying incendiary bomb. American Airlines Flight 11 crashed into the north side of the north tower of the World Trade Center (WTC) at 8:46:30 a.m. local time (12:46:40 UTC). At 9:02:59 a.m. local time (13:03:11 UTC), United Airlines Flight 175 crashed into the south tower, an event covered live by television broadcasters who had their cameras trained on the North Tower. American Airlines Flight 77 crashed into the Pentagon at 9:37:46 a.m. local time (13:37:46 UTC). The fourth hijacked plane, United Airlines Flight 93, crashed in a field in southwest Pennsylvania, at 10:03:11 a.m. local time (14:03:11 UTC), with parts and debris found up to eight miles away. The crash in Pennsylvania is believed to have resulted from the hijackers either deliberately crashing the aircraft or losing control of it as they fought with the passengers. No one survived in any of the hijacked aircraft.[5]\n\nThe fatalities were in the thousands: 265 on the four planes; 2,595, including 343 New York City firefighters, 23 NYPD police officers, and 37 Port Authority police officers, in the towers and on the ground; and 125 civilians and military personnel at the Pentagon. At least 2,986 people were killed in total. In addition to the 110-floor Twin Towers of the World Trade Center itself, five other buildings at the WTC site, including WTC building 7, and four subway stations were destroyed or badly damaged. In total, on Manhattan Island, 25 buildings were damaged. Communications equipment such as broadcast radio, television and two-way radio antenna towers were damaged beyond repair. In Arlington County, a portion of the Pentagon was severely damaged by fire and one section of the building collapsed.[6]\n\nSome passengers and crew members were able to make phone calls from the hijacked flights. They reported that multiple hijackers were aboard each plane. A total of 19 were later identified by the FBI, four on United 93 and five each on the other three flights.\n\nFor a short period, the precise identity of the 19 hijackers was uncertain. For example, the BBC reported 14 days after the attack that 4 of the 19 were alive based upon the initial identification supplied by the FBI.[7]\n\nThe hijackers reportedly took control of the aircraft by using box-cutter knives to kill flight attendants and at least one pilot or passenger. The 9/11 Commission could only establish that two of the hijackers had recently purchased Leatherman multi-function hand tools,[8] but some form of noxious chemical spray, such as tear gas or pepper spray, was reported to have been used on American 11 and United 175 to keep passengers out of the first-class cabin. Bomb threats were made on three of the aircraft, but not on American 77.

Universal Studios has made a movie called "United 93" about the 4th plane that was taken town by heroic Americans. The film will be released in theatres on April 28, 2006. \n\nhttp://www.flight93.net/index.php.

This is a very true possibility because there is actual proof of the government hiding what happend on that day... if you recall a plane had also hit the pentagon as well as the towers right... negative there was no plane wreckage at that site. what had actualy hit it was a missle. and the government wants us to believe that it was a plan to not cause panic.

They threatened the people on the planes with boxcutters (not plastic knives), but they claimed they had a bomb, and we will never know if they actually did. \n\nWhat's more, the people on board probably thought there was a good chance they'd make it out alive. After all, in the 70s, tons of planes were hijacked and the crews and passangers rescued or returned safely. People used to hijack planes all the time to make political points, particularly Palestianians.\n\n9/11 also happened because law enforcement got too lax, encouraged by a lazy, fat American public. We got complacent, and they hit us bad. \n\nYou know you would? Listen up, buddy. When someome has a boxcutter to your throat, you're in a plane flying at 300 mph thousands of feet high, you're not so brave. Especially if you think that they might have a bomb, and you rush them, they'll detonate it and kill everyone. Also, you'd have to rush a small cockpit, and the pilots could be killed, which would make the plane crash.\n\nThink and gather facts before you talk, please.\n\nThe Wise One\n\nP.S. eva the diva, you are a sad, pathetic, horrifying person. You talk of human life like they are nothing more than objects. You should be ashamed of yourself. What has made you so cynical? Where is your proof of this "New World Order"?\n\nNutcase.\n\nP.P.S. Sorry I'm not into kissing moron ass.

The official story regarding the plane that crashed into the Pentagon is that it was totally consumed by burning fuel and left no wreckage. One of the many things that happened 9/11/2001 that had never happened before or since. What really mystifies me though is how many dismiss the notion that their was some government involvement in what transpired on 9/11 without even considering an alternative scenario other than the one the government has given.

The motive would be to declare martial law.\n***\nThe plane intended to hit the Capitol was shot down before it hit it's target.  (I'm going off of the theories that I am familiar with.)  Signals were crossed and the plane was shot down early.  This, in turn, made for a wonderful story, as the plane was determined crashed because the brave souls on the flight stood up to their highjackers.  Had that plane hit the Capitol, the whole of D.C. would have been crippled and George W. Bush would have had an indisputable reason to declare martial law.\n***\nI don't have the movie memorized.  If you need to know about these conspiracies, please watch one of the films dedicated to the topic, or read a book based on the same.  The plane didn't hit (according to the theories I am familiar with) because the military plane sent to target it misinterpreted the orders.  Their plan did not go 100% accordingly, obviously.  The motive was there, the means were there, the actual act got muffed due to a lack of interpretation on the pilot's part.  (PLEASE do not think that I am holding these happenings as truth, I am just filling you in on all that I've watched, read, and heard on the radio.)\n***\nDid you ask just to ridicule?  I thought that this was a debate forum of sorts, not a free-for-all insult fest.

Absolutely absurd. How could the US have helped 9/11? Why would  they? How would no one have come up with any credible evidence after all these years? What reason is there to think that it was not a well-planned attack, run by a large group of Arab terrorists? I think that is the story that fits the evidence.\n\nThey're not addressed in any plausible way. Vast conspiracies don't actually happen or work. Someone always finds out, and yet there's no evidence of this conspiracy.\n\nEdit: Jets did not intercept the planes because they are stationed hundreds of miles from where they were and were not alerted until shortly before the planes crashed. The FAA notified NORAD at 8:40 and planes were scrambled 6 minutes later, 153 miles from the World Trade Center and the first plane crashed at about that time. http://mckinneysucks.blogspot.com/2002_06_01_mckinneysucks_archive.html#77997492\n\nThe buildings fell quickly because they were crashed into by giant airliners. It seems like a building like that should be able to withstand more, but neither you, nor I, nor Ruppert, nor even the engineers who built the towers know what it is like for a plane to crash into a building. The commission report clearly states that the plane struck main support beams and started fires that raged at intense temperatures, further weakining the already weakened supports. Once that happens it doesn't take long for a building to collapse onto itself.\n\nAs for WTC7, the report is clear enough that fires were started on several floors by debris. People say it looks too controlled, but they failr to realize that buildings that tall are made to crumble down and not out. If a main beam buckles, there's no momentum to throw debris out - the force is all down.\n\nHow long it took to form a commission is a question I have myself, but that alone does not make a conspiracy.\n\nAs for explosions, see this: http://www.geocities.com/factsnotfantasy/ExplosivesDebunked.html
