I had a personal friend on flight 800 and another who worked for the FAA for more than 40 years at a high level and can tell you with absolute certainty that the government's story about that incident is a COMPLETE fabrication.
@austingirl @Bigun When the NTSB and FAA were butted aside for the CIA and FBI to take over and the journalists who found PETN on fabric taken from the seatcovers were prosecuted I knew it was a scam. How many 747s have been in service since the three wise men looked in the manger and have never had a center fuel tank explosion. As an old oilfield hand, and a former firefighter I know flammable vapors need the right amount of oxygen to explode: it requires just the right mix and dispersion, and that isn't likely with a fuel that has been blended specifically to reduce volatility in the event of a problem in a closed tank designed to NOT have that problem. Spark or no spark, no oxygen, or the wrong mix of oxygen and air, no explosion, and in some cases, no fire.
When the CIA is making cartoons to explain away an event that should have been the purview of the NTSB, the only question is one of how much bullsh*t is being shoveled, not the nature of the substance.
Despite tens of thousands of pages and hundreds of interviews, not one person either on the ground or in the air, from multiple vantage points, who saw a streak of light go up before the plane came down was ever interviewed by the investigating agencies.
One thing about jihadis, if they do some thing and try to take credit and the act is written off as 'natural causes', they will do something bigger and more brutal until people finally notice that it was, in fact, a terrorist act. Their first try at the WTC didn't work, although they got credit for that. OKC was blamed on the white guys Clinton wanted desperately to disarm, and used as something to settle accounts over Waco although the events likely had no more relationship than being published about in the same newspapers, but they stove piped the intel agencies data to the point that the opportunity to stop 9/11 was crippled by the information flow parameters from the Gorelick Memo, the same Jamie Gorelick who sat on the 9/11 commission.
The swamp is a festering bog of rot and corruption, and it runs deep. It will take more than one presidential term, short of firing everyone and starting over, to drain the place.
