Number 9 is a new one to me, and seems to be proof on the side of the truthers who don’t think a plane hit the pentagon.
DNA analysis is the gold standard for identifying human remains and may be the only available method, when other methods, such as birthmarks, dental records, or fingerprints are not available. If sufficient DNA can be recovered, forensic DNA typing can identify biological samples—even when the human remains are fragmented and the DNA is degraded, as with the World Trade Center victims.
Identifications are made by comparing the DNA profile of reference samples with those from the human remains. The reference samples can be obtained from: (1) personal items used by the victim (a toothbrush, hairbrush, or razor); (2) banked biological samples (sperm or biopsy tissue from the victim); (3) biological relatives of the victim; and (4) human remains previously identified by other methods or other already-DNA-typed fragmented remains.

It will be like Pearl Harbour years later they will admit it. ie- they knew it was going to happen and let it. As an excuse to go to war. This time it was the war on terror. Gotta let all those involved die off first.

#3 was known about something like a year and a half before 9/11. Rumsfeld was talking about overhauling the accounting system at the Pentagon. They have since accounted for most if not all of the money, but it took years.

I just gave it a listen. I think that a transcription of the reporter's statements would miss the inflections and stresses in his voice.
Put baldly, he says: "There's no evidence that a plane hit anywhere near the Pentagon."
But when you listen to it, he says: "There's no evidence that a plane hit anywhere near the Pentagon."
What he's doing is actually saying that this wasn't a near-miss, it was a direct strike. He then goes on to talk about the bits of wreckage scattered around, saying that there are no large sections like tailfin or wings discernible. He's painting a picture for viewers, since news cameras were being kept at a distance, not promoting a controversial new theory.
