Yep, fear is definitely in the air. CIT must really be on to something. Unless there's another reason several brand-new debunkers have been assigned 24/7 duty to try and discredit him.

Not to mention an astonishing 159 flags, with partial credit going to the debunkers for keeping his thread bumped!

Why do "we" only care about CIT's flight path? The evidence in this thread is about proving the official flight path wrong.
Proving that one or several of CIT's possible flight paths is wrong does not prove the official one true.

Adam Larson/Caustic Logic posted this image at The Frustrating Fraud:
The purple text and box is where he believes the video was taken from.
The redline is where he believes the C-130 flew. This was made before the more detailed Rades data was known. As you can see, he didn't miss it by much.

I repeat: we don't care about an "official" flight path. We care about CIT's flight path. It is not "either-or".

However strong EVIDENCE was presented supporting a North of Citgo flight path. Not conjecture, not strident argument but EVIDENCE independently corroborated in several instances which in and of itself demands a new investigation!

I agree, that there is corroborated evidence that suggests a flight path North of Citgo. I feel this is an important piece of this puzzle, for this is what it truly is, a puzzle. How it fits into the picture is what I want to know.

Of course it would, if it were allowed. As soon as those 85+ videotapes that were confiscated by the FBI just minutes after whatever really hit the Pentagon were subpoenaed, it would be an open-and-shut case.
But as we already know, any lawsuit or criminal charges would be thrown out before it got to that point, as former Bob Dole aide Stanley Hilton discovered when he tried to bring 9/11 conspiracy charges against the Bush regime:
It's interesting to note the ruling was based on the "Doctrine of Sovereign Immunity". "In other words, the suit was not dismissed because of lack of evidence, but rather because the judge reasoned that U.S. citizens do not have the right to hold a sitting President accountable for anything, even if the charges include premeditated mass murder and premeditated acts of high treason."
Yep, fear is definitely in the air. CIT must really be on to something. Unless there's another reason several brand-new debunkers have been assigned 24/7 duty to try and discredit him.

-CIT evidence of north CITGO jet.
-Official story 'jet’ south of CITGO.
A solid (Pentagon Cop) witness at the North side pumps at the time of fly-over - as shown on the gas station’s own in-house video. This coupled with witness ability to use the station's overhang as a plane referencing point corroborates his testimony. CITs new Arlington witnesses further support a second passenger jets north of CITGO.
Excluding all other points,
The North side jet can not account for downed light pole damage attributed to the official 'jet' flight path.

The interviewer then explains that “the official story says that the plane came on the south side and hit the light poles here [pointing].” Legasse responds:
“No Chance.There’s no chance. If… as a matter of fact [emphasizing strongly], there was a light pole here [where Lagasse claims the plane flew] that was knocked down, and there was [another] here, that was knocked down—not any over here…none of these light poles over here were knocked down… I’ve never seen anything that was on the south side of that gas station—ever.”
Absolutely false! Lagasse is wrong.
Lagasse continues, “I don’t have eyes in the back of my head.”
This assumes he was facing in the direction he remembered.This is a possibility as Lagasse misremembers where he was standing at the gas station.He claims with confidence:
“This is where the taxi cab was.Right here.Not over there. Nothing happened over here!”
Wrong again.So much for “100%—I’d bet my life on it” certainty (which the filmmakers exploit with slow motion replay for manipulative effect). Lagasse is 100% wrong about the taxi cab and the light pole location.
This shows that Laggase’s entire testimony about the flight path is in doubt.If he cannot determine where the real lamp poles and the taxi cab were, we have strong reasons to doubt his testimony about the flight path.If he does not know where these objects were located how could he remember which direction the plane flew?Especially noteworthy is the fact that he claims that the flight path was approximately where he thought the light poles and taxi cab were—is it reasonable to think that the plane flew where the real lamp poles were—not where he thought they were?This example vividly illustrates why testimony years after the event is less reliable.Although some details are clearly remembered, others are not.Even the interviewer admits, “everyone knows people’s memories—it’s hard to recollect things sometimes.”[250]

He never said he saw the poles get hit, he just said the poles were knocked down. Anyone could say that after seeing the poles on the ground, including people who didn't see the plane at all.
Dear Sir rest assured it was a Boeing 757 that flew into the building that
day, I was on duty as a pentagon police sgt. I was refueling my vehicle at
the barraks k gas station that day adjacent to the aircrafts flight path.
It was close enough that i could see the windows had the shades pulled down,
it struck several light poles next to rt 27 and struck a trailer used to
store construction equipment for the renovation of the pentagon that was to
the right of the fueselage impact point. The fact that you are insinuating
that this was staged and a fraud is unbelievable. You ask were the debris
is...well it was in the building..I saw it everywhere. I swear to god you
people piss me off to no end. I invite you and you come down and I will walk
you through it step by step. I have more than a few hours in general
aviation aircraft and can identify commercial airliners. Have you ever seen
photos of other aircraft accident photos...there usually isnt huge amounts
of debris left...how much did you see from the WTC?...are those fake
aircraft flying into the building. I know that this will make no diffrence
to you because to even have a websight like this you are obviously a
diffrent sort of thinker. source

I’ve never seen anything that said it was on the south side of that gas station.Ever [looks upwards in bewilderment].These were the light poles.This is where the taxi cab was [pointing to the same incorrect location].Nothing [emphasizing] happened over here.I can’t be any clearer about it.”
100% false!We know that Lagasse is definitely wrong about the location of the light pole damage and taxi cab.We know that he thought the plane flew in the location where he believed these objects were.The PentaCon ignores the possibility that he saw the plane where the light poles and taxi cab were actually located.
