Sometimes people ask me "why would they use missiles or whatever and run the risk of being caught out ? If they're going to sell a story about planes, why not make it as convincing as possible and use real planes"?
It's a silly question, because in the face of direct visual and forensic proof that they didn't use planes (mostly supported by what little witness evidence we have), speculations about their thinking and planning are meaningless.
Nevertheless, since we live in extremely silly times, I'm going to address this question on its own terms.
Put yourself in the position of the perps. You have to think through what could go wrong in each possible scenario and then decide which scenario poses the smallest risk.
You want to sell a story about hijacked planes.
At the first level of decision making, you have two choices.
1) Actually use planes.
2) Use missiles or whatever the blobs 11 thing is, & convince people that they were planes.
Lets first look at the second scenario. You have the media on your side to tell the story. What could go wrong?
1) Witnesses might see that they were not planes & report it.
Well this has actually happened, but it seems that nobody takes any notice. The myth of "thousands of witnesses" to a big plane strike keeps getting trotted out on the basis of a circular assumption. "Because big jets were there, then people must have seen them - because people saw them, that proves they were there."
Clearly the perps thought about how to minimize the problem of contrary witness reports, and came up with a simple but effective plan.
This problem is easy to minimize. The first strike happens, and because the object is small and fast and unexpected, no-one is too sure what it is, or whether they saw it correctly. A few witness reports go to air reporting missiles or small planes or no craft at all, but there is only an 18 minute window for this to occur before the whole world sees a big jet live on TV - using commercially available real time animation technology. This distracts the media from interviewing many witnesses to the second strike, because everyone is fixated on the video replay. Those few witnesses who might get a moment with the media, then lack confidence in what they saw, because once again, the object was small, fast and unexpected. Seeing the TV replay - which was instantly available - would make most people think that they just didn't see it properly. The few who remain unshakable in their belief that it was not a large plane are easily shouted down and drowned out by the endless replays. In addition the airlines release a statement saying that they've lost two big jets and any witness dissent is *instantly* - the moment the second strike happens - marginalized almost to the point of oblivion.
This is not speculation. Read through the transcripts of broadcasts as they unfolded between about 8.47 and 9.30 and you will see that this is *exactly* what happened. From the moment the second strike occurred, anyone who tried to say that it was not a large jet immediately had a TV replay shoved in their face.
What little witness evidence was gathered in the brief time available between the two strikes was not enough to do any real damage, and everything after that was corrupted by everybody having TV replays of the second jet shoved in their face as soon as they opened their mouths.
In that brief period between the two strikes, there was only one witness who said a large jet - and that just happened to be the vice prez of CNN, which of course is a major player in the scam - just as pivotal as the govt.
So we can see that the problem of contrary witnesses, while a minor inconvenience is easily overcome with some good planning

Saying that there were no planes on 9/11 is absolutely ridiculous and ruins the credibility of plausible theories regarding 9/11!!!

There is SO MUCH evidence that proves planes were used in the attacks. Enough with this B.S.!!!

If there was any foul play on 9/11 it was that the administration knew about the attacks before hand and allowed them to happen in order to further their agenda.

That's pretty funny considering I don't see "737" written on it anywhere. Do you honestly think you can come on a forum and spew stuff like that without proof? Show proof of your theory or stop wasting space, thanks.

The burden of proof is on you my friend, you are the one posting a picture saying it is a 767 engine.
Good luck with that.

You are the one who said that is a 737 engine. The burden of proof is on you. You can't tell someone else to prove what they say is true and not have to prove what you say. If that was the case then I could say that it was an engine off of a lear 35 and you would have to accept that because you couldn't prove what you said to be correct.

Once again with the "tin" air. We don't have tin in our air.
All pictures and videos show a 767 hitting the buildings. Until you can show that they were 737's hitting the buildings and can prove it, you have nothing but a "claim" with no proof. And until you can match that crumpled pile of jet engine to one from a 737 vs a 767, you will again have no proof. All you have is your "claim" with no proof.
Then again, all videos and pics are fake to you, so your claims are automatically baseless and disinfo as you get to make up whatever you want without showing proof.
I'm also loving how the disinfo team likes to sit in their little chairs and refresh the thread over and over so they can hurry up and make another post with disinfo in it before anyone else get's to post.

Don't hate me because you got caught in a lie and got caught purposely spreading disinformation.
