Nope, not buying it.
I've seen all of the 'arguments' put forth regarding the so-called "fake" phone calls, and what is in little doubt is that very clever, and intransigient people who call themselves part of the so-called "Truth Movement" will unashamedly twist and spin ANY source they can get their hands on, in order to alter the perceptions that many other people, who are pre-disposed in the FIRST place towards the "TM" bias, will accept, virtually without question or rational enquiry.
I will sometimes refer to the second group ( present company excepted, of course ) as somewhat 'gullible', since it IS very easy to sway them, even on the flimsiest of pretenses.
This is why, in a nutshell, I now feel embarassed for what is called the "TM" in general. Too much "noise" out there (for what reason, I haven't the foggiest notion, anymore...) that keeps polluting any real efforts to cut through the nonsense.
Besides, there is lacking a singular definition of the so-called "Truth", a srelates to this general topic.
It has become a sort of 'free-for-all', and just about any Tom, Dick and Harry will chime in with a 'personal' pet opinion or "theory", thus ruining it for the serious so-called "TM" types.
That is the view from the sidelines, at least, as I am observing and interpreting the action.
Can you say why you think a person can use a mobile in a plane?
Now can one call collect from the airfone?

Well apparently there were no airphones on that plane and she did not call from her cell, that much is clear. So who called her husband?

All those phone calls were most likely totally bunk. Or at least that is the response you will hear from most here. I tend to agree actually.

One could say the whole 911 issue is distasteful but, there are conditions, incidents and so on that demand scruitny regardless of one's moral bearing or compass feeling it has been disgusted by whatever.
FBI & AA doubt any calls happened. Or at the very least Ted was duped. So with that, all of you whose feelings get hurt by folks like me asking questions, just need to pull your britches up tighter and deal with it or log in over at the McDonalds Happy Meal forums.
[color=gold]BREAKING 9/11 NEWS: FBI Says Barbara Olsen Did Not Call Ted Olsen. Bush Solicitor General LIED!!
Now we know why it didn’t smell right. It was a lie. The FBI has reported that no such call between Barbara Olsen and Ted Olsen ever took place on 9/11/2001.
But, as Griffin rightly points out, in this interview, there is no “EVIDENCE” of their existence.
Which also reveals that mis-information shill, Popular Mechanics, in their 9/11 interview on the Charles Goyette Show months ago, lied when they told us there was DNA evidence of the so-called Muslim hijackers. LIES, all lies.
When will corporate media stop their participation in a criminal cover up? If the former Solicitor General lying to America by creating a complete fabrication he spread around the world through corporate media, is not a story worthy of CNN, FOX, ABC, NBC, CBS, Democracy Now, The Nation, Rolling Stone, PBS, NPR, and all the other fourth estate . . . then they have no right to refer to themselves as media.
They should forever in the future refer to themselves as “The Propaganda Ministry.”

Well the phone calls from Barbara Olson to Ted Olson also involved AT & T operators and a Dept of Justice secretary Lori Keyton. She confirmed to the FBI on 9/11 that she had spoken to Barbara Olson that morning and transferred the calls to Ted Olson.
There was also a call from Renee May on flight AA 77 to her mother telling her of the hi-jacking and asking her to inform American Airlines, which she did.
It is all very well describing the phone calls as "totally bunk" but are the AT & T operators, DOJ secretary Lori Keyton, and Mrs May all in on it ? If so many small bit players are " in on it " is it remotely possible that silence could have been maintained for nearly 9 years ?
an AA spokesman wrote: “American Airlines 757s do not have onboard phones for passenger use.” To check on the possibility that Barbara Olson might have borrowed a phone intended for crew use, they asked, “[A]re there any onboard phones at all on AA 757s, i.e., that could be used either by passengers or cabin crew?” The response was: “AA 757s do not have any onboard phones, either for passenger or crew use. Crew have other means of communication available.”
