That's the key that decouples the whole "truther" train of speculation on this non-event. While they discuss AA Flight 77 at length as an abstract element in their fantasy, they avoid attempting to address the only logical question — where did the plane go if not through the Pentagon? Into the Bermuda Triangle?

Bazinga! Nice job! Some new information on the engine parts that I wasn't aware of, so thanks!
Bottom line is this, there's no evidence of a plane in any of the pics or videos that would even come close to proving it happened in court of law. The same can be said about the lack of ANY discernible plane debris in Shanksville. IMHO, an even more convincing case for govt conspiracy.

You know, Dulles is a major airport. Certainly there were security cameras all over the joint. Why don't we start from there instead of putting the horse before the cart?

The Pentagon roof is littered with surveillance camera's. And NOT ONE captured a video of the plane hitting the building? I bet the terrorists said, "hey, the Pentagon's camera's are only set up for capturing cars and people on video, so if we use a plane.....". Are you kidding me??
Former Chief Counter-Terrorism Advisor for the U.S. National Security Council Richard Clarke had a few things to say about the matter, as well. From page 131 of his book "Against All Enemies":
"We succeeded only in getting Secret Service the permission to continue to examine air defense options, including the possibility of placing missile units near the White House. Most people who heard about our efforts to create some air defense system in case terrorists tried to fly aircraft into the Capitol, the White House, or the Pentagon simply thought we were nuts."

No, let us view the basic premise, "a large airliner hit the Pentagon", given all the pictures of the wall before collapse please show where 5 tons of engine impacted the wall in two places. If you cannot do so then something else happened. What happened is not known to us. However it is then clear your government is lying to you.

"I'll ask the same question I've asked several times (with no answer) in this thread:
You honestly think it would be easier for the government to hide 64 people and an entire plane and then launch a missile mocked-up to look like the exact same plane, rather than just use the plane itself?"

Long time reader, first time poster. Mainly because I just cant sit back and watch anymore. I never considered myself a conspiracy theorist, but after looking into everything that happened on 9-11, I guess I have no choice but to be one now.

I have seen a very short clip from a helicopter posted on youtibe that shows something smaller hitting the pentagon. it has wings, yes but does not appear to be a 757. I am trying to find it and I will post a link to it.
I found it here:

And we are supposed to believe the government could cover all of this up?
There is so much truth in that. I mean, people talk of conspiracies with 9/11, but there are witnesses and proof for most of it. We cannot expect the government to give us all of the information we desire. While we may deserve it, that is not how things work no matter how hard we cry. There is NO way that many people could keep it a secret. Bottom line.

Very true, a President could not even cover up a blow job in the WhiteHouse, yet we are expected that 911 was planned with such detail, involving (according to the conspiracy theorists)

I looked at the comparison of photos contained at the Aerospaceweb.org website and found it very amazing that anyone would think that the aircraft part found in the Pentagon is the same as a Rolls Royce RB211.
obviously you also know nothing at all about jet engines. You are comparing a compressor with a exhaust turbine, 2 completely different components with a different purpose, so of course they look different!!
Actually, if you examine the picture you posted the bloke in it is fiddling with the exhaust turbine, which looks exactly like the part found....
Just more "truther" quality research!
