What is so hard to understand about a witness being told what they saw?

What are you talking about? Do you think the totality of 9/11 relys only on the witness of one person?
And, as you have been told so many times before, the official story did go to court quite successfully. Maybe you should have been there to cross-examine all the witnesses.

What are you talking about? Witnesses were not "told what they saw".
These witness testimonies would stand up well in court.

What do you call it when someone tell a witness that it was a 757 that hit the Pentagon.
Originally posted by gavron
I call it clarifying what model of airliner they saw hit the Pentagon. It does not change the fact that they saw an airliner.

A witness statement is only for what the witness saw and not what they were told. That is called hearsay.

Correct. So when they say they saw an airliner hit the building, then that is the truth....they saw an airliner hit the building.

A Boeing Model 757 is not an airliner? What is it then?

But the witnesses did not see a 757. They did not know what hit the Pentagon, they were told later it was a 757.

Yes, they did know what hit the Pentagon - a big jet airliner.

Just for giggles - please post that ONE witness statement that you are talking about. I don't feel like searching for it.
Maj. Lincoln Leibner
Maj. Leibner drove in and made it as far as the south parking lot, where he got out on foot. "I heard the plane first," he said. "I thought it was a flyover Arlington cemetery."
From his vantage point, Maj. Leibner looked up and saw the plane come in. "I was about 100 yards away," he said. "You could see through the windows of the aircraft. I saw it hit."
The plane came in hard and level and was flown full throttle into the building, dead center mass, Maj. Leibner said. "The plane completely entered the building," he said. "I got a little repercussion, from the sound, the blast. I've heard artillery, and that was louder than the loudest has to offer.

So your examination of "witness statements" is based on the in-depth examination of a statment made by somebody who admits he wasn't a witness.
