I've had Truthers tell me that the insurance companies were in on it, which is why they paid out. Which to me seems a bit like a bookmaker knowing a racehorse is set up to win but still paying out on it.

Quite pathetic, actually...
skewed YOUR apparent perception of the reality....
YOU DO NOT KNOW HALF of it!!! (Or, even one-eighth...)
silly "conspiracy" theory....
those who FOIST the "conspiracy theory" upon the gullible and naive.
those who fall for "9/11 conspiracies".....or, so-called "truth"....have been HAD!!! Big time.....
Anyone notice a pattern here?

In reality, Hani's flight instructors have said that they have no doubt that he had enough skill to hit the Pentagon...just as long as he did not have to worry about the takeoff.

Didn't recognise you with the new avatar at first, but as soon as I started reading your post it became painfully clear...
Glad you can laugh so hard (and make yourself look pretty darn soulless in the process), but seriously - do you expect to garner support for the OS by writing in the manner you do?
You work so hard to support the lies (I mean, the OS) - but why? Your acerbic manner cannot possibly be of benefit in bringing people over to your side of the fence...!? If you support the OS, could you not find a less confrontational and patronising way to put your POV across?
In any case - why stand up for the devious b'stards behind 9-11 in the first place..? It's painfully clear (especially to a man of your intellect) that 'someone' carried out a "devious b'stard act of high treason" with all their "devious b'stard money and resources" to cover it up for ("devious b'stard") decades afterwards. And that 'someone' certainly wasn't a scruffy little man living in a cave halfway across the world...
For goodness' sake.
NB - Mods, please go easy on me. I'm not accusing Weedwhacker of anything, just asking questions about the way in which he posts such mocking comments, which, according to my interpretation of the matter, is entirely detrimental to the promotion of his 'cause'...*
(* cause = to boost support for the OS of 9-11)

I was in the military for 20 years and 13 days... and I don't believe it happened. I beat the officer by 13 days, which makes my argument more valid. All he did was fly fighter jets what make's him an expert?

Good find. Thanks for the read.
Can I ask a question though. The thing I don't understand about this demolition conspiracy theory is.... why is it so important to make the buildings fall? I mean, 4 hijacked planes, people killed.... HELL one plane to the Pentagon is enough to start a war.
What is the significance of complicating the situation and trying to make the buildings fall? The government could care less about public support, if indeed, a terrorist organization just pummeled a plane into the Pentagon alone.
There is always someone "proving" the fact that the buildings could have fell, and then someone right next to him able to "prove" that it is impossible under the set circumstances.
"Despite Hanjour's poor reviews, he did have some ability as a pilot, said Bernard of Freeway Airport. "There's no doubt in my mind that once that [hijacked jet] got going, he could have pointed that plane at a building and hit it,"

Got a source for that incredulous bit of "reality"?
As I've explained in at least one prior column, Hani Hanjour's flying was hardly the show-quality demonstration often described. It was exceptional only in its recklessness. If anything, his loops and turns and spirals above the nation's capital revealed him to be exactly the #ty pilot he by all accounts was. To hit the Pentagon squarely he needed only a bit of luck, and he got it, possibly with help from the 757's autopilot. Striking a stationary object -- even a large one like the Pentagon -- at high speed and from a steep angle is very difficult. To make the job easier, he came in obliquely, tearing down light poles as he roared across the Pentagon's lawn.
"They'd done their homework and they had what they needed," says a United Airlines pilot (name withheld on request), who has flown every model of Boeing from the 737 up. "Rudimentary knowledge and fearlessness."
"The hijackers required only the shallow understanding of the aircraft," agrees Ken Hertz, an airline pilot rated on the 757/767. "In much the same way that a person needn't be an experienced physician in order to perform CPR or set a broken bone."
