Just to be honest with you, from that video what we really see is the nose of something white, i couldnt call it a missle anymore then i could call it a plane.. You will call it what you want to see it as though.

The "white streak" is obviously the nose of the plane, not smoke emanating from a "blue object." Regardless, the pixels that represent whatever the smoke would be coming from remain sedentary throughout the video. Obviously if it were a missile, as you suggest, the "blue object" wouldn't be in the same place a frame before the "smoke" appears, as the smoke appears, and then in the next frame. Think about it.

There are witnesses that say they saw the plane hit the pentagon and I don't think that they are lying. But a lot of people will never accept witness testimony about what they saw. I think the only thing that can resolve this situation is a clear video from the pentagon security cameras that show a plane crashing into the pentagon.
Heck, the only reason anyone is making much ado about the Pentagon footage is specifically because they want to use it to sow false paranoia over the Pentagon attack. Secretly these conspiracy people are dreading the possibility of any further footage being released as it'll force them to throw their beloved conspiracy stories into the trash.

Yes that is true, because it is a fake...
The pentagon is covered from all angles by 100's of CCTV camera's yet not one, NOT ONE, can show a plane, in fact only the footage from ONE camera has been released, why have all the rest been hidden? Why within moments of the event were the FBI out collecting ALL possible CCTV footage and NONE of it has been released?
What happened to the wreckage? What happened to the Engines? Why did the wings not damage the outside walls? Where was the tail of the plane? Where were the bodies and luggage? Why was the impact hole smaller than the aircraft? Why did it hit the only part of the Pentagon that was unoccupied? Why did it hit the part of the Pentagon that had the only records for the missing 2.4 trillion dollars?
Oh of course these are not sensible questions and I am just a conspiracy nut...
Lawsuits to Obtain Videos At least two plaintiffs have attempted to obtain videos seized by the FBI, using the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA). The first, documented at Flight77.info, began with a request to the FBI in October of 2004. The second, undertaken by the Judicial Watch, Inc. began with a request to the Department of Defense (DOD) in December of 2004. Following is a timeline of the requests and subsequent lawsuits. Entries relating to the second case are distinguished with dates colored gray. October 14, 2004: Scott A. Hodes, on behalf of his client Scott Bingham, sends a request to David Hardy of the FBI requesting any videos "that may have captured the impact of Flight 77 into the Pentagon on September 11, 2001". The request letter mentions videotapes from the Citgo Gas Station and the Sheraton National Hotel. November 3, 2004: The FBI replies to Bingham's request stating that their search "revealed no record responsive to your FOIA request". November 17, 2004: Hodes files an appeal of Bingham's FOIA request with the U.S Department of Justice (DOJ), citing evidence that the videotapes mentioned in the original request exist. December 15, 2004: Christopher J. Farrell of Judicial Watch, Inc. writes to James Hogan in the Office of Freedom of Information/Security Review of the DOD requesting that the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS), DOD, and FBI produce: any and all agency records concerning, relating to, or reflecting the following subjects: (1) Video camera recordings obtained by federal official(s) and/or law enforcement from a Nexcomm/Citgo gas station in the vicinity of the Pentagon on or about September 11, 2001. (2) Pentagon security video camera recording(s) showing Flight 77 strike and/or hit and/or crash into the Pentagon on September 11, 2001. (3) Closed Circuit Television (CCTV) video camera recording(s) obtained by any federal official(s) and/or law enforcement from the Virginia Department of Transportation ("VDOT") and/or the VDOT "Smart Traffic Center" on or about September 11, 2001. March 7, 2005: The DOJ replies to Hodes' November 17 appeal, admitting that it did possess records responsive to the request but that it could release the records because such a release "could reasonably be expected to interfere with law enforcement proceedings." January 26, 2005: The DOD advises Judicial Watch, Inc. that it possesses a videotape responsive to the December 15, 2004 request but declines to produce the videotape, citing U.S.C 552(b)(7)(A). March 8, 2005: Bingham's attorney files a lawsuit with the United States District Court for the District of Columbia stating that the FBI is in violation of the FOIA for "failing to adequately respond to plaintiff's FOIA request, including failing to adequately search for and release records that the plaintiff believes the agency is in possession of, and for failing to timely respond to the plaintiff's administrative appeal." April 18, 2005: The DOJ files a response to Bingham's March 8 lawsuit denying the plaintiff's request and asking the judge to dismiss the plaintiff's Complaint with prejudice. April 19, 2005: District Judge Paul L. Friedman orders the defendants to file a motion to dismiss or a motion for summary judgment in the case brought by Bingham on or before June 21, 2005. June 10, 2005: The DOD denies Judicial Watch's administrative appeal, claiming that the video is exempt as part of an ongoing investigation involving Zacarias Moussaoui. August 1, 2005: Jeffrey D. Kahn, an attorney for the DOJ's Civil Division files a 23-page MEMORANDUM OF POINTS AND AUTHORITIES IN SUPPORT OF DEFENDANT'S MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT. Scans of the document are posted on Flight77.info. August 29, 2005: Hodes files a Memorandum of Points and Authorities in Support of Plaintiff's Opposition to Defendants' Motion for Summary Judgment and a STATEMENT OF FACT ON WHICH THERE EXIST A GENUINE ISSUE TO BE LITIGATED in response to the DOJ's motion for summary judgment. September 9, 2005: Kahn files a REPLY BRIEF IN FURTHER SUPPORT OF DEFENDANT'S MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT September 9, 2005: Special Agent Jacqueline Maguire of the FBI's Counterterrorism Division files a DECLARATION describing her search for records responsive to Bingham's FOIA request. Maguire admits to determining that 85 videotapes in the FBI's possession are "potentially responsive" the request, that she personally viewed 29 of the tapes, and that she located only one videotape that showed the impact of Flight 77 into the Pentagon. Maguire also refers to "one videotape taken from a closed circuit television at a Doubletree Hotel in Arlington Virginia," but states that it did not show the impact of Flight 77. September 26, 2005: Hodes files a request seeking "copies of 85 videotapes in the possession of the FBI described in the declaration of Special Agent Jacqueline Maguire dated September 7, 2005. October 20, 2005: The DOJ sends a letter to Hodes claiming that the requested material is exempt. October 24, 2005: Hodes appeals the DOJ's October 20 claim that its material is exempt. February 22, 2006: Judicial Watch, Inc. files a lawsuit in the United States District Court for the District of Columbia seeking declaratory and injunctive relief against the Department of Defense for its refusal to disclose records sought under the FOIA request. May 5, 2006: Judge Friedman orders the defendants to show cause on or before May 26, 2006 why their motion for summary judgment should not be denied as moot, noting that the criminal proceedings against Moussaoui have ended. May 16, 2006: Judicial Watch obtains two videos from the DOD, and posts them on their website. The site is down for about half of the day due to demand. September 15, 2006: Judicial Watch announces the release of video from CITGO gas station. 3 The video consists mostly of views of the interior of the gas station and does not appear to capture the attack. December 2, 2006: Judicial Watch obtains a video recording from the Doubletree Hotel in Arlington. The video, which does not include a view of the Pentagon's facade, shows an explosion but does not capture an approaching jetliner. 4

Not really. There will still be people who wouldn't accept any Pentagon video footage even if it were released. Photographs and eyewitness accounts of the Germans slaughtering civilians are common as water and yet there are people who'll still insist the holocaust is fake. We have warehouses of footage and photographs of the space program and yet there are people who'll still insist the moon landings were faked. Two planes hit two towers in downtown Manhattan where 100,000 saw it and yet there are people who'll still insist the planes were holograms. When these conspiracy people zealously want to believe in their conspiracies so strongly, there isn't a single thing on the face of the planet that will convince them rationally otherwise.
Heck, the only reason anyone is making much ado about the Pentagon footage is specifically because they want to use it to sow false paranoia over the Pentagon attack. Secretly these conspiracy people are dreading the possibility of any further footage being released as it'll force them to throw their beloved conspiracy stories into the trash. It's the same way all these Bible thumpers are praying for Jesus' second coming but in actuality they're terrified of it ever happening because they know a lot of fake preachers, con artists, and choir boy molesters hiding behind the church are gonna catch a lot of whoopass.

And no I did not see the wreckage of a plane, I saw a hole, I saw no damage to the walls at ll from where the engines would of hit, in fact where the wings and engines would of hit, even the windows were not broken, strange considering these engines weigh several tones and unlike the fuselage of a plane will not crumple upon impact. There were no bodies, the black box recording have never been released
And please for our reference, show examples of commercial aircraft crashing anywhere in the world where ALL the wreckage disappeared, where the engines were not found, where there were no bodies, in fact it has only ever happened twice in history, oddly enough this was both on the same day, the 9th of September 2001, just as trying to show how skyscrapers collapsing from a fire, only ever happened on one date 9/11

Your grasp of technology is astounding.
www.nationalreview.com...
the long and short of it is that the multiple layers are simply artifacts of the means by which the birth certificate was digitized and archived. If it was the case that somebody photoshopped or altered the image, they would have to have no brains to export it with the multiple layers still intact, and even if he did overlook this, the multiple layers would correspond with various elements on the page, not each be random chunks of document.

You are aware that the camera in question was a SLOW SCAN - it was designed to record only like 1 frame a
second unlike normal camera speeds of 24-30 frames/second
At such a slow frame rate any motion will tend to be jerky and blurred especially for something as fast as
a jet airliner approaching at 500 mph
