Well here is a definition of the word shill:
2. a person who publicizes or praises something or someone for reasons of self-interest, personal profit, or friendship or loyalty.
We know he's making money and that he's supporting the official story while making false claims about "thoroughly" considering the truth movement. CIT made that pretty clear in the debate. He is therefore, by definition, shilling for the official story.

'Crushed' is a bit extreme. I saw an author unprepared for the CIT silliness. He wants money and they want attention. The CIT theory is pure nonsense based entirely on guesses about the final track of the airplane. No airpane flew away from the Pentagon. Witnesses saw it strike. CIT has no theory about how thousands of gallons of hydrocarbons were smuggled into the Pentagon and by whom. They have no good explanation as to why any plotters would bother with such a complicated plan. A last second pull up at the speed the plane was travelling wouldn't happen too smoothly at the altitude of the aircraft.
These clowns have no credibility and drag out their same, tired, old stuff whenever they feel attention deprived. My theory is that CIT is testing the gullibility quotient of the public to determine just how many people can be fooled by their Rube Goldberg theory.
He was crushed man. He was an author who made outrageous claims and who fell at the first hurdle.
Where are you getting the "thousands of gallons of hydrocarbons" from??
You actually believe that the alleged manouevre at cruise speed and full "penetration" into the first floor would have been a doddle??
Through here?

You're asking me to speculate on the actual op itself. I could do that or I could stick to what we actually know.

I didn't know CIT went down there and showed people who weren't at the scene pictures of planes flying overhead and ask them what route the planes took?!

You're making speculatory claims as fact.
The smoke was mainly from the generator. There were also two cars ablaze.
Do you understand yet?

Here....this video shows quite clearly why Craig Ranke is a fool, and his ridiculous "theory" is trash:

You know what? Fair enough. You make a good point. So, I secede my previous statement. According to the definition you gave you are absolutely right.
And again, like I said before, I do think Craig Ranke won the debate.

"You're making speculatory claims as fact." The generator and two cars couldn't have produced the fireball and the amount of smoke from burning fuel.
What did happen to the plane, anyway?

The ASCE report claimed that only 15% of the alleged fuel load made up the fireball.
I've posted images showing the generator smoke (and from the cars) and the facade being extinguished.
What else should I show you?
Yes there was a fire inside but that doesn't necessarily mean that it was fueled by jet fuel. What we do know is that the smoke seen in the first hours was mainly produced by the generator. End of story.

The directional damage path is off in that video.
????
The direction of damage has been shown clearly in the Pentagon Building Performance Report
There were NO actual witnesses to the "North of Citgo" path. Craig Ranke and his delusions come out of his butt, and he had to selectively cherry-pick, and coach with leading questions in order to get the *results* he desired. The actual witnesses (including the pilot and crew of the Minnesota Air National Guard C-130) saw the true path of the jet, American 77.
Here, Mike Wilson compiled a 3-D computer animation, based on the known damage path, and the facts:
Purdue University created a simulation, using super computers:
And of course, there is the on-board Flight Data Recorder (FDR). This is the record of the entire flight, the video begins when the jet taxis into position for take-off at Dulles. It stops just moments before impact, because the final portion of the info was garbled.....this video was made by NTSB as a preliminary version, because so many were clamoring to see it. The last moments of data have subsequently been deciphered:
Craig Ranke is a fool, and attention whore......
And, as with Purdue he neatly squeezes the 170 odd feet wingspan (at an angle) into that hole without addressing the extremities.
Particularly the 40-50ft vertical stabilizer.
"It stops just moments before impact". Which is why it has no bearing on the NOC testimony.
The government claims that the voice data recorder was damaged during the crash and that no usable data was retrieved from it. If true, this would be the first time in aviation history that a solid-state data recorder was destroyed during a crash.
In its report on the CVR, the NTSB identified the unit as an L-3 Communications, Fairchild Aviation Recorders model A-100A cockpit voice recorder; a device which records on magnetic tape. The NTSB reported that "The majority of the recording tape was fused into a solid block of charred plastic." No usable segments of tape were found inside the recorder.

Overstatement, and not really factual.
Did you watch the NTSB video? You can clearly see that the airplane is in a position at the end of that data reconstruction that is well south of the (former) CitGo gas station.
The path it took was indicated by the downed light poles. A tree that was topped. The damage patter inside the Pentagon itself. Et cetera......
The last "bits and bytes" of code from the FDR were properly read by a gentleman named Warren Stutt.
