I have heard some from the tinfoil hat crowd try to say that the airliner that went down over Shanksville, PA..was shot down by a fighter jet Now, if that plane had
come closer to it's final destination, it may have been shot down by an F-16, but such was not necessary.
As Beeman said, until that point, almost all hijackings ended on the ground, and many were resolved with little or no loss of life, so why would the authorities expect
something different ? Even the passengers on flight #93 expected such an outcome; they didn't consider the "let's roll" option, until they received word about the WTC
from their loved ones, via cell phones .
These conspiracy theorists should be a bit ashamed of themselves, trying to spit upon the valiant actions of a few brave Americans.
Why they are so consumed with the idea that flight 93 was shot down, is hard to figure. Shot down or brought down (as it was) by courageous citizens, either way
goes toward proving that the plane was...hijacked.
Incidentally, no credible reporter has interviewed anyone on the ground in PA, that saw an F-16 shoot down the airliner ! Believe me; if the NY times or Washington Post
had something on Pres. Bush..they would use it ! Look what they did with "deep throat" and a scandal that was not near so grave !
Heather says, .."why should I have to prove the WTC was not destroyed as the 9/11 commission says it was ?" Simple answer; The commission many others say it happened
just as the 9/11commission said it did. So, as in any court of law, the "defense" of the standard explanation has presented it's facts..and they look very plausible !
So, now is her chance as the "prosecution" to present her case..warts, verifiable facts and all...gotta do it, or look like a "tin hatter" ! !
