What's wrong with this picture?
Edited on Tue Jan-10-06 12:09 AM by DoYouEverWonder


Hint: It was taken 20 minutes too early.

According to the official story, the Pentagon wasn't hit until after 9:40 AM.


Edit: And if I could do math past my bedtime, I would know that 3 plus 7 = 10.

23. Odd, 40 minutes after the attack
and they think it's a helicopter?

30. The pentagon they said was a helicopter. Nobody would have seen the jet
fly in unless you were looking out that very side. Pentagon is way out in the country - no?

All they had was smoke.

29. Eyewitnesses can be unreliable: "Witnesses report helicopter crashed..."
Don't read too much into "witnesses" who report unverified stuff, unless you are a MIHOP zealot. What's this doing in General Discussion? There's a whole forum for this stuff.

2. Well I'll be. Someone ran a tape of the earlier attack and someone
Edited on Tue Jan-10-06 12:01 AM by applegrove
photographed it side by side with a later tape or a current one. See the tape with the words memorex on it?

If you look really close - you can see the landing on the moon too!

Proves nothing. Nice try Karl! LOL

We are more interested in questions of corruption & voting transparency & campaign finance reform!

spaceship floating over it and the same time too.

17. Perfect timing. I was in Halifax watching it live at the time. For us it
happened much earlier. We should have warned New York. Sorry!

18. Don't forget he said he saw the first plane hit
and "that must be one bad pilot." :shrug: Nobody has a video of the first plane I don't think.

27. Yes, I see it is Pacific Time... but that is still
kind of early to be calling it Terror, no?

31. The pentagon was blowing up. By then they had two Towers hit. they
knew after the second. I repeat - it is a tape of the original side by side with a tape of the pentagon from afar.

Put this in the right forum.

20. Thanks, I finally figured that out
It's still odd that they are reporting a helicopter hit 50 minutes later though.

25. What's really odd is that this got several votes.
Nice to know people are taking that whole "Greatest Page" deal seriously instead of acting like sheep in support of their cause du jour.:sarcasm:

22. It's grainy, the subject is off center and the lighting is poor
other than that not much else. :)

BTW, Pacific time is 3 hours off from Eastern Standard Time making the local time at the Pentagon 10:21 AM.

28. Who knows
same reason they have two TV sets one right next to the other, I guess.

I overslept a bit that day, turned on the TV and the news stations were confused about the first plane hitting, as to what exactly happened. Then, a couple of minutes later, I saw the second plane hit "live".

My brother saw the first plane hit in person, from about 6 blocks away, while he was walking to work.
