Okay, I just saw the 'new' Pentagram/plane pictures. We're being punk'd

[Stinky The Clown]

They show damned little more than anything we've seen before. They do nothing to advance the tinfoilers' view and they do little to advance the opposite view.

Judicial Watch asked for these ages ago.

Bushco decided to release them **today** (blah blah fucking blah ... Moussaoui trial .... blah blah fucking blah).

Here's the essential truth as I see it:


* * * * * * * * * They add NOTHING to the debate. * * * * * * * * *


They perpetuate or start anew the debate. They get everyone's panties into new wads. They get the tinfoil all shined up. They harden those who see no conspiracy in their view.

But they add ...... nothing.

OH LOOK ...... OVER THERE ....... SHINY OBJECT ........

1. That's what it was alright

Just a flash of white. Didn't look like a plane to me. It came in awful low to the ground to be a plane.

[The Magistrate]

2. Indeed, Sir

They do not alter a thing.

A good part of the problem here is that people are in many instances not reacting to evidence at all, but hoping to find world-views validated, and bring to the thing conclusions and views formed in advance, which greatly conditions their assessment of available evidence.

3. Distraction.

time to argue about all this, taking a break from will/won't/when/rove, argue and talk and fight and distract distract distract. Oooooo, shiny object, oooo

[Catchawave]

4. Pentagon?

Boy oh boy, that plane was low, but they did recover the black box, right?

[Warpy]

5. No kidding.

There is no footage that would show anything. If it did, it would have been released long before now.

A plane traveling (very conservatively) at 440 feet per second is not going to show up on cameras that shoot a frame every 5-15 seconds as more than a streak, at best.

7. even CNN acknowledged today there were other videos

that were taken and locked up.

[katinmn]

6. There are, however, OTHER videos that were confiscated

and locked away. I would like to see ACLU go after those.

[Viva_La_Revolution]

8. JudicialWatch requested ALL videos

If I remember the wording on the website correctly (still can't get it to load) This is all they saw fit to release... even though it's already been on the net for years.

what a waste of time.

[Bucky]

10. I think the Mafia did it, aided by my wife....

Morgan Fairchild. Yeh, that's the ticket. Morgan Fairchild.

[katinmn]

11. Oh, don't you think the govt hid video?

Why do we have to use FOIA and wait 5 years to get even one?

[Stinky The Clown]

9. Some reporter who was in the Moussaoui trial said on MSNBC that

these add nothing and show nothing that's not already out there. He then went on to add (paraphrasing through my personal filter cuz I wasn't paying close attention) that this was just an inexplicable governemnt diversion.

12. What in the hell did that video have to do with Moussaoui?

[Stinky The Clown]

13. Da gubmint claimed they couldn't release this and some other materials

because they were 'evidence' in the Moussaoui trial.

Don't blame me. I couldn't even make this shit up if I tried.

[ladjf]

14. I wasn't blaming you. I was "dissing" the "gubment".

[primative1]

15. I expected as much

I wasted the time it took to view our great gift but couldnt find a single frame on the film that showed anything other than an explosion, let alone a plane. Did I miss something?
