On July 17, 1996, TWA Flight 800, a Paris-bound 747 out of JFK, blew up off the coast of Long Island. It seemed somehow fitting that James Kallstrom, the public face of the FBI investigation into the plane's destruction, would die two weeks before the 25th anniversary. As a patriot, a Vietnam vet, and an outspoken critic of all things Clinton, Kallstrom once held promise as the insider most likely to come clean. He never did.
As to my own involvement with this story, until the evening of February 23, 2000, I was as naïve as a CNN anchor. Before that evening, I would have dismissed out of hand anyone who dared suggest that elements of the FBI and CIA would conspire with the White House and the New York Times to cover-up the cause of so public a disaster.
February 23, 2000 was the night my education began.
Earlier that evening I had listened with some interest at a Kansas City country club as investigative reporter James Sanders spoke about his inquiry into the 747's fate. At a dinner afterwards, I found myself sitting next to James's wife, Elizabeth. A sweet and soft-spoken woman of Philippine descent, she filled me in on the personal details. At the time of the disaster, she was a trainer for TWA. She had been a flight attendant for some years before that.
Of the 230 people killed on that ill-fated flight, 53 were TWA employees, many of them Elizabeth's friends. At one of the numerous memorial services, Elizabeth introduced James to Terry Stacey, a 747 manager and pilot who was working on the investigation.

Who on this flight needed to be arkansided?
Maybe nobody. It was probably just simple incompetence.
I was always pretty sure the Navy screwed the pooch or a terrorist with a stinger took it out and it was covered up.
There is no limit to the crimes of the Clinton Cartel.
They must have had some pull over Kalstrom. Threatening his wife and daughters.
Early after the crash I was glued to the TV, they ran footage of the radar image showing the missile strike, it only aired once. I knew from that point on the rest of the story was a lie.
I don’t exactly know when my education began, but I am so cynical of government, that if a government agent tells me the sky is blue, I will go outside and look at the sky, to see if he is telling the truth.
“Who on this flight needed to be arkansided?”
There was in fact someone that needed killing but at 70 I no longer remember who it was.
I’ve said for years that IF TWA Flight 800 was brought down by a missile, it was most likely an accident and the U.S. military was almost certainly involved.
I was also glued to the TV.
We know only what those in charge want us to know. Meaning that we cannot trust what they do tell us. Everything that is put before our eyes on the official channels is what they are telling us to believe.
Only rarely do we see past that into the real truth. We are still waiting for the real truth about TWA 800, JFK and covid.
Incompetence? The idea that a ground to air missile launch can happen due to incompetence seems much more far fetched then it being done intentionally.
Heck — look at NASA, for heaven's sakes. Out of the agency’s fleet of five space shuttles, two of them were destroyed in catastrophic failures. You wouldn’t accept that kind of a failure rate in a toaster oven or a pocket calculator.
I flew on TWA 800 a dozen times to Paris prior to this crash. Luckily I wasn’t on it this day.
“I don’t exactly know when my education began, but I am so cynical of government, that if a government agent tells me the sky is blue, I will go outside and look at the sky, to see if he is telling the truth.”
Yes, x 1000 and I think it is a very good thing.
Doubtful.. You can’t cover up a story like this for 25 years. If the Navy was involved someone would have come forward by now.
How did they have pull over the hundreds of sailors on the ship that Cashill believes shot down flight 800? I was in the navy at the time, so I'm quite curious.
bfl
There were a few people on board some country’s Deep State might have wanted dead. Including ours.
But to commit mass murder to do it...?
Then again, Deep State may have just had the president of Hauti murdered, so who the heck knows anymore.
