How Richard Clarke concocted the TWA 800 'exit strategy' ... and why

Why is W so reluctant to release Clintonian papers to reveal the truth of what happened? Seems to me it would be a way to insure no democrats in power for decades.

In fact, the Federal Aviation Administration did have an explanation. Its radar operators in New York had seen on their screens an unknown object "merging" with TWA 800 in the seconds before the crash...

Sorry, but I strongly doubt that Air Traffic Control radars would have noted the position of anything that wasn't transmitting a transponder code. To avoid clutter, 'skin paints' are supressed on ATC radars, or at least they were the last time I looked.

Wrong. Not always. Operator discretion. Primary targets are frequently allowed to paint by Center controllers since their traffic is less dense than TRACON.

This WND article focus is on Clarke's role. In the 9/11 theme, we should do some further focus on on the Islamist terrorist attack on an airliner Egypt Air 990.

I have heard the same thing, but I know from 100's of hours on PPI (plan position indicator) on ATC radar that most of the time more than a few miles from the radar, you can get a pretty good picture with with primary returns alone.

Typically, returns are thresholded at one square meter effective radar cross section, smaller targets are rejected. I know of at least one occasion on which we got more than 10,000 returns/scan from Canada Geese. (I see wise cracks in my crystal ball.) A stinger is probably comparable in size to a Canada Goose.

If Clarke and Clinton and Hillary had been completely HONEST
to the American public about the Islamic-crashed airplanes in the 90's
would Americans have been on alert on 911 and prevented at least one of the 911 atrocities?

Col. DONALDSON (r.i.p.) always said that TWA Flight 800 was a missile take down ...while we now know that CLARKE was busy obstructing justice in this case..!!!



ALOHA RONNIE has always asked:

.."WHY did TWA Flight 800 just have to go down the very night before CRAIG LIVINGSTONE was to testify on National TV, under oath before the U.S. Senate, that it was HILLARY who hired him as White House Security Chief to get FBI Files on Congressional Republicans...

...or protect her instead by pleading the 5th..?

.."Before this Jetliner Crash CBS Hourly Radio News had been telling America all day long that all eyes of the Nation were going to be focused on their TV Screens at 9:00 AM Washington, D.C. Time the next morning to see just what CRAIG LIVINGSTONE had to say.

.."Instead the next day Congress shut everything down out of respect for the lives lost in this Jetliner Crash ...with flaming wreckage floating on the surface of the Atlantic replacing CRAIG LIVINGSTONE on our TV Screens.


The Enemy is now Within...
and always has been.


NEVER FORGET

Thanks for the ping, Ronnie.

Well, well, well, Hat: This certainly goes along with my theory that Clarke is now pointing the finger because he's trying to hide/rationalize his own actions...../hat

The thing to ask here, since this article states that CLARKE was enmeshed with the CLINTONS, is why he felt the need to cover for them in the TWA Flight 800 Take Down Case..?

This REALLY pisses me off!!! I knew this guy and the clinton's were scum, I just wasn't sure how much?? To hide a terrorist attack is beyond politics, what else; Oklahoma??? He stole his money off the bodies of these and the bodies of 9/11.

Pray for W and The Truth

For lurkers, here's some Freeper research on: TWA800>

You can suspect what you want, but the ATC radar tapes were leaked from the investigation (by an insider ... WHY?) and they clearly show a fleeting return that lasts only a few seconds before vanishing, right at the time TWA 800 broke up. Right after the loss of electrical power to the plane, primary radar returns were recorded that had an average velocity of Mach 2. Read more.

They showed the radar images on the news didn't they?
