Apparently their journalistic ethics may have been trumped by the liberal ethics to protect a Democrat President's re-election chances...

I need a better explanation of:

"Despite a series of phone calls, Sanders could not persuade the technician to hand over the tape. His fear was palpable enough, however, to convince Sanders that he was telling the truth."

The video only needs be made public and then the technician has nothing to fear. He is only in danger if he keeps it quiet while keeping the tape. That's why this claim makes little sense in this article.

TWA FLIGHT 800 is the topic of Nelson DeMille's new novel.

Bump for later this morning; back to sleep, cats are fed.

That's why this claim makes little sense in this article.

Generally, I would agree with you. I threaten to kill you if you expose it and you name names, you might be safe. However, if I mention your pretty bride and little girl and your dog by name, you may not be as forthcoming. Especially if you believe that those threatening you have the means to make it happen and look unrelated and coincidental.

If any of you are looking for a great political thriller, Jack Cashill has written it. It is called:

2006: The Chautauqua Rising

For more info, go here: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0967235715/103-9483700-2527036

When I got to about page 30, I couldn't put the book down. It's fiction and Algore is in his second term as president. Lots of twists and turns and suspense. Everyone that I know who read it, loved it.

By George, I think you've got it!

Thanks.

There has been hideousness for centuries on the part of even the best governments.

However, during Dillbo and Shrillery's reign, new lows were reached in the land of the fadingly free.

OKC-911 CONNECTION ALERT. Please let me know by freepmail if you want to be put on or taken off this list. Thanks.

Jack Cashill ping! A snapshot of the media's role in the sticky web of government coverups.

How soon we forget.....

Not if the video holder feels differently from his perspective regarding his and his family's welfare.

Logic may not play near as much into it as fear.

And, there are forces who are quite happy to exact retribution regardless of whether the tape is in the public domain or not.

Easier said than done. Ever had the FBI on your ass? Ever had them slander you in front of your employer, your landlord? Trust me, it's not that easy.

And yes, I saw the video, so did how many others on the night FL800 went down. It was shown constantly on TV until 11:30 pm, then mysteriously disappeared. The missile flew right over a lady in a tacky cocktail gown.

Jack Cashill is a friend of mine, and the type of individual not prone to conspiracy theories. When he first mentioned to me the problems with TWA Flight 800 crash I was skeptical. However, Jack asked me to attend a session where both James Sanders and his wife would tell what has transpired in the case. The wife was a trainer of TWA's flight attendants. In the session both related how they have been strongly harassed by the FBI. The lady even had to take a year off and go into hiding. Still, I was skeptical until we came to the question and answer session of the meeting. A gentleman stood up and said, "I'm a retired 747 captain for TWA, and there are 42 additional retired 747 captains in this room. Every one of us are throughly convinced Flight 800 was not brought down by the center fuel tank exploding. If the center tank did explode the plane would have been mortally crippled. However, the way the government describes the crash we do not accept as being possible."

Shortly after that I asked a friend who is an aeronautical engineer and was in charge of maintenance for a large airline his opinion. He fully agreed that the government has to be lying.

Thank you.

Was the missile launched from the grassy knoll?

[kingsurfer]

I was in the states when this happened. I had to get on a flight a week after. I just knew someting was dodgy about TWA 800. It was fishy just like OKC bombing.

If you come out publicly with the tape and said you and your family are being threatened nothing much can happen. If it did there'd be investigations up the yeng-yang digging under every dark corner of the government. The last thing the FBI or CIA want...

Once it is out, there is nothing further gained by going after him.

Also, absolutely nothing prevents him from making copies and dropping them off at various news organizations anonymously.

BTW, I think I saw the video as well if its the one with streaks of light rising in the distance.

late on the night of the crash, editors at MSNBC had the tape on their monitors when "three men in suits" came to their editing suites, removed the tape, and threatened the editors with serious consequences if they ever revealed its contents

That does not surprise me in the least. That is BILL CLINTON'S MO! Clinton was THE PERSON most helped by covering up TWA 800.
