As did Stephanolopos shortly after the attacks of September 11, 2001.

There are facilities in the White House, not the normal situation room, which everyone has seen in the past, has seen pictures of. There is a second situation room, behind the primary situation room, which has video conferencing capabilities. The director of the Pentagon, the defense chief, can speak from a national military command center at the Pentagon. The Secretary of State can speak from the State Department, the President from wherever he is, and they'll have this capability for video conferencing throughout this crisis.

In my time at the White House it was used in the aftermath of the Oklahoma City bombing, in the aftermath of the TWA Flight 800 bombing, and that would be the way they would stay in contact through the afternoon.

You are so correct. If there was some sort of conspiracy to cover up a missile, how many people would have to be involved. Just as you said, you have everyone on board the ship or plane that shot the missile would be a possible witness (for the sake of argument, let's say 500 people.)
Then we have all the investigators (c200 people.) Of course, you also have all the people in government who know 'the truth' (another 500 or so). You then have the folks who were involved with the recovery (another 300.)

That leaves a guesstimate of 1,500 people with direct knowledge of what happened. Consider that each of those 1,500 people, even with the threats by the men in black told two people, who in turn told one person. We are now up to 6,000 people who 'know the truth' but are silent.

But we aren't done. Because there has to be men in black enforcers who know the truth. To keep 6,000 people quiet, you'll need at least 600 MIBs intimidating them. You then have the MIB's handlers, and their overseers. I could keep going and going and going...

Yes,
But their normal flight profile takes then down close to the surface (couple of hundred feet) so the terrain following radar (imagine how much success it had following the ocean) can image the terrain below. And for you sharpshooters out there, it uses inertal guidance till it gets over land, then establishes where it is relative to it's terrain database, then make corrections to close on it's target.

And we all know how good all government employees are at keeping secrets, right?

I'm not an aviation safety expert, and I have no idea if the experts are correct that a center fuel tank explosion brought down flight 800, but I do know what a government cover-up looks like, and this ain't no cover-up.

Has a Tomahawk EVER been fired at a moving target, let alone one 15,000 in the air, traveling at 400 mph?

"I suspect that much of the classified documentation that Sandy Berger stole from the National Archives and destroyed was related to this tragedy."

Suspect it dit. Here's some more Cashill background on that:

Yea the Tomahawk reference blows this all to he!!. There are many reasons why that would never happen, but for one thing, a Tomahawk is the size of a telephone pole and almost impossible to miss by many witnesses (not to forget the entire crew of a ship).

If an eyewitness were to come forward, now would be a good time, a safer time as well.

Sorry Mr. Cashill, Mr. Salinger is taking a dirt nap.

It was a missile. It wasn't one of ours. It was fired by a terror organization, as witnessed by the White House war room activity at the time.

Agreed. Note that there have been no repetitions.

Our guys have been on the job.

That is the first thing I noticed. It is like the tv newsreader that calls every rifle an "assault rifle".

Background setup: US sponsored NATO War games off the Atlantic coast. A small pleasure boat, painted to look militarily official in the waters near but not in the "no-go zone"; easily mistakable for either adventure-seekers or observers. Due to the time of day and the presence of the Coast Guard, not many witnesses around.

Scenario: A (CIA sponsored?) weapons sale to an international representative (Hamas? Isreal?, Iran?, doesitmatter?). Weapon being considered - high-tech, shoulder-fired missile. The seller points out and tells the buyer to try it out on one of the many target drones flying around. The buyer, being of low moral capacity aims it at an out-bound passenger plane and pulls the trigger.

If it ain't true, it would make good TV/cinema!

I remember reading here many moons ago that Jamie Gorelick visited Kjallstrom in New York and that the entire investigation changed course immediately afterward from foul play to equipment failure/spark/other nonsense. Messenger from Clinton says no terrorism here, CIA publishes a video explaining the equipment failure and the public is denied the truth once again..............

Not a subsonic Tomahawk. That's too slow to catch a jumbo jet, that's funny.

If the TWA800 crash was then caused by some spontaneous fuel combustion in the center fuel tank or some faulty wiring, according NTSB investigators, there would have been many more airplanes breaking up in flight.

The older some still flying McDonnell-Douglas DC-3 (or military C-47) used high octane aviation gas while Boeing 747 use Jet A-1, a kerosene grade. How come there were no DC-3's crash caused by this spontaneous fuel combustion?

“If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.” --Joseph Goebbels

Because everybody in D.C. does it...
in fact, every agency and every elected/appointed official has armies of cover-up experts covering every exposed @ss.
Its no wonder nothing ever gets done, because they're all so busy covering each other's @sses.
