If it's magnesium, that could indicate a bomb using some sort of old-style explosive--probably home-made gunpowder.

But here's the thing: if it was an explosive device, how come when the cockpit area was analyzed the crew wasn't dead from the blast wave of a real explosion? We do know that the from the recovered cockpit voice recorder the crew tried to control the plane all the way to the point of impact.

I knew someone who died in the Sioux City, Iowa crash. The pilot and his crew performed a miracle to save lives.

"It was an act of terror period."

Is it your contention that a spark cannot cause a tank explosion?

If so, you are quite wrong.

Therefore, if it could have been a tank explosion, why do you contend it was act of terror?

If the underwear bomber had succeeded would we ever have known about it?

Yep. Somebody blew it up.

Never mind the underwear bomber, what if Shoebomber-I was sitting right over that tank?

Why would anyone believe the report from the Clinton administration. He lied about everything.

Nope.

Witnesses say they saw corkscrewing action, one witness was even an airborne military chopper pilot right next to where it happened. A fishing trawler even found a MANPADS ejector can.

A journalist who managed to get a swatch of fabric from one of the seats was nearly thrown into jail.

Multiple witnesses reported the FBI intimating that they were nuts, or later changing their notes regarding witness reports.

The Clinton re-election theme was, “peace & prosperity” and TWA 800 didn’t fit that theme, so they just shoved it aside.

Very interesting. Exactly the same as the downing of TWA 800.

Will we ever know the truth?

They'll never admit it. They'd never risk being outted as the liars they are. No telling how many other incidents have happened that we has been foolish enough to believe weren't terrorist attacks.

Cashill just wrote a new piece about TWA800, based on new video of Kerry and Stephanopoulos calling it a terrorist attack.

Semtex residue covering a ten row section of the plane's interior might be a good clue.

people here just want flt 800 to be a terror attack despite there was never any evidence of it

I guess you believe the police conducted a dog-training exercise with leaking bags of semtex in St. Louis? Because that's the official story behind the explosives found all over the aircraft.

The amount of piracy on the high seas proves that. We feel secure because crimes against our person are unlikely.

The plane may have corkscrewed on it’s way down, so what? The journalist received the cloth swatch from someone working on the case and had no business touching it. Do you have a picture or citation for the MANPADS canister?

Thanks MindBender26.
Sept. 2, 1998, killing 229 passengers and crew. The plane carried a Saudi prince, a relative of the former shah of Iran and high profile UN officials. A half a billion dollars of diamonds and gems were also never found.

One of what people? The explosive residue is a matter of official record. Do you even know how it was explained away?
