The non-story a few weeks ago - that the terrorists have missiles capable of bringing down a plane - should be no shock to anyone. They’ve had them at least since TWA 800 was shot down.

..AS ANY KID WHO ever built an RC plane can tell ya, lose the nose, lose CC, PLANE GOES DOWN, not up
Yep, and since no one in the US acknowledged that and gave them or anyone else credit, but rather the Clinton crime family came up with a cover story to save Clinton's re-election, they then gave US the WTC attacks that culminated with 9/11.
Flt 800's somewhat similar to Benghazi before obama's re-election, but Benghazi was off shore and directed at whatever obama's getting US blamed for in Libya, Syria, etc.
Now that obama has been re-presidented, anywhere in the US is fair game and any sort of attack now. They got away with Benghazi, just like they got away with Flt. 800, does the last pattern repeat just like with Clinton?
OKC was serious, but that was just basic chemistry, same with the first WTC attack. Now that obama's probably not running again, I worry that there are no limits any more.
Not to put too fine a point on it, but we do live in a world awash in all sorts of bad stuff that got away from the Soviets, from Saddam, from Libya, etc. and was never recovered and we have an absolutely transparent border.
So comforting to reflect on all the ways that obama, Hillary and now honest John Kerry have been smoothing things with our friends and enemies around the world since 2008.
A shoulder fired SAM can't bring down a 747 the way TWA-800 blew up.
Nut-job Conspiracy Theory Ping!

With the likely equipping of terrorists with MANPADS via the Libya/Benghazi debacle, you'll be seeing more of this movie in the future. Bet on it.
RIP.
There were thousands of eye witnesses to JFK getting killed, and what really happened is still a secret.
Yes, but NOW we are openly and publicly providing antiaircraft missiles to terrorists in Syria.
Yep....
1. Do we have explosives chemical residue from any of the wreckage consistent with a bomb going off? Both C4 and Semtex plastique explosives leave behind a distinctive chemical residue after the explosion.
2. Do we have any warhead fragmentation pattern consistent with the explosion of the warhead from a MANPAD portable surface-to-air missile?
If these clues are not found, that rules out an act of terrorism in the loss of Flight 800.
When I read Nightfall, I was stunned by the ending. It’s a great book, & I re-read it several times over the years.
Yes it was. It made my head hurt. I read the threads and didn't dare offer an opinion. How the hell would I know what the truth was? The Navy shot it down accidentally, or it was a MANPADS system fired from a fishing boat by Arabs -- this was all pre-9/11 -- and the confusion and deception and creepy websites all had their own theories and motives. Impossible to follow, but I couldn't turn away.
One thing that's different now than from back in the time of TWA Flight 800 is that whatever these whistleblowers claim will be regarded as the absolute truth, and in fact probably IS the truth.
I haven't felt as disgusted and fearful of my own nation as I have in just these last few months. Hey whistleblowers in government, whereever you are! Might as well just come out with everything you know about everything and anybody! There's no better time than the present.
Yes, there was residue found in the wreckage. The ‘official story’ at the time was that flight 800 just so HAPPENED to have been used to train bomb sniffing dogs just prior to the flight.
Yes. Really.
A lot of us said bullsh!t at the time and were called tinfoil hat types.Typical.No lawsuits against Boeing over the gastanks.
I actually had a coworker who lived right under the flight path for that plane. Just so happened to be walking his dog and glanced up at a flash of light as it flew over. He said it looked like a flash of a small explosion and then the tail fell off.
Who to trust. Guy I’d known nearly a decade and hadn’t seemed wonky or off any of those years. Someone with lots of real life experience including past tour in the military.
Or, the official story. Less than 30m after the plane crashed they were announcing it wasn’t terrorism related...
Yeah. How’d they know that so fast.
