On July 2, the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) announced that it would not reopen the investigation into the destruction of TWA 800. This was the Boeing 747 that was blown out of the sky ten miles south of the Long Island coast on July 17, 1996, killing all 230 people on board.
The TWA 800 Project, a team of former aviation investigators and scientists, had petitioned the NTSB to examine evidence that pointed toward a missile strike on the airline. Not surprisingly, the NTSB, which had invested four years of resources to prove some other theory, any other theory, chose to stick to its original findings that flammable fuel/air vapors somehow caused the explosion.
Books have been written on this subject – I co-authored one of them with James Sanders, First Strike – so readers can access the body of evidence for a missile strike on their own. An excellent point of entry is the documentary produced last year by the TWA 800 Project, simply called TWA Flight 800 and now available via streaming on Netflix.
One of the six whistleblowers profiled in that documentary deserves special attention. His name is Hank Hughes. At the time of the explosion, he was a senior accident investigator for the NTSB and was a member of the “Go-Team” that headed immediately to the crash site.
Hughes was responsible for determining whether or not any proposed scenario for the cause of the crash was consistent with the damage to the airplane interior. So disturbed was Hughes by what he calls an “egregiously conducted investigation” that he attached a detailed affidavit to the TWA 800 Project’s petition to re-open the investigation. What follows is a summary of that affidavit.

It was a cover-up by comrade klinton and we can't even get Boehner out of the bars long enough to face the current problems, so there's no chance they'll bring up something this old. Besides The Weeper doesn't want to join the others on Bubba's "kill list".
When you situate a Navy missile test range along a Commercial flight corridor, bad things happen.
They didn’t want to deal with the specter of an accidental Military shoot down.
Everything indicates the OKC bombing was in fact domestic terrorist.
All evidence indicates the Clinton adm. knew about the bombing probably up to a year in advance, began making preparations for the bombing, and put out false info to try and make it appear as if the “right wing extremist” had teamed up with a foreign govt, Iraq, to wage war against the US.
If Clinton had been successful in tying the “right wing extremist” to a foreign govt to wage war against the US, Clinton would have had the wet dream of the left, absolute power.
Clinton failed in his attempt.
The attempted car bombing in NYC in 2010, which the Obama adm. began making preparations for in 2009 and then tried to pin on the TEA Party, was a repeat of this strategy.
Had the Obama adm. been successful in pinning that attempted bombing on the TEA Party, Obama would have had pretty much absolute power.
Obama failed in his attempt.
One common denominator in the preparation phase of the two bombings is Hillary Clinton.
Another common denominator to the 2 bombings, both follow the Weather Underground playbook.
Or maybe because it's a 20 year old case?
My uncle was a mechanic for TWA, at the time, working at Kennedy. He has pretty much confirmed everything in this article....massive coverup.
And I think the Navy knows that. That's why the nearest Navy missile test range at the time was near Puerto Rico.
I have it on good authority that the Navy was in fact test firing in that area at that time.
If you're a terrorist looking to down a flight then why are you using a missile to begin with? What if you miss? In the pre-911 days it would have been easier to smuggle a bomb on board in the luggage that could have been set to take the plane down at any time. And your chances of success are much higher than shooting off a missile.
I think new presidents get briefed on what is REALLY happening ... (like ‘the football’ and stuff like that) and they find themselves with a threat .. “If you EVER say a word ... “
Good authority from whom? Pierre Salinger? In order to accept that one would have to presume that the Navy was so God awfully stupid as to shoot missiles into one of the most heavily trafficked air corridor in the entire world. What possible reason would they have had to do that?
No opinion much less a clue as to “how” Flt. 800 went in.
My view of government credibility in conducting an investigation was destroyed when the CIA produced video re-creation of the crash was released. It simply went against common sense to put forth that an aircraft could climb in the manner illustrated in defiance of the nose section being nothing more than an open hole.
“Seeing how long ago it was, many sailors would have retired or left by now. It seems like someone would have either leaked info or come forward.”
If you look at the recovered pieces, as well as the pieces that have since gone ‘missing’ there is one scenario put forth that actually causes it all to make sense. There WERE reports and alerts that some terrorist group was going to attempt to shoot down an airliner leaving New York. There was a window during which time an airliner would still be low enough to be hit by the missile. There were (an admission later forced under oath) an unusual number of Navy vessels in the area. These ships did carry some of the most sophisticated anti-missile missile systems available at the time. Some of it still in the testing phase.
Unfortunately the early anti-missile systems took some time to acquire the target missile, correct course, and score a kill. Given the evidence, the most plausible theory is that someone did fire a missile at the aircraft, the navy missile did intercept it and destroy it, but it did it in such proximity to the aircraft that the exploding fragments took down the aircraft. The wreckage is not consistent with an actual warhead strike, but it is very consistent with fragments.
Realizing the aircraft had been hit, everyone went into panic and lock-down mode. The bad guys escaped - maybe. There are several reports of men being taken off of a a small boat and handcuffed, but are never heard from again.
And yes, Clintoon was a mastermind of controlling public opinion. If this had any chance to make him look bad, it would have been buried.
There have been dozens of shootdowns since this incident, the vast majority in 3rd world hellholes.
I am a retired airline mechanic, and my specialty was internal fuel tank repair. I can say with 100% confidence the “center fuel tank explosion” theory is pure unadulterated bullshit concocted for the consumption of “low information voters”.. And it worked.
Do you know Carl Limbacker? Also known as “Carl from Oyster Bay” when he used to call in to talk shows. He was at NewsMax.com for a while, as an investigative reporter, then dropped out of site. Haven’t seen anything about him in several years.
Well... the whole point of that 'exercise' was to prove that they could shoot down a 'target' in a crowded air corridor. It wasn't JUST the US NAVY that was involved in the exercise either.
They tried to destroy the missile before it hit the plane, but were too late. The missile detonated just prior to hitting the plane.
And what is the name of this anti-missile defense system?
Ah, so now it's the Navy and who? The CIA? The NSA? And why does a branch of the military, which has been shooting down enemy aircraft with all sorts of guns and missiles through several wars and shooting down drones in practice for a whole lot longer than that, have to prove that they can shoot an airplane down off New York?
They tried to destroy the missile before it hit the plane, but were too late. The missile detonated just prior to hitting the plane.
Again, you want us to believe that the United States Navy, with all its resources, had to use a civilian target to practice on? Are all the rest of your branches as criminally stupid or just the Navy?
IF the US Navy had been involved in the downing of TWA 800 the Clintons would have eagerly used the incident to further denigrate the military. There would have been no coverup. It was undoubtedly a terrorist act most likely executed by the Iranians.
The United States does not have a givernment..
They have a SHADOW Giverment..
The republicans and democrats are the good guy, bad guy GAMBIT..
We don’t need a third party.. WE NEED A GOVERNMENT..
Me too...the bright orange projectile I saw looked as though it was coming from the south...maybe south east direction. That would have its origin in the ocean, not on land.
