TWA Flight 800 Investigators Claim the Official Crash Story Is a Lie
The Atlantic Wire ^ | 6/18/2013 | Dashiell Bennett

Posted on 06/19/2013 6:57:17 AM PDT by Menehune56

A new film claims the official government report on the crash of TWA Flight 800 in 1996 is an elaborate fabrication, but the most shocking part of the story is that charges are being leveled by some of the very investigators who put the report together. Six experts who appear in the film were members of the National Transportation Safety Board investigation team that concluded the crash was an accident, but they now claim they were silenced by their superiors. The movies, "TWA Flight 800" will debut on EPIX TV next month, on the 17-year anniversary of the crash.

USGov sponsored arms-deal to a ME client. That’s what I see happened.

Why is this “documentary” hitting now, 17 years after the crash?

Locusts show up every 17 years.

So perhaps do documentaries targeting Clintons running for President.

In any case, TWA 800 was obviously downed by a missile. Also, I can’t stand Hillary. So bring it on.

“Obama is pulling the Clinton skeletons out of the closet now, either as a . rning to stay in line, or to begin the process of destroying anything Clinton in the future. Big guns rolling out now. Nothing like owning the NSA/CIA/FBI/JD when you want to make the going rough for your enemies.”

5 years late, i think we’re seeing Limbaugh’s “Operation Chaos” on steroids.

No one in the administration wanted to defend allowing a US airliner to be destroyed 14,000 feet over the Hamptons by terrorist or terrorists unknown.

...or a joint NATO EXERCISE that was firing LIVE MISSILES.

Whatever the cause, the coverup was deemed necessary in order to protect the wealth of those in power. It's always about the money.

esp when they never looked for the 2nd guy, a darker skinned arabian, who convenitently wa allowed to leave town,
and, that the entire ATF group was not in the office that day,

and, that the truck bomb could not have damaged the steel columns as the pics showed....

...I asked her what her conclusions were concerning the cause, and she flatly stated that it was a Navy test gone terribly wrong.

Interesting. Two days after this happened a friend told me he was talking to a contractor who was on one of the Navy vessels in the area because they were testing some new weapons system and the contractor heard an officer on watch remark " My God we've shot down a civilian airliner".

Wrote it off as a conspiracy theory at the time. Amazing how a lot of these conspiracy theories ( IRS targeting Right Wing groups) are turning out to be true.

Brennan is also a Muslim.

Just sayin’.

Yeah, but will they pay up? I doubt it. The “Establishment” crowd on FR hasn’t changed who they support.

Bad guys shot missle from rented boat that was never returned. They carried a long case maybe carrying a missle. Bad guys were going to shoot down El Al plane, but that flight was switched with TWA 800 at taxi time. Military knew about the plans of bad guys to shoot plane. Bad guys fired, military intercepted missle but at point of impact just happened to be at point of plane engine. Oops.

These cockamamie conspiracy theories all suffer from grossly excessive weight.

E.g., in this one, the absolute limit is terrorists with a MANPAD trying to bag an El Al. As soon as you add in a missing rented boat and US prior knowledge and failed intervention, you end up with hundreds needing to be in the know. Yet nobody blows the whistle on the fiasco. Not possible.

BTW, one thing I find surprising is the lack of MANPAD attacks outside of war zones and third-world rat holes, given the number of them that have supposedly fallen into jihadi hands.

I still have the VHS tape I bought from C-Span of Billy Jeff’s (less than 10 minute) news conference about this incident + he was quite visibly shaken. He kept repeating that we “...couldn’t/shouldn’t rush to judgement....” etc. Sound Familiar???

.
There’s the really big flaw in your logic.

There were plenty of whistles blowing, but none were being listened to.

And don’t forget the testimony of the woman at the water co office that the Murrah windows were blowing outward.

Alternatively, it was a US Naval mishap, though this seems less possible.

It might explain the silence, though. If terrorists had done it, you would expect them to take credit for it. I've always felt like somewhat of a conspiracy nut for doubting the official investigation results; I look forward to this documentary.
