Bill Clinton, near the end of the campaign, could not have it known that a shoulder fired missile took down an airliner.
The first report I heard was on CBS when they said that the Pentagon is reporting the crash of an airliner. That is the only time I heard the Pentagon mention it. Why would the Pentagon be reporting a civilian airline crash off the East Coast?
And...why would the CIA have produced that ridiculous animation....
In Washington speak, Gorelick is known as a “fixer”.
Flight 800 was at 13,700 ft when it exploded. The MANPAD with the highest range is the Stinger which reaches an altitude of 10,000 ft.
The U.S. Navy was undergoing pyrotechnic maneuvers on off the coast of New Jersey that evening. This was reported in the immediate hours after the explosion, and then removed and never mentioned again.
Coincidence?
Pierre Salinger immediately said that his informants stated that it was the US Navy.
