Hello. Let me first introduce myself. I am an avid enemy of conspiracy theory. Anytime I hear "the government is ..." the walls go up .. I dont want to hear it. Most of these people are paranoids and misled naives.

HOWEVER... I started into the loose change 2 video with my usual skepticism, prepared to take pot shots at yet another paranoid delusion - but in the end, I found myself gripped by the vast number of discrepancies, and aparrent mistruths. I found the entire thing quite consuming, and have spend the last 36 hours looking for [supporting/debunking] relevant information.

First off, argue if you will, but the cruise missile idea is way off base. Its simple math. a 2' diameter missile is not going to make a 16' or 6' (6' was a typo?) pentration hole. The holes in the walls of the pentagon are far too uniform to be blast created, they are definately penetration holes,.. but it wasnt a missile. I doubt even the MX missile is that big, and according to the specs for the cruise missile, it is just over 2' in diameter. As for the rest of the pentagon issue, I agree. I would especially like them to explain what could have happened to two 6 ton engine casings.

On to flight 93. Your site has a link to a news article stating that 93 had landed safely and was evacuated. Of course, Id love to read that, so I had a look, and to my dismay it had been removed. With a small prodding at the waybackmachine, I came up with this: http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://http:/...al/story14.html

According to the way back machine, that article remained on their news site until oct 10, 2004 - three years and one month later. Now it has been removed with a note "factually incorrect". Somehow, they are going to have a hard time convincing me, that a TV News station is going to leave incorrect reporting, intact, and unedited for over 3 years on their website, before finally deciding to remove it, if in fact, it WAS just simply "factually incorrect".

And a question .. has anyone actually found any other source, than the FBI site, to show that bin laden in fact IS left handed?

I appreciate your honesty and wanting to look into more things, it is great when people actually can get past the "no the gov wouldnt do this" and look at the evidence so I applaud you for this,
I am sorry I dont have an answer to your question some say that it is a I am new to the "truth movement" only 2 months and am still learning things, I stick to two most important things, where is the plane in all the pictures of flight 93 taken in Shanskville ? and WTC7 how oh how? Have fun researching you will learn that your world view is now going to be completely different....

First the only thing I really had issue was the part about a B-52 hitting the Empire state building. It was a B-25 in 28, 1945 some 10 years before the B-52 first flew. (http://www.withthecommand.com/2002-Jan/NY-empireplane.html ), The B-52A first flew in 1954, and the B model entered service in 1955. A total of 744 B-52s were built with the last, a B-52H, delivered in October 1962. Only the H model is still in the Air Force inventory and is assigned to Air Combat Command and the Air Force Reserves. (this issues was addresed on the website)

The first of 102 B-52H's was delivered to Strategic Air Command in May 1961. The H model can carry up to 20 air launched cruise missiles. In addition, it can carry the conventional cruise missile that was launched in several contingencies during the 1990s, starting with Operation Desert Storm and culminating with Operation Allied Force.

While I would agree that it may not have been a cruise missile that hit the pentagon but a AGM-86C Conventional Air Launched Cruise Missile could have easly made the hole, it was not a Boeing 757.

But you can’t say that is was not a Cruise Missile based solely on the fact that they are 2” in diameter. It’s the warhead that does the damage. A 2x2 block of c4 will make the same hole.

This would explain the small plain people saw and the small engine and C-130 that was reported in the sky (although I am not sure this could be launched from a C-130. Take note to the contractor.
