This is the Sofa King Podcast’s second episode on the events and conspiracies surrounding 9/11. In part one, we talked about the flights and jet fighters and focused largely on the twin towers falling. In this episode, we focus on the Pentagon attack and the destruction of Flight 93 over Pennsylvania.
First, flight 77 was said to hit the Pentagon on the morning of 9/11 after it been lost from all radar for a total of thirty-six minutes. However, this one is more problematic than the World Trade Center as far as the forensics not matching the official report. First off, the damage done to the Pentagon is inconsistent with what should have been done by a 757 flying at over 500 miles per hour. There is no evidence of fire in or around the building. There is no debris. And most mysteriously, the footage from 86 cameras which should have had eyes on the flight and impact were all confiscated by the FBI moments after the crash and have never been released to the public. We of course try to cover the angles on why all of this could happen, so listen in to hear our interpretations of this data.
Finally, we explore the doomed Flight 93. Much like the Pentagon crash, there is a baffling lack of evidence at the crash scene. In fact, it looks like no other major airline crash in known history. There is no fuselage, no wings, to tail, no landing gear, no tires, no engines, no seats, no bodies. Nothing but a hole in the ground and a lot of small debris that is said by multiple eye witnesses to be “smaller than a phone book.” Again, where is the plane? Where is the fire damage from jet fuel? If the jet fuel can burn hot enough to collapse the two towers, why is it not hot enough to burn a field and the Pentagon.
This is a very touchy subject, 9/11. We all feel horrible sorrow for those who died on that day, and respect for the first responders who put their lives in danger to help. But we also try to keep an open mind and look at facts more than just the official report. So what is our ultimate conclusion on what happened on this day, who was behind it, and how accurate is the official 9/11 Commission report versus the theories of the Truthers? I guess you’ll just have to tune in to find out!
