Everyone interested in this topic should go out and rent/buy the dvd called "911, in plain sight" it basically goes over all of this with some really good footage and fairly unbiased information, they present no conclusion just the evidence of "mistruths" about what we were told and other possibilities. I thought it was really well done, though the guy talking during the whole thing is kind of boring to listen to (I think he's the host of the radio talk show "The Power Hour".
Some things they mention that I havn't seen on here yet is the possibility that the plains were not passenger planes. Multiple witnesses close to the towers that reported seeing no windows on the planes.
There was also some live footage shown right after the first plane hit the tower (they were doing an interview with tom clancy) that shows a huge plume of smoke come from the bottom of the towers. This footage was never shown again on TV.
The one other good argument about the pentagon senerio is that the plane was supposedly a transcontinental flight, meaning there was a large amount of excess fuel on the plane when it hit. I think the number they gave was somewhere around 8,600 gallons. The fuel used in those planes has a BTU rate of something like 86,000,000 and if it had been ignited would have burned at around 3000 degress fahrenheit. A blaze like that would take a long time to put out. If for some reason it had not ignited, it would have called for a very large clean up as that much fuel is considered an environmental hazard.
Also, when the pentagon was initally hit by this "plane" the roof was still completely intact, it wasn't until later(not sure how long) that the building collapsed. The 757 is I think 44ft high and the pentagon is 73ft high. Unless the plane rolled into the side I am pretty sure there would have been some contact between the tail and the roof line. No damage was seen in those initial pictures (before it collapsed) to support a plane hitting it. Some of the windows above the hole made werent even broken.
There is a lot of other stuff in there as well, and they go into more detail about the stuff mentioned above, I just wanted to put in some of they key points incase you dont get to see it. I definately recommend watching it if you are interested.
Ignore any mis-spellings.. =P
Oh and if any of this is repeated, I'm sorry but I havn't gone through the whole thread yet... reading off and on at work, and am writing this during my lunch.
