If the Pentagon was hit by a missle:
1. We were attacked by a foreign threat who somehow had a missle and were somehow able to fire it at the Pentagon from the air. This means that they had either a helicopter (more likely) or a jet with missle firing capabilities (much less likely). The legistics of this possibility are astounding. Getting a helicopter isn't easy. Getting a helicopter where security is lax enough to get a missle launcher of some kind on is very difficult, even pre 9/11. Getting that helicopter near the Oentagon without being noticed is realistically impossible.
2. A domestic group or person (terrorist) attacked the Pentagon. Same legistics as the previous, but slightly easier to get a helicoipter.
3. The attack was allowed. Do you remember how long after the WTC crashes the Pentagon happened? It was long enough to scramble fighters. It was long enough for the FAA and NORAD to scramble the fighters to get to DC, NY, Boston, or any other major city in the area.
4. I dunno, maybe it was an attempted coup. Perhaps someone or some people who had access to NORAD, and a slew of other national defences allowed or executed the attacks.
