Unhappy

I'd say the pentagon was a whole lot more solid than the towers.
The planes only made it 1/2 way through them didn't they?

Saw this a while back and some interesting points made but with my limited knowledge of plane crash effects on buildings I would find it hard to make any constructive comment. One would expect the Pentagon to take less damage due to its shape and construction amid the rumours that its armoured due to housing nuclear reactors. Plus surely a plane travelling at that height would be travelling slower than one hitting a high tower?

snopes - is possibly the best site on the internet
for rumour control and stories.

I read this a while back as someone in my office is a conspiracy theorist....excellent way to shoot them down so to speak.

original 'story' uses very selective photos imho
plus way too public a story to fake it !
