Turns out the PA plane crashed while the passengers were trying to wrestle
control back from the terrorists.

These people are true world heroes who saved more lives than they will ever
know by not accepting the situation and not rationalizing that they might
survive if they capitulated.

I cannot express how proud I am of them.

Read my tag line below.  During the Oaklahoma City bombing all of the
"experts" (has-been drips under pressure) were all set to hang the bombing
on some radical Islamic group.  Turns out to be one of our own. History
repeating itself?

Could be a thousand reasons why.  Including some sinister things.

Briefly heard this.  Then nothing. Keep in mind there *were* a lot of
things reported quickly without verifying them.  Classic example was the
report that they found a bunch of explosives on the George Washington
Bridge. Turned out that a van with three guys in it were stopped in the
Meadowlands and arrested for questioning.  No explosives were found. WTF is
that about?



>I'm not a "conspiracy" oriented person,

Neither am I.  Nor do I have enough respect for the media or our government
to be capable of pulling off a conspiracy and covering it up very well.



Playing Devil's advocate for a minute here....  One reason I can think of
for not reporting an estimated body count (too early for an accurate one,
trust me on this one) would be to not give the bastards satisfaction. Just
a thought...

One thing that does bother me is the report I hear of their finding a car
in Boston "with flight manuals written in Arabic." I'm sorry, but that
reads like something from a pulp fiction written for teenager tastes....
