Bullshit. I cant believe how many people buy random crap posted on the internet.
Everything people spread on the internet is generally wrong, and stupid.
When confronted with any sort of internet rumor, it's good to check www.snopes.com - these people devote their lives to debunking silly urban legends and miscellaneous rumors.

Does make you wonder. I've seen similar speculative bits of media about this and they do bring up some good points. Yes the Pentagon is a big building, but the Earth is even bigger and it's not so hard to notice that a plane had hit is as it is to tell from pictures we see of the Pentagon.
Anyway, what are we really asking here? Is this some kind of coverup or a staged attack to enrage American citizens? Was it an actual attack and it was somehow neccessary for the public to beleive it was an aircraft that did it and not some other weapon? etc, etc...
Personally I want to think this was a collision of some kind - seems to me that an actual missile would not have penetrated so far with it's limited mass and tendency to explode when it hits something hard.

Here we go again...

How can you "fake" the collision of a 757-200 into the Pentagon at the end of rush hour on a picture perfect clear day? You can't. There were too many witnesses passing by on I-395. I wish whoever started this conspiracy theory would simply get a clue and shut the hell up already.

This was discussed before on these boards.

In reality a plane was found. The photos used in this flash are quite convenient for the producer.

I am not making a personal attack here, but there is so much real information out there that you could read on this subject. I really encourage you to do so. This flash relies entirely on a few photos and a lot of speculation.

Make your own opinion. There is just so much evidence out there. You do yourself a disservice basing an opinion on this piece.

As a licensed pilot I believe it to be a bunch of b.s. I saw pics on tv that clearly showed airplane parts. I including them lifting a engine out of the building and putting it on the truck.
Remember if you saw it on the internet it must be true :)

Definately bullshit .. Watch the test crashes of 747's where they literally fly them into huge concrete walls. The planes disintegrate on impact leaving a nice hole where they hit.
