To all living under the shadow of 911 and the "War on Terror":


I am David Bosankoe of Bristol, England. A few months ago the
American Department of Defence released to the World Media the five
security-camera (CCTV) frames that capture the attack on the Pentagon
in Arlington, Virginia that occurred on September 11, 2001.
These
frames were broadcast across the Internet News agencies
where I was
able to pick them up and enlarge them, after which I joined them
together in a single animation file:




My attention was initially brought to these frames as I was searching
for evidence in support of my position in an argument with Dick
Eastman, an American who regularly posts his analysis, forwardings
and links to uk.politics.crime and other newsgroups.
We were arguing over the French web page,

"Spot the Boeing,"

Eastman was expounding his theory of an internally planted bomb and,
to show him his error I went to the BBC and did a search
for 'Pentagon' and found the CCTV images. That's when I made my first
animation from the frames.

Shortly before, American investigator, 'Agent Fescado,' provided on
the website, here,
his own analysis of the CCTV stills based on evidence that included
his own enlargement of the first frame in the sequence with added
overlays of different aircraft, using the position and size of the
tail fin of the actual attack craft shown in the first frame as the
reference for determining scale and position.

What he found was that the profile of the plane in the frame when
compared to the fitted overlay of a Boeing 757 where the tail fin of
the overlay exactly covers the visible fin of the attack aircraft,
was far too short to be a Boeing 757 (a rather obvious observation
which nevertheless I later proved with mathematical rigor on my web
site).
What Fescado also found was a tail-fin fitted overlay of an F-
16 m de for a very reasonable fit, as also do other small military
aircraft such as S-3B Viking (a craft which has been suggested by one
of Agent Fescado's sources as the true Pentagon-attack culprit.).
Which small military aircraft was responsible, is a question that
must not distract from the now-established finding that the Boeing
757 of Flight 77 was not the aircraft that the CCTV visually
captured, an aircraft which in my estimation is less than half the
length of the 757).
Afterward, I found the Internet source for the MSNBC Flash animation
of the CCTV images and extracted the Flash file out of their page,
allowing me to use the inbuilt zoom function in Flash which includes
a pixel interpolation function so I could quickly extract smoothed
pictures. I've explained how to trace my steps in all this and 'do it
yourself' at:

here

I then used a shareware version of Jasc Animation Shop to string this
together in an 'animated GIF' which so many have now seen thanks to
Dick Eastman.

When comparing proportions in the first frame, the height of the
Pentagon's wall, 70 feet, with the 155 feet length of the Boeing 757,
it becomes blatantly obvious that actual attack plane is too small.
This finding led me on to the size of the hole that the plane made.
When the plane first crashed into the Pentagon, it first of all it
made merely a hole and only later, after fire crews had arrived on
the scene, did the wall of Pentagon above this hole collapse.
Fortunately, someone who was on the nearby freeway and passing the
Pentagon at during the first moments of the attack had his camera
with him and managed to get some really good shots of this hole (see
my homepage)


The size of this hole is surprising. I approximate it to be between two and three
meters in across. Not only was the hole too small for a Boeing 757,
there was also virtually no plane wreckage. The wings were nowhere to
be seen. There was no luggage, seats, or debris that one expects from
this type of crash.

Later, I saw the damage report on the extent of the internal damage.
That too was inconsistent with an mid-sized airliner crash.

But that is just the beginning. In the first CCTV image a white smoke
trail is visible to the right following the plane. However, the
problem is that jet contrails only happen at high altitudes when the
water vapor from a jet's exhaust freezes into a trail of visible ice
crystals. So the only explanation of this white smoke is that it is
the rocket-engine emission of a small missile. This conclusion is
supported by the evidence in the second image, where the initial
fireball is more of a flash explosion consistent with that of a small
missile warhead. So on two counts of visual evidence it can be said
that a missile was launched at the Pentagon just before impact of the
attacking plane.

So in conclusion, instead of knife-armed terrorists with limited
flight experience hijacking a modern passenger plane and flying it in
to the Pentagon at ground level, we are forced to the conclusion that
a military jet with auto pilot capabilities flew into to Pentagon,
firing a missile just ahead of impact.

Also remarkable is the choice of the point impact, a point only
metres away from the only fire hydrant on that side of the building.
This was the hydrant for the heliport, with underground tanks, in
case of helicopter crashes. (Again see my homepage.) Whoever planned
the attack likely was thinking of damage limitation.

So, knowing that the attack craft was not a Boeing, it is abundantly
clear to me that the US Government has lied to us about Sept 11th. I
can only conclude that they did the deed themselves as a propaganda
operation to 'justify' to the American people (and their allies)
their sought-for war against the Taliban and 'War on Terrorism.'
From
other people's investigations it has become clear that this was all
done for oil and opium and geopolitical gain, and NOT to liberate the
women of that country from restricted Islamic lifestyles (a worthy
enough cause, but certainly not a decisive motive for the war.)

I. MOTIVES:

1. getting the pipeline the Taliban had rejected;

2. control of the mineral wealth of Afganistan;

3. generating a popular and sufficient reason to attack Saddam
Heussein (whom both father and son Bush have long wanted to see dead);

4. continued sustainability of the infamous "ring" of Afghan opium
becoming Chinese heroin becoming laundered revenue proceeds becoming
investment capital building new Chinese industry forcing the
relocation of industry away from U.S. territory;

5. big money for the FBI, CIA, military industrial complex;

6. Destruction of wtc-housed evidence in the biggest-ever illegal oil
swap case;

7. destruction of wtc-housed evidence in the biggest-ever gold price
fixing case (illegal selling of Federal Reserve gold to elites at way
below obtainable market prices);

8. Getting the FBI off white collar and bank crime (i.e. introducing
total anarchy to the sphere in which the U.S. investment bankers,
currency traders, derivatives makers etc. operate);

9. Having the CIA ("Capitalism's Invisible Army" as R. Buckminster
Fuller called it) take over the FBI (the more legitimate and
traditionally constitutional of Federal investigation and
intelligence agencies) and in so doing purging the FBI of leadership
symnpathetic with anti-globalist, populist, nationalist,
constitutionalist, or pro-sovereignty thinking -- in fact it is the
druglords taking over the constabulary; and lastest,

10. Accomplishing pre-emptive war set-up to look like retalitory self-
defence, i.e., picking fights, against all "potential" terrorists by
setting-up the those suspected of being capable of resorting to
terror, actually conducting terror themselves so they can pin the
blame on those they want to decimate, those who stand in the way of
their economic and geopolitical dominance.

II. Remote-control crashes:

EgyptAir flight 10.31.99 -- clear case of remote-control takover;
data captured on blackbox voice recorder and on instument recorder
make it unmistakable that the plane was taken over against the will
of pilot and co-pilot (a voice -- English, not Arabic, actually is
heard in the voice recorder saying "control it" at the moment the
controls begin to misbehave -- the efforts to refute this have only
landed the government in deeper in a coverup --EgyptAir and th
Egyptian government accept this view and not the obviously cooked
findings of the U.S. review board.)

New York flight in Queens -- breaks up in air -- after rudder begins
moving first right and left -- breaking off the tail fin -- another
whitewash by U.S. aviation officials as well.

Miami Flight -- rudder goes wild on its own, then stops. This was
a "test" of the remote-controlsystems.

Ron Brown's crash in Croatia -- same deal, and then, to make sure Ron
Brown got a bullet in the head by the first "rescuers on the scene.

The Plane that hit the South tower. Note the Japanese video showing
another aircraft streak by at the moment of impact -- presumably a
guidance aircraft or a missile to do the job in case the plane missed
its intended target. (very little data on this besides the video
itself, so we tend to leave it alone, but it is definitely part of
the big picture.

III. Pentagon "small jet"

This is the "smoking gun" that could finish the crime syndicate
responsible for 911 -- unfortunately the crime syndicate knows this
very well and the American people have hardly begun to get the word.

1. DoD video -- the Bosankoe evidence

2. small hole -- the French evidence and the photo from the freeway

3. witness accounts -- those who saw a horizontal approach claim the
plane was too small to be a Boeing 757 -- many military men who did
not see said they heard a jet fighter, some heard a missile.

4. Air traffic controllers claim plane behaved like a military jet.

IV. STANDDOWNS

1. Intelligence -- FBI prevented from investigating (after merger
with the CIA they won't even try, btw)

2. Air interceptions -- could have, but didn't -- ordered not to --
many many sources on this; many officials (Cheney, Rumsfeld) caught
in falsehoods

VI. Phony bin Laden video (Dick says: I have lots of analysis of this
that are on no site that I know of -- I had forgotten this until now)

VII: Evidence of prior planning and attempts to enlist other nations
in war against Afganistan pre-911 (Powell in India, most especially;
but many others)



And the lesser stuff:

Bush's behavior on the day and subsequently.Rice's statements before
911.Wolfowitz lightening appraisal and conclusion that war on
Afganistan is necessary.Economic links of Bush, Cheney etc. to
profiteering from exactly this war.The short-sells and where they
lead.



----------------------------------------------------------------------

I am at a loss as to suggest where to go next, but I will leave you
with this. Enough pressure of disclosures has been brought to bear on
the US Government to warrant Congressional hearings into facts
surrounding the events of Sept 11th. Such hearings are already
starting THIS WEEK in private sessions and later will be opened to
the public/media.

The Committee chairmen will however try to limit the scope of the
investigation to "intelligence failures" and will certainly attempt
to overlook the overwhelming evidence of the small-plane attack of
the Pentagon as well as many other pertinent pieces of information .

It is up to you, you who have checked the Pentagon-attack evidence
presented here to let the US Government know that they can no longer
hide from the truth and that those who continue to evade these
questions will be seen as collaborators in the worst crime of this
century.

If that hijacked airplane didn't hit the Pentagon, then where did it go?

"Spot the Boeing" is a very smug site, but all of it's hare-um scare-um speculation really doesn't add up to much when you think of the collision in terms of structural engineering or the the physics of an impact.

Similarly, the "small fighter plane and missile" theory of Mr. Boskanoe is pretty feeble, especially as he is using five frames of blurry videotape as his "evidence"...the pictures of the "small hole" he references on a seperate web page are equally pixalated and unconvincing.

First of all, we are dealing with a building that was especially designed by paranoids to accomodate any number of unlikely situations...after all, there is an atomic reactor in the basement that needs a lot of containment. Secondly, the physics and material science of "nomral" plane crashes are very complex. The common-sense approach taken by these theorists belies the complications of metal stress, fuel load...not to mention that this case is exceptional from a forensics standpoint in that the plane was aimed at a building...there isn't much point of comparison with your standard downed plane.

Finally, and this is the kicker...

Those all-important frames were released by the Department of Defense for media distribution. Now, if this were all the product of a conspiracy conducted by thousands of professionals spooks and strategy wonks, why on earth would you trust source material that the Department of Defense - part of the same government being accused of all this - actually distributed for popular consumption? I am supposed to take as carte blanche that a system with thousands of experts and a multiple redundancy system would let that important a detail just "slip"?

We are all living in the shadow of the "War on Terror," but I fail to see the utility behind this project of finger-pointing. There are far better, and less murky, reasons to draw devil horns on the US government (not to mention every other government in the world) which are ignored in favor of this kind of Chris-Carter flavored wild alien chase. The real conspiracies are far more simple, far more selfish.

The idea that the 9/11 crash was manufactured by the US government sounds great...it has a beat that is synchronous with the populist sentiments currently being expressed by subaltern thinkers in the US and Europe. It plays upon our dislike of George Bush Jr and Republicans in general, our concerns about globalization and the monodirectional movement of capital...it allows us to maintain our sense of liberalness by shifting blame from a group we'd like to think of as victims...Muslims extremists...and fully alleviates the fear that we might be unjustly tarring an entire religious/ethnic community with the brush of terrorism. The conspiracy theory saves us, as thinking individuals, from the cognitive dissonance inherent to operating in the world; it is a panacea of the mind, confirming the rightness of our worldview and our ability to distinguish good guys from bad.

Kind of what Thiazi said...
people on the plane that "didn't" hit the Pentagon are dead. Hmmm.
I know there're a lot of things about the whole thing that just don't add up, but... (and yeah, the first time I saw the "where are the plane bits" site it seemed like a revelation... for about thirty seconds. Then reality kicked back in) not quite that many.

All in all, this appears to be a pretty fucking weak conspiracy theory.

21:10 / 11.06.02
Given that this was a pretty crap conspiracy theory can anybody do any better? I'd like to see something truly imaginative and byzantine out of this. Bonus points for connections to:

a) the illuminati
b) the 'faked' moon landings
c) the egyptian/babylonian empires. Although Roman will do at a pinch.

12:12 / 12.06.02
Its sort of a pity that we never actually get any statistics on how many chaps actually take this conspiracy theories as plain facts, without the "theory" label. I am prone to believe that it is indeed a great proportion of the population of any country.

b) the 'faked' moon landings

Thats the one I believe in, no matter how contrary evidence you bring me, even if you take me to the moon, the equipment was probably laid there a few minutes ago.

Also remarkable is the choice of the point impact, a point only metres away from the only fire hydrant on that side of the building. This was the hydrant for the heliport, with underground tanks, in case of helicopter crashes.

If I wanted that fire hydrant to be useful, I'd make sure the plane landed more than a few metres awat from it.
