Yeah, except the pumps were running even though the fuel lines were
ruptured, pumping the fuel up to the fire floor....


Why would they be pumping fuel up the building when the gensets the fuel was
provided for were down with the fuel tanks in the basement?

I may agree that the mainstream media is a "propaganda arm", but not of
the FCC or the public face of the US Government.



Oh, I agree with that! The media propagandists work for the same elite
cults as the FCC. The media is owned by them.

Though I (may) hold a diametrically-opposed position to Larry on this
subject, I know that calling him bad names won't change his mind or
advance the discussion.



I call it "The Scientology Effect". If anyone dares disagree, go into
rabid attack mode and try to ruin them, if possible. It's how
Scientology stays in control of their world. It's quite effective.

Changing my view is very simple. Release the miles of videos the
government has hidden from public inspection of the most video taped
building on the planet, The Pentagram.

Because there was a large generator on the fifth floor connected to
tanks in the basement via a pressurized line. The fire burned for
several hours in building 7, but there was no fire fighting conducted
there, deemed to risky to send people in.

Why the hell would anyone design a five-sided building of that size?

That's something I file under "sounded good at the time". Sensible? Not
a chance.



"The Pentagon’s unusual five-sided configuration was dictated by the
site originally proposed (adjacent to Memorial Drive, about
three-fourths of a mile north of where the building was actually
constructed)."

See http://www.globalsecurity.org/milita...y/pentagon.htm ,if
you want the whole sordid history.;-)

Some people see conspiracies everywhere, and there's nothing you can do
except watch them very carefully.

Well, there goes the theory that it's a gateway to Hell.
