[D]on't get caught in the web of deceit being spread by less than honorable or downright whackos about "holograms". What about the infamous "pods"? Message 20414184 LPS5

Agreed. That's a typical disinformation tactic. Take a starting point, like some legitimate point of disagreement with the "official" whitewash...I mean report...and then weave a tail of ever more ridiculous lies behind it until it all sounds ludicrous. Then the public dismisses the whole movement behind investigating 9-11 as just a bunch of nuts.

On the subject of disinformation. I'm afraid I find the arguments presented to be lame at best. oilempire.us./bogus.html#newproof Quite honestly, I don't know what to make of the plane bumps, but there is something there and I don't believe claiming it's the attaching structure for the wings covers the apparent anomaly. Sometime back there was a clip available supposedly being a second video of the first plane hitting. It vanished almost as soon as it showed up, and I haven't been able to run across it since. There were three anomalies in the clip: there was the same white flash on the building, there was another "pod" on the plane, and the wall was exploding outward just prior to impact. I'll be the first one to admit there are questionable sources of information, which should be taken with a very large grain of salt, not to mention a tendency on the part of some observers to read in more than what can be justified by the evidence. On the other hand, even the most far fetched theories make more sense than the theory DC was totally defenseless an hour and a half after it was conclusively known America was under attack. So, what motivation would a person have to attack anyone trying to figure out what was going on in the bellies of the planes prior to impact? Taking a closer look at the CNN clip of the second plane, it looks more like an explosion than a pod. The so called pod only appears in the last half dozen frames before impact. Assuming something like 30 frames per second for video, that would make it less than a quarter second before the crash. "If" the planes were wired with explosives, the devices would have to be detonated prior to impact. Otherwise, the crash itself would likely render such devices inoperative. That might also account for the white flash seen on the side of the building. Interestingly, the CNN clip has a banner across the bottom of the screen where the flash appears in other footage. Does that explain what many persons who have studied the clips have observed? Maybe, maybe not. In any case, the neo con message board rhetoric on the Oil Empire site has a very false ring to it, IMO.
