Ray > The plane's fuselage does bulge for the fairings where the wings attach. This is what is being misinterpreted as "pods".

Thanks very much for the info. For the first time I'm able to see how the confusion could have arisen. Still, I do not go as far as you do in suggesting that people who consider the fairing to be something more sinister are necessarily disinformation agents.

Apropos the DNA identification of the Flight 11 and 175 passengers, I am a bit more skeptical. What worries me is how identifiable human remains could survive, depending on how one sees the cause of the collapse of the WTC, either fires which were sufficient to melt steel and completely destroy three skyscrapers for the first time in history and in seconds or else a series of explosions which were sufficient to cut four inch steel columns and pulverize concrete, glass etc as well as the aircraft black boxes? I'm sorry but I keep thinking about Mohammed Atta's passport which is alleged to have survived all that in pristine condition.

You may remember that after the planes hit the World Trade Center towers--an epic disaster that vaporized the flesh and bones of every human being in the fireball's path, incinerated both planes' cockpit recorders and black-box recorders, and melted structural steel designed to withstand a Hellish heat of 2000 degrees Fahrenheit--the passport of suspected hijacker Mohammed Atta was found intact, in pristine condition, lying in the twisted, smoking rubble.

How this miracle occurred has never been explained--but that is the way with miracles, they cannot be explained, only taken on faith.

And now, we learn in this AP story that, not only did Atta's passport survive the crash, so too did the passport of another hijacker, one Satam al-Sugami.

Yes, it is true. At the moment the plane crashed into the building and exploded, al-Sugami's passport flew out of his carry-on luggage (or his pocket, we're not sure which), fell through the inferno, and floated down to the sidewalk below. Within minutes, it was picked up by someone whose attention was not focused on the flaming wreckage raining down from above and turned over to the proper authorities. And, like Atta's passport, it was found to be intact and in pristine condition.

So there you have it. The miracle was even greater than we at first thought. For it happened to not one, but two passports. As I say, there is no doubt that this happened because both the government and the mainstream media say it did.<<

RE: "In reality, it is a fairing."

IMO, that would take at least as large a leap of faith as assuming it's a missile pod.

RE: ""pods" are actually artifacts of the digitization of the images of a B-767s landing gear fairings."

ditto

I have yet to see anything come from the antipod people that looks any more credible than that of the pod people. Without a whole lot more information, the most an honest person could say is "I don't know for sure what the photos and videos show, but it looks strange.".
