One of the weirder ones is that there were over 80 cameras pointed at the plane that crashed into the Pentagon and the public has seen none of the videos.


Another strange one is the speech than Rumsfeld gave about missing trillions at the Pentagon 1 day before 9/11, then completely forgotten in the face of increased military spending the next day.

I'm pretty sure that was debunked several years ago. Plus, video was finally released, so there's that.


Per GP there were over 80 cameras but the pentagon, after years of calls for transparency shared a couple stills from one camera, so there’s that.


Those stills have about the same quality as your typical Bigfoot photo though.

Why not just release a damn video?


They dont want to reveal the locations of their security cameras?


If they already released a still, they already released the location.


Of one camera. Not 80 of them.


I'm asking for them to release any video that shows what happened. If they already released one still, why not release the entire video?

I feel like you're purposefully being difficult.


I don’t have a lot to go on and so am I basically playing Devils Advocate.

If I’m coming off as difficult, that’s why.


Sunlight cures all infection.


This phenomenon is a subset of the effect "Too much sunlight denatures complex molecules and kills carbon-based life."


What do you mean debunked? Who debunked it? Do you have a citation? Are you suggesting the HQ of the most powerful military in the world had no security cameras?

This has the statement of the FBI agent saying that they had 85 videos, only one of which was released:

Hm. No. The weirdest one is that the WTC was torn down by tactical nuke, buried under its basement, in context of Silverstein Properties having insured it at much higher value before, essentially pulling off a gigantic insurance fraud.


I commented elsewhere on this oddity, and the Vegas shooting, contrasted to the coverage of the recent condo collapse.


Another thing I haven't seen any reasonable explanation for is how the towers collapsed perfectly in their footprint. It's hard enough to get smaller buildings to collapse perfectly in controlled demolition. Yet 2 towers that were among the tallest in the world both collapsed perfectly. With such tall towers they should have buckled unevenly at least a little bit, especially since the damage was off center.


They're definitely built to collapse inward out of necessity to avoid damaging other buildings/creating dominos.
