Debunking 9/11 Debunking by David Ray Griffin

Page 99 — Kean and Hamilton dismiss as “absurd” the theory that something other than American 77 hit the Pentagon. The only basis they give for this judgment is the claim that the 9/11 Commission staff “told the story of American Airlines Flight 77 in such detail—with radar tracking, air traffic control conversations, calls from the plane, and a timeline of the flight’s movements—that it simply was not credible to advance a theory that anything but American Flight 77 crashed into the Pentagon.”!”

Page 99 — None of that alleged evidence, however, can survive scrutiny. I show the problems with the alleged “calls from the plane” in Chapters 1 and 4. There are no “air traffic control conversations” with anyone on this plane after radio contact was lost about 40 minutes before the Pentagon was struck. And there is no evidence that the aircraft picked up by radar near Washington was AA 77, so the latter part of the resulting “timeline,” in which the aircraft is headed back toward Washington, cannot be known to be the timeline for AA 77. As former controller Robin Hordon emphasizes, after AA 77 went off the FAA radar screens before 9:00AM, positive radar contact was never reestablished and, in fact, could not have been reestablished, in the absence of the transponder signal, without the cooperation of the pilot.!* This fact undermines the claim of Colonel Alan Scott, who summarized the timeline for the 9/11 Commission, that AA 77 “appears back in radar coverage” at about 9:10. In fact, Scott himself, saying that “the FAA controllers now are beginning to pick up primary skin paints on an airplane,” admits that “they don’t know exactly whether thatis'77.”

Wow #GH trending on Bluesky. Is it because it's summer/4th of July and everyone is home? Or because John Oliver is on it? BTW building shown on #GH is in East LA, built during Depression, & Marilyn Monroe's birthplace. That show has been on for so long, my grandmother who died in '73 watched it!

Entrance way/lobby of old County hospital

"Erected by the citizens of the County of Los Angeles to provide hospital care to the acutely ill and suffering..."

LA General Medical Hospital, old building, mostly replaced by new building in 2010.

"By the 1920s–1930s the hospital moved into a monumental Art-Deco complex at 1200 North State Street — a multi-block H-shaped structure designed by a coalition known as the Allied Architects Association. That building, completed in the early 1930s and long known locally as the “Great Stone Mother,” seated thousands of patients and became an architectural and civic landmark in East Los Angeles."

Bayeux Tapestry: Detail from Battle of Hastings

Precedent? #ENGNOR #WorldCup ⚽🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇳🇴

Battle of Stamford Bridge (Sept 25,

1066): After marching his army 200 miles from London in just four days, King Harold Godwinson caught the Vikings off-guard and without their armor. The English routed the Vikings; both Hardrada and Tostig were killed, an event widely regarded as the end of the Viking Age in Britain. Wikipedia +3

Historical Impact

While the Viking threat was successfully neutralized, Godwinson's exhausted and depleted English army had to march immediately south to face a new threat from William, Duke of Normandy. This forced march directly contributed to the English defeat at the Battle of Hastings less than three weeks later. Wikipedia +1

My thoughts on this 250th anniversary of July 4, 1776: We must keep working to protect democracy in the United States, and to do that we all need to engage as much as we can to protect the vote for EVERYONE, and oppose fascism at every turn.
