Conspiracy v. fact 9/11

82. Saying nonsense doesn't make it true.

"Most guarded defense base on the planet". Are you kidding? Do you have any evidence for this, or is it merely a digital-rectal extraction?

There was zero air defense at the Pentagon against airplane attack prior to 9/11. It is colossally stupid & risky to put a SAM missile battery a couple miles from a major airports "final approach" airspace.

The Pentagon, the White House, the Capitol Building were overflown thousands of time before 9/11, with no response from the ground.

It is absolutely zero surprise that there were no other videos than one crappy peripheral view in the fringes of a parking lot fisheye lens. Look at NYC & AA11.

AA11 flew over on the order of 10,000 security cameras on the way to the tower. It got caught on ONE security camera. You point security cameras at points of interest (doorways, alley ways, cash registers). Not at random points in the sky.

One French camera crew had been filming fire fighters for a couple months, happened to be in the exact right spot, and got 1 second of video.

Tens of thousands of tourists, with photo cameras & video cameras, were walking the streets of NYC that day. One of them, driving into the city, got one crappy image of AA11 thru the windshield of his car.

What's wrong is not the dearth of data available. It's your silly expectation of what the magnitude of that data should have been in 2001.

(Today, as the Boston Marathon showed, security cameras are ubiquitous - as a direct result of 9/11 - and video cameras are in most phones. Therefore the situation is very different.)
