On the 21st anniversary of 9/11, an old, false claim that no airplane debris was found at the Pentagon after the attack has been challenged. The main theory is that there was no plane wreckage at the Pentagon. At 9:37 am on September 11, 2001, American Airlines Flight 77 crashed into the western side of The Pentagon, causing a partial destruction. The 9/11 Commission Report explains the events before and after the crash, which killed all 64 people onboard. It has been 23 years since terrorists hijacked four commercial airplanes in a coordinated attack that killed 2,977 people in New York, Washington, D.C., and other cities. Security camera footage taken at the Pentagon on September 11, 2001, fuels online claims that an airliner did not hit the US military headquarters. There is overwhelming evidence that an American Airlines plane crashed into the Pentagon on September 11, 2001, not a missile.
Various conspiracy theories have been proposed to attribute the preparation and execution of the September 11 attacks against the United States to parties other than the United States. The first 9/11 conspiracy theories appeared on the internet just hours after the attacks, and with the rise of social media, they have grown. The Pentagon was struck by American Airlines Flight 77 at approximately 0937 on September 11, 2001, hitting the E Ring at the first deck level. With the twentieth anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks approaching, it is recommended to use sources for better understanding the events surrounding the 9/11 attacks.

📹 The Five BIGGEST 9/11 Conspiracy Theories DEBUNKED Forever | JOE Features
After twenty years, conspiracy theories about what happened on 9/11 are STILL running wild. So we’re attempted to take five of …
One of the key points about the Pentagon attack is that there were no aeroplane engines found either inside or outside the Pentagon and no engine damage was visible to the Pentagon outside walls. As retired military photo-reconnaisance expert Major General Albert Stubblebine noted – whatever hit the Pentagon was not an airplane. Others have slipped up and said it was a missile which makes sense.
The only pieces of plane wreckage I saw were small, unburnt pieces that could be carried away by one person (and these people were always running for some reason). How come the lawn wasn’t damaged in the plane crash? How and why did the FBI show up at every civilian place with a camera facing the Pentagon “within minutes” of the so-called crash? Why can’t they release a photo of the plane flying towards’ the Pentagon? And is it just a coincidence the only part of the Pentagon that was hit was the part that was recently reinforced and contained the civilian crew investigating the missing $2 trillion dollars Rummy announce the day before? It may be a bridge too far to believe, but what if that’s how they got away with it?
Old Thom is dead wrong, they didn’t find engines and landing gear?! There’s a surveillance article STILL not scrubbed from youtube shot from the security guard gate where the impact occurred…there’s no way that was a huge commercial jet airliner crashing into the building, you would’ve noticed a large white blur, wings or something from that article if it were. Instead all you see is a disturbance on the ground in front of the building probably where the missile was skimming along the lawn then kaboom, detonation.
Watching the only article footage available from the security gate, it was clearly not a 757. It looks to be a large Drone bomber used by the military. That would explain how it travelled that fast and that close to the ground executing a flawless strike without accidently dropping or hitting the ground from low altitude turbulance (drag). Creating that level of damage and making such a small opening with deep penetration, it had to be a drone carrying missles with specialized warheads.
No wing or engine contact on building, they say these parts were found amongst all the debris outside. They also confirm that whilst the workers were evacuating the building, many reported wading through knee high jet fuel inside the building. Which baffles me, as the fuel tanks are within the wings of the plane, and the wings remained outside as scattered debris.
There was a large cable reel made of steel not wood in the articles that I have seen. Also the engines for the aircraft weigh 4 ton each, they would have left an impression in the building, none were present. no wings and no tail section. The official article was edited by the F.B.I. The only one that was allowed to be shown!
At the 1:30 mark, the host just admits the Pentagon story simply could not have happened as the “official govt story” says it did. The official report clearly stated that a 757 was doing 530mph, 6 feet above the ground, driven by a pilot that had never been in a commercial cockpit before. There is zero chance either that plane crashes, breaks apart, or there was simply no 757 AA commercial airliner 6 feet above the ground at the Pentagon on 9/11. The host here even admits that could not take place. Sooooo, where does that leave us….?
No one even needs to watch a single article from that day to come to this conclusion. The government claimed they had no prior knowledge what these people were going to do, yet 41 seconds after the strike on the south tower, 17 minutes after the first, Bin Laden’s name and picture was already on the tv naming him as the mastermind. If they knew nothing prior how did they find out immediately after it started who was responsible? They only person(s) who would know intricate details of a crime immediately afterwards or while the crime is being committed are the ones committing the crime. So when the government was able to release such details as early on as they did, what does that say?
This is complete garbage. Hartman: there were NO parts (scraps yes of something) found . You are deceiving the caller who is 100% correct. You CANNOT fly a plane into anything that you want to hit at that speed and height and, these guys were incapable of doing it. The hole was NOT made by a 757 Use your logic or common sense, man..no wonder you have no followers…
Wrong on this one Thom. There is article of CNN there before the only 15’ hole collapsed saying, “there’s no sign of a plane here” the grass is green no spill-fire from jet fuel, no tons seats, bodies… The 2 10’ titanium jet engines sitting 50’ out from center on wings didn’t leave a mark on anything or break a window even. Then after all the time from first hit in NYC, till pentagon ( normally a even a single engine plane off course/ no communication over Minnesota would have 2 fighter jets escorting it within minutes any other day. Then the first fighter jet flew over reporting a smoking hole & no sign of plane also. There’s article of the cnn reporter who got scarce after that day & quit, never really talking much since. None of this is on the official dvds, anniversary, history website vids of course. Also I remember Rumsfeld walking around with 4 or 6 guys in white dress shirts, went into the hole, & carries something heavy out on a gurney type thing u see a sheet . Never seen that mentioned ever since that day. I’m sure someone has that on some 9/11 truth article.
I’ve read Hartmann’s books and find much of what he has to say informative and helpful. He appears to have a closed mind on this topic. There are colossal discrepancies between what was reported and what happened that defy logic and common sense. The truth is very painful, but I had hoped Thom Hartmann was wise and hones enough to appreciate it. He isn’t.
American Airlines Flight 77 was a scheduled American Airlines domestic transcontinental passenger flight from Washington Dulles International Airport in Dulles, Virginia, to Los Angeles International Airport in Los Angeles, California. But we know that flight never landed in Los Angeles. So if the plane did NOT hit the Pentagon, then where is the plane and where are the 58 passengers who were on it? Are those passengers part of the conspiracy, too? Have they been in hiding for 18 years?
The precision it would have taken to do what these guys did was well beyond their capacity and many airline piles don’t think they could have done it Think of the cushioning as it closer and closer to the ground and the ground effect The only picture or article they show does not show engines flying off that airplane and why are they so stingy Showing us more photos of the actual hitting of the building they had cameras all over the place what could be so top secret About showing us more articles of the thing hitting the building
What happen to the plane if it didn’t hit the pentagon? Is a question about the truth but you don’t have to know the truth to know what is a lie. Images of the pentagon after it was struck but before the wall falls about an hour later are hard to find now. They show a hole in the building that does not show damage to the left and right where the wings would have struck the building. If a plane struck the building it’s wings would have had to retract into the plane first.
The top military force in the world, capable of deploying forces in every place in the earth, with the best equipment so far, with the top technology of the decade (in those years) and with the first 5th gen attack jets … that army (their headquarters!) were the victim of a comercial plane? kidnaped(by the way) by a bounch of “terrorists” ?. That… doesn’t sound right. In fact, it’s a joke, according to Hartmann’s logic: if you have the permission to fly an airplane (or you let a bounch of “terrorists” fly your aircraft) you can end the army and the USA generals just like that, right in this moment!,no one will stop you!.
If you believe Oswald was the super Rambo snipper you are ready to believe an amateur pilot could perform such an imposible hit. Many profesional pilots with thousand of hours flying experience said it is IMPOSIBLE To perform such a perfect atrike. But you prefer to to believe all that nonsense and not to look for the true, is much easier to sleep at night.
But what about the official story for the buildings coming down in free fall speed when the official explanation for the buildings coming down jet fuel that burned up at impact caused a pancake fall of the buildings when we all saw that the buildings were pulverized concrete and steel structures. Why was their no investigation of the the buildings falling like they did. What about building 7 falling at free fall speed in an obvious demolition? And that Jackass Who owned it told the firefighters to get out because they were going to pull it which is a demolition term for blowing it up. Too much fishy and sketchy stuff going on with that to not believe those crooks in the Bush Cheney administration. Don’t be so naive!
I guess Thom has never heard of the attack on Pearl Harbor. General Marshall was just one of the top brass who new the Japanese were going to hit us – hard. The very first person ‘on the scene’ called in and said there was no evidence of a plane crashing anywhere near the Pentagon. Plus, the hole wasn’t 125 feet wide and 45 feet high – it was 16 feet wide and below the second storey. There were NO Boeing 757 parts found, much less an engine; but there was a fan from a drone photographed inside the 4th ring. The exact size opening in the Pentagon exterior matches the hole in Slobodan Milosevic’s building, in Kosovo. Is Thom saying a Boeing 757 fit into that hole too? Those openings were smaller than an Olympic size swimming pool. Both Lt Karen Kwiatkowski and April Gallup both said they smelled cordite after the explosion. Snicker giggle – “well, that’s what you’re hearing that somebody else told you … the engines were on the ground.” Where do you get your information from, Thom?! “… if we had dealt with him like we did Tim McVeigh.” Thom thinks McVeigh’s truck full of fertilizer took out half of a federal building!! Timothy knew he was set up as a patsy – that’s why he never said anything, fighting his charges would have been moot from the outset.
I thought about the fact that they never released any of the article of the roof mounted security cameras that surround the Pentagon, and it seems logical that they wouldn’t as a general policy because people could use it to determine if there are any blind spots or vulnerabilities for future misdeeds. In reality, they could crop the image so that the plane could plainly be seen without divulging the full capability of their surveillance system.
There are witnesses who were in traffic close to the Pentagon, more than one witness several, saw the plane coming in quick, low to the ground and hit the pentagon. One witness said that the plane was at an angle, and one of the wings hit something before it hit the pentagon. That explains why the hole was not the complete length of an airplane from wing tip to wing tip. And I have seen photos years later that were finally released by the government, showing landing gear destroyed inside the Pentagon, and there was even at the time of the destruction portions of the airplane that were located. When a missile is fired, it has to gain a certain altitude, but it does not come back towards the ground and be flying horizontally only 50 feet above the ground for quite a distance to hit the building. This caller is nothing but speculation he was not there, but there were witnesses there, and several of them said they heard the roaring of a plane looked up quickly and saw the plane come right into the building. I believe witnesses more than these conspiracy nuts.
9/11 was not an inside job. There was however a handful of people that had information and did not react with it. Also what has happened since 9/11? The pentagon was probably not hit with the 757 as has been stated in the article release by the pentagon there is a lack of conclusive visual evidence for that. Also the first reporters on the seen we dumbfounded by the lack of debris. I respect thom’s work but I think he maybe worried about his rep if he were to speak otherwise. It is easy to do a little leg work on this information. There were Thermite charges BUILT INTO the towers at the time of their construction however they were not hooked up to charges / blast caps. When the Airplanes through inertia and heat the thermite charges went off. If this information came to light there would be a lot of lawsuits and perhaps there are. There is a group called press for truth that has constructed a timeline of events and it clearly shows there is a lot of lying going on by the leaders of that time. George Bush Jr admitted in a town hall meeting that he watched the first plane strike the tower on CCTV this may not have been a live feed but perhaps a delayed one.
What about the bombs that were placed whithen the towers? That’s they only reason that the towers fell (fire can’t melt steel) same with Tower 7 it was in no way directly impacted other than a little bit if fire and it fell it’s not possible for a building to fall that controlled without something helping it all beams would have to be taken out at the same time time a retired fire marshal that was there stated that molten metal (presumably steel) but remember it wasn’t caused by the fire because fire cannot melt steel it can’t get hot enough by itself. Do I believe the government had something to do with 9-11… Oh yeah unless you can change my mind
Wow this guy loves to sit on the fence … it was patently obvious no plane hit the pentagon where is the footage ? its physically impossible for a commercial airliner to disappear into a ten ft diameter hole ! where are the wings ? where is the tail section come on for gods sake get real people you were duped …
Dear Mr. Hartmann, of course you are free to believe whatever fairytale you wish to believe. But your personal belief will not and never invalidate causality. And as of today, causality between flight AAL77 and the damage to the Pentagon has not yet been established, despite heaps of wishful thinking and Disney style computer animations. But when two things physically don’t match, they won’t connect either thru believing.
There was a article on YouTube for the longest time but now I it has been taken down where it showed a 18ft round punch hole in the Pentagon or a tomahawk cruise missile hit it it was shown one time on the news and then it was taken down when the rest of the news media got there the building had collapsed so what you see now these articles is where the building collapse. From a plane hitting it it was hit by a tomahawk cruise missile I cannot find the article on YouTube now
* airplane debris found at the pentagon. There are photos. * flight data recorder recovered and its contents released publicly * images showing an aircraft-shaped impact damage to the exterior of the pentagon. * damage “cone” consistent with an airplane crash, and totally inconsistent with a missile strike * multiple eyewitnesses who saw the plane * ATC was tracking the plane. Radar showed the plane ending up there * luggage and personal effects of the passengers were recovered from the debris. Some is on display at the pentagon 911 memorial. * the remains of all of the passengers were recovered from inside the pentagon in a state consistent with a plane crash, officually identified, and returned to the families for burial.
do another article and show the plane parts on that day .. ask major general albert stubblebine who after spendin 33 years in the armed forces and his area of expertise was photo and article and article analysis his opinion .. look him up .. he said there’s no way that plane could fit in that hole .. and he also said why were all the camera’s turned off that day ?? 87 cameras and no clear picture of a plane hittin the pentagon ?? of how about mineta the transportation secretary who somehow got swept up into the situation room at the white house that day .. and witnessed a marine commin into the room to warm dick chenny that the plane was 100 miles out and chenney said ok .. then came back in again sir the plane is 50 miles out ..again ok said chenney,, sir the plane is 20 miles out, ok said chenney and finally sir the plane is 10 miles out does the order still stand ?? and chenney whipped his head around and said did you hear anything to the contrary ?? no sir .. well then .. and out the marine went .. and they never shot that plane down so if the order was to shoot it down ?? it was not followed .. if it was to NOT SHOT THE PLANE DOWN . then it was .. what does any rational person think ?? that they would disobey the actin commander in chief on that day ?? if so no charges for anything like that were ever brought forward that i’m aware of .. i’m sure this remark will probably get buried .. the truth always does ..
