Before the clips were released, CNN and other corporate media outlets assured us all that these clips would put an end to all of those still not believing the gov’t line about a Boeing 757 hitting the Pentagon.
- CNN Anchorwoman: It shows the plane going into the Pentagon on 9/11.
- CNN Pentagon Correspondent Barbara Star: this is the video from, we believe, security cameras here in the Pentagon parking lot that showed American Airlines Flight 77 striking the Pentagon on September 11, 2001.
- It is expected that the video will show for the first time a more discernible image of Flight 77..uh..hitting the building.
- It will be a somewhat grainy image but it will show Flight 77 and the impact into the side of the building
- This is expected to put to rest, some of the internet chatter some of the sort of…uh…fringe comments that have been out on the internet for years now about whether or not a plane really hit this building. And of course a plane did (emphasis hers) hit this building.
CNN’s Barbara Star goes on to say that the organization Judicial Watch got the film by filing a FOIA request ‘as did CNN’. She then reports that after JW’s FOIA request was denied they filed suit in court. Star doesn’t continue on to say that JW won the court case. They did. Meeting doctrinal requirements, which dictate that the population must not get the impression that the govt need respond to pressure from citizens, she reports that the US govt decided to release the tape now that the Moussaoui trial is over which wasn’t the govt position taken when the FOIA was filed and even though Moussaoui pled guilty in April of 2004.
This entire story is a non-story and instead a media event in which the internet and dissenters from the govt theory of 9/11 all get smeared as having been alarmist pushing claims lacking any credibility.
And behind yesterday’s big story is finally the video, which isn’t a video at all but a few still frames from a video, from the same video that was released years ago.
Move along, besides yet another psychological operation designed to manipulate the population into not trusting anything that comes from sources that disagree with Washington, there’s nothing to see here.
