But why cover it up by blowing up part of the Pentagon? And, AFAIK there are people who saw the plane flying low over Washington.beorhthelm said:not really, they had an hour or so to make this decision. Probably the same fighter that shot down the boeing.
After two planes hit the wtc, Fighters are dispatched to intcept the other two aircraft that are known to be off course and under terrorist control. Fighter fires warning shot thats ignored. this aircraft is heading for washington and the target is therfore pretty clear. Given that they already know this is a hostile attack, someone has to make the call - White House or death of 70 odd passengers. Not going to be the white house is it... someone on the political side objects, and the solution is to suffer a smaller, controlled hit on the pentagon to cover the possible discomfort.
Maybe not. but look at the alternatives: either a boeing crashed into the pentagon and vapourised on contact, or else you believe in the hardcore conspiracy that the whole days events where preplanned and orchestrated - in which case why didnt they actually crash the plane and avoid this question mark?
Far more likely is that the other flight that never hit anything was shot down. I can imagine the American government prefering the report of passengers rebelling than that their own government just shot it down.
