It's interesting how people buy into the memes that are put out to keep everything nice and opaque. Yes, talkin' to you darren3! Makes you feel smart doesn't it. You aren't fooled like those dummies who believe in conspiracies such as 9/11 was an inside job and Elvis lives. Because somebody told you that's what us "dummies" believe.
Here's a little story for you, see if you can connect the dots. Last week a new NBC news show called Rock Center with Brian Williams told the story of a heroic pilot that saved more than 200 lives. He was a Polish LOT pilot on a flight to Warsaw. They were unable to lower the landing gear so he had to land the 767 belly down on the runway--never been done before. The story stressed how nearly impossible this was because he had to fly perfectly parallel to the runway and ease it down. If it wasn't perfect it would break up. The pilot with 25 years experience, including military, wasn't sure he could do it.
He landed safely and was rightly hailed a hero. So what? From a pilot's perspective it was exactly the same feat that Hani Hanjour the terrorist who supposedly flew Flight 77 into the Pentagon. Except! Hani had a tougher task. He was flying faster and was coming out of a difficult 3G manoeuvre in a twisting turn before flying 10 feet above the ground over the Pentagon lawn to hit the building, all the while dealing with ground effect (look it up)! Need I repeat Hanjour's flight instructor wouldn't clear him to rent a Cessna. Uh huh! Oh yeah, Elvis is alive--in our hearts!
Did they really kill Osama Bin Laden?
