The thread title was crazy things you believe in!
Of course there was more damage than a door scratch, but I still thought it was very very weird how that part of such a massive event was reported with such vagueness, at the time and ongoing. It took 5 years for them to release any footage, which ended up being a few frames, containing no obvious planes.
The 9/11 attacks were the most significant event in world history between the Berlin Wall falling to probably COVID. There’s microscopic detail about the NYC attacks, and of course so much media captured on the day. I do actually think the Pentagon attack happened, I’m not a total lunatic, but I think they probably went a bit far with the ‘and we’ll keep most of that bit classified, because it’s a classified place’ kind of thing, which left an odd gap in the reporting of it which wasn’t really challenged at the time.
Unless you think it’s normal that in 2001 the Cleveland Centre (and my back garden) was surrounded by CCTV, but the Pentagon wasn’t.
