Personally... I find it absolutely not worthy of comment... so I won't make one...
http://www.snopes.com/rumors/pentagon.htm
I highly recommend snopes.com, if something doesn't ring true, look it up there. They de-bunk much of the stuff that is circulating out there.
Also www.straightdope.com performs the same function.

Boru,
Boo! Hiss! You take all the fun out of it! Reality is Sooooooooooo dull!
So Sorry!!! I had not considered that, Jseal!!
This just in.........
We have unconfirmed reports that BORU's account was temporarily tampered with earlier today. Apparently several links appeared in a post under his name that lead directly to suspected government dis-information sites which closely resemble REAL websites that serve the public by debunking urban legends.

Hmmm... I'll have to think long and hard about this. But in the meantime, I'll say this...
Does it make it any less of a great tragedy?

It is interesting that I posted this same link just last week with almost the same exact title.
Same Link... (http://pixies-place.com:81/forums/showthread.php?t=22019)

Oh cool I wondered what that was....I was too impatient to wait for it to load, took for freakin ever and I was on cable so I gave up. Glad Teddy found that URL, too.

The real interesting part is that we used similar titles to our threads and also with our comments.

BIGbad,
Good question!
It is interesting to see how certain threads receive many views and posts, while other, and to my eye, quite similar threads vanish, making harly a ripple. I remember thinking of this when I followed the link above. I'm unsure if there are any "causes" or if it is merely random.

Bless you Boru, you beat me to it.
I do love Snopes...and I hope that everyone who clicks through to the link takes the time to read the rest of the posts to find the critique.

Thank you Boru.
I think it's absolutely disgusting that someone would take a national tragedy and make up lies about it in order to further divide our country.

Boru, I use snopes.com all the time and I did with this too. I used “9-11 Pentagon” for the search. It didn’t find this. What’d you use to search? I would not have posted it if I’d found it in snopes.
Vurginne, <quote> “Does it make it any less of a great tragedy?”
Definetly not!! No one was making light of the loss of life. I just thought it was an interesting view.
BIGbad, I didn’t see your post or I wouldn’t have posted it. I know it bothers some people when things are ‘double-posted’. And you’re right about our titles & comments…. Now isn’t that interesting! ;)
jseal, I wonder if the number of views given to various threads has to do with a catchy title, who it was authored by, the time of day or when during the week it was posted and how many folks visit Pixies at that time, is it random, or….. Good study for ya jseal. Let us know what you find out. Lol :)
Mackenzie, You are correct… Make note of the fact it’s an election year.
Everyone:
I wouldn’t have posted this if I’d found it in snopes or if I’d seen BIGbad already had. But thanks for taking the time to check it out & reply.
Actually even though it's not true, I’m glad there are people questioning what we see & hear in the media and not just blindly accepting everything we’re told. And I’m glad we live in a country where questions like this can be raised.
I still think it’s an interesting piece. Just look at how it got all of you thinking and talking.
Thanks guys. :) :)

It is good that people are always looking out for what really happend. I disagree with the method that is used in this video. All it tries to say is that since it can't be seen it didn't happen. If you are going to take the time to denounce something you better take the time to come up with alternate ideas as to what did happen.

Hell yes!
...and I'm WAY to lazy to do all that work!
I typed in "pentagon airplane" and it was number one in the search results. Boy, I sure am glad to read the reactions to this post! Everything from celebrating freedom of the press to double checking the mass media machine!!!
Thank you GingerV and Mackenzie for your oh-so-kind words!!!!!!! They made my day!!!
This Canadian fully supports the United States of America, I hate the misinformation and deliberate attempts to mislead and divide the people of your great nation. Let freedom reign, it is regrettable that the current administration has to try and justify what they did to please others. In my opinion, Saddam was a bad man, removing him was right, mistakes were made, I trust Bush will do all he can to try and fix them. It is definitely time for a man of action, and Bush certainly has proved himself that. (sorry for the soap box stuff there at the end, I just couldn't help myself)
God Bless America
