The World's Stupidest Pentagon Attack Theory

Back when Army vet and Loose Change producer Korey Rowe speculated that the Pentagon might have been attacked by the Javelin anti-tank missile, I thought that nobody else could come up with a theory anywhere near as stupid.

Once again, I must admonish myself for underestimating the imagination and sheer idiocy of conspiracy theorists. You would think I would learn. From tonight's interview with Jim Fetzer at the 1:18 mark:

James in Salt Lake City: Hi, Dr. Fetzer this is James Valarian, with Utah Rally for Peace. I don't know if you remember me or not. I called in before. I wanted to let you know, that my own research has discovered that the military has a weapon called the direct strike hard target weapon, nicknamed Big Blue, which is a 30,000 lb missile, which has the capability to blast through thick concrete walls, what happened at the Pentagon. And I believe that that's what happened, and that it was delivered by a C-130 which was in the vicinity and in Griffin's book, there is a radio report from the pilot of a C-130 verifying that the so called plane had crashed into the Pentagon. And uh...

Fetzer: Well that's an interesting conjecture. Now there was a C-130 up there, and I think it was coordinating things. And I believe that the plane that it was probably under control from that C-130. I think that's all correct. I would be surprised if that specific weapon that you described had been used at the Pentagon. The original hit point, you can find photographs of it on two different websites go to assassinationscience.com a public issues website I have maintained for years. Scroll down the menu bar to 9/11 websites and the second one says 20 studies plus. Click on that 20 studies plus, you'll find immediately a photograph of the hitpoint it's rather small, it's only about 10 feet high and maybe 16-17 feet wide. There's unbroken...

James in Salt Lake City: That's what this missile does. It makes a small hole.

Fetzer: Yeah. Too small for the weapon you are describing. The amount of damage wasn't great enough.
Wow. I am stunned, we actually found a theory that is too stupid for Jim Fetzer. That has got to be a first. Although he still calls it "interesting conjecture". Is there any type of of conjecture he doesn't find interesting?

For those of you who aren't that familiar with military ordinance. This is Big Blue.












No, that is not a missile, although he is correct in stating it is dropped out of a C-130. And as for the claim that it is used to punch small holes in concrete. Here is a description of its affects:

The BLU-82 combines a watery mixture of ammonium nitrate and aluminum with air, then ignites the mist for a huge explosion that incinerates everything within up to 600 yards. The shock wave can be felt miles away.

The BLU-82 uses about six times the amount of ammonium nitrate explosive that Timothy McVeigh used in the bomb that blew up the Oklahoma City federal building in 1995.

Well I am glad the members of Utah Rally for Peace are out there finding the truth.

Update: Here is a video of this type of bomb. I am surprised the Loose Change boys didn’t include it in one of the versions of there movie. They seem to like things that go boom.

Oh, so now we dropped BOMBS on the Pentagon?

Can anyone let me know how all this was done while an aircraft was hurtling towards the Pentagon? Did Rumsfeld come up with this plan in seconds?

Maybe we can all refer to that "Tom Flocco" story about how Barbara Olson was arrested on the Austrian-Polish border, a borderline that does not exist.

Kinda off topic, but is that weapon kinda' like the one that was used in the movie "Outbreak"?

Or have I just not had enough coffee yet this morning?

Malcolm,

You are talking about Occams Razor... the problem is that the CT looneys TRULY believe that they are proposing the simplist and most logical theory of 9/11, and that the Official Story is the one with logical leaps.

I'm serious.

Look in the SLC archives and you'll see I'm not kidding.

But doubting everything you see, and seeing the boogie man in every shadow is just neurotic

Oh, read some of the CTers posts here and you will soon see it goes far, far, far beyond neurosis.

I don't remember who, but someone here posted that explosives were built in to the trade center WHEN IT WAS CONSTRUCTED, and that the most credible and probable theory in his eyes.

Then you have Nesnyc who actually believes that the jews/zionists will establish a new world order lead by Queen Beatrix of the Netherlands and Prince Harry of England. (paraphrasing, I know Nessie)

Add in to the mix the No planers and you get a bunch of psychotics that need far more specialized treatment than for common neurosis.

They are truly wicky in the wacky woo.

Joan/Chad:

Correction: What you see there is a "Daisy Cutter". It is not a fuel air bomb. I believe the explosive effect is somewhat similar but the mechanism is different. A fuel air bomb works by using a bursting charge to atomize and scatter the fuel, then the fuel ignites.

The Big Blue and the MOAB work on a similar principle, but you're right, they're not considered fuel-air explosive. The weapon in the movie "Outbreak" may have been the BLU-95/96 (which ARE fuel-air explosives), although I'm not certain on that so don't quote me.

Juji:

That was Nazinyc if I remember correctly. In any event, he's the only one around here crazy enough to come up with that. Joan and BG were never THAT out of 'er.

Alex,

Was it really him?

The sad thing is that is actually some of the SANER stuff that he's posted.

Wow.

And I don't know, BG was/is a no planer. But yeah, compared to the newwer loonies, he is a genius.

Yup, Killtown had a post on his blog about how Occam's Razor supports the inside jobbers, while completely missing the meaning.

He said Occam's Razor supports them because it "says" that a bunch of coincidences means there is a conspiracy afoot - when, in actuality, Occam's Razor says they're just a bunch of coincidences.
