Oh, wait. I forgot. People heard something that "sounded like" a bomb, which means it was a bomb, because people never use similes. And that's direct evidence that you're right.

I never said that witnesses who heard something that sounded like a bomb proves it was a bomb. You should be able to understand that from my post and not need to reply with unmerited sarcasm.

And as far as those eyewitnesses, I did rather mean the ones outside who said, "Hey, look! A big frickin' plane!" What's more, we've had, on this very board, someone who was there who said, here, "Hey! It was a big frickin' plane!"

I know which witnesses you meant. I was pointing out that other witnesses saw something(s) entirely different than "a big frickin' plane". So there are many varying witness accounts, which means that evidence is still very much in question.

As for cordite, correct me if I'm wrong, people who know more than I do, but do they even use that in most bombs?

The Wikipedia source linked earlier does say...Cordite N, a triple-base propellant is also used (see below). Cordite is classified as an explosive, but it is normally used as a propellant for guns and rockets.., which acknowledges cordite is still being used today in weaponry. But it does not provide any details of current usage in the main body of text.

That cordite is commonly used today is explained on several sites....

Cordite N is used as a propellant in aircraft gun ammunition. It actually contains three main explosive components. These components are nitroguanidine, nitrocellulose, and nitroglycerin. Cordite N is very cool burning, with little smoke and no flash, and has a higher velocity or burning rate than Ballistite.

A recent article quotes a US officer, describing the unforgettable smell of cordite in the aftermath of an explosion while in Iraq....

They describe a deafening blast, a flash of light, dirt and shrapnel flying everywhere as they scramble to help wounded teammates who have blood coming out both ears, shrapnel stuck in their foreheads. Others describe the frustration of dealing with an invisible enemy, of close calls from bombs buried too deep to do serious damage.

"There's this smell of cordite. You never forget that smell," said Capt. Dave Beall, a 25-year-old intelligence officer who tracks IED trends for the 3-509.

I thought I'd post the above as it relates to the Pentagon witness who also mentioned the unmistakable smell of cordite. This is also noted by Tog...

For someone to say the blast smelled like cordite was very odd, given how little chance there was it would be used in a bomb, and the fact that they would have to have more than a passing knowledge of cordite to not confuse it with some other, more common, type of explosive.

That cordite is still used has been shown. That the smell of cordite is virtually "unmistakable" for those who first experience it has been shown. I don't say this is "proof" of explosives, based only on a few witness accounts - but it is something that is worthy of consideration in terms of what actually happened.

I've seen pictures of plane bits posted on this very board. Statements of people who helped with the recovery, also posted on this board, have stated uniequivocally that they saw plane bits. In fact, the only person I've encountered who's unaware of all those plane bits is, well, you.

. I don't rule out the possibility that more than one object may have hit the Pentagon. My point is that if those are "plane bits", that alone is not evidence of Flight 77 "plane bits".

Was that small hole you saw perhaps a big one obscured by smoke? Because the people there say they saw a big, plane-shaped hole where the wings of the plane had completely disappeared into the building.

So the claim is that the wings "disappeared into the building" as they punched holes in the wall. Like at the WTC? Where are the punched holes from the wings in any photos?

I can't believe you're unaware of the identification of people on the plane. I really can't.

I didn't say I was "unaware" of the id's. I said I am skeptical of the results.

In short, no, I'm not going to provide documentation for you, because it's already been done, over and over. I would suggest, that if you want documentation, you look for it here on this board in many, many posts that are replies to you. But I rather doubt you want documentation, because if you did, you'd already be aware of it. It's been shown to you often enough.

I mean documentation beyond what has been provided so far. That is, something that is beyond varying and opposing interpretation as evidence for Flight 77 hitting the Pentagon.

But don't worry. Like I said, if there is actually any evidence for undeniable proof in existence anywhere, it is out of our sight, and in the hands and control of the FBI, etc.
