edit, there have been more responses.
Well, let's see what we have. Since I posted proof that something about FL 93 was prepared afterwards for a purpose having nothing whatever to do with investigation of FL 93, there have been nine responses. Two each by elmondo and wargord with one each from jimbenarm, jackonary and Big Al [add 1 by switchpoint and 1 by iratant].
Thanks to each and all for those respoonses.
Now, what are we to make of them as a whole? I think we're making progress, to tell you the truth. You folks are coming to recognize that FL 93 cannot be shown to have either flown or crashed on the basis of normal evidence from normal sources.
elmondo, who tends to save indications that he is reaching the point of recognition until the last part of his posts, had this to say:
"...the NTSB did indeed investigate the elements of the crash that were their responsibility..."
Thanks for that elmondo. That is ever so typical of 9/11. Always a limitation, a box, a curtailment. You did not say the NTSB investigated [FL 93], rather, you said NTSB investigated "elements of the crash" meaning they didn't investigate the crash itself.
Look, folks, the basic problem is that you don't require proof of 9/11, for if you did, you wouldn't be defending the indefensible. It is indefensible for NTSB to have investigated "elements of the crash" because that is not normal. Furthermore, if you're going to say NTSB investigated "elements of the crash" who investigated the crash itself, and what did that investigation result in and where are its findings to be found?
There was no investigation of the crash of FL 93 because there was no such thing.
The fact that something as sensitive as the examination of the gte phone calls, something that involves sensitivity towards victims and their families, relies on a claim of investigation done, what, years or months later for another purpose, is utterly indefensible.
Please stop assuming the evidence is there when it isn't. Stop relying on indirect, second-hand sources. As I said before, the jig is up.
There is no valid proof of the proposition that FL 93 crashed in PA on 9/11/01 and you cannot post any, even if you tried. I am not making this up. The most recent serious effort to post up proof consisted in the cell phone proof. I have conclusively shown that proof fails because it wasn't prepared for purpose of proving FL 93 crashed. By its own plain language, it was prepared at a later date for the Moussaoui trial. That means it was prepared by individuals who had no responsibility for investigating FL 93 and was, instead, prepared by folks who had an agenda of framing up Zacarias Moussaoui.
Wow. Silly, twisted logic delivered wholesale. Let's remember something: There is no one, single piece of evidence that proves or disproves the event, and that's why the certainty is so strong: Multiple lines of evidence converge to prove the fate of UA93. Again:
- The FDR, radar data, ATC transmissions combined into the flight path studies.
- The NORAD recordings
- The Moussaoui trial evidence, including such things as the cockpit voice recorder transcripts
- The airfone calls (presentation taken from the Moussaoui trial evidence), plus a simple list of them.
- The DNA evidence.
- The witnesses to Flight 93
- The witnesses to FL93's crash scene
- Family members recounting via cell and airfone calls what the victims saw
- The documented work of the first responders (here's a second, independent study documenting what they did; here's a third), as well as their own observations/testimonies
- Personal effects of Flight 93 victims recovered from the site
- Photos, more photos, even more photos, and even EPA photos of the wreckage
Anyway, the pathology here is clear: Jammonious is demonstrating a Conditional Delusion regarding the authority and veracity of the evidence behind the Flight 93 narrative:
Conditional Irreducible Delusion: Belief that is totally unsupported, and thus impossible or unnecessary to directly refute.
This third class is related to sophistry, and typically manifests as an argument from ignorance. This class is common because the Truth Movement often focuses on the absence of evidence it arbitrarily decides is important, rather than addressing actual evidence. It is also generally followed by a misplaced burden of proof or call to perfection. ”Aircraft were never identified by their component serial numbers” is an example of Conditional Delusion – while vaguely possible, there is no way to prove, and indeed no reason to even suspect, that such checking was never performed. Furthermore, there are numerous other means of unambiguous identification, so without somehow invalidating this other evidence this oversight would have no practical impact even if it was true. As a result, for this claim to be relevant, it must be true, and it is conditional on several unsupported assumptions.
Jammonious indulges in sophistry writ large; again, as an example: Note his attempts to diminish the NTSB's role in the overall investigation. Does it really matter that they were only part of a larger team? Does that invalidate their conclusions drawn from a study of the electronic data? As I said before, the only way the NTSB conclusions can be taken as incorrect is to have not only them, but the information providers - in the case of FL93, the first responders who obtained the flight data recorder, plus the FAA who gave the radar data - be part of "The Plot". That is merely one example; he rejects all evidence with some form of sophistic, fallacious reasoning that doesn't address the accuracy and validity of the evidence.
I don't even need to illustrate his arguments from ignorance; chances are, his response will contain at least one.
Also, look at his misplaced burdens of proof. The narrative set in place by the lines of evidence converging is unambiguous, yet, he places it on us to further prove it. It doesn't matter that we documented the GTE airfone calls, and also linked to GTE staff who listened in, family members who were the recipients, and documentation that the evidence was good enough for a court. No, he sets a silly, irrelevant bar regarding the motives of the "... individuals who had no responsibility for investigating FL 93", ignoring the fact that the individuals who gathered the data have yet to be "corrected" by the people who originated it. No GTE staff member, for example, has expressed any doubt about the veracity of the calls they handled. No family member has either. Yet, the mere possibility that the handler of the information is impugnable is enough for Jammonious to write off the evidence. Nevermind that it has been validated in other ways.
The belief that the evidence is dismissable is convenient for him since he can fill in the blanks with all sorts of fallacious and unsupported explanations. Problem is, it's an avoidance of the evidence itself. Jammonious holds a completely unsupported stance, and until he comes to terms with the error of his fallacious reasoning, there's nothing else to discuss. The evidence stands, his sophistry retailed in the attempt to to invalidate the strength of the evidence fails, and the only thing left to do is marvel at the range of delusion he displays in place of the evidence.
