Conspiracy theory: the Pentagon
Sep. 5th, 2004 12:58 pmThe main focus of September 11th has always been on the World Trade Center. This is why the Republicans held their convention in New York City, rather than Washingtin D.C. or Shanksville, Pennsylvania. Rural PA just doesn't seem to hold the same emotional sway with the public as New York City does (to say nothing of Washington D.C.), making it unsuitable for manipulative purposes. With this focus on the twin towers, it has become quite easy to brush the other two plane hijackings under the carpet of the public consciousness. Many would see this film as food for conspiracy theorists, however it does raise some interesting questions. First and foremost: why is the government allegedly withholding videotaped evidence of the plane that flew into the Pentegon? Interesting.
