"...the US shot down Flight 93..."
which would have been the best protocol under the circumstances, better than having it dive into the whitehouse or anywhere urban.
All evidence points to that plane breaking apart in the air not on the ground by the size of the debris field.
I'm sorry lil' buddy, but what in Allah's name could possibly give you the idea that this single crater was caused by a plane that had multiple large peices falling to Earth?
None, the plane was intact.
I was not aware that planes make big craters when they crash.
Explosives do, though.
Wow. Just wow. You can't possibly be so deluded that you don't realize an airliner impacting the ground would create a crater. Especially if it dove steeply into mother earth. Come on, get a grip.
According to eyewitnesses it was flying low, roughly 40 feet up, and upside down, as it came in. Then it was turning end over end, and then it fell.
So that crater is the supposed result of a fall from an altitude of roughly 40 feet.
More interesting are the observations that there was no wreckage that exceeded a couple feet long. And that there were parts of the plane MILES in front of the flight path.
The suggestion is that the plane was hit early, but non-fatally, and it was crashing of its own accord, before either it crashed in a way that the fuel turned into a bomb, or it was struck a second time.
The evidence from the 911 call that said the plane was hit in the air. Then the magnitude of the explosion and size of pieces of wreckage.
------------------
a telling detail came minutes before the plane went down when dispatchers at the Westmoreland County Emergency Operations Center intercepted a frantic cell phone call made to 911 by a passenger aboard the doomed flight.
"We are being hijacked, we are being hijacked!" the man told dispatchers in a quivering voice during a conversation that lasted about one minute.
"We got the call about 9:58 this morning from a male passenger stating that he was locked in the bathroom of United Flight 93 traveling from Newark to San Francisco, and they were being hijacked," said Glenn Cramer, a 911 supervisor.
"We confirmed that with him several times and we asked him to repeat what he said. He was very distraught. He said he believed the plane was going down.
He did hear some sort of an explosion and saw white smoke coming from the plane, but he didn't know where.
"And then we lost contact with him."
