BWHHAAAAAAHHHAAHAHAHAHA!

I love it when a kook plays "detective" and thinks he's hit the
jackpot!!

Sadly for you, it's us "shills" who hit the mother load of laughs when
it happens.

Thanks for the laugh, you don't know how much I needed one this
morning...

The government coverup shills and people in chonic denial will all spout
their ad-hominem attacks, unsubstantiated denials, and nit-picking arguments
about this, but the truth is clear given the preponderance of evidence of
the 9/11 INSIDE JOB.

From the very start, something smelled crooked in the fact that NORAD, the
world's most sophisticated aerospace defense system, TOTALLY FAILED to
intercept EVEN ONE of the FOUR allegedly hijacked passenger jets flying at
subsonic speeds towards known terrorist targets for over an hour.

Can you say CONSPIRACY?

That is correct. It also cannot tell you the identity of a given contact. If
you don't already know who it is, and cannot establish voice communications,
it's just a plane. With thousands of planes in the air on the morning of
9/11, deciding which one was a hijacked plane, using only primary RADAR
information, would be like finding the tip of a needle in a haystack.

If the Russian or Chinese plane took off from an airport within the US
(prior to 9/11), then yes, it would easily go undetected as a threat.

It's pretty easy to identify threats coming from outside the US, as you can
see the contact approaching the US from outside US borders, flying towards
the US. If that plane has no transponder, then you attempt to establish
voice communications to ID the aircraft. If that doesn't work, you send up
an intercept to ID it.

Because you're an uneducated kook. Thinking is far beyond your abilities.

What does that have to do with identifying a particular domestic aircraft?

OK. So the AWACS could have ID'd that there were in fact, domestic flights
in the area. How could he have ID'd any unknown aircraft as specifically
being flight 77?

OK. So now you're tracking all the flights you've ordered to land in the DC
area. How do you know which of them is flight 77?

> The Pentagon-White House Corridor Is Highly-Monitored


It's also heavily traveled by aircraft of all types, including domestic
flights.

Are they? In what manner?

Actually, you've focused on showing us your limited knowledge and
understanding of RADAR and air defenses.

ROFLMAO! Good research nut job. The US military owns how many AWACS
aircraft? Talk to me about how many E2's and E3's there are in the US
military.

You say 4? Is that two of each? Three of one, one of the other? All four
E2's? All four E3's? Which is it?

Yup. It'd all be ****, because you haven't a clue of the facts.

I was going to do that, but the loon had stated AWAC, so I gave it the benefit
of the doubt.

You and I are much more intelligent and can handle the extra information.

I admit to being one. Don't you see the screen name? Gov.shill. I am #2 in the

this perfectly serviceable elevator...
