I don't mean that they missed shooting it down. I mean that they seem to have missed getting a single clear picture of it hitting the building. It's one of the things that fuels the conspiracy whack-jobs.

As I recall, they confiscated video from some nearby businesses, and never showed it to anyone.

That's what I understood. Which is why It never made sense. If they had footage, releasing just a couple of frames would shut most doubters up. The rest would just have new material to work with.

Perhaps because there was nothing to show? There would be no reason NOT to release video of a commercial aircraft hitting the Pentagon, that I can think of, apart from basic propriety. In other words if the video was out there, the media would show it, and it shows a 189 people dying.

The whole "national security" thing about publishing what is essentially a users-guide to that building's weaknesses...

(not saying I agree or disagree here)

Like the one that the conspiracy video "shows" being "launched" by the second plane that hit the towers?
