The problem with the PM article attacking is that the missile and the pod theories created by straw men have already been debunked by numerous 9/11 activists long before PM even wrote the debunking 9/11 article...

There are too many links to 9/11 activists debunking the pod on the plane theory.

FACT (from popular mechanics): In the decade before 9/11, NORAD intercepted only one civilian plane over North America: golfer Payne Stewart's Learjet, in October 1999. With passengers and crew unconscious from cabin decompression, the plane lost radio contact but remained in transponder contact until it crashed. Even so, it took an F-16 1 hour and 22 minutes to reach the stricken jet.

Wrong.
From Sept. 11 to June, NORAD scrambled jets or diverted combat air patrols 462 times, almost seven times as often as the 67 scrambles from September 2000 to June 2001, Martin said.

FACT (from popular mechanics): As they pancaked, all that air--along with the concrete and other debris pulverized by the force of the collapse--was ejected with enormous energy. "When you have a significant portion of a floor collapsing, it's going to shoot air and concrete dust out the window," NIST lead investigator Shyam Sunder tells PM. Those clouds of dust may create the impression of a controlled demolition, Sunder adds, "but it is the floor pancaking that leads to that perception."

Wrong. As you can see in the area of puff of clouds ejecting, there is no sign of floor pancaking or trusses failing, otherwise cracks around the concrete on the outside of the building would be clearly visible.
The PM attack on the 9/11 activists is extremely dishonest and misleading. Only reason why people bought into it is because of the credibility of PM.
Blanco, yeah yeah...hey I was wondering that since you live in the New York area, is it true that there was a catapaulting of propaganda on television all over NY showing repeated image of planes crashing/towers falling for a long period of time after the catalyzing event of 9/11? I remember here in my home state, it was forbidden to show these catastrophic images on television. In fact, the forbidding of showing these images took effect only a week after 9/11.
