“The Pentagon Attack In Context” with Tod Fletcher, on KFPA’s “Guns and Butter.”
Tod Fletcher, one of 22 researchers on the 9/11 Consensus Panel, explains how the Consensus Panel works, and presents a contextual approach to analyzing events at the Pentagon, about which there has been a great deal of confusion.
Fletcher also discusses the lack of evidence to support the official claims regarding the hijacker story and the telephone calls from the planes. He then presents a cogent analysis of eyewitness reports, the physical debris, the photographic and video evidence, and the missing black boxes.
This evidence-packed interview, originally broadcast September 3, 2014 at 1:00 PM Pacific time, is now available online.
Editor’s Note: Although individual Panel Members may have their own views about what impacted the Pentagon, the 9/11 Consensus Panel has not yet undertaken a full 22-member review of this controversial subject.
June 2, 2014 – The 24-member 9/11 Consensus Panel – which includes physicists, chemists, engineers, commercial pilots, attorneys and lawyers – today announced three new studies confirming the controlled demolition of World Trade Center 7.
The studies scientifically refute the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) claim that, for the first time in history, fire caused the sudden and complete collapse of a large, fire-protected, steel-framed building on 9/11.
(Note that whereas the Consensus Panel uses a scientific methodology to peer-review its work, the NIST report was not peer-reviewed.)
The first Panel study deals with the NIST computer simulations, which purported to show that fire-induced thermal expansion caused a girder to be pushed off its seat at Column 79, thereby initiating a global collapse of the entire 47-storey building at 5:21 in the afternoon.
However, a recent FOIA request has produced WTC 7 architectural drawings showing that the NIST simulations omitted basic structural supports that would have made this girder failure impossible.
The second Consensus Panel study deals with NIST’s claim that it did not recover any steel from this massive steel-frame skyscraper.
This is extraordinary, given the need to understand why a steel-frame building would have completely collapsed for the first time in history from fire alone, and to thereby prevent a recurrence.
We know now that some of the steel was recovered. Photographs recently obtained by researchers show the strange curled-up paper-thin WTC 7 steel, with a NIST investigator pointing it out.
The third Panel study shows that on September 11, 2001, many people were told hours in advance that WTC 7 was going to collapse.
MSNBC reporter Ashleigh Banfield said early in the afternoon: “I’ve heard several reports from several different officers now that that is the building that is going to go down next.”
Many members of the New York Fire Department were confidently waiting for the building to come down:
Firefighter Thomas Donato: “We were standing, waiting for seven to come down. We were there for quite a while, a couple hours.”
Assistant Commissioner James Drury: “I must have lingered there. There were hundreds of firefighters waiting to – they were waiting for 7 World Trade Center to come down.”
Chief Thomas McCarthy: “So when I get to the command post, they just had a flood of guys standing there. They were just waiting for 7 to come down.”
In addition, CNN and the BBC made premature announcements.
This foreknowledge corroborates the evidence presented in previous Consensus Points (WTC7-1 to WTC7-5) that WTC 7 was brought down by controlled demolition.

PRESS RELEASE
NEW YORK, November 20, 2013 – This year, the 50th anniversary of JFK’s assassination, saw Edward Snowden and Glenn Greenwald cast a sweeping spotlight over pervasive, illegal “deep state” spying on US citizens and allies.
Widespread public awareness of these “state crimes against democracy” is a game-changer for re-opening the past as well as the present.
To honor the life of JFK, the 9/11 Consensus Panel today highlights a scholarly work that meticulously exposes the Warren Commission’s cover-up of JFK’s state-crime murder.
Oliver Stone wrote that “James W. Douglass’ ‘JFK and the Unspeakable: Why He Died and Why it Matters’ is the best account I have read of this tragedy … it deserves the attention of all Americans; it is one of those rare books that, by helping us understand our history, has the power to change it.”
Jim Douglass, whose work with the “unspeakable” helps us to grasp the ruthless nature of the deep state, writes:
“Dallas laid the foundation for 9/11. If you understand JFK’s murder, you understand it all – including the obvious truth that buildings don’t just fall down the way the U.S. government said they did. The JFK story is a lens of truth through which we can see our world and how to change it.”
JFK scholar Craig Ciccone compares the events:
“The more I delved into 9/11, the sicker I became. The similarities between both cases – from the actual events to the “official” investigations – are frightening. Like the JFK case, 9/11 boasts the unapologetic ignoring of the laws of physics and aerodynamics; the destruction of evidence; countless attempts to make the evidence fit a predetermined story; undeniable conflicts of interest of the investigating body; and the preposterous handling of the eye- and ear-witnesses.”
Similarly, Dr. David Ray Griffin’s scholarship shows that 38 years later, the deep state either permitted 9/11 to happen, or caused it to happen.
The 9/11 Commission Report (described by Harper’s Magazine as a “whitewash,” defrauding the nation) contrived a cover-up that has been soundly refuted by many peer-reviewed engineering, physics, and chemistry studies.
2013 also saw the release of Massimo Mazzucco’s expansive landmark documentary, replete with 9/11 witness testimonies, now joining the engineering classic, “Experts Speak Out.”
The peer-reviewed evidence of the 23-member 9/11 Consensus Panel is available in Dutch, Spanish, Italian, French, and English.

The 23-member 9/11 Consensus Panel has conducted three rounds of review, during which the Panelists were blind to one another, to produce five new Consensus Points refuting the official evidence of 9/11:
- Seismic evidence of large underground explosions beneath the Twin Towers
- Physical and testimonial evidence of explosions beneath the Twin Towers
- Molten metal running below the Twin Towers’ debris for weeks after 9/11
- The failure — after 7 years of effort — of the National Institute of Standards and Technology to produce a computer simulation of the collapse of World Trade Center 7 that matched the visual collapse
- A serious problem in the timeline of the famous “Let’s Roll” call from Flight 93, which was used as a call to war
This brings the total number of Consensus Points to 37.
The 12-minute broadcast by Russia Today is called “9/11 and Operation Gladio”. It includes four members of the 9/11 Consensus Panel, including Dr. Daniele Ganser, author of “NATO’s Secret Armies,” Dr. Graeme MacQueen, co-editor of the “Journal of 9/11 Studies,” engineer and 9/11 researcher Jonathan Cole, and Elizabeth Woodworth, Co-founder with Dr. David Ray Griffin and Coordinator of The 9/11 Consensus Panel.
The show was broadcast five times and was viewed online during its first day of exposure by 100,000 people.
Award-winning film-maker Massimio Mazzucco (@IMDb), a member of the 9/11 Consensus Panel, today released his comprehensive documentary, “September 11 – The New Pearl Harbor” (@IMDb). This educational 5-hour film, three years in the making and offered in 7 Parts, summarizes 12 years of public debate on 9/11.
Mazzucco writes, “While aimed primarily at a general, uninformed audience, the film also contains some new findings that may be of interest to advanced researchers. This film is intended as an educational, non-profit operation, and must remain so in order to fulfill all the requirements for the usage of copyrighted material. As such, the entire film is made available online for free from day one.”
The film is also available as 3 DVD’s, and has been translated into French and Italian (soon to become available online).
The contents of the documentary are indexed on Mr. Mazzucco’s website for ease of access to specific topics.
In the event of a hijacking, pilots are trained to “squawk” the universal hijack code (7500) on a transponder, thereby notifying FAA controllers on the ground.
Although it only takes two or three seconds, the fact that not one of the eight pilots performed this required action casts serious doubt on the hijacker story. Read more …

There were over 300 security cameras at Dulles International Airport on September 11, 2001, which retained their images for 30 days, and which were painstakingly examined by information systems technicians and monitored by federal agents. The US government did not release a single time-stamped video or any of the images from these 300 security cameras.
The 9/11 Consensus is pleased to welcome Judge Ferdinando Imposimato as an Honorary member:
Mr. Ferdinando Imposimato is the Honorary President of the Italian Supreme Court and a former Italian senior investigative judge. He presided over several terrorism-related cases, including the kidnapping and assassination of President Aldo Moro and the attempted assassination of Pope John Paul II. He was also a legal consultant to the United Nations. He has stated publicly that 9/11 was a false flag operation, recommending that it be tried at the International Criminal Court, which was set up to protect the world from criminal acts of war. He has also written the books, “The Big Lie,” “International Terrorism,” “The Republic of Unpunished Tragedies,” and “The 55 Days That Changed Italy,” about the Aldo Moro case.

According to GTE telephone supervisor Lisa Jefferson, who took the phone call from Todd Beamer, the phone remained connected long after UA 93 crashed. Reporting that he had left the phone after saying “Let’s roll,” she wrote that the line “just went silent.” Although she held on for “probably 15 minutes”, she “never heard a crash.” She added: “I can’t explain it. We didn’t lose a connection because there’s a different sound that you use. It’s a squealing sound when you lose a connection. I never lost connection, but it just went silent.”
