Pentagon Hole

From 911 Encyclopedia:

Holes in the building: From an DU-analysis on the mysterious hole: "...Then you have a picture of a wall with a circular hole in it. There is smoke damage on the top of the hole. Yet and still there appears to be paper and other flamables carefully poured out of that orifice. They are not wet. The heat in that general area was supposedly so intense as to burn all the paint off the aircraft debris, leaving only the green primer. The cables within the cavity are pulled OUT of the hole. Yet the aircraft is supposed to have gone INTO that hole with considerable force..."

Army press release noted back on 26 September 2001, one engine of the aircraft punched a 12-foot hole through the wall of the second ring: "...On the inside wall of the second ring of the Pentagon, a nearly circular hole, about 12-feet wide, allows light to pour into the building from an internal service alley. An aircraft engine punched the hole out on its last flight after being broken loose from its moorings on the plane. The result became a huge vent for the subsequent explosion and fire. Signs of fire and black smoke now ring the outside of the jagged-edged hole. Source: http://www.mdw.army.mil/news/Commentary-Remembering_the_honored_dead.html

Plaguepuppy's (->) reponse: "I'm not surprised that they would claim that an engine had made those holes but neither an engine or the nose of the plane would be dense enough to penetrate two entire buildings. A number of pictures show cleanly punched out holes, ~12' in dia., passing completely through the B and C rings, but ending between C and D. Not to bore you with calculations but the needed density (the kinetic energy is proportional to velocity squared x mass) is far beyond that of the plane or an engine. But a large depleted uranium warhead, the type used in "bunker buster" devices, would do the job nicely."

Demodewd's Missile conclusion (DU->): "...The missile comes in at a 45 degree angle through the first floor and penetrates three rings blowing out numerous columns on the north side of the crash area. The F-16 comes in (crashing into the second floor) at a smaller angle loaded with explosives and a jet fuel fire splatters the Pentagon facade and roof..." Eastman,Dick's thoughts on Reagan Airport: On October 12th, 2001, Rumsfeld mentioned "a missile" right after the attack: "Here we're talking about plastic knives and using an American Airlines flight filed with our citizens, and the missile to damage this building and similar (inaudible) that damaged the World Trade Center." http://www.defenselink.mil/news/Nov2001/t11182001_t1012pm.html
