Is there a cover up going on?

Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
Has anyone elso got any info on the 'HiJack' lastnight?
On teletext last night it said a plane had been hijacked, then later it said it was a hoax and now they are saying it eas a training excercise!
As if anyone would use a real plane filled with real unsuspecting passengers to train on!
What's really going on?
And there's been another possible Air crash/explosion/hijack in Russia -
Is this the begining of more attacks?

    I think youre onto something.

    There was both the Hijack in India and the Russian plane that 'crashed' into the black sea today. There was the greyhound bus over in the states, drivers throat cut and 15 people or so dead from crash. It also looks as though the attack on that chemical factory a couple of weeks back was a terrorist attack according to the BBC.

    Either these things are just freak occurances or we are being kept in the dark. The media and various govts probably doesnt want to scare us.

    It's true they might be covering up so that peoples confidence in the air lines dosn't slip any further

    The fact that we all know about them kind of blow the 'cover-up' theory out of the water - doesn't it?

    The 'Hi-jack' didn't actually happen, but hey, why spoil a good rumour?

    As for the plane explosion and the French explosion - how about Chechens for the Russian plane and Algerians in France? Both of these have been ongoing for some time...

    Just because these event happenned now, doesn't make them linked to WTC. These kind of things have been going on for years now and we need to remember that too.

    That said, when I heard that the Russian flight was from Tel Aviv - I did think of OBL. But why would he attack the French factoy?

    MOK,

    'Just because these events happened now, doesnt make them linked to WTC'

    Youre right but it also doesnt mean they arent linked. Its within the realms of possibility rather than conspiracy theory.

    These attacks may not have anything to do with Bin Laden but rather people sympathetic to his cause or angry at the current state of affairs in the middle east.

    I know, but you shouldn't let your paranoia stop you seeing the forest for the trees.

    The US did that a few years ago, started accusing Isalmic terrorists of carrying out a crime commited by one of it's own countrymen - Tim McVeigh.

    It is worth bearing that in mind, as much as recent events in NYC.

    I don't think they are linked, I was just saying that the gov. doesn't want our confidence in the air lines to slip further so they just play down what has happened.

    But you have to admit the non - hijack is a bit odd

    What airline company would use real people on a real flight to stage a fake 'training' hijack?

    they'd be sued to the moon and back!!!

    So why did the story change so dramatically within hours.
    Also - how can it not be linked to the terrorism trouble? No airline in their right mind would set up a training excercise so soon after the attacks on the WTC - would they?

    Surely, if this was a terrorist event linked to the WTC attack, the US (& NATO) would shout it from the rooftops. It would just add further justification to their cause - especially as this was not a US carrier.

    I suspect that you are searching too hard for a conspiracy within our government. It is one thing to mistrust them, but get a grip...

    Looks like the Russian thing could have been a stray SAM, or even mechanical (we all know how reliable these old Soviet planes are), which would again point away from Bin laden and his crew.

    if were on the conspiracy lark:

    isnt it odd that the FBI 'found' a car parked in boston, with a copy of the koran and a flight manual in arabic?

    and what about that letter, supposedly sent by the lead terrorist, explaining his link to al-Qaeda, which was only 'discovered' days after the car, and even now nobody outside the intel circle has seen it.

    why did GW Bush not go straight to DC or NY after the attacks - why was he ferreted away to first louisiana, then NORAD in nevada?

    and isnt it convenient that Blair didnt have to make his TUC speech, as the attacks happened just a hours before he was due to start.......

    its: A CONSPIRACY!!!!!!

    actually, i dont think it is at all. i think al-Qaeda was behind it, the french, ukranian and US bus incidents were all entirely unrelated, and tony blair is not really the devil incarnate. makes for some interesting ideas though....... <IMG alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/smile.gif"&gt;

    Ive been treating this thread as a bit of a laugh till this comment..It steps WAY over the line.

    I cannot emphasize strongly enough how much I disagree with you here.. Tony Blair IS evil.

    Oh, really?

    Where has the "B" in "Blair" gone?
    Where did the "W" in "Spawn" come from?

    Either you were joking or you just can't spell. At all.

    D'you think it's possible that people die quite often from Anthrax and its only because people are looking out for it that it seems like there's loads of cases?

    Guess not really cos of the letters.
    It is worrying because I work in "The Meeeja" - Media and we could get sent anything through our post room. Security is supposedly stepped up but I really don't know if its that effective.

    No more crashes in the last couple of days - although there were a few last week.

    I believe only two people have died of anthrax in the past century. The last confirmed case was in the 70's..Its extremely rare.

    No - what I mean is undiagnosed Anthrax
    Can it be mistaken for something else?

    Nope, you get anthrax and your doc will know about it and even the most stubborn bloke will go to the doc for anthrax.

    One case in the past 25 or so years then 11 confirmed cases this week. Sounds a little much for coincidence to me.
