On the evening of July 17, 1996, at 8:19 p.m., TWA Flight 800, a Boeing 747, took off from Kennedy Airport, bound for Paris. At 8:31 p.m., over 730 people watched Flight 800 explode, killing all 230 of the people aboard.
Not long afterwards, millions of Americans watched their televisions in fascinated horror as search and rescue crews looked desperately for survivors among the flaming debris. Only dead bodies were recovered.
Flight 800 is mostly an ugly memory for people these days. The U.S. government issued an explanation that a fuel tank had somehow exploded. Yet, they flatly denied any evidence existed of foul play, including the possibility that Flight 800 had been blown out of the air by a missile.
All but a few journalists accepted the government’s version of events. Few bothered to investigate the numerous eyewitnesses, the radar records and the physical evidence that all suggested a strikingly different explanation of Flight 800’s untimely demise. And those few who did question the government’s version were made to look like fools or, worse, thrown in jail and prosecuted as criminals for meddling in an official investigation.
What really happened to Flight 800? In light of recent FBI disclosures of buried evidence that have resulted in a postponement of the execution of convicted Oklahoma City bomber Timothy McVeigh, new questions are being raised about other high-profile U.S. government terrorism investigations – including the explosion of TWA Flight 800 in 1996.
Tomorrow, WorldNetDaily begins a five-part series of explosive commentaries by independent writer and Emmy-award-winning producer Jack Cashill detailing what he has learned in the course of producing “Silenced: Flight 800 and The Subversion of Justice,” a documentary video that presents compelling evidence that Flight 800 was indeed shot down by missile fire – and that a massive cover-up by the federal government followed this tragic event.
Says Cashill, “The cover-up is so spectacularly brazen, and the truth is so obvious, it stuns even a cynic. To watch ‘Silenced’ is to come away a believer.”
Be sure not to miss Cashill’s commentaries this week, starting tomorrow in Monday’s edition of WorldNetDaily.
“Silenced: Flight 800 and The Subversion of Justice,” is available only through WorldNetDaily’s online store. Be sure to get your copy now while copies are still available.
