Life-long Republican believes only piece of Flight 77 wreckage was

planted

at Pentagon on 9/11

Right wing conservatives would probably say " it'll be a cold day in

hell "

before one of their own portrayed President Bush as a fascist and a

bold-faced

liar about the 9/11 attacks and his motives behind the Iraq war.

 

But that's just what Jim Hanson of Columbus, Ohio, a longtime

Republican

and former district campaign manager for Richard Nixon, thinks of our

bible-toting, gun slinging President.

 

To prove his point, the 70-year-old retired attorney recently spent

$9,000

to place a ½ page ad in the Columbus Dispatch, denouncing the Bush

administration specifically concerning one photo of the Pentagon

crash, which he

claims will prove government complicity in 9/11.

 

A registered Republican for more than 50 years, Hanson claims he has

no

" axe to grind " with the GOP, but after spending three years

researching the

events surrounding 9/11, he is convinced the government is either

complicit in

the attacks or had prior knowledge.

 

" They needed something big, something to instill fear into the

American

people, " said Hanson. " The WTC attacks was their Pearl Harbor and I'm

positive

it didn't occur the way the Bush administration claims. I've

concluded the story

lacks credibility and makes little sense.

 

" After researching 9/11, I finally felt obligated to come forward,

especially about a military photo taken of a piece of wreckage off

Flight 77.

After blowing up the photo and matching rivets to those of the 757

that

supposedly crashed into the Pentagon, I found there wasn't a match.

This piece

of wreckage was from a different plane.

 

" If it can be proved that this piece didn't come from Flight 77, it

would

open the door, exposing the rest of the government conspiracy. "

 

The key photo of a four-foot section of the plane's body was snapped

by

Army Times staff photographer, Mark D. Faram right after the crash.

It was then

quickly distributed to the media and remains the only piece of

wreckage of

Flight 77 ever made public.

 

After thoroughly investigating the matter, Hanson said the plane that

hit

the Pentagon wasn't Flight 77, yet the Bush administration has gone

to great

lengths to keep hidden any trace of Flight 77.

 

" Not only didn't the rivets match in the photo I blew up, but also

there

was a curious piece of wood or what I have determined to be a liana

vine,

imbedded into the aluminum piece of wreckage, " said Hanson, who has

gone to

great pains to study this aspect of the photo.

 

" Why would there be vines or branches imbedded into the aluminum when

the

plane hit a brick wall? Logically, it must the piece must have come

from another

757. I then found out that another 757 went down in the South

American jungle in

1995, where liana vines (similar to wicker) grow abundantly. "

 

Hanson then called the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB)

and was

told the wreckage of the 757 that crashed in the jungle was being

held in a

military disposal site for investigation. The specific location of

the wreckage

site, however, was unknown.

 

" I think the military substituted this piece of wreckage in an

attempt to

deceive the public, in an attempt to make them believe Flight 77 hit

the

Pentagon when it didn't.

 

" If it can be proven that the piece of wreckage in the photo came from

another plane, the only piece of hard evidence that Flight 77

actually hit the

Pentagon can be refuted, " added Hanson. Why hasn't the photographer

been

questioned or why didn't Farem testify before the 9/11 Commission? "

 

Attempts for several weeks to reach Farem have been unsuccessful by

telephone or email.

 

Critics from the outset have doubted the government story that Flight

77

actually hit the Pentagon. Independent investigators found the lack

of physical

evidence, contradictory eyewitness testimony as well as size and

point of impact

 

 

discrepancies have indicated a smaller type of military plane or

missile

crashed into the Pentagon, not a 757.

 

" I think this one mistake regarding the military photo, could bring

down

the house of cards and expose the entire conspiracy, " said Hanson,

who said he

is continuing his investigation until the truth is discovered. " I am

no longer

affiliating myself with the Republican Party considering the

outrageous acts

that have been perpetrated on the American people. This is beyond

politics. This

is outright fascism. "

 

As other 9/11 conspiracy advocates contend, Hanson also believes the

Bush

administration used the attacks as a way to frighten and convince

Americans that

the pre-emptive war in Iraq was justified under the name of terrorism.

 

" One day the truth will be told and it will show the deception of the

Bush

administration. The WTC attacks, the war in Iraq and the Patriot Act

are all

apart of this administration's scheme to radically change our foreign

and

domestic policies, which will have grave consequences for years to

come.

 

" I believe we must continue to investigate and demand questions about

9/11

since the Bush White House is built like a house of cards. One day,

when the

truth be told, it will all come crumbling down. "
