Man...Astonishing documentary alleges seriously that the U.S. government-including the FBI and DOJ-are corrupt and cover-up the truth concerning the mysterious crash of TWA Ft 800 on July 17, 1996.
Flight 800 was possibly destroyed by a surface-to-air missile or missiles. Every allegation made in this film is backed up with facts also dramatic are those that come from the Federal agencies themselves.
Shared is what hundreds ( more than 700 ) official eyewitnesses actually saw; why aviators reject the CIA "cartoon" explanation; how the Feds criminally suppressed reporting; the damning radar data and documentation; the critical witness drawings; the rigged NTSB hearings; the altered physical evidence; undeniable proof of explosive residue proving a missile strike; the stinging report from the machinist union. What I want to know ? WHY ? WHY ? WHY ?

Writer-director Kristina Borjesson has assembled a fascinating, frustrating, anger-causing documentary on TWA Flight 800, the ill-fated Boeing 747-100 which, in 1996, exploded over the shores of Long Island just minutes after takeoff from JFK Airport en route to Paris, France. Borjesson is very careful not to immediately point fingers and declare a massive government cover-up (in the interest of a juicy exposΓ©; we're all fascinated by conspiracies). Instead, she establishes a cover-up with her evidence. TWA Flight 800 was very clearly shot down by three separate missiles, all deliberately launched in order to take that plane down. The FBI, the CIA and the NTSB (National Transportation Safety Board) each concluded there was no external foul play involved in the crash, that the internal problem was located in the plane's center fuel tank (it even says so on the memorial!). After viewing the witness testimonials and evidence, one can see this is utter nonsense. The underlying horror of this film is the fact the nightly news (via the powers-that-be) is giving falsified reports to the public--and the public is asked to believe every word of it because, after all, these guys are the experts. *** from ****
I'm a research librarian who teaches information literacy to college students. Information literacy is essentially how to find, evaluate, and use credible information. There is such an onslaught of bogus information out there that it's sometimes hard to know what's actually true. One way is to look at primary source documents such as video, photographs, interviews and original research conducted at the time of events. Those involved with this documentary went to great lengths through such means as Freedom of Information Act lawsuits, to gather together primary source documents that, when viewed together with expert testimony from those directly involved in the original investigation, create a much more plausible scenario than the official findings released by the FBI and NTSB.
I would be highly suspicious of one-star reviews stating things like "Opinions predominate, facts are scarce." I'm someone trained to know the difference and I can say quite confidently that this is not a "conspiracy film" based on innuendo and the convictions of those who hate and distrust the Federal Government. This is a well-researched documentary that asks us to consider an alternative conclusion to the one presented by the FBI and NTSB...a conclusion based on the actual evidence. I for one am convinced and I hope this film will generate enough public outcry to force the NTSB and FBI to reopen the investigation or at the very least, be more forthcoming about their actual findings.

Thank you to the courageous Americans who are putting their reputation on the line to bring up the lies we were told about TWA flight 800. Watch out for "reviewers" who attack the documentary with the intent to discourage people from watching it and coming to their own conclusions. I recall watching a retired Air Force Pilot who went on CSPAN debunk this "center fuel tank explosion" theory years ago, and he was a credible as any person I've listened to. That was when I first realized (sadly I admit) that our government lies to us and that they cannot be trusted. I am a psychologist and I'm frightened at how psychology was referenced by the government to imply that eye witness testimony is so unreliable as a means to discredit hundreds of eye witnesses to what was a very basic event (little details to get mixed up). Listen to the eye witnesses in this documentary and see for yourself if they seem credible. I've watched lots of documentaries and I don't often agree with them because I think they don't provide all of the details or distort the facts. I also look for who has an agenda to push. I see no ulterior motives with those who are interviewed for this movie. I just recommend that you watch it for yourself, and if it's your first exposure to how easily our government lies to its citizens, be prepared to be discouraged (and hopefully motivated to make some changes).
I just saw this flick on Pluto TV. I thought it was a great documentary about all the evidence tampering and ignoring of eye witnesses to the demise of Flight 800 off the coast of Long Island, NY. The question is why????? Why did missiles shoot this plane out of the sky. Who shot the missiles and why did the CIA and the NTSB (National Transportation Safety Board) go to so much trouble to inject false information and make sure the truth was never told. We all knew the CIA was lying about what happened to JFK and JFK, Jr., now we can add this tragedy to the list of their lies. The most amazing part of this flick is preventing the numerous eye witnesses from testifying at the four-year long investigation into the plane crash. The film is a good expose of how psychopaths who run our government contrive the official story. Jason Goodman, an internet reporter, has a frequent guest named David Hawkins who reverse engineers crime scenes by studying patents that could be involved in or leased for committing crimes. Hawkins believes a reason these sort of events happen is because bored, wealthy,global elite psychos bet on how long it will take to kill everyone and / or how many people will survive. According to Hawkins, these psychos consider the demise of Flight 800 or the demolition of the twin towers on 911 to be a "snuff film" which they can watch and re-watch to get their jollies. .
Did you know
- GoofsBasic military air crash investigation techniques reveal that an external explosion would have peppered the airframe, fuselage and wings full of holes, much like a shotgun blast. If these holes were present, microscopic examination would reveal what direction the external force came from.
Furthermore micro cratering would be present on the crash debris from molten metal striking the aircraft at high speed.
None of these features are present on TWA 800 crash debris.
