Rumsfeld Says PA 9/11 Plane Shot Down
WASHINGTON – Ever since Sept. 11, 2001, there have been questions about Flight 93, the ill-fated plane that crashed in the rural fields of Pennsylvania.

The official story has been that passengers on the United Airlines flight rushed the hijackers in an effort to prevent them from crashing the plane into a strategic target – possibly the U.S. Capitol.

During his surprise Christmas Eve trip to Iraq, Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld referred to the flight being shot down – long a suspicion because of the danger the flight posed to Washington landmarks and population centers.

1. don't post from World Net Daily
World Net Daily is a hardcore RW nut site. You're not supposed to link us to them. If Rumsfield said this, find it on another, not far-RW site.

the fact that WND thinks this is LBNs in itself is very interesting.

Whatever really happened, the 911 Commission has holes big enough to fly 1-4 airliners through. Start there.

On Edit: I might not be correct about FOX. I somehow managed to confuse them with CNN. How'd I do that?
