A former Republican Party insider turned Bush basher thinks he has stumbled across what may be the “smoking gun,” proving the U.S. government’s official story about the WTC attacks is an “unequivocal lie.”

Karl Schwarz of Little Rock, Ark., who several years ago began exposing corruption amongst the neo-conservative movement in a book entitled A One-Way Ticket to Crawford, Texas, now has set his sights on proving government complicity in 9-11.

Now, moving away from financial corruption, he has turned his attention to the 9-11 truth movement, saying he has found a piece of obscure video footage that shows that the government lied about what type of plane struck the south tower of the WTC.

Schwarz admits he had a “whole lot” of luck when running across the video footage in a French foreign film entitled The Barbarian Invasion.

Contained in the film unrelated to 9-11, is a 1 minute, 52 second, video segment, shot by an unknown amateur photographer at the WTC, which Schwartz says clearly shows a Boeing 737 airliner striking the south tower.

1. FYI

American Free Press articles are not supposed to be posted on DU because they are a front organization for some really ignorant people

Google Willis Carto for info.

2. If there's a video then let's see it

And then let's see the FBI confiscated videos from the Pentagon as well. Whatever evidence is out there, I want to see it. What is the government hiding?

4. That's the one

I have the DVD. As far as I remember, there is a short clip of one of the planes hitting the tower in there somewhere. I'll check it out when I have the time.

5. Voilà !

Vive le Canada francophone ! Schwartz is indeed referring to Denys Arcand's film "Les Invasions Barbares", which I hapened to have on DVD. It's true - there's a short clip in there of the second plane hitting the tower. I just saw it again, it's a clip I've never seen anywhere else, good quality of picture and sound, taken from the ground so you see the plane from below. It's clearly a silvery plane, that much is certain. I don't know much about commercial aircraft, so I have no idea if it's a 767, 757 or 737 or whatever. There was nothing that struck me as "unusual" or different" about it though. If anyone has pictures of these different types of aircraft from below I'll happily do a comparison. I don't know how to post the pictures from the DVD on the internet, sorry.

6. Update

OK, so I found a few photos on the net showing Boeing 737s from below and yes, to me it looks like a perfect match. But it could also well be a 767. I didn't find any pictures of 767s from below though. If I knew the width of the towers I guess I could do a comparison based on that, the 767 is quite a bit larger than the 737.

7. Dead end

I believe this is a dead end. I´ve seen some attempts along these lines and they end up with nothing. Karl Schwartz says he knows the exact angle and distance, and so that will be taken it one step further from the attempts I have seen. ( I´m very sceptical though. )

8. Ditto

He claims that the engine on the street couldn't be from a 767 though. I have no idea if that's true or not. It's rather far fetched, anyway, to think that it weren't the missing planes that slammed into the towers. I need to see some pretty hard evidence before I believe that. Still, it can't hurt to explore every possibility.
