Pengaton analysis adds important new information, July 12, 2007
This review is from: 9-11 Coup Against America: The Pentagon Analysis (Paperback)
I have been a student of 9/11 since first stumbling upon David Ray Griffin's THE NEW PEARL HARBOR in London, on business, 21 months ago. I bought it for a steeply-discounted price, went back to my room and wound up reading it cover to cover that afternoon.
Before that day, I never gave a second thought to any explanation but the one advanced by the government. Since then, I have read literally everything I could find, including all of Dr. Griffin's landmark work. In this regard, I strongly recommend DEBUNKING 9/11 DEBUNKING, where Dr. Griffin disassembles the thinly-veiled propaganda in the N.I.S.T. report and the Popular Mechanics article.
Circumstantial evidence supporting the non-offical "conspiracy theory" has been gradually growing, both qualitatively and quantitatively since the early months after the attack. THE PENTAGON ANALYSIS adds important new detail, especially regarding the Pentagon attack. In so doing, it buttresses the arguments that what hit the Pentagon was not a 757, that efforts to create artificial evidence in support of the official conspiracy theory was systematically planted, that photos were retouched to hide conspicuous evidence of what really happened and that there was a second flying object (this one definitely a plane) involved, quite possibly in directing the flying object that hit the Pentagon. The author also introduces evidence that bombs may have been planted in the Pentagon to enhance the visual effects of the damage.
Admittedly, the style adopted by this author tends toward the sensational, as compared to the highly restrained, empirical approach favored by Dr. Griffin. Indeed, had my first encounter with 9/11 alternative evidence been this book, not Dr. Griffin's, it might still be sitting on that bookstore shelf!
Nevertheless, the sheer volume of additional circumstantial evidence brought to bear here expands our insights into what really happened that day in D.C.
Anyone who seeks to seriously study 9/11 and gain a well-founded appreciation of the extent to which information coming from the government, as well as elements under its direct or indirect control, was distorted, altered or is flat out bullocks, will find this book priceless.
On the other hand, just reading this book without also studying the work of Dr. Griffin and others will not confer the length and breadth of knowledge needed to overcome any inherent personal resistance to accepting that, yes, elements in government had both the means and the motive to see that the events of 9/11 came off as planned.
Did the plot arise with the patsies who were cast as the perps? I would think it did.
Did the plot largely accomplish its mission solely because of their skill, our incompetence and a measure of luck?
To believe this, in light of the evidence we have now, would take a degree of intellectual dishonesty literally off the radar screen of any objectively-disposed individual.

A tragically great piece of work, February 13, 2008
This review is from: 9-11 Coup Against America: The Pentagon Analysis (Paperback)
This is, or could have been, an extremely important, explosive, even history-making piece of work.
Backing up a moment: Although the work of Gage and Griffin and Jones and many others have made it painfully obvious that the destruction of the WTC complex was via controlled demolition, the mainstream (if that's the right word) 9-11 Truth movement people tend to shy away from looking closely at the Pentagon. Griffin has treated it, but in general the main focus has been on either the WTC specifics of collapse or else the overall logistical context of the attacks - the NORAD standdown, the running of the Atta et al. patsies by the CIA, and so on.
But I've always felt that the Pentagon 757 airliner collision fable is the biggest, baddest, and most easily punctured lie of the whole Hollywoodized 9-11 fairy tale.
It is just so incredibly obvious that no Boeing 757 commercial jet ever hit the Pentagon. Every single element of the official story here is so wildly implausible, falsified, and just ridiculous, everywhere you look, that I don't understand why this angle isn't leading the charge.
I have heard some 9-11 Truthers say they don't want to commit too deeply to a radical deconstruction of the PentaLIE because they think its some kind of honey trap. This means they're afraid that despite the mil.gov never having shown any true video of the 757 hitting the building, they worry that the mil.gov is waiting for leading researchers to commit themselves to a big fancy detailed deconstruction of how no commercial jet ever hit, only to get blindsided down the road by release of a clear, validated video showing beyond any doubt a fat old 757 plowing right in there.
Well if that's their fear, I'm to tell you guys: ain't gonna happen. The only way such a video could be released is if they contact somebody in Hollywood, Wag The Dog style, and make such a thing to spec as a custom order.
Get it guys: No commercial jet plane ever hit the Pengtagon. The story is false from top to bottom. The evidence contradicting the story is mountainous, overwhelming, obvious. And this book is by far the best collection of that tsunami of disproof. He covers every single possible angle and issue related to the false crash. If you had ever believed the PentaLIE for even one moment in the past, you'll be blushing like a beet in shame at your own gullibility before you even get halfway through it.
Then why the "tragic" in my review title? Not referring there to the tragedy of the 9-11 scam, I'm referring to this book specifically. A tragedy is flaw that fatally hobbles potential greatness. The fatal flaw is that this book, despite containing the open and shut proof from a hundred different angle that the PentaLIE was a psy op, is so incredibly badly organized and written that its effectiveness is heavily compromised.
How can this author do such a masterful job of assembling and analyzing all the evidence, yet be barely able to string together a coherent English sentence, much less a seamless logical flow of relevant observations. This isn't just a matter of a few typos - this book is horrendously written and horribly organized, to a degree that seriously compromises it's utility in the 9-11 exposure movement.
But why is such an epochally important book so badly produced, organized, and written?
I would strongly suggest, as a matter of national urgency (I am not being facetious) that this author immediately find a professional partner who understands how to organize material and present it effectively and work overtime with that person to create a completely revised 2nd edition.
If that is done, if this work's flaws of presentation can be corrected, then ultimately Tiradera may be credited as the single most important analyst whose work may yet lead to final exposure of the Biggest Big Lie of the 21st century. And in so doing, maybe he will have saved America (and the world).

Chilling, October 11, 2008
This review is from: 9-11 Coup Against America: The Pentagon Analysis (Paperback)
Chilling. That is the word that keeps coming back to me each time I reread a passage from Peter Tiradera's Pentagon Analysis. The style of this work is that it has no style. At first that bothered me. But that objection quickly faded as the list of chilling facts unfolded before me, seemingly without end. And I am by no means a newcomer to the notion that 9/11 was an inside job. On the contrary, I have read the books by Griffin and Zwicker, I have visted numerous 9/11 web sites, and I have watched my share of videos on the subject. If you are new to the truth about 9/11, the New Pearly Harbor by Griffin is probably the best place to start. It is convincing but "tame" compared to the Pentagon Analysis, which has to be on the reading list of anyone courageous enough to face the truth. Absolutely chilling. Perhaps the book's lack of traditional literary style actually enhances the facts it presents. Not that the facts need any enhancing. They really speak for themselves. Tiradera presents lots of photographs and explains how they provide damning evidence against the official 9/11 explanation. Reference is made to Operation Northwoods, a now declassified document that presents a plan devised in the '60s to stage a fake attack on the US by the Castro government and how to rig the reporting of this staged attack to justify a US invasion of Cuba. Griffin also refers to this Operation, but Tiradera includes a copy of it as an appendix. Read it. It involves diverting a charter flight to a secret airbase, unloading the passengers, substituting the charter with a drone to be blown up in Cuban airspace by remote control, and planting phony evidence at the crash site. What the document leaves out is what is supposed to happen to the charter's passengers once they are unloaded... Chilling. There is a Mount Everest of evidence disproving the official 9/11 explanation. Think of the Pentagon Analysis as Everest's glaciers.
