New PENTTBOM.com videos as of February 1st, 2009

Tuesday, February 10 2009 - Research/Evidence

Scott Bingham, creator of this relatively new site (PENTTBOM.com) has persistently, patiently been filing Freedom of Information Act requests for many years now to obtain data pertaining to the 9/11/01 attack on the Pentagon, in particular. His first site was Flight77.info, where he documented the process of filing requests, responses, appeals, and information released. (Bingham was responsible for the release of video tapes from cameras surrounding the Pentagon, at the Citgo and Doubletree, even though Judicial Watch took credit for it after the fact.) For those unaware, "PENTTBOM is the codename for the Federal Bureau of Investigation's probe into the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on New York City, New York, and Washington, D.C., the largest criminal inquiry in United States history. Its name stands for 'Pentagon/Twin Towers Bombing Investigation'. The investigation was launched on September 11, 2001 and involved 7,000 of the FBI's then 11,000 special agents" (Wikipedia).
