: ...the US Government, in fact, shot down the fourth plane, but spinned it into a hero story?
~~ Though I don't know that that's necessarily what happened, but I think it does make sense. I mean with the phone calls from the plane, why wouldn't they spin it? I mean it saves their ass from having to say they shot it down, but it also throws in the hero factor, of those who really did think about, judging by the phone calls, being heros.
I'm indifferent to whether it happened, it may have or may not have, but I think it is entirely possible.
