I didn't know this was a thing, people are denying an airplane hit the pentagon?? Wasn't there a video?

There's no video. It's strange how different things were for photos and videos a mere 15.5 years ago. If it happened today, you'd have sixteen bazillion videos from everybody's phones.

There are, however, a ton of witnesses. I think a lot of deniers don't really grasp the geography and think the Pentagon is some distant, isolated military installation or something. In reality, it's smack in the middle of the sixth largest metro area in the country, and AA77 flew right over a busy highway on its way to the Pentagon, so low that it knocked over light poles and nearly impaled a hapless taxi driver who was almost in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Sorry, what's the relevance of that link to my comment?

Edit: I see your edit, still don't get it. Did you maybe miss the fact that we're only talking about AA77 and the Pentagon here?

That subset of interest should be in there, somewhere.

It's not, because no such video exists. All that was captured were a couple of frames from crappy security camera.

If I'm wrong, I'd love to see the video in question.

The last set has all sorts of FOIA obtained photographs, documents, audio, etc., presented in video format, not just videos. As per the crappy video frames, that is my understanding as well.

~No video has been released to the public.~

edit: Apologies, I was incorrect.

That's demonstrably false. There's video, although a 600mph plane doesn't show up for long in a security camera angle. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZaPoD_7TmNc
