Even when a bomb explodes in

Submitted by juandelacruz on Tue, 2010-07-20 00:07.

Even when a bomb explodes in a building, investigators look for a crater before they would confirm that a bomb exploded. This has been used as an excuse to rule out that a bomb exploded in one mall that I go to.

I don't get that part. In WTC, there were certainly bombs, but no crater, why should there be one in the Pentagon. Even if the bomb was delivered within an aircraft, there is no reason to think it was aimed straight into the ground with a fuse that activates on or after hitting the ground.

I am not supporting that a bomb laden aircraft went into the Pentagon, but I wont rule it out based on the no crater argument either.

If you say there is no damage to the foundation and other such damage that you expect is caused by a bomb on a plane, does that not extend to pre placed explosives too? In which case, what caused the damage to the Pentagon? Certainly something did, and it was not a 757.
