Mulling over George Pope to STEVE ASHER 28 Dec 2004

I will take your word that 3 passports were found, but it is certainly
remarkable that the passport belonging to Satam al-Sagami was found
on the street minutes after the plane he was on crashed into the North
Tower, before it collapsed. This implies that the passport did not
enter the building with the jet & the passport holder, but somehow
left the plane as it crashed into the tower. Perhaps the terrorist
flicked it out the window, like an apple core, just as the window
shattered. Good job someone happened to notice the intact passport
before the tower came crashing down. If I had been nearby, I would
have probably been heading away from the scene, without having the
presence of mind to look for a passport in all the confusion & panic.

I've seen it in the movies, & apparently the US military & intelligence
uses Hollywood directors to make their scenarios look "realistic".

Cheers, Steve..
