It means nothing, one way or the other. Only forensic evidence has meaning.

Can't fool you eh genius? You are way too smart to believe that Arab/
muslims
terrorists would EVER do anything bad with airplanes.

Gee, I wish I was as sharp a tool as you.

You're a tool alright.

The jury is in on TWA Flight 800, and the verdict is clear: There is absolutely no
evidence of either a mechanical failure, or of a bomb planted in the fuselage. Indeed, 
all
available evidence suggests the explosive event that destroyed the ill-fated airliner 
in
1996 was caused by a terrorist group called the Islamic Change Movement.

This is the "group" that had taken responsibility for the Riyadh bombing in 1995 that
killed five Americans and two Indian nationals, and the Khobar Towers bombing in Saudi
Arabia on June 25, 1996, that killed 19 American servicemen.

Early on July 17, 1996, the very day TWA Flight 800 was destroyed, this same group
issued a communique that, according to Yossef Bodansky, "laid the foundation for the
downing of TWA 800." As director of the Congressional Task Force on Terrorism and
Unconventional Warfare, Bodansky knows the subject as well as any man alive.

The communique was chilling: "The mujahideen will deliver the ultimate response to the
threats of the foolish American president. Everyone will be amazed at the size of that
response," it read in part. "Their time is at the morning-dawn. Is not the morning-dawn
near?" Dawn in Afghanistan corresponded almost exactly to dusk in New York, the
moment of TWA Flight 800's demise.

So powerful and public was the warning that, by the night of July 18, the State
Department had already swung into denial mode. "While it's up to those leading the
investigation to make a judgment on what this means," said spokesman Glyn Davies
unconvincingly, "we think that this is a common type of political tract circulated 
commonly
in the Middle East, and that the only connection is a vague chronological one “ that 
this
thing surfaced at this dreadful time."

The State Department failed to note that on this same day, July 18, the Islamic Change
Movement released another communique through well-established Islamist terrorist
channels in Beirut. It read in part, "We  carried out our promise with the plane 
attack of
yesterday."

Bodansky was not impressed by the State Department denials. He raised the chillingly
prophetic alarm that follows “ not after Sept. 11, but two years before:

The case of TWA 800 served as a turning point because of Washington's
determination “ and to a great extent ability “ to suppress terroristexplanations
and "float" mechanical failure theories. To avoid such suppression after future
strikes, terrorism-sponsoring states would raise the ante so that the West
cannot ignore them.

Less well understood is just which "terrorism-sponsoring state" was backing the Islamic
Change Movement.  In her fascinating book, "The War Against America," Laurie Mylroie
makes the case that the one nation with the means and the motivation was Iraq.  "The
most likely interpretation," she notes, "is that the Islamic Change Movement was a name
given by Iraqi intelligence to threaten or claim credit for bombings."

To be sure, Mylroie does not link the Islamic Change Movement to TWA Flight 800. In
fact, she does not mention the doomed flight at all. She focuses primarily on the first
World Trade Center bombing. A meticulous researcher, Mylroie developed much of her
material as a consultant for Newsweek. She has sifted through the various documents
unearthed in the various criminal trials, and followed the paper trail right back to 
Iraq. Her
reasoning and her documentation are difficult to refute.

Curious as to why she avoided the subject of TWA Flight 800, I called Ms. Mylroie. As I
told her, I did not expect her to commit to a theory on the crash based on my 
five-minute
phone explanation, but I would appreciate her insight on a few key points. One was on
the question of whether it was indeed the Islamic Change Movement that had sent a
specific threat the morning of the flight. "No," she answered cagily, "They actually
sent it the night before."

A second point of interest was the date of the plane's destruction. Mylroie mentions
frequently, as have others, that terrorists in the Islamic world have a fixation with 
dates.
She argues, for instance, that the first World Trade Center bombing took place on the
second anniversary of the final day of the Gulf War, a correlation she sees as 
significant.
(She does not explore the Oklahoma City bombing, despite the fact that its modus
operandi is eerily similar to the bombing of the World Trade Center and that it took 
place
on the second anniversary of the final day of another siege “ the one on Waco).

The most significant day on the  Iraqi revolutionary calendar marks the coup that 
brought
Hussein's Ba'th party to power in the ill-starred year of 1969. Myl
