Probably old, but thought I'd share this;

And before commenting, be sure to actually WATCH this one.

And just for laughs;

Subliminal messaging. Nice try.

By the way, that is really disgusting and intellectually bankrupt. You can get people to believe anything with that stuff.

That stuff was banned for a reason. It is extremely effective in advertising.

Oh, yes. And I am part of the conspiracy. No airplane hit the Pentagon, and that's why there are all these eyewitness accounts describing it.

Well, let's think about it. Were it a missle, where did it come from?

Moreover, someone describes the plane hitting the Pentagon as smashing a hot dog (non-frozen) into table. As the velocity of said hot dog increases as it hits the table, the more your hand hurts (obviously) but also the more bits the hot dog gets smashed into, eventually decimating the hot dog.

Seen it before. That music is EXTREMELY irritating.

Well, this is what I was taught in marketing, though looking at this site, it would appear you're correct:

Yeah, subliminal effects are a common misconception. I was in a philosophy class that debunked it (along with a slew of other things like ESP)

Meh, eyewitnesses are only 80% accurate at best. Then there's the problems with how the mind "auto-corrects" information, which can cause questions to bias reports.

I saw the Pentagon Flash in Social Studies a few months ago. I believe it. Then again, I believe the Pentagon was attacked by aliens, and I believe in AREA 51 and such. I used to want to be a cryptozoologist because I believe in all of this stuff...

I can't get the video to run. From what you're all saying, I assume it isn't the old 'the Jews were behind 9/11' conspiracy theory touted by Islamofascists and assorted morons the world over.

Well, it aint! AND I AM A JEW! It is about a missile being launched against the Pentagon, or just a small plane.

^ It's pretty much the theory that what rammed into the Pentagon wasn't a plane but a missle.
