Has CameraPlanet-- The Source of Numerous Videos with Impossible WTC Crash Physics-- Revealed Its True, Monstrous Nature?

by The Anonymous Physicist

During the events of 9/11, it has been asserted that in the vicinity of the WTC, local police and federal agents confiscated photo and video cameras-- analogous to the actions of federal agents on site in Dallas, immediately after the regime assassinated President Kennedy. In the months and years since 9/11/01, one source has amassed the largest collection of video of the WTC destruction. This is CameraPlanet, whose 500 hours of 9/11 video says this about it, “The 7,000-gigabyte archive was assembled by Steven Rosenbaum, a Manhattan-based documentary producer. In the days after the terrorist attacks, he put up posters and fliers and placed an ad in The Village Voice urgently requesting images that captured the attack, its aftermath and the mood of the city.” (You will have to click on the article by Glenn Collins; curiously it does not have a URL separate from the home page. There are strange things about their website, especially for an I.T. company website.)

But this claimed “raw visual data” contains depictions of an alleged plane crash into Tower 2, that are absolutely, physically impossible. Many 9/11 researchers have written on the absence of Newton’s laws depicted on these claimed “raw” videos. The thick steel of the towers, when impacted by planes with plastic nosecones and aluminum bodies would have stopped much of the planes from entering the towers. I myself wrote on the missing collapse of the rear of the plane, from the rapidly traveling shock wave down the plane, that would have resulted in real life, when the front hit the tower. And numerous witnesses on scene reported not hearing or seeing a plane. Others, in the area, later admitted they saw it “on TV.”

So the question must arise, did CameraPlanet request people to send in their WTC video only to alter them for public release such that the alterations would match the obvious, pre-made CGI images released on TV, on 9/11? It is interesting that the term “duped” can refer both to fooling a person, and altering photos or videos. Once people sent in their video data, and saw it altered and no longer in agreement with what they saw and the video they took, great fear may have gripped them. 9/11 truthers have also indicated that numerous different videos are really the same one with different overlays. So some of the CameraPlanet crash collection may have come directly from intel agents. But some may have come from innocent people who were duped into believing they were doing good by sending them to CameraPlanet. Of course, there may be some people who saw that their video did not contain the planes, or the impossible crash physics. Some may still have their originals, and due to fear are keeping them to themselves. Others may have sent them to Camera Planet, and are too scared to say anything about the alterations they then saw were made. Some may have been paid off, or threatened, to cooperate with the Gestapo regime, or else.

So we must try to analyze CameraPlanet as best we can. CameraPlanet is a doing business as (dba) of Broadcast New Networks, Inc. Curiously a few months before 9/11, CameraPlanet hired a new C.O.O. (Chief Operating Officer) that it would later sue, along with other top staff, for allegedly trying to steal basically the whole operation. See here, here and here. The last is apparently a copy of a subpoena for deposition at an attorney’s office located at 666 Fifth Avenue. An address that has extra meaning to some, and is also directly across from the Rockefeller Center. But all this makes one wonder if there was/is a Covert Op-Plan underway whereby the entire operation would dissolve, and no one could later obtain proof of video alteration of the 9/11 collection?

One 9/11 truther stated that Goldman Sachs Bank of America is the biggest financial backer of CameraPlanet. At one point, I read that ABC-TV was a big backer, but can no longer find this. CameraPlanet’s site lists some famous clients, but has a curious dearth of information on who owns itself, other than to say it is Broadcast News Networks, Inc. Their website seems to go nowhere and is for sale. But (see below for Pantano) that site does still offer its owners email addresses. Wiki’s (self-proclaimed) disputed article on Steven Rosenbaum says “Rosenbaum, through his former company CameraPlanet (originally known as BNNtv) has produced prime time television for A&E, Court TV, Animal Planet, MSNBC, The History Channel, TLC, BBC, CBS and CNN.” Rosenbaum’s own bio also says that, like (slick) Willie Rodriquez, he was a magician.

Now the 9/11 Archive at CameraPlanet was created by Rosenbaum, who may have been CEO, if CameraPlanet is described as “his former company.” Now Rosenbaum is also said, while at CameraPlanet, to have hired reporter Peter Arnett. And Arnett, in 1997, is credited with interviewing none other than Tim Osman, better known as Osama bin Laden, putative head of Al-CIA-duh. This reminds me of that other great reporter, John Miller, who I exposed here as a creature of the intelligence agencies, and of the Mafia. Miller also “interviewed” Tim Osman/OBL, in 1998, for ABC-TV, and was put on live on 9/11 to say the towers were collapsing, not exploding; and that they were first “leaning.”

But perhaps one day, Steven Rosenbaum’s most famous/infamous CameraPlanet hiree will be Ilario Pantano. He is currently listed as an email contact under both “editorial services,” and “bureau services”; after you first click on the BNN logo from the CameraPlanet “about” page. Wiki’s page on this individual is here. At age 33, he was charged, as a Marine Second Lieutenant with murdering two Iraqis, during an operation near Fallujah after Iraqis had killed four Blackwater mercenaries and strung up their bodies. Pantano’s life story deserves much scrutiny.

He was born in New York City’s Hell's Kitchen in 1971. He attended a Prep High School in NYC, and then enlisted in the Marines. He became a TOW gunner, but also completed training as a sniper, and rose to Sergeant. He left the Marines in 1993, and went to NYU, obtaining an economics degree. He then “built a successful career as an energy trader for Goldman Sachs, and moved on to become a movie producer with a New York firm called The Shooting Gallery. He would later be a cofounder of a company specializing in interactive television, Filter Media.” This, from Steve Rosenbaum’s blog on 2/24/05, says that Pantano was “CameraPlanet's former Director of News Operations.”And also that “Mr. Pantano oversaw an assignment for the State Department, documenting the opening of new schools in Afghanistan.” Many would say that that kind of State Dept job usually goes to intel agents (CIA, military intel, etc.). I believe those last two jobs must be from before Pantano re-enlisted, allegedly some time after 9/11/01. After 9/11, wiki has this legend, “Immediately after the September 11, 2001 attacks, Pantano decided to rejoin the Marines. Pantano's apartment was next to a fire station where eleven firemen, four of whom were former Marines, perished in the 9/11 attacks.”

Pantano is commissioned as a Marine Second Lt., and is sent to Iraq in February 2004. Wiki’s article on him seems to ludicrously idolize him such as here, “His [battalion] men reported that they appreciated the extra training drills he put them through.” On April 15, 2004, as part of “Operation Vigilant Resolve” Pantano kills two alleged Iraqi “insurgents” who were apprehended in a vehicle near a compound that they were sent to investigate, near the town of Mahmudiyah. After some of his men went to the appropriate authorities, Pantano was charged with murdering the two Iraqis who were in his custody. Pantano publicly pled innocent of any wrongdoing. His trial became a cause celebre especially among right-wingers-- and pseudo-liberals. His public testimony and that of some of his men diverge on what happened. Pantano alleges that the two Iraqis disobeyed him, and communicated with each other; and in some reports, even that they ran away. Pantano admits to emptying two magazines into his prisoners.

In June 2004, Sergeant Coburn registered a complaint about the incident, triggering a Naval Criminal Investigative Service (NCIS) probe. After an investigation, Pantano was charged, on Feb 1, 2005, with two counts of premeditated murder. An Article 32 pre-trial hearing was held on April 26, 2005, with Major Mark Winn acting as presiding officer.

Some eyewitness testimony includes the following. From Wiki: “Sergeant Coburn is reported to have said, "As soon as I turned my back, Lt. Pantano opened [fire] with approximately 45 rounds." Coburn, throughout the case, gave five distinctly separate versions of events….”
(Snip)
“Another witness, "Corporal 'O'", was an Arabic-speaking Nigerian-American in Pantano's platoon. His full name was kept confidential at Pantano's hearing because he is being trained for counter-intelligence duties. In his testimony at Pantano's hearing, Corporal "O" described interviewing the two captives. He described seeing the vehicle being searched by other Marines, including the removal of its seats. He described seeing the corpses of the captives, following the shooting, face down, with the heads and torsos in the vehicle and their knees resting on the ground, as if Pantano shot the captives in the back while they were kneeling facing the vehicle. Corporal "O" described the sight as "weird".

Wiki concludes the trial portion of its Pantano article with this, “Major Winn recommended to Major General Huck, commander of Lieutenant Pantano's division that the murder charges be dropped. It was his assessment that Sergeant Coburn was an uncredible witness. He did however recommend that Pantano receive nonjudicial punishment for conduct unbecoming an officer, for the sign he left on the corpses. He described Lieutenant Pantano's treatment of his captive's corpses as a "desecration". Under U.S. military law, the decision as to whether a court-martial should take place lay solely with General Huck, who dropped all charges.” Note that Major Winn’s recommendation was actually to drop all murder charges, but to instead instate charges related to Pantano’s leaving a sign at the men’s corpses that read “'No better friend, No worse enemy.” But Huck ended the matter completely. For more on the U.S. Military’s history of allowing massacres to go unpunished, see my Hugh Thompson Vietnam piece here: http://covertoperations.blogspot.com/2008/07/defeating-britishamerican-gestapo.html

This finally brings us to Marine Major General Richard Huck. See his fascinating, “orphaned” Wiki article here. Note the following statement on the Pantano shooting is in Huck’s wiki article BUT NOT PANTANO’s! “Pantano ALLEGEDLY CONFESSED that he had SLOWLY AND METHODICALLY riddled his captive's corpses with four dozen bullets, because he wanted "to send a message" after the detainees had refused repeated commands to step away from the vehicle with the bomb compartments. He also ALLEGEDLY CONFESSED to investigators that his decision to use maximum violence "to send a message" was PREMEDITATED. After the shooting, Pantano scrawled a warning which he placed on the vehicle near the bodies. After apparently leaving the area before local authorities could tend to the bodies, the Marines were later accused of leaving the dead as a message to their neighbors.”

So both Wiki’s Pantano piece, and the virtual entirety of media articles, make no mention that Pantano allegedly confessed to two premeditated murders, to investigators. Please archive Wiki’s piece on General Huck, as I believe my article now may lead to the removal of the section on Pantano’s (alleged) confession. Now in an interview with the BBC on March 20, 2005, Pantano said, "I'm a New Yorker and 9/11 was a pretty significant event for me, our duty as Marines is, quite frankly, to export violence to the four corners of the globe, to make sure that this doesn't happen again." Pseudo-liberal Jon Stewart also promoted Pantano and his book on his “Daily Show.”

Wiki’s fawning Pantano article concludes, “He was hired as a Sheriff's deputy on February 22, 2007, where he will serve as a guard in a correctional facility. Pantano was characterized as the star pupil in his course. Pantano stated that serving as a Sheriff's deputy represented the current height of his ambition.” But, as noted above, Steven Rosenbaum, at this same apparent time, also hired Ilario Pantano for both “editorial services” and “bureau services” at Broadcast News Networks/dba CameraPlanet.


Pantano’s remarkable Bio can chronologically be summarized as:

Preppie High School Grad from Hell’s Kitchen,

Marine Enlistee,

Certifed Sniper,

Wealthy “Energy Trader”,

Movie Producer/Video Expert,

CameraPlanet's Director of News Operations,

State Department agent, allegedly “documenting the opening of new schools in Afghanistan”

Marine Re-Enlistee (because of 9/11!),

Alleged Confessor (Hidden in someone else’s bio at Wiki) to Premeditated Murder of two Iraqi Prisoners who were never allowed to defend themselves in a court,

Sheriff’s Deputy in a Correctional Institution (Prisoners Again),

and finally

Contact person for those who might have a video proving that the American Regime did 9/11 itself, and nuked the towers, which did not have planes crash into them.

Now imagine you have a (publicly) unseen, unedited, non-remasterminded video of the WTC Towers either depicting no plane crash into WTC2-- or perhaps even evidence of the nuking of the towers as they were destroyed. Would you want to deal with this individual, CameraPlanet's former Director of News Operations, and current email contactee for the public, who “allegedly” confessed to emptying two magazines of bullets into two prisoners-- who were never allowed to defend themselves, and who may have been totally innocent, as so many in Guantanamo and Abu Ghraib were/are? And what can be said about CameraPlanet, and its apparent (former?) CEO, and chief 9/11 archivist, Steven Rosenbaum-- the former magician, and “world’s leading archivist of the largest 9/11 video collection”? He is also the one who appointed Pantano as former Director of CameraPlanet’s New Operations, and current public contact. Can one detect the stench of the intel agencies here, as virtually everywhere in the 9/11 matter?

Finally it is not a surprise to me to see how one alleged 9/11 “audio truther” claims to succumb to the charm of a CameraPlanet videographer, and now appears to go with the OCT of planes hitting WTC2, as depicted in the CGI videos. I outed his improbable “FBI phone interview” here: http://covertoperations.blogspot.com/2008/10/logic-and-unlikeliness-of-fbi-agent.html. So it appears that CameraPlanet is serving its purpose in altering video, and in putting out disinfo to both the MSM/masses, and in the faux 911 truth field. And we have seen the likelihood that America’s Gestapo intel agencies began, on 9/11 with video confiscation, and then went to deception to control, and alter all the video data from that day. Perhaps any photo or video posted online anywhere, that conclusively exposed what really happened on 9/11, would be immediately intercepted and altered by who controls the internet.

One place not to send real video of the American Regime’s dastardly deeds has been exposed.
