Is it simply the fact that they have not released every single piece of information that they have? If that's the case, then I would suggest that releasing the video might compromise the security of the pentagon, if for no reason other than it would allow camera locations to be pinpointed and dead spots of video surveillance coverage to be determined.
If there is nothing to be gained by releasing it, but something possibly to be lost by releasing it, then what is the point?

Having additional footage doesn`t benefit me; I believe Flight 77 hit that Pentagon. Releasing additional footage would sure make alot of other people more at ease, however... you know, the ones sitting on the fence about this incident. If anything, it would shut all the Truthers up and end this debate once and for all.
If there`s additional footage, and it is a matter of security to release that footage, then fine. Someone should come out and say that then. Atleast people would know footage exists, but they can`t show it for security reasons. Its all the government can do at that point.
If footage exists and it doesn`t compromise national security, however, I don`t see why it shouldn`t be released. I think people should have a right to know.
National Geographic showed government video of the commandos storming Bin Laden`s compound right before they killed him in May. That`s a matter of national security; why were those released to the public?
