Default 911 / 2001 who remembers?

Been doing a bit of digging of late about 9/11 and on a few sites, they mention WTC 7, NO PLANE HIT THIS BUILDING AND YET IT FELL STRAIGHT DOWN ALL 47 STORIES...... funny thing though the BBC reporter doing the live broadcast back to England said the building had just collapsed or words to that effect , BUT the building was still standing it was right behind her during the broadcast...... seems pretty weird to me..... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6mxFRigYD3s

Watch a show called "Zeitgeist - Final Edition"

Has some very interesting opinions/views/facts about religion, 9/11 attacks and the banking system.

The 9/11 part I highly recommend watching

I heard the whole thing was staged, that the buildings never even existed.

Whoever thinks that no planes hit those buildings has got to be a dead set fruit cake.

I know some "sane" people that seriously believe there was no moon landing either.

There are thousands of websites and videos out there about 9/11 truth.
Pilots for 9/11 truth, firefighters for 9/11 truth, Architects & Engineers for 9/11 Truth.

I think there is more to it than we are led to believe.

How many cameras are aimed at the pentagon? How come no one has ever seen a video of the plane hitting? All witnesses say the plane came from one direction, official report said it came from a different direction, where it knocked a pole onto Lloyd England's taxi.

A number of 9/11 whistleblowers have died suspisious deaths.

I know many of you will start with the tinfoil hat lines and all that. But before you do that, look it up. Look up all the website and videos that suggest there is more to it than we are told.
Some are utter crap, but some make some pretty good points.

I used to think 9/11 attacks were a bunch of extremist terrorist like the media says, but now I cant be sure of that.

I've reserved my opinion on the subject as most people take news as "Fact" these days...

My response is usually the same, "So all the stories on car hoons are true then?"

There are some pretty cool vids on youtube reg 911. The one I remember most was the mark in the field by flight 93. They showed a satellite shot of it about a decade earlier and the mark( crater/split) and it was there back then. Farmers saw a fighter jet but no passenger liner.

Found it but unsure how to link from phone. YouTube type in "flight 93 crater 1995"
There are more of you just search 93 crater

I remember it all and being at work in England thinking its got to be a hoax as we only got snippets on a sneaky radio. Then I got home and it was all over the TV.

I don't doubt that it all happened but it certainly didnt happen as the the US government say it did.
I love a good conspiracy and would not be surprised to find out that the world is run by a select few pulling all the strings behind the scenes, governments are just puppets etc.

Only took one post to turn a thread about remembering a tragedy into a thread about an alleged conspiracy.

Standard.

Actually the OP mentioned conspiracies first, so it kind of went from there...

I don't believe the conspiracies as much as I don't believe the media and govt. RE 9/11. It is impossible to know the finite truth unless you were involved.

As revealed in Fahrenheit 9/11, George W. Bush did have some business dealings fall through with the Bin Laden family in the years leading up to 9/11, so read into that one, too...

I was over there at the time and there are plenty of half truths about that story and more importantly the changes in the world since.

I herd that the twin towers were not distroyed by terrorists.

It was actually caused by a couple of Irish builders that were fitting a door on the 93 floor of the world trade centre, when Paddy said to Mick this one doesnt quite fit. Go and get a plane & take a little off the top.

Sorry couldnt help it You cant take life to seriously, its not like we are going to make it out alive.

I still remember it. I was in year 10 at the time so when I heard people talking about it at school I thought it was some hoax. It wasn't until I got got seeing it all over the news I realized the horrific situation it was.

Don't know (or really care) about the whole background/saga, all I can say is I still get shudders down the spine every time I see that footage of the second plane hit the tower. Remember exactly what I was doing and how I felt when it happened.

Whether you support Americas response or not, it was truly an event that shocked and changed the world.


Read an article the other day about the guy that killed Osama. The whole thing ended like a movie. Hostage situation, girl held at gunpoint. Heroic marine doesn't hesitate and puts two into is head then when he hits the ground hits him again. Hostage is saved.

Makes you wonder just how much influence the USA has over the media and if what we're told is anywhere near the actual truth.
