It did hit close to home.
A friend of mine told me years before 9/11 that his father worked in the World Trade Center. I didn't know which tower. So I had to get in touch with him to ask about his father to make sure he was ok. What a relief to find out Kevin's father recently retired. We were both relieved yet heartbroken & devastated at the same time because we were lucky. He was lucky & his father too, tho his work mates & company in the North tower weren't ....several thousands of families weren't lucky. If Kevin's dad didn't retire when he did, .....hate to even think about it. |

It only takes a small amount of knowledge of the way those towers were built, and a very basic understanding of structural engineering to realise that there was no controlled demolition - the towers fell as a result of planes flying into them and nothing else.
Who was behind the attacks and their motivations is where the story doesn't quite add up though. I think the conspiracy theorists could be closer to the money in that regard. |

G'day , When is America going to grow balls and chase down the ever growing evidence pointing to insiders in the CIA and elsewhere who murdered nearly 3000 people on that day...There are way way way too many anomalies to discount that it wasn't an inside job..
The stupidity of the USA knows no bounds...At least some free thinkers and true patriots are asking questions like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o551CQFAMKI and..https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8uM4z7vOJTk and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=817RAobvVvQ&t=166s .. On these videos there seems to be a vast more questions left un answered than answered... At least those reading this post ..PLEASE watch the three vids with an open mind before dismissing the claims out of hand.. Please do that for me first...Cheers Rod.. |

The case this group is making is baseless and has been debunked SOUNDLY many times over. Their continued efforts to promote their agenda is disrespectful to the people who died. http://doubtfulnews.com/2014/05/trut...-911-memorial/

G'day..I respect your opinion but I disagree more and more over time. I cannot quantify that outright but the plausible and ever growing arguments from ordinary people , surviving fire/police..and such points to some stuff going on that cannot be totally discounted..For the record ...I'd love to be 100 % totally convinced in every way that 9/11 happened as we initially thought as horrific as that was but......I'm more sceptical now than I ever have been I'm afraid. In regard to 'baseless'...
I'll leave it at that because those who doubt will always do so and those who believe that it happened as reported will be the same and will most likely not be persuaded otherwise...Cheers Rod.. |

also all the conspiracy theories seem to ignore the fact that at the bare minimum hundreds of people would need to have been involved yet not one of them has broken ranks and come forward to admit their involvement despite the passage of time. |

Each to their own.
I believe it was conceived to facilitate a war of a faceless criminal; for those with money to make more. I believe many people died that day (and thereafter) under the guise of terror with the intent to make wealth. Those that don't, I wish them well and all that....

A couple of of inetersing facts about Sept 11:
Steve Buscemi, you know the bloke from Fargo, Con Air, Armageddon, & Bioardwalk empire showed up at his old firehouse (No 55, for which he wash stationed at for 4 years) on September 12 to volunteer to dig through rubble, looking for survivors. Wielding 12 hours shifts. Air Force one got full priority on where it wanted to go. Usually they have to have a planned flight path & let Air traffic control know, but they just said, "You don't need to tell us where your going, just ask us if the vectors (I believe they are called that) are clear &I just do your own thing".

G'day. Wasn't going to add any more but then I found names and links ...Watch this at least...make up your minds on it but don't discount it out of hand...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CdE1Cwnymzc&t=66s As for the pointless comments about it not happening.. OF COURSE IT HAPPENED.... The real question is who else was really behind it and/or how could a Government supposedly with state of the art 'intelligence agencies" be so inept and incompetent to miss all the warnings of imminent attacks.. While we are at it...They then charged off to Afghanistan and Iraq dragging coalition countries along on what was later discovered and reported to be false premises and assumptions ..Anyone seen the massive report findings fairly recently that have come to that outcome ? Bush , Blair , other leaders followed like sheep and way too many innocent folk , servicemen from the US and elsewhere died needlessly... Lies , corruption, greed , stupidity incompetence and ideology caused this as much as the evil terrorists did.. Corruption knows no bounds...Watch the bloody video...Cheers Rod.. |

Just nipped down to Woolies. Darn it, the aluminium foil isle was empty. I'm not one to speculate. But many a tin foil hat might have been made. How do I wrap my sanga's for work now?

G'day......It's getting silly now probably due to my posts ..SO , I'll finish my involvement with this thread with these comments..
I believe that 9/11 will be remembered for the tragic mass loss of life , the brave and futile sacrifices by so many FDNY , NYPD and emergency services , the terrible impossible choices how to die by numerous victims and the deceit of an unspecified number of murderers from the Middle East countries AND the United States of America. Some time in the distant,distant future our very young or yet to be born relatives may well find out that there were far more than 19 terrorists involved in the biggest cover up of all time.. May all the souls of all the innocent victims Rest In Peace forever and may the perpetrators (all of them) rot in the bowels of hell for ever and a day.. Rod. |

Roddy, answer me this mate. Do you really think the amount of people that would have to be involved for it to be a conspiracy would be able to keep their mouths shut?

That said...I'm thinking a quite small number of the required credentialed US personnel would only be required...not too many at all I'd suspect to keep quiet and if the right sort of brainwashed persons or suitably remunerated ones were employed then it may have been not as difficult as many would think.. There is a thing called plausible deniability too ..supposedly used by the US agencies to minimise the chances of whistle blowers and risky high up officials suspecting and owning up to complicity.. Technology was a double edged sword apparently..In some instances it's claimed that elaborate clandestine technological covert operations would certainly be available but at the same time more conventional technology couldn't have achieved the results depicted...nigh on impossible it's said .. I'm a skeptic by nature , maybe I'm slanted to go the doubter way because of that..I will take a lot more convincing to believe 9/11 happened exactly as the 'official reports ' said it did.. That's me I'm afraid.. Cheers Rod... |

G'day...Okay...I'll shut up...no point frustrating you or me cos we'll never agree... By the way , they're not 'my' conspiracy theories..I believe in much of the evidence I've read and watched because it goes a long way to explaining some weird happenings ..Just so you know , the 'rubbish ' you mention is based mostly on the reports subsequently given by many actually at the coalface on 9/11 such as some of the surviving fire crews , police etc... Actual airline pilots interviewed with grave doubts on how the aircraft were flown and telecommunications experts with similar opinions on the validity of the phone calls from the planes given heights and speeds...Just so you know..I PM'd the moderator re my own closed thread and he gave me the good reasons why it was shut down which I accepted..This is an emotive topic that burns deep with me and a very close friend in Baltimore so if my strong beliefs are too confronting based on what he's told me and as above then I'm sorry you feel it's rubbish.. NO MORE FROM ME I PROMISE but for the record I will always doubt that the true story came out entirely...

Roddy, I know what you are doing. Your posts start off with saying how you will now leave it alone and you won't mention it any further.
Then you end your posts with a question and what I have highlighted below. Quote:

Not saying this was one, but false flag attacks have happened in the past. Some governments would do it. Whoever designed and built WTC7 should be investigated. That seamed to collapse way too easy for something that wasn't even hit by a plane itself. Last edited by Ben73; 02-12-2016 at 08:32 AM. |

G'day...I'm NOT a troll..That's absolutely wrong and offensive ..I am just frustrated and tormented beyond belief though by all this ...and I'm getting sucked in easily by this frustration and torment I need help perhaps..I'm also a glutton for punishment,stupid for doing this but all I ask you guys is to view this documentary with an open mind and not preconcieve that ALL the conspiracy theories are necessarily wrong.. I won't even begin to attempt to justify why any conspiracy MAY have happened anymore ..This is it.. .https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WMXJFN_JnKo. This one is Italian based and if nothing else is interesting to think about. Take note the people who feature in it and their interesting and valid explanations. Going by what i saw they are experts in their fields . The Pentagon stuff is amazingly interesting....Cheers...Rod...

Problem is, while "all you are asking is that we view this 'documentary' with an open mind" I am not sure that you in return are viewing any of the opposing links others are putting forward, nor listening to any debunking arguments with the open mind you are demanding from those that don't support your beliefs.
And while you feel "tormented" and "frustrated" by the "wrong and offensive" assertion that you are a troll, consider also that the views you are putting forward are so much more offensive to those that do not hold the same opinion as yourself. Also consider the original post and the intent of this thread. Might be best to let this one slide Roddy. Personally I much preferred when you were spamming us with Ford, Falcon, and general motoring vids. And while you are probably just reading this post as me saying "Pull your head-in", I do respect your passion and tenacity (just not your point of view).
