737 Crashes into World Trade Centre

I can remember my 1st thought when it was mentioned on the news just before the tv footage started coming through.

" oh shit , must be shitty weather in NY today....."

First images pop up..........( start scratching head )



As for my personal opinion on " the conspiracy "
I think the us Govt knew something big was imminent but no idea when or where.
( have 0% interest arguing/debating my opinion on this either so save your bandwith :thumbsu: )

RIP victims

Had family and friends wake me up and told me what was going on in New York.

Foxtel and C10 had great coverage of it, Foxtel still showed shows programmed, but had a ticker tape at the bottom informing us of the most evil terrorist attack in a Western country in history to date.

When the first plane went down, it was like oh a place crash, but when the second one hit and another hitting the pentagon, I kinder tweaked something sinister is going on. Hmmm fancy that, how smart.:$ Only probably over a billion people realised that before me.
 
Also forgotten are those who have continuing health problems since 9/11, just horrible respiratory problems they'll have for life.

It's going to be an even bigger problem in the coming decade, as illnesses like cancer reveal themselves.

Many people lionise the military as heroes, but I reckon firefighters and ambulance crews/health workers don't get their due recognition anywhere near as much.

Firefighters and ambos are a very admirable job that will always have my respect. There is no ego's on display, they genuinely want to help those that cant help themselves.

Wish someone would tell Napthine that.
 
Such a horrible day that's burnt into the mind of all of us. Looking back at all the posts in this thread on the 1st page, it quickly turns from Jokes and slight concern to panic and real confusion. I was around 8 at the time and really didn't understand what was happening but I remember everyone that I knew were shocked and afraid at what happened and that it could happen on our soil as well. I kind of wish I was older to understand what had happened on that day, when it was happening. Regardless who I think is responsible for this act (I've posted my views in the 9/11 thread) thousands of people died and millions of people were affected on this horrible day.
 
Really? First time I've heard that Slick Willy was here on that date. According to this article he was in Melbourne.

http://abcnews.go.com/US/bill-clinton-hours-911-attacks-killed-osama-bin/story?id=24801422

“I’m just saying, you know, if I were Osama bin Laden ... He’s a very smart guy. I spent a lot of time thinking about him. And I nearly got him once,” Clinton said in the audio, which was recorded by former Liberal Party head Michael Kroger and aired by Sky News.

“I nearly got him. And I could have killed him, but I would have had to destroy a little town called Kandahar in Afghanistan and kill 300 innocent women and children, and then I would have been no better than him.

“And so I didn’t do it.”

Hours after Clinton spoke, a hijacked Boeing 767 slammed into the north tower of New York City’s World Trade Center...

Only thing is, going ahead with the strike he wouldn't have been destroying 'a little town called Kandahar, population 300' - he would have been destroying Afghanistan's second biggest city Kandahar, with a population of half a million people.

Bit of a difference.

He didn't say Kandahar has 300 people, he says that would've been about how many civilians would've been killed.

And I'd presume he's taking the piss calling it "a little town". He'd be well aware that Kandahar is a pretty large place and probably presume the audience was too.

But fascinating story regardless.

My god, you are kidding!!!

There were also reports of fire fighters being "assigned" to help widows of other fire fighters who lost their lives in the WTC. And then these guys developed relationships with these widows and left their original wives! Pretty sad...

Also forgotten are those who have continuing health problems since 9/11, just horrible respiratory problems they'll have for life.

You may have heard this one. The firefighters who died on September 11 their living spouse received insurance as a result of their death, which is fine. However, it led to a few firefighters shacking up with the recent widows and leaving their wives as a result.
 
There's a large movement of firefighters who were there that believe the official story is a crock of shit. Every year less and less people are believing the official story.
 
Interesting to see amateur footage of 9/11. You can just imagine if this happened within the last 5 years there would be hundreds if not thousands of amateur footage.

Let's keep the conspiracy thories off this thread thanks. We have a whole board for that.
 
Agree. Keep this thread to discuss the events of this day and have all the conspiracy theories in the 9/11 thread in the Conspiracy forum.
