I just finished watching the 9/11 conspiracy documentary "Loose Change." I did this on the recommendation of a commenter. (I also bought some music today based on a different comment... but that's a whole different thing. Do you see the impact you people have on me?)
Now, I think a good bit of the documentary is debunkable and overreaching. But the one thing they were extremely methodical about, using dozens of third-party sources including footage and statements from Fox News, ABC, CNN, audio straight from the FDNY, etc., was that WTC Towers I and II did not collapse from being hit by airplanes. Don't get me wrong: they got hit by airplanes. As I've said before, I am a first-hand eyewitness to the second plane hitting the Towers... and I spent a portion of the evening of September 11 on a roof in Greenwhich Village, chain-smoking (I had quit before, and haven't smoked since), drinking too much and watching the F-15's circle overhead.
But that's not necessarily what knocked each of them down in 10 seconds flat.
If anyone reading this has read any counter-conspiracy theories on "controlled demoliton" and the Twin Towers, could you leave me a link? I'm looking to educate myself further. I am not saying that the Towers and WTC 7 were destroyed via controlled demolition, but I would like to see a cogent refutation of the theory.
Love to all. Even you, Mr. Marvin Bush.

Seen that one before. Guess you can make a conspiracy theory out any seeming inconsistency. What brought the towers down and made a hole in the side of the Pent, was US refusal to acknowledge that Islamofascist forces were at war with us.
I think Dick Cheney did it.
I don't have a link to educate you, but I have a strong belief in it.
Two useless comment for two different reasons.
Trail Head: Like I said, parts were very well sourced and documented. Other than a canned response, I would think that since you took the time too see it, you could say something more about it. Or are you conspiring to be a stereotype?
:-)
ITS: I'm convinced, bro. You big goof.
Perhaps once it was clear that the buildings had been hit and were goners, we did indeed bring them down voluntarily. That's the only explanation that doesn't give me a stomach ache.
Karen, the thing about that is: it takes a long-time to plan that kind of demolition, and much longer than 60 minutes to set it up. Thus the uproar over the fact that Security for the WTC was headed up by Pres. Bush's brother, Marvin. As well as the fact that major security was pulled from the WTC 2 weeks prior to the attacks. Ugh.
Yeah, but the second plane hit (the and the first of the towers to fall), was on the corner of the building, most of the fuel just went up right then and there, outside of the building.
Also, steel in the WTC was ostensibly wouldn't have softened until it burned for *hours* at well over 2000 degrees.
Right? Wrong?
I always take conspiracy theories with more salt than I use to chase tequila shots, but some things about all these events are just too, uhm...too organized. I just don't see how those terrorists could be so well organized. And, like you said, I have no doubt that Towers were hit.
Another thing which makes me scratch my head is the alledged Pentagon strike. How/where did a huge passengers plane disappear? How did it go so close to the ground (hit Pentagon's first floor!) withouth damaging the front lawn or any of the light poles? How come a big airplane like that only made a relatively small cylindrical shape hole? And other questions.
