I'm starting to get tired of this. Does anyone honestly think that thousands of people - mostly government employees - can pull off something like this without someone leaking something?



I'd imagine it's a very simple matter for a $60k a year to just scramble jets at a moment's notice because someone somewhere thinks something might be wrong. Not to mention I doubt anyone at this level would have the authority to just randomly shoot down jets filled with innocent passengers. Fuck, I sure don't want to be the one to have to make that decision.



This has been covered before. The building was made to withstand the impact of a jet airliner. If I recall correctly, after the planes hit the towers did in fact remain standing. It wasn't the impact of the crash that took the towers down, it was the resulting fire from tens of thousands of gallons of jet fuel that took the building down.



This is a valid question. However, chances are it would do nothing but start another round of further questions.




We've had an explanation, in fact, more than one. The 9/11 Commission Report was one and there have been others.

Any time there is an "event" (such as a car accident) that is witnessed by multiple people, everyone sees differnet things. And there will always be things that can't be explained.

But the notion that thousands of people have taken part in this and covered it up is just plain silly. Why would they do it - So the US can attack Afganistan?
