When the twin towers, also called the world trade center fell down due to the terrorist attacks in 2001 there were conspiracies about how the twin towers fell. Some of the conspiracies seem true. For example, like someone or something other than al Qaeda orchestrated the events of 9/11. There is also another conspiracy that seems untrue as well. An example of this would be when a plane, flight 93 to be more specific was shot down by a missile in Pennsylvania. Firstly, one conspiracy that seems somewhat true was someone or something other than al Qaeda orchestrated the events of 9/11. A few reasons why I believed this theory could be somewhat true for one reason. One reason is that 9/11 either happened on purpose or by allowing it to happen,
On September 11, 2001, 19 people hijacked four airliners and carried out suicide attacks against their targets.. Two of the planes crashed into the towers of the World Trade Center in New York City, the third plane hit the Pentagon just outside Washington, D.C., and the fourth crashed in a field in Pennsylvania. Over 3,000 people were killed during the attacks in New York City and Washington, D.C., including more than 400 police officers and firefighters. (“9/11 attacks”2010). The conspiracy theories started just days after the September 11, 2001 attack. The conspiracies were easy to spread fast when using the internet and they became more and more elaborate as time went on. The most popular 9/11 conspiracy theory is that 9/11 was orchestrated by the American government.
Roughly 2,753 people were killed on September 11, 2001, by terrorists who overtook commercial airplanes (Jones). The cause of these thousands of deaths were a series of attacks in New York City by an Islamic terrorist group, Al-Qaeda. However, there are still many questions about what actually happened the morning of September 11, 2001. As there are many different conspiracy theories about what happened that day, 9/11 was an attack which began with Al- Qaeda hi-jacking airplanes, but ended with more questions than answers. Many questions still remain about the authenticity of cell phone calls from inside the planes, why air defense was told to “stand down,” and how three buildings imploded as the result of two buildings being struck by airplanes.
A thorough investigation has been conducted and results from it show that Flight 93 was staged. Pessimists consider that the plane settled safely while a counterfeit plane was shot down. Other theorists trust that the passengers were butchered and their bodies disposed of (The 11 Most Compelling 9/11 Conspiracy Theories). The infamous cell phone calls were fake. Scientists have also verified that there was absolutely no way cell phone reception could have been reachable at the altitude typical airplanes fly at (The 11 Most Compelling 9/11 Conspiracy Theories). Also, where was the blood, the bodies? At the site of where the plane crashed, there was no tangible evidence of anyone being present on that plane (Bumiller). If such a crash were to present itself, one would think there would be dead bodies and blood, conveniently there were absolutely no evidence to show for. However, the Pentagon attack may be the most puzzling event of the day. Theorists maintain that the holes in the Pentagon were much smaller than a commercial American Airlines plane (Newsone). They also question why the plane was not shot down prior to its impact. Another eyebrow raiser is why was the plane flown into the one section of the Pentagon that was vacated due to renovations? Scientists have also confirmed that an aluminum plane could not have permeated the steel structure of the Pentagon; it would have simply disintegrated upon impact. (The 11 Most Compelling 9/11 Conspiracy Theories). Our nation may never know the answers to these puzzling events, but it is definitely something that makes one second guess their perception of what is right and what it wrong. It was also physically proven that the Twin Towers could not have collapsed from gravity alone. The falling of the towers appeared similar to a controlled demolition and seemed aided by the
The events that occurred on September 11th, 2001 are some that will never be forgotten in American History. What was a beautiful day in New York City quickly turned into a American Nightmare as multiple planes where hijacked by a terrorist group by the name of Al Quida. While these events have where one of the worst tragedies in American history their also comes many conspiracies theories. Some of these theories suggest that George W. Bush knew about or even planned the tragic events that happened that day. However these conspiracierie theories are simply false. Conspiracy theories that blame the events that occurred on September 11th on the American Government are not true. Still to be able to prove these theories incorrect one must understand what exactly happened on that terrible day in New York City.
Also if one takes a look at the video footage of the World Trade Center’s collapsing, one can clearly see several levels down a perfect explosion coming out level by level by level. The explosions are so precise that there is no possible way that they could’ve occurred by the collapsing itself. These explosions were caused by bombs that were placed inside the World Trade Center days before September 11th. An unexplained fire drill evacuation can prove that claim because why would everyone be ordered to evacuate the building days before September 11th? Maybe they were preparing for something in the event of an emergency (Hoffman, 2005). Actor Charlie Sheen says in an interview with Texas radio host Alex Jones (2006), "Call me insane, but did it sort of look like those buildings came down in a controlled demolition?" (¶ 3).
Not everyone believes that everything happened quite like that, that it was all done by terrorists. Many people believe that 9/11 was an inside job, ordered by government officials. There is some evidence that this could have been possible. Later in the day, after the attacks had taken place and all the other flights were grounded, there was a search of all planes. While searching two of the planes, there were knife like objects found hidden in there. Nobody can be quite sure how the weapons got there, but it is widely believed that they were prepositioned by some accomplices of the 9/11 attack. (What Happened on 9/11?")
Before the settlers landed in Jamestown, The Indians occupied the land and lived there for centuries. They were the first people to arrive in Jamestown. Some say there were 25,000 Indians; others say around 50,000 of the American natives, who lived on the land. There were about thirty different tribes whom the powhatan chiefdom took charge. However, each tribe had their own chief. In time there would be a change; King James 1 of England granted for another colony to be established under the Virginia Company of London which consisted of many wealthy Englishmen who wanted to invest their money into the company. They expected to
On September 11, 2001 four passenger commercial jet airliners were hijacked and as a result approximately 3,000 human lives were lost. When asked about 9/11, many can recall exactly what they were doing when they heard the news that a plane crashed into one of the World Trade Center (WTC) buildings and many Americans can tell you how it all unfolded and the reason behind such a travesty. The “official story” provided by officials, and restated by Sofia Shafquat, producer of “9/11 Mysteries: Demolitions” say that “four passenger planes were hijacked and taken radically off course, within an hour, two of the planes had flown into the enormous steel towers of the World Trade Center, creating fires and eventually toppling them” (Shafquat).
Over the years there have been many occurrences that have led to many suspicious citizens that do not believe the answers that they receive which has led to the creation of conspiracy theories, and many of them. Some of them make sense and provide factual information and support yet others are more abstract and do not contain much proof and if they do contain proof it is quickly deemed as false. In some cases some conspiracy theories turn out to be the truth. The definition of a conspiracy theory is an explanatory hypothesis that accuses a person or group of people of planning and or covering up major events that have occurred throughout history.
Have you ever wondered how things would turn out in the United States if certain situations did or didn’t happen? Imagine what the United States economy would be like if 9/11 didn’t happen the day it did, John F. Kennedy were never assassinated, and AIDS were actually created by the CIA. All of these conspiracy topics and more contain a mass amount of information. If they are indeed true, would we have more freedom as citizens or would our economy come crashing down? Some conspiracies of the United States have shaped citizen behavior and affected our economical and future with complete freedom forever.
Many people believe that the story behind 9/11 isn't necessarily true, they actually think that the owner of the twin towers planned the whole thing. At first glance it may seem like it was a terrorist attack. This initial perception fails to take in the account of the benefits the owner will receive. If people continue to believe that 9/11 was a terrorist attack, the owner of the twin towers also known as Larry Silverstein will get away causing one of America's greatest tragedies. The owner of the Twin Towers planned the 9/11 terrorists attack to get money because of the insurance claim, he missed work, and right before became a new owner.
The official story of 9/11 is a conspiracy theory in that the government claims 19 hijackers conspired together to hijack four planes and create terror in the world. Four American airplanes were hijacked; two were driven into the World Trade Centers and the third airplane into the Pentagon. The fourth airplane suspected target was the White House, but it was diverted by the brave men and women aboard that hijacked airplane, and crashed the airline jet before it could reach its target. It was like time stood still as America watched through television broadcast these unbelievable and horrifying events taking place. The reports told of the smell the jet fuel, burning flesh, and people jumping out windows to their death to escape the flames.
Suena was walking home and she felt like she was being followed, but she thought it was because of the horror movie she watched the night before. It was about a twenty minute walk for Surena to get home and she often enjoyed but that day she didn’t enjoy it. When she got home there was a note on her fridge from her mother saying she’ll be back in a couple of hours and that there was leftovers in the fridge. She still had that icky feeling that someone was watching her, she kept saying in her head that it was just the horror movie scaring her. Her dog Belle was eating the couch again, when her mom got home she’d be mad. Surena went up stairs to her bedroom and forgot to lock the door that day, when her mother warned her many times before to
There are numerous incidents that people can’t believe in in the world, so many people often suspect that it was behind on the incident. People want to know truth about some incident, but they don’t have a method. They’re not sure if it is true or not, so they have created new information themselves, their new explanations are called “conspiracy theories”. According to the Economist in the UK (2008), the most well-known 10 conspiracy theories are that the World Trade Center was destroyed by the U.S government, the alien are living in Area 51, the air base in the U.S, the Apollo 11 hasn’t been to the moon, Jesus had a wife and Princess Diana was assassinated by the British Royal Family.
A day known as one of the deadliest terrorist attacks on the United States in history. Hijacked planes crashed on September 11, 2001 into the World Trade Center, the Pentagon, and a field in Pennsylvania. From the horrific attack in 2001 to this day, there are still new theories coming out about what happened on September 11, 2001, as more information becomes available. There are some conspiracy theories that have credibility and could possibly be true. The government is so powerful that they can keep their hidden agendas from ever leaking to the public. What many people believe is that the government planned the attack. The spotlight was and continues to remain on Bush because he was the president at the time. He was the person of the highest authority in the government and people feel the need to push blame on him. There was a video of Osama Bin Laden confessing about the attacks and most people believed him when he took blame. Some do not believe him and that is why there are so many conspiracy theories on based on 9/11. The government caused 9/11 to divert the public’s attention and there are many theories that can provide reasoning as to why that theory is correct.
