Why I Don 't Think?

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.

The attack on American soil on September 11, 2001 is one conspiracy theory to consider. The timelines given to the American people concerning the 9/11 attack do not make sense. At approximately 8:46 am the American Airlines Flight 11 heading to Los Angeles crashes into the North Tower of the World Trade Center, and at 9:03 am the United Airlines Flight 175 strikes the South Tower of the World Trade Center. The American Airlines Flight 77 traveling from Dulles, Virginia

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).

Those who believe the WTC was destroyed by controlled demolitions argue the debris that blew out of windows was the result of an explosive. But experts disagree by saying the debris was simply the contents of the offices inside being blown out with air as the floors collapsed on top of each other. Also, demolition professionals say explosives are placed on lower levels, whereas, the planes hit the buildings at very high floors. No signs of a bomb were found in the wreckage of the buildings (Debunking the 9/11 myths, n.d.). Those who believe the planes that hit the WTC were remote controlled say there is no way al Qaeda could have even come up with the plan to hijack and crash the planes, much less have acted it out within an hour. The manufacturer stated the planes that hit the buildings had only one system of control: from the flight deck. Many telephone calls were made from passengers on the planes saying they were being hijacked.

Planted explosives in the buildings would be able to make this pattern of falling possible. There is a group of 2,500 architects and engineers, of Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth, that concur that the evidence found at the collapse site as well as the way in which the buildings fell suggests a controlled demolition was involved in the collapse of the buildings. The key factor that changed their minds, and mine, is the fall pattern concerning Building 7 of the World Trade Center. Building 7 was a headquarters of the C.I.A., and it was this building that fell in only 7 seconds. The same engineers and architects from Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth also concluded that how this building came down matches the fall pattern of a controlled demolition. After watching the video of the collapse of Building 7 and a video of a controlled demolition, I saw that the buildings fell in identical patterns. NIST released a report and held a press conference to try to explain Building 7’s collapse. NIST stated that the building had been damaged by office fires and that is what caused the building to collapse, though Fire Protection Engineer Scott Grainger states that “high rise buildings simply do not collapse due to fire” (Architects & Engineers for 9/11 Truth: Science of 9/11, 2017). When I saw the video of the building collapsing there were squibs, dust clouds, being shot out of the building in a synchronized manner that was similar to the controlled demolition video. The middle of the building was the first part of the building to begin collapse, followed by the rest of the building. This second part of the collapse would occur milliseconds behind the first, which contradicts the recreation of the building collapse NIST produced. Their recreation shows the corners of the building falling inward, which the actual

It has been 16 years and we have yet to hear a case where skyscrapers collapse in the same manner that the twin towers did. Insiders have reported that the Twin Towers design was constructed so that smaller floors were on top, so how could the smaller floors destroy the bigger floors below them just by fire? In his book titled 9/11: The Simple Facts: Why the Official Story Can’t Possibly Be True, Arthur Naiman states two undeniable facts. First, he makes the statement that “Nothing ever falls into the path of greatest resistance.” Within this claim, Arthur compares the twin towers to a tree. If the top of a tree were to catch fire and burn directly downward through the trunk it may seem plausible. The twin towers contained over 80,000 tons of steel, which is way denser, making it impossible for the towers to fall evenly. His second claim is that “Fires don’t suddenly destroy entire buildings evenly and completely.” He supports this claim by stating that only artificial fires would burn an entire building symmetrically. Given that natural fires leave some objects out, not everything is destroyed. These inconsistencies are crucial in the explanation of the 9/11 conspiracy because they avoid using just theory, actual facts are presented that avoid

In this article, one of the main issues is that the tower’s structural engineer, Lee Robertson, addressed the problem of terrorism in the plans for the building, claiming he “designed it for a (Boeing) 707 to hit it”. In the center of the tower there is a central support core. This core is built of sheer concrete reinforced by 44 beams of construction grade steel, which were sealed in asbestos. When the plane hit the north tower it took a direct hit to the core, but the plane that hit the south tower went in on an angle, almost parallel to the core structure. The fuel barley grazes the core of the south tower, with most

What if everything one was supposed to believe was wrong? What if the people who are supposed to protect citizens from danger, do not? What if 9/11, the most tragic day in American history, was caused by the people we are supposed to respect and we are supposed and to believe, our government? Could our government have masterminded this horrific crime? Actually, I believe they did. In August 1997, on the front cover of FEMA’s, The Federal Emergency Management Agency, Emergency Response to Terrorism Manual it shows the World Trade Center towers in the cross hairs, sights used for aiming a gun or missile for accuracy, and then again in June 2000, the Department of Justice released a world

When looking at 9/11 we all know that the World Trade Center and the Pentagon were attacked, and the WTC twin towers both collapsed to the ground. They were said to be hit by American Airlines plane, but from some conspiracies they are said to be struck by an unmarked plane, and right before impact they saw a flash which is said to be a missile being shot into the tower right before the plane. Looking at this it looks like a military plane was flown into the towers. It is also said to be a controlled demolition and bombs planted in the basement of the towers, Kellen explains this from an interview from a Janitor of the tower, “I felt an upward explosion from underneath me, and then I heard the other explosion from above.” This came from the

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).

Out of the entire World Trade Center complex WTC 7 is the furthest away, but somehow still manages to collapse. More than 8 hours after the initial attack, at 5:21 p.m., WTC 7 collapsed in 6.5 seconds. This building was also a steel framed building and was not even struck by a plane but mysteriously falls. There is absolutely no reason for this building to fall unless except it was planned. After the buildings collapsed a scientist found traces of thermite, and explosive compound and also Thermate, which is a patented brand of thermite used in the demolition industry! WTC 7 collapsed the same way a building in a controlled demolition would collapse. It gives out in the middle causing it to collapse on itself and not letting it fall onto other buildings. A controlled demolition would also explain the seismic evidence recorded close of two small earthquakes just before the towers collapse. The only valid explanation as to how 3 steel towers could collapse, and one being unstruck is that it was a controlled demolition and the government used explosives to destroy the

There is a lot of speculation about who was behind the attacks. Although the main culprits are believed to be Al-Qaeda who have claimed responsibility for the attack there are many factors that point to the fact it could have been an inside job fabricated by the government of the United States of America.

“The (WTC) collapse appeared to be similar to a controlled demolition” (Thomas, 07/08/2011). Many speculated that the towers were in fact blown down with explosives placed in selected locations. Some witnesses accounted hearing explosions inside the building as they attempted to escape the building. Many architects and scientists maintain that jet fuel cannot produce enough heat to melt the steel frame of the two buildings. There were no planes to hit building 7 of the trade center, but it was demolished in the same fashion as the twin towers were.

Few events in American history have provoked as much speculation as did the September 11, 2001 attacks. The attacks were orchestrated by the Islamic extremist group, al Qaeda. Nineteen young militants associated with the group hijacked four United States airplanes mid-flight and crashed two of them into the World Trade Center, causing the two skyscrapers to catch on fire and collapse. Or at least, that's what the government told us. Many people were skeptical of this story, saying things such as "jet fuel can't melt steel beams", "there were traces of thermite found at Ground 0", and "Bush did 9/11". Why do people say these things? Psychology gives us two answers: one, that people engage in conspiracy theories to deal with difficult emotions;
