When you saw the second plane go into the second world trade centre building what was your immediate thought?

I turned and said to the people in the room with me, "whooooooooaaaaa, damn, there is going to be a war now. You better believe the US will not take any of this ****. The world trade centre? I can't believe it." When the towers collapsed, one and then the other, I thought hey that's not right but immediately dismissed it because I was in total shock that the US could even allow this type of attack to happen, in New York City? The Twin Towers? It seemed so surreal and I didn't really think about it too much just was glued to the news channel the BBC for hours trying to get any bit of info on it. When the BBC said that day it was Osama Bin Laden I believed them without hesitancy because I had always believed what the news was telling me was the truth. I had no reason to question any of it.

That is not the case today. Today I question everything.

    I knew it was our own government when I saw the second one. Alex Jones had warned our own government was going to destroy US buildings several months before that and I thought he was a crackpot at that point. But I instantly remembered his warning when I saw it happen. He had also warned that Bin Laden would be blamed and that was true too. If they were really so in the dark there is no way they could pick out Bin Laden so quickly in a couple hours out of six billion possible suspects in the world. Later I found out that Bush had ordered NORAD to stand down on 9/11 which was damning.

    I didn't know anything happened until just before lunch. I was busy defrosting my fridge! I sat down for a break and turned on the tv and thought WTF????

    I was stunned. I couldn't figure out what was happening, then they said that there could be as many as 50,000 people in the towers and it was just too much to absorb. There was talk about shutting down airports and stuff so I just got in my car and drove to my kids' school. The teachers, some where in the hallway crying.

    It was such a shock and everything about that day was horrific and all that followed too.

    But after all this time and from everything I've come to see and read I just find too many things don't make sense nor do they add up in my mind.

    I guess we'll never know what's true and what isn't but at this point we'll let God be the judge of it all if he truly exists.

    I have friends that fly with the airlines and they knew something was amiss. They also were hacked that the airlines didn't fight the two creeps that sued so they could fly without being asked any questions and the airline regs were taken down. So I just could not believe that the airlines would allow the creeps and attorneys to threaten a lawsuit that would put people in peril. A good book on this is Understanding the Times by William Grady. It has this and many other "things" in it. It's all documented and stuff I had not heard of, but you still have to make a decision. take care.

    My initial reaction was that it was a preview for some upcoming movie. I was brushing my teeth watching the television from the corner of my eye and thought it was an advertisement or something.

    When I realized it was real and called my housemates in...Hey! Is this real or is it some preview or advertisment?... they assured me it was real.

    My next reaction was, this is some kind of fake and perhaps some government set up. I did not for a minute believe it was an accident and I did not believe we were under attack from anyone but ourselves.

    Then I thought that all this tragedy is just another step in trying to dig for truth. It will be a time of serious change for the U.S. and the changes will be very interesting.

    Seven years later we sit on the edge of economic disaster and I still think the fall of the twin towers had something to do with destroying vital records and people. I think we've imploded on ourselves for all our lies and greed. We will know the truth some day. I'm just standing here watching.

    When I saw the second airliner hit, I was really freaked out. I was very worried that many other targets were going to be hit as well. There was a grievous feeling of shock the entire day - especially after seeing the aftermath and all the live footage of people jumping out of the burning towers to their deaths!! It's interesting that you described it all as "surreal". That is always the word I've used the describe the events of that fateful day. It appeared to be such a gorgeous day in NYC day, and then to see the devestation that took place was really unbelievable. To witness all the swarms of people trying to evacuate who were completely covered in white concrete dust/ash was really bizarre - it was like something out of a hollywood movie. After the WTC 7 collapsed without even being hit by an airliner, I just sensed something was very peculiar. I didn't find that realistic. It caused me to become curious and dig a little further outside mainstream media propaganda. After lots of research, I now realize that it could not have been anything other than a false flag attack.

    ** I will add comments in a bit .. All having to do with this Video Footage (and others like it, by different posters) This is The MAIN ISSUE, Showing that Sept. 11th. was an INSIDE JOB > > http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0rO3F6mZUaE ** *** If Anyone has Done THEIR OWN INDEPENDENT RESEARCH (rather that Being BRAINWASHED by FauxPropagandaNetwork, CNN, CBS, and ALL the other Zionist-Puke OWNED and CONTROLLED "Mainstrean Media" They would easily Learn what's REALLY GOIN' ON !! To answer this GREAT Q, when I saw the 2nd WTC Tower EXPLODE (having NOT SEEN Any Plane Til minutes Later, when the Edited/Fake Scenes were Run, over and OVER.) I IMMEDIATELY Thought " WHERE THE HELLL IS OUR (U.S) 880 BILLION $$ HIGH TECH, STATE OF THE ART, AIR DEFENSE SYSTEM .. ??? Oh Yea. DICKheadCheney was Put in Charge of Norad/USAF etc. etc. a FEW MONTHS BEFORE 9/11.. He COMMANDED ALL The Generals.. at NO OTHER TIME in U.S. History has a V.P. or ANYother Satanic-BazzTurd been put in That Position. and ASK YOURSELF... on 9/11 at 9:07am, when Andrew Card went up to MonkeyPuppet and told him the 2nd Tower was Hit. that OUR HERO, The Great Warrior/Leader he is, JUST SAT THERE til about 9:22am with a DAZED, STUPID, MEEK, IDIOTIC GLAZED EYED LOOK ??? (See Above Link) ASK EVERYONE THAT Ques. and Watch Them RUN !! http://www.realjewnews.com/?p=314

    i was stunned and went outside and looked down the street and saw the one of the buildings smoking and went back in and watched more tv, then the 23nd plane hit and ran outside and around the to see the other building and again and again as they fell.i was in shock most of the time and then stocked up on food and water after i herd about the bombs the news said was found in the cars on the bridges around new york. the pentagon crash made me wonder, where is the wreckage? and i knew something was wrong but didn't think about it till many months later. the more i thought about that day and the news the more i wondered, i knew people who were there that didn't come back and it gets to you and makes you wonder what really happened.

    in case you watch the documentary from the French brothers you will certainly see little bit of a minimum of between the planes crashed into the direction on the brink of a hearth hydrant & waste bin and an indignant policeman telling human beings to head away by way of fact it quite is evidence. Having a brilliant speedy shifting merchandise crash right into a enormous immovable shape became in no way going to go away super super bits in the back of so maximum of what has been chanced on became distinctly small and complicated to p.c. out properly, yet they actually crashed, and the government wasn't in charge.

    My immediate thought: This is no accident, it was a deliberate attack. Went to work shortly after seeing it happen, and watched the rest of it on CNN at work. We didn't get much work done that day, and most of us left before noon. Here on the west coast, most of us weren't even awake, or were just waking up when the first plane hit.

    It really looked like *&^%$#@! BAD movie "special effects"

    The plane did not slow down at all or crush down against the side of the building it just slid in like a knife through butter.

    The whole thing is VERY suspicious!

    that, coupled with the lack of aircraft parts recovered from the wreckage of both towers and the sloppy documentation of this crime scene, really give cause to question.

    Question EVERYTHING

    where are we going? WHY are we in this hand-basket?
