The three students presented some provocative information, worthy of every American's consideration.
The world-class magazine - as part of the mainstream, established media - has a vested interest in keeping the "official story" alive. As Hitler once said: tell a lie, make it a big lie; repeat it over and over; eventually people will believe it.
Once Americans stop doubting our government, we come closer to living under totalitarian rule. Once Americans are gullible enough to believe whatever we're told, we will then be told what to do, how to act, what to say, and even what to think (remember the Thought Police from Orwell's '1984'?). Once Americans don't accept the government's word with at least a modicum of skepticism, we are all doomed to losing the rights and freedoms on which this nation was established. We have a Constitutional right - and obligation - to question our government. Benjamin Franklin once said: "When people fear the government, it is tyranny. When government fears the people, it is liberty."
Adolph Hitler said, "How fortunate for governments that the people they administer don't think."
Consider how many times our government has lied to us in the past fifty years (that we know about):
a) There is still speculation that FDR knew about the Pearl Harbor attacks and did nothing, knowing it would drag us into World War II;
b) The government has never satisfactorily explained the events in Roswell, New Mexico in 1947, especially to those who lived there and witnessed everything;
c) The Warren Commission painted a sanitized, whitewashed version of the JFK assassination, then sealed the documents for 75 years. By the time those documents are released in 2038, most of us who were alive at the time of the assassination will be dead, unable to examine or dispute the Commission's findings;
d) The government lied about U.S. battleships being 'attacked' in the Gulf of Tonkin, which dragged us into the Vietnam War;
e) Our military lied about the effects of Agent Orange on Vietnam veterans;
f) The government lied about "weapons of mass destruction", which dragged us into an unconstitutional, illegal, unjustified, immoral war against another sovereign nation that in no way threatened, provoked or attacked the United States;
g) The White House lied about a third-rate burglary until two young reporters dug out the truth and forced the resignation of a sitting U.S. President;
h) The government lied about U-2 spy planes flying over the U.S.S.R. until Khrushchev shot one down and displayed it for all the world to see;
i) The government lied about the torture and sexual abuse of 'detainees' until photographs were posted on the Internet;
j) The government lied about secret CIA prisons.
Why is so unfathomable to think that the government might have lied about 9-11?? -RKO- 08/22/07

I would believe both.
For three students to make a video regarding 9/11 with loose change suggests to me an act of respect on your behalf.A World class magazine can afford to film a glossy video but do they do it for there own benefit rather than respect,you be the judge.

By viewing the first four answers,it is well evident that US citizens have lost their "blind faith" in their govt:s,
About 911, now many US citizens are double minded,many think of an inside job and yet a third group believe as govt: says,
I think there is a powerful MAFIA in the USA who wanted USA at war,
if we assume that war against Afghanistan was for US safety , then who was IRAQ a danger for USA ? no by no means,
But yes it was a little threat for Israel, so is Iran or Pakistan or Saudia,
Now you US citizens to decide that , "would you like to be on war for your Jew friends" who are nowhere in the picture, US people and govt: are carving reasons of wars one after one,
First 911, then weapons of mass destruction , and now "Osama in Pakistan" and Iran's nuclear program,
please try to stop your govt:s to fight such foolish wars , otherwise the biggest looser will be the "most stable of today" that is USA.
