Answer 1

It was an inside Job.

Because only and idiot would believe that a little fire would bring down a 1.5 million square foot building 7 in perfect symmatry at free fall speed.

Answer 2

To be honest...it is a very confusing issue.
I am not American and live in Europe thus giving me access to other points of view...Having said this, and I know I won't be popular,
I too am hearing the conspiracy stories and am leaning towards them as they seem more logical in persuation.
There are many questions that are very shaky...like for example...where are the bodies from he downed airplanes? Where is the evidence? The fact that the twin towers collapsed is nuts!!! I do believe they were detonated and brought down. The two airplanes crashing into the buildings is not enough to cause them to just collapse...
Why? good question...
What is at stake here?
So yes ... it seems more and more convincing that it was an inside job. And that the family Bush is right in the center of it...
But then again... conspiracy theories are just that huh? a theory until proved.

Answer 3

I don't have enough information to say for sure that it was an inside job. But I am very suspicious of how the whole thing went down. I find it hard to believe that our intelligence is that bad.

I am also very suspicious how this event gave enormous power to George W. Bush, a man who lost the popular vote in the election.

It is no secret that Dick Cheney coveted unlimited power for the President. He talked about that before the election of 2000.

If you add everything it is either a rare coincidence or someone from the Government made 9/11 happen. One day I hope we know the truth, because I am sure that the public has not been told the entire truth.

Answer 4

Terrorists have a history of targeting the US. It's well known that we have lots of enemies in the world. What was to be gained out of 9/11? The Patriot Act? A war with Iraq and Afghanistan that has cost a lot of money and lives? When Hitler burned down the Reichstag, which by the way caused no injuries, he immediately got returns for it. What have we gotten so far? If anything, we've lost things: lives and money, and some of our economic prosperity.

Answer 5

Not an inside job. Here's why:

1. WTC7 was not brought down by a "little fire" nor did it fall symmetricaly

At least 6 fires started in WTC7, each of which was described as “large” but there was no water to fight them. The fires were left to burn because the building started to lean and firefighters decided it was too dangerous to enter.

In addition to the fires, WTC7 was struck by the collapsing tower.

NIST said "On about a third of the face to the center and to the bottom — approximately 10 stories — about 25 percent of the depth of the building was scooped out." See http://www.popularmechanics.com/technology/military_law/1227842.html?page=5#wtc7)

The fact that WTC7 collapsed even though it wasn’t hit by the planes is not surprising.

Even though they were NOT hit by the jets, numerous buildings over a wide area were hit by debris from the collapsing towers were destroyed.

This includes: The Marriott World Trade Center , 6 World Trade Center, 5 World Trade Center, 4 World Trade Center, and St. Nicholas Greek Orthodox Church (which wasn’t even in the WTC complex). The Deutsche Bank Building was also outside the WTC complex & was massively damaged, and was declared a total loss in 2004.

Workers testified that the east side slumped, then collapsed, pulling the rest of the building with it. It did not fall symmetrically.

2. Drills on 9-11 did not "confuse" the air force.

NORAD responded as soon as they were asked to.

The problem on 9/11 was that the hijackers had turned off the transponders so that it was difficult to figure where the planes were. The 2 towers were struck before controllers could even figure out where the hijacked planes were. That's a matter of public record.

It had nothing to do with "drills."

3. It's simply not true that no plane debris was found in Shanksville. The largest piece found was a fan from the engine. This is typical of high speed plane crashes.

4. Silverstein does not "own" the WTC. He's simply leasing it.

Silverstein never ordered WTC7 to be demolished by saying “pull it.”

a.. “Pull it” is not a demolition term and experts in demolition say they never heard of the phrase “pull it” to mean demolish a building (Pop Mech, “Debunking 9/11” p.57)

b. Actually, “pulling” men out is a firefighter term and this is what Silverstein meant. He issued a statement on 9/5/2005 saying he only meant to pull firefighters out of a dangerous situation since WTC7 was leaning at this point.

c.. In addition, NIST said there was “no evidence that the collapse of WTC7 was caused by bombs, missles, or controlled demolition.” (PM, p.58)

Answer 6

I think that it had to have some people on the inside collaborating, how else could anyone involved have known that on that day there would be air force drills, (specifically about hijacked planes all over the US), that would confuse the air force thus allowing those hijacked planes to fly where ever they wanted with no air force escort?, and why else would the US have not allowed proper disaster investigation of the WTC even though federal law requires it? There are tons of other bizarre inconsistencies, far to many to be completely coincidental or based purely upon incompetence.

Frankly we will never know what actually happened though because the 911 commission was a joke and most of the evidence has been completely destroyed.

Answer 7

I believe the official version because of the mountains of evidence in support of it, the fact that all the evidence against it doesn't hold up to scrutiny, and the simple fact that if it was somehow an inside job, by now someone or something would have come forward to prove that, such as a conspirator or a document. The utter lack of any corroboration in the face of the scientifically proven conclusions of the official story should keep anyone from believing the conspiracy theories.

Answer 8

No, But it has been used as an excuse for desotrying the constitution by stripping the citizens and residents of this country of their most basic rights such as privacy, and security.
attacks on the Twin towers happened in 1993 and they were always a target, not protecting them was foolish and irresponsible, and the fact that there have been no more attacks says nothing 8 past before there was another attack.

Answer 9

I think 9/11 was going to happen reguardless of who was President at the time, we just unfortunately have a President who would rather invade Iraq rather than stick by his word. Remember when he said "the people who brought those buildings down would be brought to justice?" that was how many years ago? I mean c'mon there are only so many places bin laden could be hiding, what are we going to find him in a hole just like that other rat?

Answer 10

Because the only logical reason to classify and hide so much evidence is if it incriminates the wrong party... like your own government. Why release so little and classify so much? There were no plane wreckages visible in any photos in PA or at the Pentagon. Tons of quotes from the people at the scenes seem to point more toward government involvement. Why were our protective agencies befuddled with their heads up their butts? Too many questions that, when answered by anyone, only make you more pissed off and suspicious. Why did the owner say to 'pull' the last building, but then we're told the fires braught it down? Have you seen the clip of #5 falling down? That look like fire? Did they run in while it was on fire and plant the explosives to bring it down because the fires were not controllable? If I thought it would help I'd post a hundred more questions I honostly would like to know the answers to. Imagine the probability and luck involved in having a few dozen guys hijack four commercial airliners and hit 75% of their targets... here... in the U.S.A.

Answer 11

Not. If it was there are a lot more unpatriotic people in the U.S. than estimated and the mass of them are in New York. How would this be kept a secret this long. Even Sandy Burglar had to steal documents to keep the secrets he knew and we found out he stole those documents. You believe al qaeda when they say they are winning but not when they claim responsibility for the world trade center. Hmm...typical "demon"crat.
