 This is a 1.5 hour long documentary asking pretty much all
 the questions that need to be answered about 9/11. Not all
 of it adds up 100%, but this is by far the best documentary
 about 9/11 and it makes it pretty obvious that the
 "official" account of the events given by the U.S.
 government is a bunch of bullshit. Please if you have some
 free time just watch this, even if you aren't American. This
 country needs help, bad. Even if you don't have time to
 watch the whole thing, just watch as much of it as you can.
 If this has been posted here before or is common knowledge
 to some of you, I appologize as I am merely trying to spread
 the word.

 i saw this on public access tv a few months ago, and its
 incredibly well presented and non-bs.
 
 this pretty much convinced me just due to the fact that the

 | I watched this thing it's utter bullshit. How come a small plane on slow approach is knocked out of the sky by light
 poles but a jumbo jet barreling at full speed knocks them
 over? How come a WW2 prop plane crashed into the Empire
 State building and it didnt fall down but a jet with a full
 load of fuel plows into the world trade center at top speed
 and it gets knocked down? Geez it must be a conspiracy. Most
 of the arguments they present are idiotic. If you want to
 know the truth of why the WTC came down check out this:

 | Yah but if you watch that Loose Change video, they claim the planes crashing into the building wasn't what brought it
 down but controlled explosives that were places in the
 building the week before. They also claim it was a cruise
 missle that hit the pentagon and random wreckage was strewn
 about afterward. Oh and btw, the original "highjacked"
 planes landed somewhere and the passengers disembarked
 before all this happened. Seriously, how high do you have to
 be for this to make sense?

 | I think less energy should be spent trying to get people to take accountability for what happened, and more should be
 spent on figuring out healthy ways to deal with it. Its
 pretty much accepted that the US government had a bigger
 hand in the events than they are willing to admit.

 What was the original frame rate of that video though and
 how fast was the plane going? Seems reasonable for the FBI
 to confiscate surveillance tapes ASAP considering the scale
 of the crime and that it happened in Washington D.C. you
 would certainly expect a very very short response time.

 no shit, but the question stands: why have the tapes not
 been released, if the government has nothing to hide?

 I guess I should have asked everyone to watch the thing in
 its entirety, since taking parts of it out of context
 (especially the parts that I feel are poorly done) can give
 you a bad impression of the documentary. Wherever you sit on
 this issue, Loose Change might give you some things to think
 about. Like I said, not all of it adds up 100%, but there
 are some interesting parts.

 | It's stoney because the whole thing is backed with this ridiculous hip hop beat and the guy that narrates it sounds
 like he is about 25 and at time speaks some very poorly
 written commentary - it's like being trapped at some party
 with a dude smoking a bowl spinning all this nonsense for
 you. If you want me to take your theories on 9/11 seriously
 don't back the whole movie with fat beats. I was at a skate
 shop the other day and they were playing this movie.
 Seriously.
 
 "no shit, but the question stands: why have the tapes not
 been released, if the government has nothing to hide? "
 
 Uh, you know they just released the 911 tapes from the WTC
 today and even that had half the conversation cut out. I
 don't think all the tapes from the Oklahoma city bombing
 have been released either. Just because they haven't
 released the surveillence tapes doesn't mean the ridiculous
 theories in this doc are any more credible. Bush and co.
 have a policy of ony declassifying info that shows them in a
 positive light or backs up their case for pointless wars.
 
 "im not particularly convinced of the wtc event, but the
 pentagon just doesnt add up. at all. a 16 ft hole cause by
 a
 757? utter bullshit."
 
 You tell me which sounds more like bullshit:
 
 a. according to loose change: the plane that crashed into
 the wtc was not really highjacked but goverment agents flew
 it to a secluded airport where the passengers disembarked
 (btw what happened to the passengers? Were they killed? Are
 they in a secret prison?) the plane was then replaced with a
 miltary jet that crashed into the pentagon via remote
 control(?) or it was a cruise missle and random airplane
 parts were put there by the goverment for a photo op. Even
 after watching the doc I can't figure out what theory they
 are advocating.
 
 b. Al Queda terrorists highjacked the plane with box cutters
 and flew it into the pentagon killing all the passengers
 aboard.
 
 Hmm. Now which of these makes more sense to you? The alien
 autopsy documentary was more believable than this.

 | if the scale of the crime was so "large" why did they haul up the wreckage of the wtcs under armed guard and then flog
 it to the far east for cheap scrap? no analysis, no
 nothing?
 
 oh, and the guy that owned the buildings said they "pulled"
 WTC 7, but the 9/11 commission reports it came down by
 fire.
 
 and they originally said there'd be no commission, only
 after pressure from families of victims did they open one,
 it was a total joke and they fronted Henry Kissinger as it's
 front man!

 pentagon? jesus christ man you are exactly the kind of

 | "if the scale of the crime was so "large" why did they haul up the wreckage of the wtcs under armed guard and then flog
 it to the far east for cheap scrap? no analysis, no
 nothing? "
 
 Because the rubble was toxic and they wanted to keep people
 from grabbing peices of it as grisly souviners?
 
 "and they originally said there'd be no commission, only
 after pressure from families of victims did they open one,
 it was a total joke and they fronted Henry Kissinger as
 it's
 front man!"
 
 This has more to do with Bush's fear of being held up in a
 bad light than somebody being worried about them finding out
 some X-Files secret.
 
 "so, because, in your opinion, option B sounds more likely,
 that means that a 757 would only create a 16 ft hole in the
 pentagon? jesus christ man you are exactly the kind of
 person who eats up everything the government throws at you
 with a shit-eating grin."
 
 Read this first: http://www.snopes.com/rumors/pentagon.htm
 
 I know you will probably think snopes is in on the
 conspiracy, but humor me. The other thing is that conspiracy
 theorist always point to the fact that the plane struck the
 only rennovated and reinforced portion of the building, and
 then say the scale of the destruction is some sort of clue
 to a conspiracy. Seems a bit like trying to have your cake
 and eat it too.
 
 I dislike Bush and crew as much as anyone. There is so much
 legitimate shady shit to look into in regards to prewar Iraq
 intelligence, torture, warentless wiretapping, the list goes
 on and on. Why get distracted by all this conspiracy junk
 when there is real stuff to beat them up with?

 toxic from what exactly? don't say asbestos cos fema said
 the area was safe - even though it wasn't. the debris was
 under armed guard, who's going to steal it? the whole area
 was sectioned off
 
 No steel building has ever fallen from fire and yet three
 did in one day... check building 7 out... remember it
 had only two small fires admittedly, and yet the owner says
 the fire dept "pulled" it - how? it takes days if not weeks
 to rig a building for demolition
 
 and building 7 was full of govt agencies like the cia, fbi,
 dia, nsa and on and on
 
 the whole thing stinks

 From Wikipedia:
 Thousands of tons of toxic debris resulting from the
 collapse of the Twin Towers included asbestos, lead, and
 mercury, as well as unprecedented levels of dioxin and PAHs
 from the fires which burned for three months. This has led
 to debilitating illnesses among rescue and recovery workers,
 as well as some residents, students, and office workers of
 Lower Manhattan and nearby Chinatown.
 
 "No steel building has ever fallen from fire and yet three
 did in one day..."
 
 A fire is one thing, a jumbo jet full of fuel going at 400
 miles an hour into a building is another thing. Apples and
 oranges.

 Seriously, why does every descrepency instantly lead people
 to believe there is some huge dark conspiracy?

 Don't know if you bothered to read the link I posted before
 but you might try giving it a look, it really is a great
 explanation about the physics behind the collapse:

 | FEMA denied the area was toxic - therefore you can't use it as your argument for why the scrap was shipped
 off so quick.
 
 if the fires were so hot, why was the smoke pouring out
 black (no huge flames) and people can be seen in the
 holes?
 
 and the construction manager of the wtc's disagree with you,
 the buildings were designed to withstand planes hitting them

 not only is that a factor, but in the PBS documentary "why
 the towers fell" they clearly omit the central steel column
 frame of the building. They act like it completely doesn't
 exist. Also they say fire was able to bend and elasticize
 the steel because the airplane impact cause all of the fire
 retardant to "fall off" the steel columns. If the tower fell
 because of a bending and lose of integrity in the steel ,
 which is near impossible because steel needs a temperature
 of at least 1500 degrees to elasticize, then it would have
 fallen more slowly instead of a near freefall collapse. It
 fell a mere 1 second longer than if you held a piece of
 steel at the hieght of the tower and let it drop through an
 actual vacuum.
 Wouldn't the floors below cause some resistance if it was
 indeed a pancake collapse?  Its strange to me that concrete
 and steel almost have the same resistance as air if you
 believe the official story, because it defies the laws of
 physics.
 Can the weight of the floors above cause everything below it
 to be literally powderized and then carried in the air as
 far as Ney jersey?

 thats true, except if you listen to the firefighter tapes
 you can hear several firefighters saying they think the fire
 could be easily controlled with "2 lines" within one hour.
 
 not only that but the fire caused by the debris inside
 (desks, computers, carpet, walls, etc) cannot get hot enough
 to melt or bend steel. Sure it might have caused a partial
 collapse with pieces of the building falling off. But it is
 physically impossible for it to have caused the building to
 freefall collapse in 7 seconds.

 | Maybe you notice I am posting links to sites like Wikipedia (which if you bother to look at the bottom lists its
 sources), Snopes, PBS, etc. and you are posting links to
 conspiracy sites and blogs. So let's not argue about
 reliable sources of information.
 
 "FEMA denied the area was toxic - therefore you
 can't use it as your argument for why the scrap was shipped
 
 off so quick."
 
 How long should the rubble have been left around to satisfy
 the conspiracy theorists? The Nova documentary I've been
 posting the link to describes how a team of engineers
 inspected the rubble to figure out exactly why the buildings
 collapsed. Apparently any conclusion that doesn't lead to
 some ludicrious far flung conspiracy will always leave a
 segment of people unsatisfied. It seems to me your problem
 is less about how long the rubble was left around than it is
 about the rational conclusions the engineers reached.
 
 BTW, here is a Sierra Club report on how toxic all that junk
 was: http://www.sierraclub.org/groundzero/
 
 "and the construction manager of the wtc's disagree with
 you,
 the buildings were designed to withstand planes hitting them
 "
 
 Obviously he was wrong and again, this link explains why:
 http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/wtc/collapse.html
 I'm sure this Dr. from MIT is probably in on the conspiracy
 as well.

 Hah, have you ever watched an episode of Frontline? PBS is
 10x harder on the Bush administration and goverment agencies
 than the mainstream media. Or maybe that is what they want
 us to think? OOoooOOOooo
