Seven Lesser Known Incredible Facts About 9/11
| Share | Tweet |
The world of thousands of people shattered on the fateful day of 9/11. This date is marked as one of the darkest days in the history of mankind. For those who witnessed the widespread destruction that day will not forget it for the rest of their lives. One thing is for sure, the impact of this inhuman and evil act will be felt for many years to come.

A series of suicide attacks were planned by the terrorist outfit Al-Qaeda on USA on September 11, 2001. Nineteen terrorists hijacked four passenger jet airliners. They purposely crashed two airliners in the Twin Towers of the WTC in New York City, killing those in the plane and in the building. Within two hours, both buildings collapsed destroying other buildings located nearby. Third airliner was crashed into the Pentagon in Arlington, Virginia, outside Washington D.C. And, the last plane was rammed into a field near Shanksville in rural Pennsylvania. There were no survivors left from any of the causalities.
Here, I bring to you a few interesting and less known facts about 9/11 attacks.
1. The Story Behind The Steel Used
The complete examination of World Trade Center steel could have easily revealed the after effects of explosives. However, it was surprising that it was shipped and melted down overseas. This, in fact, was the violation of federal laws associated with crime scene.
2. Three, Not Two Buildings Damaged
Everyone is well aware of the fact that the Twin Towers collapsed on 9/11, however only a few people know that a third WTC high rise building also fell that day. World Trade Center Building 7 was also affected badly. A 47-story steel-framed skyscraper built one block away from the Twin Towers also collapsed at 5:20 in the evening. It was not hit by the plane, however it collapsed in the manner of a professionally engineered demolition. Larry Silverstein, the leaseholder of the three buildings said, that on the afternoon of 9/11 I suggested to the NYC fire department commander that they “pull” WTC 7”. “Pull” is an industry term means “demolish,” however it usually takes skilled professionals several weeks to implement big demolitions. Surprisingly, the collision of this building is not mentioned in the 571-page 9/11 Commission Report.
3. A Planned Massacre
Many people think it was fire that led to the collision of buildings, however this is not true. Fire has never, neither after nor prior to September 11, led to the collision of steel-framed buildings. In fact, the explosive and sudden collapse of the buildings at near free fall speed can be well explained by any controlled demolition.
4. Fire Due to Explosion
On September 16th 2001, NASA flew a plane over the WTC site and recorded infra-red radiations were raising upwards from the ground. They prepared a thermal map which was analysed by the U.S. Geological Survey. After studying it thoroughly, U.S. Geological Survey department determined the rubble temperature. This data revealed that even after five days of collision of Building 7, the temperature of the surface was 1341º F. This high temperature indicated the use of explosives.
5. Perpetrators US Trained
According to the Guardian and BBC, some hijackers of 9/11 attack are still alive. According to the Newsweek, five of these hijackers might have trained at the U.S. Military Base.
6. Bush Denied Investigations
Surprisingly, the Bush government attempted to resist the formation of the 9/11 Commission for about 441 days. Earlier, investigations in the incidents like the space shuttle disaster, the JFK assassination and Pearl Harbor started within a period of one week.
7. Security Incharge Close Aid To Bush
President Bush’s cousin Wirt Walker III and his own brother Marvin Bush were the key people in the company responsible for the security of World Trade Center. Walker remained the CEO of security from1999 until January 2002.

17.46.31 at 5:46 pmI can’t help but doubt any report that cannot even use correct wording. I refer specifically to “collision” being misused several times. “Fire has never … led to the collision of steel-framed buildings” I would hope a fire wouldn’t cause buildings to collide, heck the buildings shouldn’t be moving in the first place.
An otherwise decent article cannot be taken seriously if it sounds like it was written by a child. If you want people to stop thinking Truthers are just fringe fanatics we need to start presenting ourselves as professionals. -

10.26.52 at 10:26 amAgain with the 9/11 Truther bulls–t about planned demolitions and 9/11 being an inside job. This is getting tiresome. These people have no facts to back them up. Fire can cause a building to collapse, when you add gallons of jet fuel! There has been no report of the 9/11 hijackers being alive by the BBC or the Guardian! Stop with your bulls–t lies and misinformation.
These people are absolutely nuts and don’t care about actual facts. Get over yourself Truthers. You’ve lost. The world will never believe your idiocy.

22.20.53 at 10:20 pmwell you can argue about other things “truthers” bring up but I have yet to hear a “propaganda believer” explain how the bbc managed to report building 7 (the first building to fall by fire alone) with stunning accuracy an hour and again 20 minutes before it fell. You can even see the building smoldering in the background. seems like they got the time wrong on the script the pentagon gave them http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C7SwOT29gbc

17.07.18 at 5:07 pmAll seven of these “facts” are either inaccurate, wrong or distortions. Nothing written here has any accuracy. go to http://www.911myths.com and look up these claims. Follow the primary sources and see that all 7 are debunked crap.
1. Concerning the steel. IT was hand sorted at the fresh kills landfill. It was examined by several teams of engineers and then shipped off to china. No laws were broken. (usually this claim comes from a set of protocols which are NOT laws)
2. 3 buildings collapsed on 9/11 over 12 were damaged. Already this opening claim was wrong. It wasn’t 3 buildings damaged. As for wtc7. The 9/11 commission report was NOT looking into wtc7 for several reasons including it was not specifically attacked. it was damaged in the collapse of the towers. They (the 9/11 CR) did not look into any of the other buildings which were damaged that day.
3. is wrong on several levels. There have been several steel framed buildings which have collapsed due to fire. No steel framed SKYSCRAPER has, because there haven’t been enough of them. Though the Meridian one fire, and the first interstate fires had massive weakening and steel losing its strength.In wtc 5 and 6 there were localized collapses due to FIRE alone. Oops.
The other lie in #3 is that CD of buildings leads to near freefall… no it doesn’t. YOu should time CD’s fo buildings to see that they dont’ fall at freefall either.
4. explosives don’t keep areas HOT for days after an explosion. The reason the temperatures were that high is due to underground/rubble fires. The FDNY were NOT fighting the fire until 2 weeks AFTER 9/11 because they were trying to “rescue” people. AS such, there were plenty of underground fires burning.
5. Ah yes.. hijackers still alive. You might want to look up the BBC article you are talking about. Take a good look at the DATE. Before 10/1/11 there was some confusion about the hijackers names. That would be because many of them HAD COMMON NAMES. is there only one Michael Jackson in the world? Do mistakes with the names happen? yup. The BBC wrote an article and RETRACTED their earlier article about “hijackers” alive. Look it up
6. Now why would a politician who let 3000 of his citizens get killed because of arrogance and ignorance want to delay any investigation into the events? Amazing that… It might find him to be responsible for their deaths.. it would be amazing if he could be elected to DOG CATCHER after something like that. Absolutely amazing.
7. Ah yes… stratesec connections… and the “cousin” in charge of WTC security. You might wnt to look that up too.

01.25.54 at 1:25 amYou must be joking I guess Mr.William. Underground fires that caused the high temperatures ? Sure fires need oxygen, at least that’s what I was told at school. Apparently you skipped school.
And another thing. Between all the rubble on the surface as by pure coincidence they found one of the hijacker’s passport. Sure. Since when is an hijacker doing his job with his passport on him . His real passport that is. And the passport was undamaged too. Well another miracle I guess.
Open your eyes. Your gov’t did it and they’ve done and will continue to try to cover up everything about it.
