I’ve been looking into the events of 9/11 for over a year now and have become more horrified with every passing day. Much of the explanation provided by officials simply doesn’t make sense given the historical record of the events on that day. More and more eyewitnesses, scientists, engineers, firemen, pilots and academics are coming forward to talk about the events of 9/11, examine the remaining evidence from the day and ask questions. Simple things like:

• Why did the WTC twin towers collapse so quickly in such a short time (~12seconds)?
• Why didn’t the U.S Airforce intercept any of the hijacked planes, even 1-2 hours after the first attack?
• Why did WTC 7, the one NOT hit by planes or seriously on fire, collapse so quickly and so neatly (~6 seconds)?
• Why did firemen and bystanders on the scene hear and feel explosions in the basements of the WTC towers?
• Why wasn’t there ANY remaining plane debris at the Pentagon crash?
• Why is the Pentagon’s initial impact damage only 1 round hole, 16′ across with no visible damage from wings, engines or vertical stabilizer? Why is there a neat hole punched out of the 3rd interior ring?

Why was all the physical debris evidence from the WTC sites destroyed within the first months after the attacks? Shouldn’t it all have been stored and pored over in minute detail by every relevant government agency? Why was no official investigation into the events of 911 begun for over 400 days? The 911 commission was given minimal money and scant time and the resulting report would seem to indicate that they were also given a directive to ignore the facts and make the story fit a prescribed theory. The 911 Commission report is widely recognized as being incomplete, shoddy and negligent in its analysis. Why is it that the FBI still has not implicated Osama Bin Laden in the attacks of 911?

One of the best 911 documentaries out there on this subject is called Loose Change. It looks into many of the questions posed above, asks many more and systematically presents the evidence that remains to us…e.g video clips of the live news coverage of the events of that day, eyewitness testimony and official reports.
