It doesn't matter if the tsunami killed 100 times more people... it's still the result of a natural phenomenon... totally different from the 9/11 attacks.

I think they should remember 9/11 by crashing a plane into a building every year, how's that sound sensitive suzie?

its so obvious this was controlled
the building would not just fall into itself, it would atleast bend or break and defferent sections, like how is the the whole foundation blown to dust
just fuck'd

absolutely unreal and tragic event | yes.... there was some footage that i had never seen before, especially the radio playback from the fire crews that were in the towers in sync with footage from the outside right up to and during the collapse of both towers. there was one scene in particular, just after the massive dust cloud hit from the second collapse, a cameraman happened across a dove( maybe a pigeon?) that fell from the sky and was fluttering around in the ash and debris on the sidewalk.... so sad | |

ok seriously now, to say that this was a controlled explosion is absolute garbage. i guess the weight of 30-40 floors in tower 1 and the 50-60 floors in tower 2 were as heavy as marshmallows? come the fuck on. thats TONS of steel and concrete, not to mention the weight from all the office furniture, electronics, fixtures and people.
any idea how hot jet fuel burns at? you really think nothing was going to melt or buckle from the pressure of all that weight?
it's called a domino effect which can CLEARLY be seen in the footage. once the top portion gives way, the sheer momentum it gains from crushing one floor is enough to what..? MAKE THE TOWERS COME DOWN.
even IF you say there were explosives planted near the bottom of the towers, how can you prove it was the doing of the US gov't? who's to say that the terrorists didn't do the planting? they hijacked 4 commercial planes with 19 people, why wouldn't they ensure that the towers came down? THAT WAS THE WHOLE FUCKING POINT.

absolutely unreal and tragic event | i really enjoyed the way everything was presented - without a narrator. i remember watching that douche in Times Square saying he was glad about what happened. its been a long time since ive seen that.

i think that guy was being sarcastic. here he was witnessing a terrorist attack and some dude is shoving a camera in his face asking how it makes him feel. at the end, he basically told the camera guy to get out of his face. a lot of people actually had that reaction to the camera men.

fact that the building is not made to withstand the weight of a jetliner, 747 or 767 (whatever they were) 900,000lbs. plus the weight of the fuel.
Under that weight and fire, any building will give way
when the planes smashed they must have taken down the support beams or atleast damages them
