You have the times of the towers falling reversed--the south tower fell first at 9:59 even though it was the second one struck.

It was more heavily damaged by the initial crash.

Check out the "History Channel" now
They have some american groups blaming the american goverment for the attacks, saying the planes were just a cover up and an excuse to go to war.

Nope, it won't fly, Karl. We are not a united country, willing to make the sacrafices that our country made in those times.

We are all so fat and happy thinking about ourselves, me included,thinking about what we are going to buy next.

Meantime these Terrorists are planning our demise, make no mistake about it.

Can't stick your head in the sand, but that's what we do unless ,and until it hits our own families.

Just listen to binladen's last message,
suggesting we change our relegion in America.

In other words that's his only solution.

At some point this will be a fight to the finish.

yeah we should all change to Satan worshipers and send Bin Laden and all his followers to meet our man

When I first heard of it on the radio, messages were mixed and confused. At first, I thought that there had been a terrible accident, a wayward plane had crashed into one of the Towers. Then the second happened. I was uncomprehending. One of my co-workers decided to go find a TV at a pub and find out what had happened. We found that the World had changed forever.
