Well said & thanks,just as the 9/11 perp's were suicidal al Qaeda extremists on a terror mission, targeting civilians and symbols of American greatness, the Japanese military in the final stages of the war trained and sent soldiers on one way suicide attacks and prepared their people for mass sacrificial resistance. Western civilization’s common sense prevailed in that world war of terror, just as it will in the future.

"The September 11 attacks, colloquially known as 9/11, were a coordinated series of suicide attacks perpetrated by the Islamic terrorist organization al Qaeda against the United States in 2001".

There were later video and audio recordings of bin Laden broadcast saying he was responsible, but they are dubious recordings and some have been debunked by experts saying potential look alikes were used.

And then, on a lie, they attacked Iraq, which had nothing to do with 9/11 indeed, al-Qaeda and Saddam Hussein were ideological enemies ushering in the deaths of hundreds of thousands of innocent people and helping create the cataclysm that followed across the region. And then, in one of history's more extraordinary ironies, America ended up welcoming Ahmed al-Sharaa, a former al-Qaeda leader who had fought US forces in Iraq, first to the diplomatic table and ultimately to the White House. Trump, it seems, has a particular fondness for the former enemies of America — provided, of course, that they can shake his hand and tell him what a great guy he is. Fear replaced Hope and fear created Trump and wars against Islamic shadows in Arab lands - and all the time Netanhayu played his devilish hand along with his cohorts in the American corridors of power.

Edit - I note riclag's comment above and I will let my post stand as a riposte to his argument such as it is - his support for DJT in this context is noted.

On Friday,Another assault on America and its traditions took place at New York's Yankee Stadium when a man stormed the field during the 9/11 Subway Series game waving a Palestinian flag. On a night meant to honor the nearly 3k victims of the terrorist attacks,turned a moment of remembrance into a political stunt. Security removed him to loud boos, showing that most Americans still reject attempts to hijack 9/11 for unrelated causes.

And the rest as they say is history - like Trump Netanhyu gloated as what this meant for Israel before the bodies were even counted and dragged the US into ruinous wars which was Bin Ladins plan all along.

Asked tonight what the attack meant for relations between the United States and Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu, the former prime minister, replied, ''It's very good.'' Then he edited himself: ''Well, not very good, but it will generate immediate sympathy.'' He predicted that the attack would ''strengthen the bond between our two peoples, because we've experienced terror over so many decades, but the United States has now experienced a massive hemorrhaging of terror.''

In an appearance late tonight, Prime Minister Ariel Sharon repeatedly placed Israel on the same ground as the United States, calling the assault an attack on ''our common values'' and declaring, ''I believe together we can defeat these forces of evil.'' He declared Wednesday a day of mourning.

Saudi Business people, their Entire Embassy and their Consulate in New York staff/families were shuttles out on the only civilian aircraft that was allowed to fly that day, and days afterward. Bin Ladin did say "I had no idea it would be this good!!" The question is.........why only Saudi's?? How or why were they singled out as in Danger for their lives - BEFORE we knew the perpetrators were Saudi's?? One day we will know - maybe. Peace

Don't get caught up in the baseball rivalry, Bush wasn't a Yankee fan, its not what the first video is about .

25 years ago, after 19 foreign terrorists murdered nearly 3k Americans, Potus Bush walked onto the mound at Yankee Stadium and the crowd answered with thunderous chants of "USA USA"! that shook the nation. This week, when an intruder tried to desecrate the 9/11 anniversary game by running onto the same field with a Palestinian flag, the stands again erupted ,this time in boos for the radical and the same defiant "USA USA" That unbroken spirit of patriotism is exactly what the international left still fails to understand or share.

Remembering President Bush’s First Pitch at Yankee Stadium After 9/11

and now Boo's on the intruder and chants of USA USA USA.

Your certainty that there was no conspiracy is just as misplaced as the certainty expressed by those who think there was.

Not sure how people stil don't believe the official theory.

It's clear who did the attack - they even found one of the hijackers passport near the crime scene.

CBS and other trusted media companies approved by AN even reported that on TV (see vid below) - but people have short memories.

How do the conspiracy theorists still dispute this stuff???

Hopefully this put this nonsense to bed once and for all!

6000 (approx) are estimated to have died from various respiratory illnesses, as a result of various toxic substances released due to the collapse of the buildings, such as asbestos. The 6000 estimate comes from the CDC, from the number of people who signed up to the federal 9/11 health programme. Jon Stewart campaigned for more transparency. New York City collected more than 170,000 pages of data, and then they fought in court for years to prevent the public from seeing it.

After the attacks, the EPA Administrator Christine Todd Whitman issued a statement assuring New Yorkers that the air was safe to breath. This is now known to be a lie.

In March 2002, Congressman Jerry Nadler issued a report accusing officials of a cover up

https://nadler.house.gov/sites/nadler.house.gov/files/documents/epa%20white%20paper%20final%203_11.pdf?utm_campaign=194618-238

In 2016, Whitman apologised for getting it wrong, claiming they issued assurances based on what they knew at the time, ie a mistake.

A few days ago, the documents that NYC resisted being disclosed were released. All 170,000 pages are available at:

https://sept11documents.cityofnewyork.us/

Key is a document called the "Harding Memo"

https://www.911healthwatch.org/files/Court-Submission-20260205.pdf

The memo appears to be a risk assessment, revealing that the City of New York was more worried about protection from liability risks than safeguarding its residents from the dangers of contaminants covering lower Manhattan in October of 2001, just weeks after the World Trade Center collapse. 

Essentially, the “Harding memo,” was sent to Deputy Mayor Robert Harding in October 2001. It warned of roughly 35,000 potential claims, including lawsuits over health advisories that either brought people back too soon or kept them away too long. The memo also noted risks from faulty equipment and slip-and-fall injuries, and it suggested seeking federal compensation for liability.

It confirms, in contrary to the EPA statement in 2016, that the EPA and the City knew there were serious health risks far earlier than the public was led to believe. he Harding Memo documents internal awareness of the dangerous environmental conditions present in the aftermath of the World Trade Center collapse, including concerns about airborne toxins, dust composition, and long-term health risks to those working and living in the area. Rather than reflecting hindsight, the memo captures real-time discussions about:

• The presence of hazardous materials in the air and debris

• Concerns about exposure to responders and the surrounding community

• Awareness of potential long-term health consequences

• Decisions about how information was communicated publicly

These conditions were not unpredictable and the potential risks were known. Many individuals were placed in harm’s way without full transparency about the dangers they faced. The Memo is likely to be the cornerstone of a huge lawsuit.

They didn't see nothing 🙈

No one could have imagined taking a plane on a suicide mission. Never happened before...

That is the case, but an irrelevance to the point being made. You are obviously one of those Pacifists, a Conchie, if you had the chance. The vast majority of the dead at Hiroshima, Nagasaki and Dresden were not enemy combatants. The only military target in Hiroshima was the Second General Army HQ. Quite obviously an Atomic bomb was not needed to destroy that, nor was needed to destroy the railway marshalling yards (which only saw light damage, since the bomb was targeted at the city centre, not the industrial suburbs). I am not questioning where it was right to erect a memorial to Bomber Harris and others, but pointing out the falsehood to suggest all of our War Memorials are dedicated to civilian victims. They are not. The annual Cenotaph March is principally to mark the sacrifice of soldier, sailors, airman, and the civilians who died in the war effort. Perhaps you and your ilk, the sorts who wear white poppies, would prefer that memorials should only memorialise the civilian victims of wars, while trivialising the efforts of those in uniform.
