9/11 Was an Inside Job
9/11 Conspiracy:
Terrorism or Fraud?
8 October 2013

Abstract
Over the past decade, the American government’s integrity has come into question for a number of reasons. Many conspiracy theorists believe that the War on Terror was started on purpose and that the American government or large corporations were actually behind the terrorist attack on 9/11. There are numerous reasons for them to believe this, because the stories the government created to cover up 9/11 are quite really pathetic in some cases. Americans now know of many of the details regarding the attack. A few days before the occurrence, there was extremely unusual stock activity that included record numbers of “put-options” put on American and United Airlines. Milliseconds before the buildings came down, eyewitnesses say they heard sounds of explosions going off inside the towers. Many also pondered why the buildings fell straight down like a controlled demolition when they should have fallen to the side. At the Pentagon, even more inexplicable things were happening. The plane that hit the building left no wing marks and there were no airplane parts found. Also, the FBI came and took away all surveillance videos that recorded the crash including surrounding businesses’ videos. Are all of these coincidences? I think not.

On September 11th of 2001, the United States of America was attacked for the second time in history on their own soil. Most Americans remember where they were and what they were doing when news of this heartbreaking story broke. In the beginning, the nation was mostly awe-struck and sad, but within just a few months, questions began to raise. Sadly, one of the worst tragedies in the history of the United States, 9/11, was an inside job. From the uncommon stock activity preceding the attack, eyewitness and expert accounts at the Twin Towers, and the unusual activity at the Pentagon, it is quite clear that this

    Another prominent conspiracy is that the collapse of the Twin Towers and the 7 World Trade Center were the result of a controlled destruction than a structural failure due to the fire and impact. In reality, the Twin Towers collapsed as a result of being struck by two jet airliners. However, that explanation hasn’t persuaded conspiracy theorists. The collapse of the Twin Towers destroyed the rest of the complex, and the debris from the collapsing towers severely damaged the surrounding structures and buildings. Later on that day, the 7 World Trade Center collapsed from the fires that had started when the North Tower collapsed. Following the attacks, the building performance study team, or BPS, found that the aircraft impacts caused extensive structural damage, including localized collapse and that the resulting fires furthered weakened the steel beam structures which lead to the collapse.…

    This is a question that is asked by more than just conspiracy theorists, it’s wondered by Americans all around. Theorists say that it was shot down by a missile, disintegrated in mid-air, and spread the debris over a larger area than we originally thought. Finally, another theory that is commonly asked is “How could a skyscraper which wasn’t hit by a plane, collapse so quickly and symmetrically, when no other steel framed skyscraper has collapsed because of fire?” Theorists say that the WTC building was destroyed by a controlled demolition using explosives and incendiaries. These conspiracy theories may or may not be true, but are commonly asked among our…

    Certainly. Was it bush? Also certainly. However the reasoning is very profound for this as he made money. As is the evidence abundant. World Trade Center 7 was also brought down on that day, a building without any fire damage at all. One may ask what can be gained from such an event by the building owners, Larry Silverstein the owner had opened a multi-billion dollar insurance policy on the complex which covered explicitly bombings and terrorism.…

    For about the past ten years, I have always believed that the attacks on September 11 were controlled by the Iraqis and their leader Osama Bin laden. About a month ago, I was recommended by a friend to watch the movie Loose Change 9/11. After watching this movie, it totally changed my outlook on what actually happened to the World Trade Centers and the Pentagon. The movie shows how there are a series of “coincidences” on how things actually happened that the world never found out about, until now.…

    I think that 9/11 could definitely be an “inside job” and this is why. First point is why and the world would all this happen after the country loses an insane amount of money. You don’t just lose 2.3 Trillion dollars especially being America the big bad country. I think that someone was blackmailing us with information soldiers something along those lines and gave it to someone. Obviously if everyone found out about this money the country would be upset people would be fired and everyone would go crazy so why not hide it. Second reason is why were no high government officials in the building when it collapsed. Did they all go out to lunch or have a dentist appointment. Third how in the world does an amazingly strong technologically advanced building just collapse. I can see the top part falling over like a tree but you don't cut down a tree from a side like a lumberjack and the whole tree fall down destroying the stump. That's just not how gravity works the part of the building above where the plane hit did not have the inertia to take out the tallest and strongest skyscraper in the country. Also if you watch the videos in the collapse it goes outwards in a very strange way. Also a window 20 stories down just blew out for no reason none of the others did. I guess that's enough of my…

    9/11 Conspiracy Theorists

    As with all events in history, there will be at least one, sometimes several, naysayers in the crowd and the events of September 11th 2001 are no exception. The United States Government presented the facts to the world but some just couldn't grasp it. The incident raised questions in everyone's mind, specifically how could this happen? President Bush was quick to state that Osama bin Laden and his ultra radical Islamist followers overpowered the crew on four airliners, then used them as missiles, crashing them into the Pentagon, World Trade Center and Pennsylvania farm land. But some believe the U.S. Government played a part in 9/11, to the where they may have even orchestrated it from its beginnings. The general goal of a conspiracy theorist is to show the world not to take everything said in the media or by the government at face value. Though a little skepticism is good, there's a point in which it's beyond healthy. In the case of 9/11, these theorists are simply those who enjoy getting television and radio airtime, no matter the cause, expense or implausible conjecture.…

    The government claimed that building 7 was destroyed by fires which reached it from other close-by buildings. Scientists, however, disagree stating that fires alone could not reduce a steal skyscraper to rubble. Furthermore, investigators were not allowed to take samples or even go near the collapsed building yet scientists were able to get samples of dust from ground zero. We can only assume that the government was trying to hide something about the collapse of WTC 7. The officials from the National Institute of Standards and Technology say that a three year long investigation was carried out, which discovered that WTC 7 collapsed because of internal uncontrolled fires that were caused by the collapse of the close-by North WTC. These fires continued for seven hours as the main water sprinkler connection had been severed. No evidence of explosives were found and no videos recorded sounds loud enough to be an…

    9/11 - the Conspiracy

    The day of September 11th, 2001 the world witnessed with disbelief as the World Trade Center in New York City came crashing down. The shock the attacks generated and the some 3,000 or more people it killed made it one of the brutal attacks in history. One may only wonder how such a grand scaled attack could be carried through. Although controversial, evidence suggests that the September 11th attacks in 2001 were an inside job and the statements of the Bush administration following them were a fabricated truth that many people believed. Unfortunately the tragic event has scarred the lives of many people globally and changed the course of the near future.[1]…

    The role of the American government has always been to protect its people at all costs. Does that include lying to its people or covering up an event? And if they are doing such a thing, are they protecting their people or themselves? Conspiracy theorists constantly create alternative theories to what we are told to believe; some are completely outrageous, but for some theories, it is difficult to deny that there is possibly some amount of truth to them. As crazy as it might sound at first, many believe the government has covered up events ranging from the attack on 9/11 and the assassination of JFK, to the creation of LSD and HIV. Some theories are ridiculous and can be disproved in a heartbeat. Some theories are plausible and could possibly…

    The events that occurred on September 11, 2001 were also viewed as possible acts of conspiracy. The idea of a plane deviating from its course without action from any government agency in today’s modern technology is not possible. These planes were traveling at a rate of six hundred miles an hour. For them to hit their intended targets the government agencies were negligent.…

    On September 11, 2001 the United States experienced the most devastating attack on US soil since Pearl Harbor. This terrorist attack left people with several questions: Who would do this? and How could this happen? When the 9/11 commission report came out it revealed that there were intelligence failures on many levels, most importantly of which was a lack of or unwillingness of agencies to share intelligence. The Commission’s report noted, “information was not shared, sometimes inadvertently or because of legal misunderstandings” and “ Often the handoffs of information were lost across the divide separating the foreign and domestic agencies of the government” (9/11 Commission Report 2004, 353). For example the report highlights the case of Khalid al Mihdhar and Nawaf al Hazmi, two individuals that the NSA had identified and the CIA were tracking their movements…

    On September 11, 2001 America woke up expecting a normal day. What America did not expect was that this day was going to change history forever. On that day Islamic extremist high-jacked four U.S. airplanes with the intent of crashing them into the twin towers, the Pentagon and the White House. Two of the planes did indeed crash into the twin towers in New York City and another was used to hit the pentagon. The passengers on the last plane however, fought back, and it was landed before it could be used to hit the white house. “A decade later, what happened on Sept. 11 still resonates for much of the country. Even more Americans now say the horror of that day changed their lives.”1 These were the first attacks ever directed toward U.S. civilian population. These organized attacks lead to the need for an immediate change in the way the United States approached defending itself.…
