Does anyone believe that 9/11 was an inside job by our government?  Please provide evidence.?

The 9/11 Truth Movement will hopefully catch on, it would be nice to actually have a "resolved" situation rather than 50 years of speculation like the JFK assassination (another definitely inside job).\n\nUnfortunately, this movement is being hijacked by anti-semetic hate groups, xenophobes, tin-foil hat-wearers, and left-wing gun nuts.  It sucks that this would be allowed to happen and the real conspirators (the Bushies) are going to use extremism to get away with murdering fellow americans.\n\nA lot of people benefitted HUGE from the events of 9/11, and our mainstream media has done absolutely no real investigative journalism to bring this out.  Along with that though, our Constitutional rights have been completely stripped and suspended without a whisper from the mainstream press.  Nobody batted an eye when our rights to free press, redress, fair trials, habeus corpus, eminent domain protections were completely stripped.

It might be withholding some information on the grounds of national security of for legal reasons but in the main the events of that day are so well documented that it would be difficult to withold any of the salient facts.\n\nThere are conspiracy theories that 9/11 was orchestrated by the FBI and other US agencies but as with all conspiracy theories, they don't stand up to even the most basic of examinations and are based on ignorance not fact.

no, the "TERRORISTS" didn't...the terrorists that flew the planes were found alive later and the government kept it quiet.  Look at the tower bombing video...see the explosions in the basement?  If those towers fell from the planes, they would have went sideways, not straight down.  The company that cleaned it up wouldn't be a presidential demolition crew that knocks down buildings for a living...they were waiting right next to the damn things waiting for them to fall to go to work

Absolutely absurd. How could the US have helped 9/11? Why would  they? How would no one have come up with any credible evidence after all these years? What reason is there to think that it was not a well-planned attack, run by a large group of Arab terrorists? I think that is the story that fits the evidence.\n\nThey're not addressed in any plausible way. Vast conspiracies don't actually happen or work. Someone always finds out, and yet there's no evidence of this conspiracy.\n\nEdit: Jets did not intercept the planes because they are stationed hundreds of miles from where they were and were not alerted until shortly before the planes crashed. The FAA notified NORAD at 8:40 and planes were scrambled 6 minutes later, 153 miles from the World Trade Center and the first plane crashed at about that time. http://mckinneysucks.blogspot.com/2002_06_01_mckinneysucks_archive.html#77997492\n\nThe buildings fell quickly because they were crashed into by giant airliners. It seems like a building like that should be able to withstand more, but neither you, nor I, nor Ruppert, nor even the engineers who built the towers know what it is like for a plane to crash into a building. The commission report clearly states that the plane struck main support beams and started fires that raged at intense temperatures, further weakining the already weakened supports. Once that happens it doesn't take long for a building to collapse onto itself.\n\nAs for WTC7, the report is clear enough that fires were started on several floors by debris. People say it looks too controlled, but they failr to realize that buildings that tall are made to crumble down and not out. If a main beam buckles, there's no momentum to throw debris out - the force is all down.\n\nHow long it took to form a commission is a question I have myself, but that alone does not make a conspiracy.\n\nAs for explosions, see this: http://www.geocities.com/factsnotfantasy/ExplosivesDebunked.html

This is a sensitive subject because many lives were taken and many people just dont think that our govt would allow such thing.  In my OPINION, i believe that our govt planned this so that they can put fear in our minds.  there are lot of information people dont know because all they do is listen to whatever the media say. I read documentaries and everything about 911 and it gives me reasons to believe that it was a hoax.  For the building to collapse like how it did doesnt make any sense.  In order for the building to collapse that fast it needed to be imploded. The building would not have fallen that fast because it would have stopped at each floor and then slowly collapse.  the documentary i saw said how the pentagon wasnt hit by a plane but a bomb because most of the evidence was disintegrated.  no cockpit recorder or anything was found which makes me believe that govt was behind it because theyre the only ones that can let that happen.  I think it was a good hoax because most of americans believed that bush was the right person to lead our country even though theres evidence that bush is not the brightest president we had.  and why did we go to war in iraq? because of WMD? hell no there were no WMD instead were goin there so that we can get more oil and how better to do it then by attacking american soil so that we feel like we need to go to war.   Wow what a smart plan but too bad were paying too much for oil now. To me i think this is a concipiracy that no one is gonna know for sure.  Like were never gonna know who really killed jfk and were never gonna know what really happend to 911 because our govt isnt going to tell us. so heres my 2 pennies.

I am glad to see others are figuring out whats really going on, President Bush, his father George W Bush , and his father Purser Bush go way back before Kennedy was elected and assassinated, I have added a couple more links to check out one is the active petition to the senate to reopen the 911 investigations based on all the new evidence including the fact that not one of the hijackers names were on any of the flights passenger lists.\nThe reasons behind the attacks on America by are own Government was to scare the public on a large scale into believing we are under attack from Arab country's so there was reason to go to war when these plans have in fact been an agenda planned long ago to get the OIL and start a new world order which all the Bushes have been apart of since 1964 I am a mother of two grandmother of three and an American voter since 1978

No "Paul I", those people are not crazy.  In fact, they represent a growing consensus about what happened on 9/11.  They are  brave people who have enough courage to question our governments white wash of the attack.\n\nMost all the evidence that is available to us, show that the WTC buildings were rigged with explosives. Our own government had motive as was well as an opportunity to do this crime. Here is the evidence, presented for your scrutiny. \n\nFAKE CONFESSION\nThe official government story is that the 9/11 attack was orchestrated by Al Qaeda, which is lead by Osama bin Laden. The proof our government provided was a video with Osama confessing to the crime. The problem with the video is that the person in the video does not look like Osama bin Laden: See picture.\nhttp://911blimp.net/vid_fakeOsamaVideo.shtml\nhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pk519bkcLjg\n\n\nEVIDENCE\nThere are many other factors that do not fit the official story. They include, secondary explosions that were seen, heard, reported, and recorded by firefighters, in and around the WTC buildings.\nhttp://video.google.ca/videoplay?docid=-4574366633014832928&q=firefighter+bombs+in+the+building\nhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CcRs1fv8i3I\nhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rHz9YWVgJWM\n\n\nHere is a video clip showing a trail of explosions just before the destruction wave.\nhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j_DkzhonpGY&mode=related&search=\n\nMolten, beyond red hot, "steel" was video recorded coming out of the South Tower just before it collapsed. Jet fuel does not burn hot enough to turn steel to liquid.\nhttp://youtube.com/watch?v=ExrVgioIXvk&search=thermite\n\nA chemical analysis of the solidified molten iron,conducted by independent firms, yielded an explosive, called Thermite. Also found was a WTC core beam; most probably cut using the demolition cutting charge (Thermate). No core beams were left standing beyond a few feet high, for it to have been cut by an Iron Workers torch.

Listen to this retired general, He says, "The Plane does not fit the hole."\nhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K2VoUN-7RVU&eurl=\n\nMOTIVE\nThe New Conservatives (Neo-Cons), with the help of their friends, started planning the invasion of Iraq, shortly after Pres. Bush took office. Apparently, the plan would include the attack of the WTC buildings. It did this to get the support of congress and the nation, to attack Iraq. Read it from their own PENAC document. Pay special attention to the section entitled "Creating Tomorrow's Dominant Force" page 50 and the top of page 51, where it states we need a new Pearl Harbor attack to get the ball rolling.\nhttp://www.newamericancentury.org/RebuildingAmericasDefenses.pdf\n\nOPPORTUNITY\nWitnesses saw a work crew going into the WTC buildings with rolls of wire, supposedly for internet upgrades. Tenants were moved around while crews "upgraded" the cable systems. The Port Authority cut power to the building for a whole weekend, just prior to the attack; shutting down the entire security systems. Witnesses also heard crews operating heavy hammering equipment that left a gray cement like dust, in the building. This activity took place just weeks before the 911 attack: The Port Authority had released control of the buildings to Larry Silverstein, six weeks prior to the attack: He made upwards of $5 billion off of the attack.\nSee "9/11 Mysteries" video: Time = 1:03:55 through 1:07:00 and 1:19:55 through 1:24:09\nhttp://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-6708190071483512003&q=911+mysteries&hl=en-CA

I have not seen this but i can only imagine the theory behind 9/11.  I know that it was not by accident that the twin towers came a tumblin down...but i also know that it would never have happened if the gov't wasn't in on it. It is just to tragic and too big of a game for it to happen on American soil.

Yes, like many other false-flag operations, 9-11 was an inside job planned and executed by elements of the "Anglo-American" (Zionist) shadow government.  Essentially, the purpose of the attack was to prop up the unstable currencies of private central banks, such as the Federal Reserve and Bank of England and European Central Bank, which issue money backed by their ability to bribe and blackmail governments to maintain a big and scary military-industrial complex that steals oil and natural gas for private profit.

TITO, do some research man, the kid from "Loose Change" just touched on a few points.  There's many more he left out, here are my favorite "coincidences" of 9/11:\n\n1) The recently fired FBI head of Counter-Terrorism was killed that day...2 days into his new job as head of security of the WTC.\n\n2) Each flight contained exactly 1 full-time employee of Raytheon Corp, who brought us the highly successful Predator un-manned drone as well as lots of "guided missile" technology.\n\n3) One of the flights also contained a former elite Israeli commando on the manifest, 2 years after his last active duty stint, who was by all accounts still in good shape.  How some jackass with a box-cutter took him out, I just can't see it.\n\nTo the asker, congratulations on taking the blue pill and welcome to the club, hopefully when we get an opposition party with some testicular fortitude in power, the PNAC turkeys will get their very own group trial for treason and mass murder.\n\nI propose that, instead of the death penalty, we export them to some 3rd-world torture expert country and make sure we know everything.  I'm a big fan of poetic justice...

sure 911truth and the "loose change" film both say that.  i'd like to see a more thorough and objective investigation of these claims, however. and such an investigation must not be hindered by balking attacks. is it me, or is it that any body who raises some kind of question or proposes there was an alternative explanation to 9-11, is thrown to the wolves for being a tin-hat wearing conspiracy theorist?  why can't we be more like factcheck about this? it is not helpful to be dismissive NOR is it helpful to carelessly throw unfounded paranoid ideas into these discussions. how about we investigate 9-11 using the scientific method? what a concept

If you have any doubt about what happened, watch this video:\nhttp://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-5137581991288263801\nIt's called "Loose Change" and uses FACTS to prove the Bush government was behind or at least supported the 9/11 attacks.

How about you do some more research, and then tell us what YOU think.  A little common sense will get you thinking the right way.  Good luck.\n\nhttp://www.abovetopsecret.com/pages/911_pentagon_757_plane_evidence.html\nhttp://www.ccdominoes.com/lc/LooseChangeGuide.html\nhttp://www.theregister.co.uk/2006/06/05/911_documentary_removed/\nhttp://wtc.nist.gov/\nhttp://www.popularmechanics.com/science/defense/1227842.html\nhttp://911myths.com/

The official story regarding the plane that crashed into the Pentagon is that it was totally consumed by burning fuel and left no wreckage. One of the many things that happened 9/11/2001 that had never happened before or since. What really mystifies me though is how many dismiss the notion that their was some government involvement in what transpired on 9/11 without even considering an alternative scenario other than the one the government has given.

The Destruction of the World Trade Center:\nWhy the Official Account Cannot Be True\nDavid Ray Griffin\nAuthorized Version (with references & notes)\n\n \n\n \n\nIn The New Pearl Harbor: Disturbing Questions about the Bush Administration and 9/11 (2004), I summarized dozens of facts and reports that cast doubt on the official story about 9/11. Then in The 9/11 Commission Report: Omissions and Distortions (2005a), I discussed the way these various facts and reports were treated by the 9/11 Commission, namely, by distorting or simply omitting them. I have also taken this big-picture approach, with its cumulative argument, in my previous essays and lectures on 9/11 (Griffin, 2005b and 2005d).[1] This approach, which shows every aspect of the official story to be problematic, provides the most effective challenge to the official story.\n\n     But this way of presenting the evidence has one great limitation, especially when used in lectures and essays: It means that the treatment of every particular issue must be quite brief, hence superficial. People can thereby be led to suspect that a more thorough treatment of any particular issue might show the official story to be plausible after all.\n\n     In the present essay, I focus on one question: why the Twin Towers and building 7 of the World Trade Center collapsed. One advantage of this focus, besides the fact that it allows us to go into considerable detail, is that the destruction of the World Trade Center provides one of the best windows into the truth about 9/11. Another advantage of this focus is that it will allow us to look at revelations contained in the 9/11 oral histories, which were recorded by the New York Fire Department shortly after 9/11 but released to the public only in August of 2005.\n\nI will begin with the question of why the Twin Towers collapsed, then raise the same question about building 7.\n\n \n\n \n\n1. The Collapse of the Twin Towers\n\n \n\nShortly after 9/11, President Bush advised people not to tolerate “outrageous conspiracy theories about the attacks of 11 September” (Bush, 2001).[2] Philip Zelikow, who directed the work of the 9/11 Commission, has likewise warned against “outrageous conspiracy theories” (Hansen, 2005). What do these men mean by this expression? They cannot mean that we should reject all conspiracy theories about 9/11, because the government’s own account is a conspiracy theory, with the conspirators all being members of al-Qaeda. They mean only that we should reject outrageous theories.\n\nBut what distinguishes an outrageous theory from a non-outrageous one? This is one of the central questions in the philosophy of science. When confronted by rival theories---let’s say Neo-Darwinian Evolution and Intelligent Design---scientists and philosophers of science ask which theory is better and why. The mark of a good theory is that it can explain, in a coherent way, all or at least most of the relevant facts and is not contradicted by any of them. A bad theory is one that is contradicted by some of the relevant facts. An outrageous theory would be one that is contradicted by virtually all the relevant facts.\n\n     With this definition in mind, let us look at the official theory about the Twin Towers, which says that they collapsed because of the combined effect of the impact of the airplanes and the resulting fires. The report put out by FEMA said: “The structural damage sustained by each tower from the impact, combined with the ensuing fires, resulted in the total collapse of each building” (FEMA, 2002).[3] This theory clearly belongs in the category of outrageous theories, because is it is contradicted by virtually all the relevant facts. Although this statement may seem extreme, I will explain why it is not.\n\n \n\nNo Prior Collapse Induced by Fire\n\nThe official theory is rendered implausible by two major problems. The first is the simple fact that fire has never---prior to or after 9/11---caused steel-frame high
