The Twin Towers (official name World Trade Center) - along with the passengers and crews of the two hijacked jets that were used in the attack - were destroyed on Sept. 11, 2001 by terrorists from the extremist Islamist group al Qaeda, the core element of which was run by Osama bin Laden (before he was killed by U.S. Special Forces soldiers in May of 2011.)
Simultaneously, al Qaeda terrorists also attacked the U.S. Pentagon building with another hijacked jet, killing the passengers and crew along with many military and civilian employees at the Pentagon. The terrorists also hijacked a fourth jet which was headed towards Washington, D.C. before passengers fought back, with the jet crashing in rural Pennsylvania, resulting in the deaths of all passengers and crew.
Al Qaeda attacked and destroyed the Twin Towers because they (falsely) believe that the West (i.e., the U.S. and Europe) are the aggressors in a (non-existent) war upon the people and Islamic nations of the Middle East. To them, the Twin Towers, which were home to many U.S.-based and foreign-based financial institutions, as well as numerous other corporations, symbolized the U.S., our economy, and our capitalist system. Likewise, they view the Pentagon as symbolizing the U.S. military.

There were three states- New York (twin towers), Virginia (Pentagon), and Pennsylvania (where Flight 93 crashed).
Who sent the planes to crash into the twin towers?
Terrorists and the organization Al Qaeda planned for this to happen.
What are thoughts of September 11?
There is absolutely no doubt in my mind at all that 9-11 was a "Red Flag Maneuver" deployed by the American/World Elite in order to:
-Introduce the fear of "terrorism" in order to: increase military budget, to give the Government justification to create new laws that are used to make the elite richer and suppress our rights so they can protect us from imaginary terrorists.
-Get the people rallied up so they can justify going to war for oil and lie about the weapons of mass destruction
It astounds and sickens me ceaselessly
How did the plane in 911 lose control?
The planes did not lose control, but were hijacked, and intentionally crashed.
The September 11, 2001 attacks on the United States was planned, orchestrated, and carried out by terrorists who were affiliated with Al-Qaeda, the extremist Sunni Islamist militant group founded by, now deceased, Osama bin Laden. The Al-Qaeda terrorists were the ones who hijacked four planes, and caused them to crash. The first plane was intentionally flown into the North Tower of the World Trade Center in New York. Initially, reporters, authorities, and the viewing public thought this was possibly an accident. When the second plane flew directly into the South Tower, it was clear that this was an intentional terrorist attack. The third plane was crashed into the U.S. Pentagon building causing severe damage. By this time, the passengers of the fourth hijacked plane were able to make cell phone calls, and learned the fate of the other three planes, so they heroically charged the terrorists which resulted in the plane crashing in a field outside of Shanksville, Pennsylvania.
How many people were killed on the fourth plane and where did they crash?
All 44 people on board United Airlines Flight 93 died when the plane crashed near Shanksville, Pennsylvania. It is possible that one or more of the flight crew were killed by the hijackers before the crash.
Was a 747 one of the planes involved in 911 attack?
No. The planes that crashed into the twin towers were 767s, and the plane that crashed into the Pentagon and the one that crashed in Pennsylvania were both 757s.
