What day of the week did the twin towers get attacked?
The tragedy of Sept. 11, 2000 occurred on a MONDAY morning!

It took 102 Minutes for the North Tower to Collapse.
How many disabled people died in the September 11Th attacks?
{i dont think any disabled people died}
Whoever provided this answer is just a complete moron. I am unsure of the numbers since you can find absolutely nothing online. I am very positive that most of the people with disabilities perished in the attacks.
People in wheelchairs were told to go to the 131st floor since this is how far the ladders would reach. They could not run down the stairs with everyone else, obviously, and they could not take the elevators. Some of the people running down the stairs would stop and grab someone out of their chairs leaving behind everyone else.
It's very odd that it is so impossible to find information about this.
Did planes really hit the twin towers?
No, the United States World Trade Center was struck by two separate commercial airliners.
How many terrorists were there on board of the planes?
19 terrorists boarded 3 different passenger planes and hijacked them. All 3 planes crashed in about a 20-30min interval.
The last plane missed, we will never know why, but we have a guess: The passengers steered the plane off course to save lives or the terrorists just missed their mark.

Who led the attack on the twin towers?
Contrary to myth, rumor, and conspiracy theory, all evidence points to Osama Bin Laden and his supporters, most of whom came from Saudi Arabia. There are some folks who continue to say it was an "inside job" (these people are called "9/11 Truthers"), but it's highly doubtful the Bush Administration planned it, and I say that as someone who was not a fan of that administration. Looking at the available facts, including materials we now have from the raid on Bin Laden's hiding place, it's very clear that this was an attack that was organized and carried out under the direction of Bin Laden and Al-Qaeda. The goal was to bring down the symbol of American business & capitalism (the Twin Towers, Wall Street) and to destroy the symbol of American governance (the White House). While doing considerable damage (and, more importantly, taking nearly three thousand innocent lives), the attacks did not destroy America as Bin Laden had hoped.
How many people jumped out of the twin towers?
According to a counting by USA TODAY-over 200 people died by jumping -some alone, some in pairs and others actually in groups. Firefighters found over 50 on the Marriot Hotel alone.The first rescue fireman was killed by a jumper.
What did 911 have to do with the iraq war?

Why did the events of September 11th occur?
The attacks were carried out by a terrorist group known as the Al-Qaeda. The Al-Qaeda is partially led by a man named Osama bin Laden. There were many reasons for the attack, but very basically, they link back to 1998 when Osama bin Laden declared a "holy war" on the United States. Also, one of the main men involved in the planning was Khalid Sheikh Mohammed. He felt very strongly against the United States foreign policies backing Israel.
How was Iraq involved in the 911 attack?
The terrorists who caused 9/11 had nothing at all to do with the Iraqi Regime and the basis for entering the Iraq War was to find weapons of mass destruction. However, Bush's administration tried to tie Saddam Hussein to the 9/11 attacks even though there was no link.

Where did the planes that hit the twin tower come from?
They were hijacked and controlled as weapons to fly into the Towers, It was all a terrorism attack
Incorrect. There are two points of view. One is mainstream media, and the other is the word of the people through youtube and alternative media. One must be selective and not believe everything, but use it all as a way to firmly connect dots.
The correct answer is the mainstream media says that terrorists hijacked the planes and subculture media says that it was a Masonic Ritual of Sacrifice. Look this up on youtube and see for yourself before you grin there.
How long did it take for the first tower of the twin towers to fall?
The South Tower collapsed 56 minutes after being hit, and the North Tower 102 minutes after being hit. Once the buildings began to fall, each took less than 30 seconds to fully collapse. The South Tower, though hit second, collapsed first.
Parts of the South Tower reached the ground about 9 seconds after its collapse began at 9:59 AM EDT, approximately 56 minutes after being hit. The central core of the lower 40 floors caved in within 25 seconds thereafter. Debris flattened or filled the seven basement levels within a few seconds.
The TV mast and roof from the North Tower struck the ground about 11 seconds after the descent began, at 10:28 AM EDT, 102 minutes after being hit. The central core of the lower 60 floors completely collapsed within 10 to 15 seconds after being bypassed by the falling upper floors.
Most of the interior collapse was hidden by dust and debris, which also spread over the surrounding buildings and streets.
What led to the twin towers attack?
The Project for a New American Century clearly calls for a modern Pearl Harbor to act as the Catalyst for the increased defense spending, and deterioration of civil liberties that resulted from the attacks. Ultimately though it is the fear that comes from possessing things, you do not want to lose. It is attachment. Mostly just people that really want to keep their jobs in Washington D.C. Instead of just doing their jobs, they create a gigantic ordeal on so many levels, you can hardly believe it's not fiction, and that of course is their method. The BIG lie.
