9/11 : a conspiracy
By The Pakistani Spectator • Sep 11th, 2007 • Category: Uncategorized • 20 Comments •on 11th September 2001, a jet passenger plane hit the twin towers (World Trade Centre) in America, after some moments another plane did the same from a different angle. And the game continue with a plane hit a portion of Pantagon. But this time the plane was not a passenger aircraft.
The turmoil the American people went through cannot be narrated in simple words. But the security report does not reveal any thing properly. It is also reported then that jews working in World Trade Center were not present on that day. Here we also keep in mind that the US economy is totally in the control of Jews and therefore, policies to control the worlds resources are prepared and implemented. The implementation is done by hook or by crook.
The post 9/11 era went difficult for many countries especially Muslim countries including Pakistan. It looks like that this was a planned activity to have better control over resources with the Muslim countries. The finances for such nefarious designs (Hiring or Purchasing key personnel with in the nations to be utilized against that nation) are being produced by Para citing the economies of different oil and other natural resources rich lands.
And therefore, the maps of the globes are planned to be changed to create and enforce different factions, nations, groups etc in larger interests of that designs. Pakistan is suffering from the actions of NATO in Afghanistan. The security issue has risen to a level, which cannot be witnessed before. If we take this as a precedent then peace of the globe is endangered. Who is responsible for that this need to be neutrally identified and to be testified. Who will do it?

everyone knows that ..its just nothing can be done about it…
I’m frankly sad to read this, here, on a site I’ve enjoyed writing for. I’ll try to respond as unemotionally as I can, though. Big events do tend to attract conspiracy theories, and 9/11 is surely no exception. There are bound to be thousands of observations, or pure fabrications, that are hard to explain away after such events. If we selectively pick and choose between these, we can seem to “prove” almost anything. The thing to ask, however, is whether the conspiracy hypothesis explains more mysteries than it creates, and the hypothesis that the government planned 9/11 doesn’t even come close to passing this test, not by a mile!
Consider:
-The US government is terrible at keeping a secret! The Nixon administration couldn’t keep the facts behind the Watergate scandal a secret, with only a handful of people involved, and no one getting physically hurt. The current presidency has had lots of embarrassing secrets revealed. I’m not talking here about a few rumours leaking out - I’m talking about published, thoroughly-well-documented stories in all the papers, and hearings in Congress by highly-motivated members of the opposition party who will happily help remove any doubt that something improper was done, and will use this to take power from the current leading party. If this secret involved some sort of conspiracy that didn’t even have government help, the chances of it avoiding being revealed are even poorer.
-The hypothetical secret of the US government (or any other group other than al Qaeda, which has repeatedly publicly praised the attacks) sponsoring the 9/11 attacks (and individually warning hundreds of Jewish Trade-Center workers!?) would be huge, requiring coordinated action and perfect secrecy from large numbers of people. Any of those people would be likely to feel remorse before or after the attack, and would likely have the means to act on that remorse by releasing real proof of the conspiracy, with extremely heavy consequences to the conspirators!
-Consider the proposed profile of the hypothetical conspirator (not bin Laden), at the top of the conspiracy: He (or she) is rich, and powerful, enjoying a fine, easy life in the United States. He (or she) somehow gets some crazy, insane idea that the events of 9/11 will somehow help the United States, or Israel, or whatever, although those events, and the mishandled government responses to those events, have actually done lasting, grave harm to the US economy and world power, and have done Israel no good, either. Having come to this completely insane conclusion, our hypothetical conspirator then must find dozens, perhaps hundreds, of additional more-or-less rich, powerful, happy people who agree with this insane idea, and who are willing to kill thousands of innocent men, women, and children, to carry it out, knowing that in doing so, they personally risk themselves losing everything they have, including their lives, if their secret is revealed and proven. Then, somehow, these utterly ruthless individuals decide to reveal their secret to hundreds of strangers, Jewish workers at the Trade Center, because they are such nice guys that they wouldn’t want them to get hurt! Then, afterwards, none of those people involved, including those ordinary men and women who were warned just before the attack, will have a sufficient guilt attack to spill the secret to, say, a news organization capable of gathering real proof, nor will they reveal their secret in a drinking binge during which they try to drown their remorse. This is simply ludicrous!
I’m an American, with many Jewish friends, and years of experience watching our government and other groups of Americans fail to keep secrets, and watching the way powerful people use their power in the US, and I can tell you, and hope you believe me, that this hypothesis simply makes no sense at all! The hypothetical conspirator would have to be simultaneously brilliant (to succeed, and keep it secret), and idiotic (to think this helped his cause, and that he was likely to avoid punishment), selfish (to kill so many for such a reason), and unselfish (to risk his own personal life, wealth, and power), ruthless (to kill so many innocents) and merciful (to save those workers who supposedly were warned), and he’d have to find dozens or hundreds of other brilliant-and-idiotic, selfish-and-unselfish, ruthless-and-merciful people to work with, without any one of those people turning out to have the good sense, or carelessness, or conscience, to spill the secret! It makes no sense at all!
-US law-enforcement agencies do have one secret: Their secret is that they don’t solve nearly so many crimes as they might like us to think. Instead, it is the criminals who solve the crimes for the police, because even common criminals, in tiny groups, with everything to lose, are terrible at keeping secrets, and they themselves reveal their own guilt. Think how much harder would it be for a massive conspiracy!
-Consider the documentary Farenheit 9/11, made by Michael Moore, who positively hates Gearge W. Bush. In it, Mr. Moore shows film of Mr. Bush right after he has been informed of the 9/11 attack, while he is visiting a school, and Bush’s reaction was, to put it mildly, not one of American Leadership’s prouder moments - he basically just sat there doing nothing for several minutes! OK, maybe many fine leaders would take a while to “get in gear” after such shocking news, but think: If anyone remotely connected with the Bush presidency actually knew what was coming, even if Bush himself didn’t, don’t you think they would have coached him in advance to look just a little more like a real leader in such an event, or at the very least, they could have arranged to have the camera turned off?!
There are many good cases to be made that the American government, as lead by George W. Bush, has abused and misused power in response to 9/11, but to imagine that powerful forces in the US actually planned 9/11 makes no sense at all!
Dan Tow: Please understand, we in Pakistan basically dont trust our leader. Its a fact that our policies are made in Pentagon.
There is a firm beleif here that US is superhuman kind of thing. They are capable of doing everything.
and that is why people think that US is also capable of doing such act.
People her are of the view that in the exchange of just one tall building, US has taken two countries full with OIL and other strategic edges.
Dan, not all the people in Pakistan really register to this belief that US himself hatched this and yes you have got a point there that how could hundreds of jews could be controlled so successfully so long.
Keeping secrets and keeping promises are not a characteristics of US administration and jews for that matter.
The question is why didnt a tragedy like 9/11 happened again in US in all these years?
By the way I dont want it and I totally condemn what happend on 9/11. It was a crime against humanity, as War in Iraq and Afghanistan is war against mankind.
Farid said
It looks like that this was a planned activity to have better control over resources with the Muslim countries.
I dont agree that 9/11 was planned, but yes US exploited the 9/11 and then yes, they are cashing in on it since then.

Everyone remembers the Twin Towers exploding at 9:59AM and 10:28AM EDT on September 11, 2001. Comparatively few people can recall that there was a third massive skyscraper, also a part of the World Trade Center, which fell very rapidly to the ground on that day. This was World Trade Center Building 7.1
One reason that few remember WTC Building 7’s collapse is that after September 11th it has been treated, both in the media and in The 9/11 Commission Report, as if it didn’t happen.
“The total collapse of the third huge skyscraper late in the afternoon September 11th was reported as if it were an insignificant footnote… most people never saw video of Building 7’s collapse… Incredibly, it is virtually impossible to find any mention of Building 7 in newspapers, magazines, or broadcast media reports after September 11th.” 2
“The Commission avoids another embarrassing problem – explaining how WTC 7 could have collapsed, also virtually at free-fall speed – by simply not mentioning the collapse of this building.” 3
The collapse of Building 7 at 5:20PM EDT was in itself a major event; the sudden and unexplained fall to earth of a 47-story steel-framed skyscraper is certainly news. Why has there been almost no mention of this in the U.S. media, and why was there no mention of Building 7’s collapse in The 9/11 Commission Report? These are questions of great significance, and they cry out for answers. To be able to approach any kind of explanation, however, first some pertinent and verified facts of the Building 7 aspect of 9/11 need to be scrutinized.
The following eleven facts have been compiled from the research of reputable sources – those who have dared to question and have devoted innumerable hours into discovering what really happened on 9/11.
FACT 1: WTC Building 7 was one of the largest buildings in downtown Manhattan. It was 47 stories tall, about half the height of the Towers, and took up an entire city block. It was 300 feet from the closest Twin Tower (the North Tower, WTC 1), and was a steel-framed, concrete structure.4
FACT 2: WTC Building 7 – on its 23rd floor – housed an Emergency Command Center for the City of New York that Mayor Rudolph Giuliani had built in the mid-1990’s. On the morning of September 11th, Mayor Giuliani did not go “to his Command Center – with its clear view of the Twin Towers – but to a makeshift, street-level headquarters at 75 Barkley Street.” WTC 7 also held the offices of numerous government agencies, including the Department of Defense, the CIA, the Secret Service, the IRS, and the Security and Exchange Commission.5 Late 2001 was the time of “the height of the investigation into Enron, so the majority of Enron’s SEC filings were likely destroyed when World Trade Center 7 came down.”6
FACT 3: WTC Building 7 was not hit by airplane or significant debris on September 11th. It had been evacuated after the planes hit the towers. By the afternoon of September 11th, there were a few small fires of unknown origin evident in the building, and these small fires could be seen in only a few of the hundreds and hundreds of windows in the building.7
FACT 4: On September 11, 2001, at 5:20PM, EDT, World Trade Center Building 7 suddenly and rapidly collapsed. Beginning with the penthouse, all 47 stories of it imploded into its own footprint in less than seven seconds. Three different videos of Building 7’s vertical collapse – two from CBS video broadcasts, and one from an NBC news camera – can be seen online at http://wtc7.net/videos.html.
FACT 5: On September 16th, NASA flew an airplane over the World Trade Center site, recorded infrared radiation coming from the ground, and created a thermal map. The U.S. Geological Survey analyzed this data, and determined the actual temperature of the rubble. This map shows that five days after the collapse of Building 7, the surface temperature of a section of its rubble was 1,341º F.8 This high a temperature is indicative of the use of explosives.
“WTC 7’s rubble pile continued to smolder for months.”9
FACT 6: Fire Engineering magazine is the 125-year-old paper-of-record of the fire engineering community. Bill Manning, editor-in-chief, wrote an Editor’s Opinion in the January, 2002 edition. His editorial, $elling Out the Investigation, pointed out that destruction of evidence – the hurried removal of rubble which should be examined by investigators – is illegal. He also issued a “call to action”. To quote excerpts:
“For more than three months, structural steel from the World Trade Center has been and continues to be cut up and sold for scrap. Crucial evidence that could answer many questions … is on the slow boat to China …”
“I have combed through our national standard for fire investigation, NFPA 921, but nowhere in it does one find an exemption allowing the destruction of evidence for buildings over 10 stories tall.”
“Fire Engineering has good reason to believe that the ‘official investigation’ blessed by FEMA [Federal Emergency Management Agency] and run by the American Society of Civil Engineers is a half baked farce [emphasis mine] that may have already been commandeered by political forces whose primary interests, to put it mildly, lie far afield of full disclosure. Except for the marginal benefit obtained from a three-day, visual walk-through of evidence sites conducted by ASCE investigation committee members – described by one close source as a ‘tourist trip’ – no one’s checking evidence for anything.”
“The destruction and removal of evidence must stop immediately.”
“Firefighters, this is your call to action. …contact your representatives in Congress and officials in Washington and help us correct this problem immediately.” 10 11
FACT 7: In May of 2002, FEMA published their report #403 titled World Trade Center Building Performance Study. This report claims that the fires caused the building to collapse, but that the specifics of how this is supposed to have occurred “…remain unknown at this time.”12
FACT 8: The collapse of WTC Building 7 shows five characteristics of a controlled demolition:
It “dropped directly into its own footprint in a smooth, vertical motion”;
It “collapsed completely in less than seven seconds”;
“Dust streamed out of the upper floors of Building 7 early in its collapse”;
“WTC 7’s roof inverted toward its middle as the collapse progressed”; and
“WTC 7’s rubble was mostly confined to the block on which the building stood.”13
FACT 9: “Larry Silverstein is a rather large player within the realms of 21st Century real estate, finance, and politics.”14 He “…had taken out a long lease on the World Trade Center only six weeks before 9/11. In a PBS documentary entitled ‘America Rebuilds’, originally aired in September of 2002, Silverstein made the following statement about Building 7:
‘I remember getting a call from the, er, fire department commander, telling me that they were not sure they were gonna be able to contain the fire, and I said, “We’ve had such terrible loss of life, maybe the smartest thing to do is pull it.” And they made that decision to pull, and we watched the building collapse.’” 15 16
FACT 10: “It is inconceivable that anyone could be running around placing explosives in exactly the right places all within seven hours. In fact, implosions take a minimum of two weeks and up to two months to plan and place the charges. The fire department of New York does not even train their personnel to do controlled demolition. They are done by highly skilled experienced specialists who plan and test far ahead.”17
FACT 11: “… [George W.] Bush’s brother, Marvin Bush, and his cousin, Wirt Walker III, were principles in the company [Stratesec, formerly named Securacom] that was in charge of security for the World Trade Center, with Walker being the CEO from 1999 until January 2002.”18
In summation: A major aspect of 9/11 has been excluded from the entire U.S. media after September 11th, and was also omitted from The 9/11 Commission Report. This was the sudden fall to earth, on September 11th, 2001, of World Trade Center Building 7. Not hit by airplane or significant debris, 300 feet from the closest Twin Tower, and with just a few small fires burning within it, at 5:20PM EDT this massive concrete and steel-framed 47-story skyscraper imploded into its own footprint in less than seven seconds. Its rapid implosion had all of the characteristics of a controlled demolition, and the World Trade Center leaseholder, Larry Silverstein, stated in so many words that the building had been collapsed by demolition. It takes weeks, if not months, to prepare the demolition of a building as large as WTC 7; this implosion could not have been engineered and implemented in seven chaotic hours on September 11th. Therefore, a question emerges:
Who had the means and expertise to engineer such a demolition and acquire needed materiel, and who had access to WTC Building 7 PRIOR TO September 11, 2001 in order to place the explosives?
An inquiry into the answer to this question might be a good place to begin a search for the real perpetrators of 9/11. Do we, the citizens of the United States, have the courage and honesty necessary to initiate an actual investigation, or will we continue living a Lie – and reap the consequences?

9/11 was one of the most pivotal events in world history. Its impact will be felt for years to come. You owe it to yourself to go beyond the sound bites and the simplified official story. This is an extremely complicated story with numerous players and motives. The 9/11 timeline facts don’t all make sense or fit neatly together. It’s a story full of espionage, deceit, and lies. But if there are forces out there tricking us, they can only succeed if we, the general public, remain ignorant and passive.
The poll, conducted from Friday, May 12 through Tuesday, May 16, shows, according to 911truth.org, that:
42% of Americans believe there has indeed been a cover up,
45% think “Congress or an International Tribunal should re-investigate the attacks, including whether any US government officials consciously allowed or helped facilitate their success”
Janice Matthews, executive director of 911truth.org said that there was “mounting evidence for U.S. government involvement in 9/11.”
A shocking new book by the 9/11 Commission co-chairmen Thomas Kean and Lee Hamilton says we still don’t know the whole truth about 9/11. The book outlines repeated misstatements by the Pentagon and the FAA. Untrue—the military’s original timeline of United Flight 93. Equally untrue, the government’s timeline for American Flight 77 and details about fighter jets scrambled to intercept it. CNN News anchor Lou Dobbs: “The fact that the government would permit deception … and perpetuate the lie suggests that we need a full investigation of what is going on.”
Would anybody here talk about inter-faith harmony?

Your last lines of last comments are made up of gold, Dear Dan. I am so positive about the future of US-Pak relationship.
I have been visiting TPS for some months, and have found that Pakistanis are much warmer, soft, friendly, non-violent, then they are portrayed here in US.
I think conspiracy theorists should be pushed into dead sea or into Russia.
God Bless You Dan.
I see you hav just removed the comments for some reason, but I would say they should be there to discourage the ones who just want confrontation.
Ah, well, as you can see from other comments, the US has its own community of conspiracy theorists, who will happily pick and choose facts and fabrications to make a case.
Remember, just because someone says something on the internet doesn’t make it a fact! Just because some facts are non-trivial to explain, out of tens of thousands of facts following a complex event, doesn’t mean the only explanation is a massive conspiracy!
Let’s take the commented-upon fall of building 7 as a simple example, with a little insight from my old engineering training: There was a fire in building 7. We don’t know the intensity of that fire in the region of critical structural supports. When critical structural supports fail, the weight above them crashes down on everything below with enormous downward momentum, which results in a very sudden load on the supports below that vastly exceeds what they were designed to handle, so the initial small collapse triggers a very rapid chain reaction of further collapses all down the building, resulting in precisely the pattern of collapse seen in both the towers *and* in building 7. OK, that’s one explanation, and it isn’t far-fetched. Hundreds of highly trained civil engineers across the *world*, with no stake in any conspiracy, find nothing especially mysterious in the trade-center building collapses.
As for the “mysterious” high heat, supposedly from explosives, seen at building 7 *five days* after the collapse: the heat from an explosion very rapidly dissipates - whatever high heat was seen in the rubble on September 16th was from intense fires still burning *then*, on the 16th!
Another explanation is that literally thousands of investigators, who had nothing personally to gain by participating in a cover-up of a conspiracy, who couldn’t care less whether the US had a new excuse to invade Iraq, *all* abandoned their integrity, and *all* risked their careers, to help cover up someone else’s insane conspiracy! That’s an explanation?
Let’s say that the collapse of building 7 really is more mysterious than I think, just for sake of argument. Very well, then, how does a conspiracy help explain this supposed mystery? Why would conspirators risk complicating an already enormously complicated, already enormously risky conspiracy just to destroy a third Trade-Center building?! It makes *no sense*! Few Americans even realized there were more buildings in the Trade Center than the famous two towers, so how is blowing up some unknown third building going to strengthen the case for war that already exists after the total destruction of the famous two towers?! Even if I had *conclusive proof* of a crazy conspiracy, I’d find it next-to-impossible to believe that they would have been *stupid* enough to waste an ounce of effort and risk on the destruction of building 7! The real reason why there was so little mention of building 7 in the aftermath, both in the press and in the investigations, was that no one really *cared*! The building was little-known, and no one apparently died in its collapse, so it was insignificant (except to fire investigators who were commendably interested in learning how to make future buildings safer!) compared to the enormous consequences of the other events of that day! Therefore, even a mountain of mystery around building 7 wouldn’t tend to point to a conspiracy as any kind of explanation!
Now, here is a prediction, based on my understanding of American conspiracy theorists: Having perhaps unfortunately brought them to this site in the first place with my initial comments, my response will unfortunately bring still more comments, with lots of counter-arguments to my arguments, and lots of new mysterious “facts” that are non-trivial to explain away, and that supposedly *are* explained by a vast, evil conspiracy. Unfortunately, I don’t have time to make a career of going back-and-forth on this for the next several weeks, so this will likely be my last comment on this article. I leave you with the general advice, however:
Just because they say it is a fact, doesn’t mean it is anything more than something someone somewhere *made up* and posted on the internet, something that then got quoted all over the place until it looked very real.
Just because some real fact seems mysterious, doesn’t mean it really is mysterious - a detailed understanding of engineering, for example, can explain a building rapidly collapsing on its own footprint following a fairly ordinary fire.
Even a real fact that really is mysterious is not necessarily explained by a vast, crazy conspiracy - such an “explanation” likely is *far* more far-fetched than the mystery it supposedly “explains”!
Here’s a nice rule of thumb in thinking about hypothetical vast, American conspiracies:
The vast majority of Americans (like me) have little in the way of intense ideological motivation behind their actions. We conduct our lives mostly in our own personal best interests, which are consistent with making an honest living in whatever job we have. We’re already pretty happy with our lives, and we are not insane enough to risk all that happiness, and even our own lives, for some crazy, evil, impersonal goal like participating in an evil conspiracy to kill thousands of innocent people to generate an excuse (and remember, Bush really didn’t *need* an excuse - he could have found a dozen excuses without anything like 9/11!) to invade Iraq! We also are well aware of our own terrible record at keeping secrets, so even the crazier Americans would have no hope at all of finding a bunch of powerful, well-connected co-conspirators to carry out such a scheme, and of keeping such a scheme secret!
America is rich, and powerful, but Americans are not tightly-organized, and not subtle or successfully secretive, at all! What you see, in the American press, is really pretty close to the truth - a society of well-off people *individually* working mostly in their *own* *personal* interests, not risking everything for vast, external, ideological conspiracies that would do them little personal good! When Americans organize to do something big, we organize *publicly*, with speeches, arguments, public dissent, and lots of comment in the press. This is good (when we avoid doing crazy, evil things) and bad (when we don’t usually sacrifice vastly or take huge risks to help others), but it doesn’t lead to vast, successful, secret conspiracies.
A brief note on my deleted comment: I just wanted to edit it a bit to add more thoughts - the last comment is just the edited version of the first comment!
Dan Tow
I thank you for your time to this article, actually this was not to disturb our American brothers. But infact I was of the view that Muslims may not be involved in 9/11. The finding of this dilemma should be made public rather than doing pre-emtive strikes on lies like WMD, etc
Muhammad Farid Masood,
Thank you for your comment. I fully agree that Muslims were not behind 9/11! The evil, mass-murdering fanatics of 9/11 gave up all right to be called Muslim,… or Christian, or Jewish, or Hindu, or Buddhist, or Shinto, or humanist-atheist. No uncorrupted world tradition of religion or eithics would sanction their acts, or claim them as brothers. They were, however, members of al Qaeda, who call themselves Muslim, in an unforgivable insult to Islam. All evidence points to al Qaeda. Things are not always as they seem, but they are precisely as they seem, sometimes! Osama bin Laden and the rest of al Qaeda heap nothing but praise on the 9/11 attack and the attackers, making no credible attempt to deny their connection to the attacks. The connection is clear enough, and there are no mysteries that are most easily explained by assuming some sort of bizarre, organized, preplanned 9/11 conspiracy between al Qaeda and non-al-Qaeda forces in the US.
This does not mean, however, that 9/11 even remotely justified the terrible mistake of so-called pre-emptive war against Iraq, as Iraq had no meaningful connection with al Qaeda! Afganistan and the Taliban did have a strong connection to al Qaeda, and insisted on harboring al Qaeda even after the attack, so I think the case for the invasion of Afganistan was fairly solid. If instead of invading Iraq, following the invasion of Afganistan, the US had spent just half the vast resources we’ve wasted on Iraq instead on rebuilding Afganistan, in partnership with its Muslim neighbors, making Afganistan almost a paradise compared to its miserable condition under the Taliban, and on a targeted hunt for al Qaeda leadership, then I believe the good name of the US would shine today in the Muslim world, and al Qaeda would be at most a weak, discredited shadow of its former self, and no threat to the US. It is a lasting tragedy for us all, which I deeply regret, that the US leadership did not have the wisdom to follow this alternate course.
first…Jews controlling the economy? That is the hatred I talk about that you need to get rid of. There are powerful Jews, Christians, Muslims, Buddhists, Hindus, Japanese, Chinese, Mexicans, Canadians, Europeans, Arabs, and much more run this economy! You can’t just single out Jews. What is wrong with you?
Leave 9/11 alone! You have to grow up and realize…four planes were made to be missiles and only two hit their targets. I saw both of them with my own eyes hit the World Trade Center.
This is so sad to read. 3,000 Americans died that day…let their souls rest in peace.
Dan Tow
I and you don’t know that these people who named themselves as Al-Qaeda or Talibans, were they a product of the nurseries prepared against USSR. So A country having a strong intellegence infrastructure cannot have any advanvce information about the incident which claimed life of innocent people of America. If USA did not have any intelligence information then the people inside you were involved in this case. But to justify 3,000 Americans death, how many Americans and Muslims are going to be killed including infants. Please replace Dick Chenney and others from your government. The America will be more safe than ever.
Osama is in the Texas ranch of Bush.
