9/11 Conspiracy Files: 10 Years On

9/11 Conspiracy Files:
10 Years On

On the tenth anniversary of 9/11 “Conspiracy Files” re-examines whether the attacks on the World Trade Centre and the Pentagon were the work of Al Qaeda, or part of a much wider conspiracy.

Who was responsible for the attacks on the Twin Towers? A decade after their collapse and in the wake of the death of Osama Bin Laden, Conspiracy Files looks again at what really happened on 9/11.

President Obama has tried to dispel the conspiracy theories. But the questions keep coming. Why, they ask, was the hole in the Pentagon so small? Why did the World Trade Centre buildings collapse as if being demolished by explosives? Why did Tower 7 fall when it was never hit by a plane? And why was America so unprepared and so slow to react when warnings had been received?

The death of Osama Bin Laden should have put an end to the conspiracy theories, but the failure to release any pictures of Bin Laden’s death and the hasty disposal of his body in the Arabian Sea has given these theories a new burst of life.

Featuring fresh CIA and FBI interviews, along with leading sceptics and new photographic evidence of American Airlines Flight 77 which crashed into the Pentagon, this programme analyses the evidence and looks at what makes conspiracy theories so powerful.

9/11 Conspiracy Files: The Third Tower

9/11 Conspiracy Files: The Third Tower delves into one of mysteries surrounding Sept. 11th, a third tower at the World Trade Centre, which along with the Twin Towers, collapsed on that fateful day. But this skyscraper was never hit by a plane. This 47-story tower fell seven hours after the others and has become the subject of heated speculation and conspiracy theories largely fuelled by the internet. 9/11 was the first global event in the age of the worldwide web and it’s being used as a platform for a wide range of conspiracy theories – more than 50 at the last count – that allege that the U.S. government was somehow involved in the attacks on the World Trade Centre and the Pentagon. Conspiracy theorists like Dylan Avery believe the Third Tower was brought down by a series of controlled explosions.

Worth a thought…

“If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.”

— Joseph Goebbels, the Nazi propaganda minister

There is no world conspiracy? – People who believe that there is no major world conspiracy which involves a small number of people manipulating humanity through a hierarchical structure of control toward a New World Order, all have one identical factor in common. They have, in actual fact, not looked genuinely into the abundance of well-researched information on world conspiracy to see if there is one! – By David Icke

Conspiracy Theory with Jesse Ventura: 9/11: The Pentagon

The idea that a missile or explosives—not a hijacked jetliner—damaged the Pentagon on September 11, 2001 seems the most unlikely of 9/11 theories. That is, until you look at all the factors, which include eyewitness testimony, crime scene video, expert analysis and the question why, with 85 cameras trained on the building, have only five frames of crash footage have ever been released? Jesse Ventura leads a serious investigation into a tangled web of clues that some say are too sacred to even touch.

PS: Your Comments

TO ALL:
Reading all these posts about how 9-11 was an inside job and how the U.S. is turning into a fascist dictatorial government are very entertaining and fanciful. I suggest you check one of the more recent articles posted on this website entitled The Psychology of Conspiracy Theories and you will discover the reasons why people concoct such theories. This goes along with the idea that the majority of conspiracy theories are developed based on the relationship between one’s neurochemistry and one’s social/political/economic environment. In other words, its all in your head!! Americans are angry and disapproving of the workings of their government. Politicians are not very cooperative and can’t come to an agreement about how to deal with saving this country from destruction. There are a lot of problems in this country and things need to change. Conspiracy theories are not helping this country. The culture of conpiracy in this country is hurting us intellectually; we are struggling to look for an enemy, an evildoer, someone to blame for all the problems in this country. Once the mind begins to look for that enemy, there is a tendency to develop a network of conspiracy. There are conspiracies; there is no doubt about that. Humans conspire all the time! 9-11 was not an inside job. I think that every September, teachers around the country should include in their curriculum a day to remember what happened that day and teach students to critically think about these theories eventually arriving at the conclusion that they are false and not based in reality. Educators need to address these ridiculous theories because they are so rampant among students due to the success of the internet. I suggest you all read both sides. Entertain yourself by reading the conspiracy theories (they are very entertaining by the way) and look at the other side which is more credible and steeped in truer notions rather than speculative and fearful inferences. Its very easy to concoct a conspiracy theory, and even easier to accept them. Do yourself a favor: Don’t accept them at face value. Most of all, take a moment to remember and honor the memory of those souls who perished that day.
