Do you believe that our own government was involved in the 9/11 attacks?

Despite what the others say I do think that the goverment had something to do with 9/11.my thoughts are slightly different though.I think the government wanted to start a war so that they wouldn't look so bad starting a fight over oil, money, or drug dealings gone bad.They blamed the whole thing on one terrorist but went after a different one.Here it is one war and another term later the issue of 9/11 and the truth still hasn't been understood. it is rarley even talked about. All those people died so that "key players" wouldn't look guilty.This is just an opinion not a fact.

You hit it right on the head with those kooks who believe that the government was behind 9/11. If they were so smart to do 9/11, which would have involved over 2000 people, plus the 3000 who died that day, to be complicit and part of the entire conspiracy. Taht is everyone in the NY Pd. The FDNY, the Port Authority, the employees of United and American (all 3000 of them), the fire fighters and police at the Pentagon, the CIA and FBI...which would mean it would have taken a considerable amoutn of difficult EFFORT to pull off,\n\nyet our government can't "plant" one nuclear device in a country as big as Iraq.

Look at the 9/11 attacks. Was that necessary? Was it necessary to attack London and Spain? Was it necessary to attack us back in 91? That is why we are at war.

Hello,\n\nYou know what, tonight I just watched the movie, "United 93", and at the end of the movie the producers had written some things about how the military were 100 miles away from the planes attacking the Twin Towers. \n\nOut loud I said, "We can thank President Clinton for closing all the military bases in that area. If they had been open, I am sure the military planes could have shot down the terrorists.\n\nBut then, I thought to myself, "Yeah right, this was all part of our governments plan to create a war and find our way into the New World Order."\n\nHope this helps you...................................................  :-)

Of course! Don't forget than Osama Bin Laden was trained in the USA in the early 80's. The american government needed a motive to declare the so-called "war against terrorism". And to succeed that it sacrificed its own people...

Well, it is more than just a terrorists attack; it is more likely to a government covering up its own agenda by blaming a '' foreign terrorists '' to justify its own acts for the benefits of few men.\nThere are few books which we need to read before making any judgment on '' WHO '' was behind 9/11, like:\n-The Terror Timeline : Year by Year, Day by Day, Minute by Minute: A Comprehensive Chronicle of the Road to 9/11--and America's Response\n-The New Pearl Harbor: Disturbing Questions About the Bush Administration and 9/11\n-The 9/11 Commission Report: Omissions And Distortions\n-The 9/11 Commission Report: Final Report of the National Commission on Terrorist Attacks Upon the United States (Authorized Edition)\n\nOr you can log on to the following links:\nhttp://www.reopen911.org\nhttp://www.erichufschmid.net\nhttp://www.hugequestions.com\n\nOr watch the video called ''Confronting the Evidence'' \n\nBefore making any judgment, check and double check your information resources and make sure that they are reliable then ask: Who is the beneficiary from 9/11 events, How he or they did it and the most important thing is '' Why ''.\n\nAlso, it is more logical to ask the people in charge of the country's security why and how they let these events to happen. Could they were be able to stop these events from happing?\n\nPresident Clinton has been investigated just for what was claimed as his Sexual adventure, but President Bush is out of any kind of investigations even that there were more than 4000 victims in these events.\n\nBlaming the others is very easy for some people; those type of people don’t have the courage to confront them selves with the truth and the facts.

The bush administration is responsible for the whole 9-11 attack. Watch 9-11: Loose Change (2nd Edition).

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.

Bin Laden was undoubtably behind the 9/11 attacks, although prior to 1996 the US Government did much to help sponsor his activities in the mistaken belief that he could be controlled by them.\n\nDuring the Russian invasian of Afghanistan the CIA supplied Bin Landen and his Taliban associated with much military hardware and training, something that came back to haunt them on 9/11.

No, I dont know anyone in the 9/11 tragedy...but when I heard aobut it, I was freaked out, but I was still a naive kid, but I wasnt screaming 'Mommy! Mommy!' I was in school when it happened (I think) and I had no idea until I got home when my mom told me. I wasnt too concerned...until now after I watched Farenheit 9/11 (really cool movie) and saw Bush's reaction to it, which got me against him. I mean, he's our leader and when some dude next to him says 'The nation's under attack', he does nothing except read to the little 1st graders. My point being: I HATE BUSH! and that I was freaked out about 9/11 :P

Most 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.  The picture of the cut core beam should be of special interest to someone with demolition knowledge.\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\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\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.  Melted red hot steel was also found in "ground zero" of all three WTC buildings, including WTC7; the one no jet ever hit.\nhttp://youtube.com/watch?v=ExrVgioIXvk&search=thermite\nhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y3D2myMbQjQ\n\nFORENSICS\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. Click on pic. to enlarge.\nhttp://portland.indymedia.org/en/2006/06/341238.shtml\n\nCONFESSION \nWe also have a video recording, where owner Larry Silverstein, admits to demolishing WTC7.\nhttp://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-7750532340306101329\n\nTESTIMONY\nThere is also a problem with the Pentagon attack. Listen to this retired general, He says, "The Plane does not fit the hole; so what did hit the Pentagon..."\nhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K2VoUN-7RVU&eurl=\n \nThis video, obtained by a public interest group, shows the top rear fin of an air craft hiding behind a call box: Whatever is hiding back there, is under 48 ft. long, to small to be a Boeing 757, which is over 155 ft. long.\nhttp://www.clipaday.com/2006/05/pentagon_plane_crash_from_sept.html\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 buil

Let's think about this a little bit...how long do you think that it would have taken anyone to plan out an attack like that. Think about how many people would have to be involved. I don't think that Bush could have done it in the amount of time that he was president. If you want to believe it was our own government that was involved I would have to start looking at the Clinton administration or administrations preceding that. That doesn't seem to work!\n\nCome on people! There are terrorists out there that want us dead. Why is that so hard to understand. Oh yeah and for those people that sit there and accuse Bush for 9/11 and then sit there and talk about how stupid he is, I think that you need to pick one...because those two ideas do not work together!

I never thought I'd be one of "those people" who believed in who believed in some far-out "conspiracy theory."  Yet, here I am ... on the other side.  And now it is so frustrating.  No "mainstream" media or establishment will touch or entertain the thought that it wasn't terrorists who orchestrated the destruction on 9/11.  And as I now write and can imagine others who read this and "dis" this idea as one of those idotic conspiracy theories, I can only think, "been there, done that."  Yeh, I've "dissed" all those people as loonies.  So, for right now it seems quite lonely because it's hard to hang one's hat on anything tangible ... there's no place to go with these new thoughts in my head.\nOkay, I'm a democrat, but people, this goes beyond politics.  This is about being mislead by some organization within our own borders!  Sure, like everyone else, on 9/11 it was obvious that it was us Americans against some foreign enemy.  We were all united.  Why can't everyone be convinced that our real enemy is not across the sea, but operates within our own country, and for some reason created 9/11 in order to obtain their greedy and misguided objectives?

Try this link. It will reveal and answer a lot of questions you may have.\n\nhttp://fpiarticle.blogspot.com/2006/04/911-in-plane-site.html\n\nI dont believe a plane crashed into the pentagon. Flight 93 was made up. The planes that crashed into the WTC's were not commercial airlines. There is no proof! With all the video footage... you never really see the commercial logos. It's all bogus.\n\nThink about it. Why would the government do this? To create FEAR! This is the new era. There is no more cold war. No more bad super power. So where does the government turn for war? To an invisible word called "Terrorist". The war on terrorism is only a few words. \n\nFear makes me people more controllable. They spend more. They submit to anything that will protect them. And in exchange for it all is our freedom.

9/11 was by definition a conspiracy.  More than one person planned and executed the crime.  Leaders of a group (Al Queda) organized the operation and sent lower-ranking members to carry it out.  The Fed Gov't tried Moussaoui on conspiracy charges, to which he confessed and for which he was convicted.\n\nIf what you really mean is, did the US government and Israel conspire to blow up the World Trade Center so they could take control of Middle Eastern oil, why are you wasting 5 pts on the question?  Just look at ten zillion resolved questions on the same topic and you'll get a fair sense of how the Yahoo community feels about this ridiculous topic.

I believed the official story of 9/11 for a while. Then I woke up. Though some of the official story may be true, too much of it has been de-bunked and now it just doesnt add up. People can beleive what they like, but lets take a look at some issues of concern. Great question!\n\nWe are a country that spent five years and $100 million investigating President Clinton. We probed the depths of the Iran-Contra scandal – a debacle that would have never come fully into the public eye had a special investigator not been appointed.\n\nThe 9/11 Commission interviewed two of it's own members and spent only $3 million.

The full power over our Military was Given to King Bush and The Bush Bunch by Our Congress right after 911.When we attack another country now,it is not as the US, although it is mostly US military,it is King Bush and his Multi- National forces.The tragic part for us U.S. Citizens is the whole world thinks we are all behind this.The truth is many,many of us can see how awfully wrong all this is.The main fear is it will get much,much worse.
