Was it possible to stop 9/11?

[Romanos]

Some officials stated they knew some of the hijackers were on there and so introduces the point if it could have been stopped.

 

[psalms 91]

I think it could have been if there had been better coordination among agencies

If not then, eventually...

During that time period the crew on planes were told to obey hijackers under the belief that by doing so the life of the crew would be speared. the plane that overheard what the terrorist were actually doing was the one that fought back and didn't make it to the target. It is easy to say what if this or what if that but at the time people did what they thought was the best option.

Yes they did, it is to bad that people in this country havent figured out that we are at war with Islam and it will not get better, at least not unless we really start taking them out and that just isnt going to happen.

I have heard news that the hijackers were on lists of suspicious people so I guess if they had really watched these people 9/11 may not have happened.

Of course it was possible.
There are SO many holes in this whole story the only thing that keeps it together is that people are afraid to even think to think outside of box.
We are becoming like USSR - afraid to question.
911 needs to be re-investigated.
I was there in 2001, in the office few miles away in Midtown Manhattan.

A disclaimer - no, I do not believe U.S. planned this thing ... but we certainly knew about it and did a major cover up of this whole thing.

Am I supposed to believe this?

It is remarkable how many people simply don't question anything if it's done "for security reasons". It becomes a standard go-to excuse for anyone even remotely official who doesn't feel like cooperating because if they just cite "security concerns" everybody goes into full-on obedient puppy mode because they don't want to rock the boat.

Without going into too much detail on a public forum, most of the security procedures introduced since 9-11 are little more than making people feel as if Something Is Being Done. I increasingly wonder how much of it is an experiment to see just what people are willing to put up with, because most of it doesn't seem to actually increase security against what I'd consider the most obvious threat.

Much money and effort was put since Clinton's era (non-interrupted till now) to dumb down the American people.

The most obvious lies are no longer discerned.

Someone asked another - do you really believe that the passport of one of the hijackers survived the airplane blast into the Towers, fell 100 stories down and was found in excellent condition while literally no other parts of the plane survived?
hint ... and the person who claimed to have found the passport was the NYPD Police Commissioner Kerik ... who later on spent time in jail for mafia connections ...

And that person said - yes, I believe the whole story.

We became too stupid ... we were robbed of our reasoning and self-confidence to follow the truth.

We follow TV.

 

[psalms 91]

I agree that 9-11 could have been prevented and yes, the people accept anything in the name of security and we will pay the price for that

I think that our nation is embarrassed that we got caught being unsuspecting and that if we had done just one little thing we could have spared all. But I disagree. I don't think anyone could have foreseen the magnitude of the evil that was displayed.

Yet even Trump predicted a year before 9/11 that Osama would make a huge entrance and we would wind up bombing Afghanistan looking for him in caves.

“I really am convinced we’re in danger of the sort of terrorist attacks that will make the bombing of the Trade Center look like kids playing with firecrackers,” wrote Trump in his 2000 book, The America We Deserve. “No sensible analyst rejects this possibility, and plenty of them, like me, are not wondering if but when it will happen.”

“One day we’re told that a shadowy figure with no fixed address named Osama bin-Laden is public enemy number one, and U.S. jetfighters lay waste to his camp in Afghanistan,” The Donald wrote. “He escapes back under some rock, and a few news cycles later it’s on to a new enemy and new crisis.” -- Donald Trump, circa 2000​

I have been a full disbeliever in the official story since around 2005 or so, and 2003 is when I started to have doubts.

So when asked this question, it is meaningless to me because I don't believe some arab terrorists flew planes into buildings in the first place. Yes, I know that is what we were shown on television.

And no - it is not possible that what we saw on television is the truth. For many many reasons - but one could start with this:

Commercial aircraft like 767 air buses simply cannot fly at the speeds the world was shown (and told) they were flying at the altitudes we see them flying at. They simply cannot reach those speeds at those low altitudes - the planes are designed to fly top speed at 30,000 feet - where the air density is thinner. It is not possible for them to do it near ground level.

It is the year 2016 - and many many people still believe the official narrative. There is quality information out there, if one has an open mind and can get past the emotional impediment that is hindering questioning it.

We will never know the truth, and even if we did know the truth, what can be done about it? Putting people in prison for it is (imho) fruitless. It seems nobody really understands the end game that is prophesied in the prophecies in the Bible.

 

[Josiah]

IMO, of course, better intelligence COULD have prevented this.... and HOPEFULLY, such has/is/will prevent at least some attacks.

But I reject all the "conspiracy" theories. These were TERRORISTS, and they managed to pull off a big one, bigger than they probably even intended (it seems, they would not have predicted the towers would completely fall).

If every fact, information and logic is labeled a "conspiracy theory" because it does not jive with the "official" version of events put forth by government agencies, then the work of the government is already done.

Practically what this means is - they own everyone who believes their lies. That's not a metaphor or analogy - it's literal. Because blind faith in the God given or assumed God given authority of governments means they can do just about anything they want to their "subjects" - including sending them off to be maimed, tortured or killed for their own selfish purposes.

Greatest lesson from the Bible in regards to this subject: 1 Samuel chapter 8.

 

[psalms 91]

Yes, I believe it has been shown that it was possible

Weren't they hijacked by knife?

Heck yeah they could have been stopped if so.

People need to show backbone and not be cowards.

Faith in selfless Unity for Good.

True, but whatever version of events is true it's pretty fair to say that the worldview at the time was that a hijacked plane would be landed somewhere, at which point the hijackers would begin negotiations over how much money and/or what concessions it would take to free the hostages. The idea of using a plane as a missile hadn't been seen before.

The ones on the hijacked plane that crashed in Pa had courage
