Are we honesly expected to believe that there would not be fatalities when a whole floor collapses on construction workers directly below. It would be nice if only minor injuries were sustained, but extremely doubtful in my view.

I must admit that did cross my mind when I heard it on the radio this afternoon.

Hello.Kitty

i don't think the roof will come down as quick as it was in 9/11 as there are no explosives involve in that !!

it will come down but not that quickly.. maybe they had their time to escape... technically it is not imposible ... but again .. it is not impossible either that media lie about news or fake part of it

I see conspiracy theories are alive and well!

If you ask a lot of Arabs, many of them believe the conspiracy theories about the US and Israel creating the 9/11 tragedy as a way to forge against arabs, muslims and anyone that has oil or assets which are not controlled by them already.

Of course they do...they are in complete denial to outsiders that Muslims could do such a thing.

Which is utter rubbish...however, I do feel that the situation was used to boost military spending by invading Iraq which made a lot of people very rich.

Not sure about the oil thing though as a replacement for that is not too far away now and demand for oil has dropped in Western countries as they are getting tired of giving their money to people who fund terrorism.

... to remove saddam hussein as a regional threat, hoprfully creating stability wher the native populations seem incapable of doing so. So, do they have all the oil safely back in the US now? Basing reasonable arguments based on youtube is I'm afraid laughable -shall we find some that you find slightly less palatable and don't suit your view of the world?

9/11 conspiracy theories have been long discredited.

[QUOTE=Beard Man;7233825] Regime change was the aim - to stop it going to war with Iran, Kuwait etc again - those wars make Gaza look like a sunday school picnic!. WMD did exist, (and was used albeit against Iraqi citizens). Many of the Iraqi senior commanders believed they had it available to them at the time of the coalition invasion, and called for its use - they were as dissapointed not to find it a the US and UK were. It was not for this simplistic reason alone, though it is a convenient stick to beat the US with.

So is the US swimming in a pool of free oil from Iraq now? - If so why has the price of fuel been so high in the US? - answer please.

W10

You have a very odd point of view.

WMDs was the stated aim for the invasion. Regime change (for regional stability - when even an idiot could have told them that the opposite was extremely likely) was never mentioned in the build up to the war.

Everyone knew about the WMDs of old (as the US helped get them) but they were used more than a decade previously.

Fact is, the US had planned the war for years, yet had no idea what it was getting into. Strange!
