@burnoutqueen @Theblueone Zero empathy, he can't even fake it.
"40 Wall Street actually was the second-tallest building in downtown Manhattan, and it was actually, before the World Trade Center, was the tallest — and then, when they built the World Trade Center, it became known as the second tallest. And now it’s the tallest," Trump in a radio interview the afternoon of 9 Sep 2001 when everyone knows there must be thousands of victims in the rubble of the World Trade Center.
He's a piece of shit.
“Immediately after #9_11 dozens of Saudi royals and members of the bin Laden family fled the U.S. in a secret airlift authorized by the Bush White House.” One passenger was an al-Qaida go-between, who may have known about the terror attacks in advance. Our first excerpt from "House of Bush, House of Saud."

If you're wondering why none of the planes were intercepted, many of the aircraft were involved in a training simulation of several scenarios, one of which was several simultaneous hijackings taking place with the hijacked planes being used as weapons. Yes, really.

There's no getting around the fact that the crash site looks weird though. No real crater and debris strewn over a couple of kilometres.

United Airlines Flight 93 (4th plane/Shanksville) was hijacked at 9:28am, eventually turned off its transponder and flew for 35 min before what appears to be a passenger revolt occurred. Dick Cheney authorised the plane to be shot down, but apparently the passenger revolt had led to the plane crashing on its own.

The plane executes a 330deg corkscrew turn, dropping altitude to basically land on the front lawn of the Pentagon at full speed (and knocking over some lamp posts) before slamming into the 5-storey building from the side.

American Airlines Flight 77 (3rd flight/pentagon) was hijacked between 8:51am and 8:54am, switched its transponder off and flew for 43-47 min without being intercepted and now the most incompetent pilot of all of the hijackers makes the most impressive manoeuvre.

United Airlines Flight 175 (2nd flight/south tower) was hijacked between 8:42am and 8:46am (roughly the time flight 11 hit the tower), but kept its transponder on and flew for 17-21 min without being intercepted before before making an almost dead-centre hit at full speed, while banking, on the south tower at 9:03am.
