World Trade Center Bombed!
 
Not so much 'bombed' as RAMMED by jet aircraft.

Looks like a deliberate terrorist attack.

Six confirmed dead, over one thousand injured.

Archie F. Swin 09-11-2001 07:12 AM

either an attack or a poor venture in air trafffic control . . . incredible video

HC_Chief 09-11-2001 07:13 AM

Oh Christ... FBI reports a hijacking before the planes struck.

I saw one of them hit the tower on live television - it was a big passenger jet 737 possibly (twin turbine)

Archie F. Swin 09-11-2001 07:15 AM

god . . . I hope those planes wern't full of passengers.

Two Planes Crash Into World Trade Center

Tuesday, September 11, 2001

NEW YORK — Two airplanes have crashed into the World Trade Center, igniting a huge blaze in the world's third tallest buildings.


The crashes by two aircraft into each of the Twin Towers immediately raise concerns that terrorists have launched an attack on the tallest buildings in New York City.

Flames can be seen pouring out of each of the 110-story Twin Towers, and smoke is billowing from the roof.

More than 40,000 people work at the World Trade Center. The downtown Manhattan complex comprises two buildings, with more than 400 firms from over 25 countries. The complex is so big, it requires two postal zip codes.

More than 100,000 business and leisure visitors come to New York's Twin Towers each day.

A second plane has crashed into the building...definately a terrorist attack

Archie F. Swin 09-11-2001 07:17 AM

that's one hell of a fire to be put out . . . someone tell me this is a dream[nightmare]

Iowanian 09-11-2001 07:18 AM

When the culprits are found....I hope "W" wipes enough people off the planet to make a very stern statement.

DaKCMan AP 09-11-2001 07:18 AM

And then after a second jet rammed the other building!

Archie F. Swin 09-11-2001 07:19 AM

if this is an attack . . . HOW DARE THEY TAKE CIVILIAN LIVES .! . . BASTARDS!

47mack 09-11-2001 07:20 AM

I work for a major airline and the whole building has gone silent

Dartgod 09-11-2001 07:20 AM

This is unbelievable...I can't access any news sites for an update. Their servers are probably getting hammered right now.

gh4chiefs 09-11-2001 07:21 AM

Terrorists don't give a damn about civilians CRP.

Archie F. Swin 09-11-2001 07:22 AM

the threat is now realized . . . wow

shakesthecat 09-11-2001 07:28 AM

Unreal!
Seeing the second plane hit, is just about the most disturbing thing I've ever seen.
The loss of innocent life makes me sick.

It's time to quit playing nice with these cowards. :mad:

Clint in Wichita 09-11-2001 07:34 AM

It's time to quit screwing around with Osama Bin Laden. I want this co_ksucker dead, and I'm not B.S.ing. If we can't find him, let's start hunting down his family.

His torture and excecution should be the first to be televised on network television in America.

nmt1 09-11-2001 07:34 AM

One of the planes was supposedly hijacked from Boston on it's way to LA. Probably full of passengers.

Dartgod 09-11-2001 07:35 AM

Where are you guys accessing the info? I can't get to any news site right now.

DaKCMan AP 09-11-2001 07:38 AM

Now there's a report of a possible explosion at the Pentagon...

ExtremeChief 09-11-2001 07:38 AM

Same here Dart... I've tried CNN, ABC, Fox.... won't even start to give me access...


thank goodness I can get info here...


this whole thing makes me sick, the complete disregard for human life unbelievable...

gh4chiefs 09-11-2001 07:39 AM

I'm getting my info from radio Dartgod. We also have a small Tv here in our office. The second jet that rammed the tower happened on live TV.

BigOlChiefsfan 09-11-2001 07:39 AM

A Day to live in infamy. Pearl Harbor 2. Sounds like it's some rag head Palestinians yipping about it.

Nuke the ba$tards.

gh4chiefs 09-11-2001 07:40 AM

Explosion at Pentagon????
 
I just heard it! They're reporting a plane crash there now.

Goddammit, they better get the President under cover NOW

The_Grand_Illusion 09-11-2001 07:40 AM

My prayers go out to the victoms and their families. What a cowardly act.

DaKCMan AP 09-11-2001 07:41 AM

I'm watching NBC News and saw the second plane crash live. Now they're showing the Pentagon and it appears there was an explosion at the helo-port next to the Pentagon and there is a large cloud of smoke covering the building and surrounding area.

DaKCMan AP 09-11-2001 07:43 AM

Now they're getting some reports that it was either a detonated bomb or a plane crash of some sort near the building.

CanadaKC 09-11-2001 07:43 AM

Oh my God!!! This is horrible!!! The White House and Pentagon are being evacuated as well!!! There's a fire in the Pentagon!!! I'm so sorry for the world today!!!:( :( :( :( :( :(

Dartgod 09-11-2001 07:43 AM

Thanks for the updates, keep em coming PLEASE! This whole thing is just sickening...

shakesthecat 09-11-2001 07:44 AM

Not sure what is going on at the Pentagon, other than smoke is pouring out it.
The reporter on NBC said he heard and felt an explosion.

Let's hope this isn't just the beginning.

alanm 09-11-2001 07:46 AM

The Pentagon was hit also. I suspect we will be going to war when we find out who is responsible.

Phobia 09-11-2001 07:47 AM

Mall of America got hit, too. I don't have any details, though.

KCTitus 09-11-2001 07:48 AM

Just heard that White House has been threatend with an attack.

It's time to get some fighters in the air.

Mark M 09-11-2001 07:48 AM

An explosion outside of the Pentagon. Two planes into the world trade center.

WTF?? :mad: :(

Can't get onto CNN, Fox, or anywhere else.

MM
~~Glad he lives away from potential targets

DaKCMan AP 09-11-2001 07:48 AM

On Dubai television there was a report that a Palestinian group is claiming responsibility and Sharon and Arafat's scheduled meeting today has been canceled.

gh4chiefs 09-11-2001 07:49 AM

Is there a confirmation what happened at the Pentagon. Bomb or plane?

Mark M 09-11-2001 07:50 AM

Every airport in the country has been closed.

gh4chiefs 09-11-2001 07:50 AM

Whitehouse evacuated because of a "credible threat" of a terrorist attack there.

Mark M 09-11-2001 07:50 AM

This is fucking crazy. Anyone got a good link?

alanm 09-11-2001 07:51 AM

Arafat's a Dead man!!!!

KCTitus 09-11-2001 07:51 AM

I just heard it was a plane that hit Mall/Pentagon...not sure what was hit.

Dartgod 09-11-2001 07:53 AM

Talking to my wife...She heard a plane hit the executive bldg. behind the Pentagon

Dartgod 09-11-2001 07:55 AM

Mark, I can't access anything. I'm stuck here in the basement at work with no radio or anything. I'm getting all my updates from here and my wife who has a radio in her office.

Clint in Wichita 09-11-2001 07:55 AM

It's gotta be Osama Bin Laden...he was behind the World Trade Center bombing AND the attack on the USS Cole.

If this doesn't warrant an all-out military strike against the country harboring him, I don't know what does.

Stupid shit like this is how world wars are started.

47mack 09-11-2001 07:56 AM

Don't believe everything you are hearing...

all these news stations are only speculating right now.

Baby Lee 09-11-2001 07:56 AM

We need to set an expedited timetable to transform every spot on the globe where a person with knowledge of these acts stand into a crater.

KCTitus 09-11-2001 07:57 AM

Another plane just went after the towers...it missed.

alanm 09-11-2001 07:59 AM

There will deifinatly be some retribution on a massive scale. This is too big to ignore or bring someone to trial over. There will be retaliation.

Iowanian 09-11-2001 07:59 AM

This crap really really puts me in a fighting mood. A group should be wiped off the earth in such a manner....

Bush is on the radio issueing the threat and promising retailiation as I type....

"The terrorists will be hunted down, found, and punished for their actions."

KCTitus 09-11-2001 08:01 AM

It appears that the 2nd tower has collapsed...

Baby Lee 09-11-2001 08:01 AM

Reports now that the entirety of tower two has collapsed. What an unimaginable loss of life.

gh4chiefs 09-11-2001 08:02 AM

Radio news reports that the north tower of the WTC has collapsed. On TV you can't tell as it is completely engulfed in smoke and dust.

Update: A reporter just said it was the south tower. Not sure which one, but one is definitely down.

shakesthecat 09-11-2001 08:02 AM

It appears that a very large section of one of the towers has collapsed. There is a giant dust cloud engulfing the area.

Archie F. Swin 09-11-2001 08:03 AM

lower manhattan is enveloped in smoke . . . looks like a movie

Archie F. Swin 09-11-2001 08:05 AM

God be with us

BigOlChiefsfan 09-11-2001 08:06 AM

I've got a friend who works at the World Trade tower, sending a prayer out for that rascal now.

Cowboy up, America. Where does an old fat man go to join the Marine Corps?

Archie F. Swin 09-11-2001 08:07 AM

I never thought I would ever witness the World trade Center Crumble . . . this is a nightmare

KCTitus 09-11-2001 08:07 AM

This is a complete act of war...the US should consider it as such and mobilize.

Hoover 09-11-2001 08:08 AM

Please take a minute and pray for those who are in danger, and pray for our country.

ptlyon 09-11-2001 08:09 AM

And I have a friend that is over in Kuait for the Air Guard.

I bet he's $hitting his pants right now...

Stryker 09-11-2001 08:09 AM

Jesus Christ I can't believe this!!! My wife just got back from Manhattan this past Sunday! I pray heads will roll for this. :mad:

gh4chiefs 09-11-2001 08:11 AM

Ladies and Gentlemen,

It's time to send someone a BIG message and I don't mean a few F117 flyovers.

KCTitus 09-11-2001 08:11 AM

Another explosion on Capitol Hill...

The_Grand_Illusion 09-11-2001 08:12 AM

Amen Hoover.

philfree 09-11-2001 08:12 AM

As terrible as it all is I just hope there is no germ warfare or something worse involved.

alanm 09-11-2001 08:13 AM

The reports were that it was a secondary explosion.

Clint in Wichita 09-11-2001 08:13 AM

If it was Arafat and not Bin Laden, there aren't that many Palestinians. They should read up on the American Indian before they go attacking the USA.

Is anyone else's blood pressure and pulse absolutely through the roof right now? My fuggin hands are shaking!!!!! :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

ptlyon 09-11-2001 08:13 AM

Titus...
 
Where are you getting this info? Haven't heard of the mall or the other Capitol Hill explosion.

gh4chiefs 09-11-2001 08:14 AM

I'm with you Clint. I want BLOOD!

Archie F. Swin 09-11-2001 08:15 AM

the WTC is an icon of New York City and American strength in capitalism. this is the civilain version of Pearl Harbor.

alanm 09-11-2001 08:15 AM

I'm watching it Live on Fox

KCTitus 09-11-2001 08:16 AM

Im watching CNN on one TV and hearing the CNBC audio feed...

CNN and CNBC both have reported the explosions at the pentagon.

KCTitus 09-11-2001 08:16 AM

Clint: agreed...my heart is racing. I need to kill something.

Quick! Give me a spotted owl!

Iowanian 09-11-2001 08:17 AM

I'm with you Clint,

My BP is sky high....Screw networking some measley PC's....I'm in the mood to strangle and beat some Palestinians.

ptlyon 09-11-2001 08:18 AM

They'd better not get close to Iowa, Right Boyz???

Baby Lee 09-11-2001 08:20 AM

Every plane now in the air had better find a runway quick. With 9:00 am 40 minutes away in LA, I would expect sortees to be scrambling in the next 10 minutes to blow everything bigger than a spotted owl out of the sky.

gh4chiefs 09-11-2001 08:20 AM

CBS radio said something happened at the "State Department" might have been a plane. That's all I know.

KCTitus 09-11-2001 08:20 AM

Hells bells....Im right across the street from the Federal Reserve in Richmond. They have closed the streets around the building.

Im hoping it doesnt get around here.

alanm 09-11-2001 08:21 AM

Just heard a report that the Israile-sp Goverment believes it's Osama Bin Laden.

Baby Lee 09-11-2001 08:21 AM

No sooner do I post, than there is a report of another hijacking in the eastern corridor. A fighter escort is en route.

If true, do we shoot this thing out of the sky with the civilian lives aboard?

KCTitus 09-11-2001 08:22 AM

Yes! Shoot it out of the sky!
