September 11 attacks

The Attacks

The 2001 September 11 attacks were a series of four coordinated terrorist attacks by the terrorist group al-Qaeda on the USA.
Four passenger airliners were hijacked by 19 al-Qaeda terrorists to be flown into buildings in suicide attacks. Two of the planes, American Airlines and United Airlines, were crashed into the North and South towers of the World Trade Center. Within two hours, both towers collapsed with debris and the resulting fires causing partial or complete collapse of all other buildings in the WTC.

Osama bin Laden's Purposes

The motivation of Osama, was that with the invasion of the US army on their lands, and the killing of innocent people, the US was starting a holy war against the orient cultures. In bin Laden's  "Letter to America", he explicitly stated that al-Qaeda's motives for their attacks were:

*U.S. support of Israel

*Support for the "attacks against Muslims" in Somalia

*Support of Russian "atrocities against Muslims" in Chechnya

*Support of Indian "oppression against Muslims" in Kashmir

*The presence of U.S. troops in Saudi Arabia

*The sanctions against Iraq

The Flights

The four planes that crashed onto the towers were:
*The American Airlines Flight 11: a Boeing 767 that departed from Boston's Airport at 7:59 a.m. en route to Los Angeles. The hijackers flew the plane into the North Tower of the World Trade Center at 8:46 a.m.
*The United Airlines Flight 175: a Boeing 767 that departed from Boston's Airport at 8:14 a.m. en route to Los Angeles. The hijackers flew the plane into the South Tower of the World Trade Center at 9:03 a.m.
*The American Airlines Flight 77: a Boeing 757 that departed from Washington Airport in Virginia at 8:20 a.m. en route to Los Angeles. The hijackers flew the plane into the Pentagon at 9:37 a.m.

Conspiracies:

Some of the conspiracies turns on the point that jet fuel, cant melt steel beams. That the WTC 7 builiding fall apart without any plane crashing onto it. And the form of the dismantlement of the WTC turned into a mystery, because making the "maths" of energy and using the constants the buildings will not fall apart without another impulse, coming from the inside.
