This is the recent update from Stratfor:

Terrorists Attack World Trade Center

Two airplanes crashed into the World Trade Center towers in Manhattan Sept. 11, in what U.S. President George W. Bush called an “apparent terrorist attack.” The first plane, reportedly a hijacked American Airlines 767 from Boston, hit the northern tower at around 9 a.m. eastern time, WABC reported. It was followed about 18 minutes later by a second aircraft which collided into the second southern tower.

The militant group the Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine has allegedly claimed credit for the attack. Both the White House and the Pentagon have also been evacuated, after a helicopter reportedly crashed into or near the Pentagon

Well, if it really was the Palestinians (or Bin Laden on behalf of hte Palestinians), then we know all we have to do is negotiate with them, just as Israel has been doing so successfully. Perhaps Clinton or Jackson will offer to act as chief negotiator. Scuse, me, I have to spit blood now.

It's possible that bombs were planted in the WTC towers--I can't see how they would have come down like that otherwise.

I think I may be right--just looking at the footage. Bombs planted in the basement or parking garage, I bet. Get all the rescue workers--typical terrorist ploy. Put the death toll in the thousands.
