Inside Traders Knew About Attacks Before They Happened

1. Inside Traders Knew About Attacks Before They Happened Right before the September 11th attacks, some fishy business happened within the stock market and insurance firms. An “extraordinary” amount of traders sold shares in United Airlines and American Airlines, the same airlines that were hijacked during the attacks. Many speculate that traders were tipped off about the attacks and profited from the tragedy. The Securities and Exchange Commission launched an insider trading investigation after receiving information from at least one Wall Street Firm. Air Defense Was Told To ‘Stand Down’ In the event that a airplane were to be hijacked, the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) is prepared to send out fighter jets which can debilitate or shoot down an airplane. On 9/11/01, NORAD generals said they learned of the hijackings in time to scramble fighter jets. But the official story goes that no fighter jets got to the hijacked planes. This is despite there being almost an hour and a quarter between the first plane hitting the World Trade Centre and United Flight 93 being crashed in a fight between passengers and hijackers.

2. Planes Didn’t Make Twin Towers Collapse, Bombs Did The World Trade Center collapse appeared similar to a controlled demolition. Many speculate that the towers were in fact blown down with explosives placed in selected locations. Some witnesses accounted hearing explosions inside the building as they attempted to escape. Many architects and scientists even maintain that a plane’s fuel cannot produce enough heat to melt the steel frame of the two buildings that collapsed. The Pentagon Attack Scientifically Doesn’t Hold Up The Pentagon crash may be the most-puzzling event of the day. Theorists maintain that the impact holes in the pentagon were much smaller then a commercial American Airlines plane. They also question why the plane was not shot down prior to impact, as well as why the plane hit a section of the Pentagon that was vacant due to renovations.

3. Flight 93 Was Completely Staged The fourth hijacked plane, Flight 93, crashed in Shanksville, Pennsylvania. It is believed that the passengers fought back and crashed the plane in to a field. Conspiracy theorists believe that Flight 93 landed safely, while a substitute plane was shot out of the sky. Other theorists believe that the passengers were murdered or relocated and will never be found. Hijackers Are Alive. How Did Their Passports Survive Explosion? After the September 11th attacks, the “Loose Change” documentary stated that all of the hijackers were in fact alive in other countries. Rather presumptuous since it is possible for two different people to have identical names. But they did raise a good point; how did the passports of the terrorists survive the explosion? In the aftermath of the attacks, passports and identification were found as evidence. Many skeptics question how identification made out of paper survived an explosion, which destroyed buildings.

4. Cell Phone Calls Made From Planes Were Faked In flight calls were made from cell phones in hi-jacked airplanes. Scientists and skeptics maintain that cell phones could not receive reception from the altitude the planes typically fly at. Other skeptics questioned a phone call from a son to his mother, in which he referred to himself by his own first and last name. Black Boxes Found By Search Crew Kept Secret During the ensuing weeks after the attacks, the black boxes were one of the most-important items to find. They were the only evidence in to what happened inside the cockpits of the plane. Three of 4 black boxes were found and only one was in good enough condition to listen to. The tape was not initially released but was shared with the families in 2002. Conspiracy theorists believe the tapes were not disclosed in order to support the secret scheme.

5. Aluminium Planes Can’t Penetrate Steel Structure Of World Trade Centre Commercial airplanes’ frames are constructed with a very light aluminium material in order to make it easier to fly. Theorists maintain that there is no possible way an airplane can do as much damage as it did to the Twin Towers as it did. Theorists believe that missiles or explosives were used to ensure the buildings collapsed.
