New Aerial Pictures of 9/11 Attacks in New York
Yesterday, for the first time these aerial pictures of the World Trade Center collapse on Sept. 11, 2001 were released. The photos were taken from a helicopter by the officers of New York Police Department and allow us to see the damage at a glance.
Check out 11 more pics after the jump.

Rampant, pointless mudslinging... written by us-us , January 29, 2011
The following is a cut and paste of 'Greg's rant from before, but I've find-replaced the following changes:
left -> right
liberal -> conservative
Mike -> Greg
I am non-partisan, and I think the enemy of progress is this kind of left/right, us/them blood-lust, on both sides:
"Do you see what I mean folks. When you tell the truth concerning the evil of the right, and the contempt they have for good, they start spluttering with incoherent rage. They are the simple-minded bullies who are not used to being defied by their intellectual, patriotic and moral betters, the majority of this once (and future) great nation.
Most are like Greg here, however a few, the ones who "manage and herd" the rest of them are actually well-educated (a side benefit of having taken over OUR campuses), and a tiny few of those who are well-educated, are actually intelligent as well. They are not wise, however they ARE intelligent. They are the PUBLIC face of conservativeism, and have always spoken for the rest who are merely sheep being herded from one field to another. Or to put it more accurately, lemmings being led blindly off one cliff after another.
Greg is a perfect example of this type, the reactionary bulk mob of the right. They, the mindless bulk mob of conservativeism, are largely incapable of true independent thought. They think that "independent thought" consists of simply screaming at and intimidating those who aren't like them, and parroting the nonsensical talking points of their handlers, the elitist "Thought Lords" of the right. These I call "Thought Lords" are the subtle (and sometimes not so subtle) serpents you see and hear on conservative news outlets, in blogs, at right-wing demonstrations and on campuses. However, even most of these wouldn't know a true original thought, let alone an INTELLIGENT (or God forbid a "WISE and INTELLIGENT") original thought if it came up and bit them in the ass. They are violently allergic to such things, and can't abide dissent. However, on those occasions that the "Thought Lords" of the right DO happen to recognize an intelligent thought, instead of altering their own nonsensical opinions, they simply create obfuscating talking points for their sheep to parrot mindlessly to each other and anyone else who will listen. All in an attempt to quell the wise and intelligent thought, or at least corral it harmlessly, lest it challenge their hegemony over the rest of us.
Methinks that Greg has not been administered his daily dose of talking points, and therefore has NO idea how to handle dissent from his masters viewpoints. So he strikes out blindly with rage, like any good couch poodle--barking madly at passersby from the living room window, when his master isn't there to shush him.
I think, for the good of conservative kind, it is time for one of the elitist "Thought Lords" to make an appearance here and gently inform Greg that he is out of his place and is embarrassing the rest of the mindless pack, and that he should just get back in that wretched horde with the rest of the lemmings and let his masters try to handle this nasty upstart from the heart of real America.
Meanwhile folks, get out and vote this week! Lets drive these slippery lizards back under their rock. It's past time, after several decades of severe damage, to take back America and try to repair it if we can" -[Greg,TheTrueAuthor]
Apparently, Greg, the original author, thought he was making a statement of substance, but it's quite clear that nothing here amounts to more than "Them are stupid; Us are smart." And sadly, that is representative of the worlds vast majority, USA included.
Thank you Greg, for reminding me of why I had lost hope for humanity.

the buildings were so obviously blown up it looks like a volcano ash cloud written by dolphid , December 24, 2010
We have all seen demolitions and there is nothing from the aerial shots that suggest not. Buildings that were simply hit by an airliner might crack the walls and shake the building in the part where it damaged the structure on the way in but it sure as hell would not drop the physical edifices in less than 11 seconds. Period. This event occurred once in the world...since steel buildings started sprouting throughout the cities of the planet since 1870. Do the probability analysis.

Thank you (so-called-but misnamed)"Real Australian", for helping me prove my point about the evil of the Left. I say you are misnamed, because there is NO "REAL" Australian who would EVER say that terrorism, or pictures of it, were "cool". You, and your sad copycat reference to yourself as being a "real Australian", reminds me of that hilarious scene in Crocodile Dundee where Paul Hogan and his girlfriend are confronted by an American gang punk (a NON-real American--if there ever were one), and she told him to give the jerk what he wanted "because he had a knife". To which Hogans character said, "Oh that's not a knife--THIS is a knife!" And whips out that big knife that he used to kill the crocodile with. I don't know much about Paul Hogan personally, but his character Dundee, and the real life (late) Steve Irwin are more like what I would like to think of as my image of "real Australians", than someone like you will ever be. You are more like that little switchblade knife, or the cowardly punk that held it, than you are a "real Australian". That is what I choose to believe about your country, and if it isn't true, then Australia is in big trouble!
And, BTW, America. Great job in the election of driving many of the lizards back under their rock. We'll get more of them in 2012, stay focused.

A bit of logic written by Mr.Sense , September 10, 2010
Very simply, whenever someone gets upset about the mention of 9/11, it's because you are letting your emotions cloud your vision. True, a very sad day when so many people die. Even more heartbreaking to know it was over money and not a passionately enraged group of people who's leader still can't be found (which would you prefer to believe?). Even after the staged destruction, people over the world are still losing lives to this demented display of greed and vengance on people effected. How many troops are still dying in Afghanistan? If you still feel that this was caused by an angry religious group, please go do a little propper research on: Who owned the twin towers, who benefited, who owns fox 'retardnation' news, damage done to any skyscrapper by planes.. When are people gonna unite against the ignorance?

USA and Rothschield Family are behind this written by Michael Moore , September 02, 2010
You Americans are all Rothschield families slaves. You don't even own USA Dollar. Go search it,
USA dollar is owned by rothschield family and they also own the English Pound (Sterlin) "which is the main reason they are not using Euro.
4 different Jew companies earned over 5 billion dollars for the towers destruction while they paid ~50 million dollars to buy them.
It is impossible to collapse a that strong and big structure with a plane hit (which hit the upper part of the tower). Search for it and do it with German Engineers, your engineers suck
yeah yeah belive Bush lies... Muslims did it alright

This sad event has nothing to do with religion. Trust your eyes. What you see here is the PULVERISATION of steel and cement. No airplane laden with kerosene can cause a massive steel structure to pulverise at the speed of free fall. In fact, before 9/11 no steel structure has ever collapsed due to fire. Suddenly, on that fateful day three buildings suddenly did. Building number 7, 47 floors high and with a few isolated fires within, collapsed on its footprint. Contolled demolition with a thermate admixture and bingo, the pictures above. Why? A pipeline through Afghanistan and the appropriation of Iraq's natural resources. And that is just the beginning...
