Terror in the Sky: The Top 5 Biggest Air Disasters in History

I flipped on the Today Show morning news program in Los Angeles a few minutes before 6am. They were showing a video of a huge gaping hole in the side of one of the World Trade Center buildings, with a massive black cloud billowing out. One of the anchors, Katie Couric said, “As Matt just mentioned we have a breaking news story to tell you about. Apparently a plane has just crashed into the World Trade Center here in New York City.”

A few minutes later, at 903am, out of the side of the screen, a second plane screamed into view and then slammed into the side of the other tower at full speed.

The worst aviation related disaster of all time was happening live on my television.

World Trade Center Attacks – New York City, 2001

When factoring in deaths on both aircraft and the ground, the terrorist attack on the World Trade Center in New York City on September 11, 2001 was the worst aviation related disaster of all time. The two planes involved were American Airlines Flight 11 and United Airlines Flight 175. In addition to the New York airplane attacks, there were two other planes involved in the terrorist operation.

The first of the second group of planes was American Airlines Flight 77, which crashed into the Pentagon in Washington, D.C. – 184 people were killed. In Pennsylvania, United Airlines Flight 93 crashed into an open field, killing 44—that brought the total number of deaths due to the September 11 terrorist attacks to 2,996 (which included the 19 terrorists).

The terrorists were tied to al-Qaeda and their leader Osama bin Laden. At first he denied involvement but finally admitted responsibility in 2004. The initial U.S. armed response was the War on Terror, targeting the Taliban in Afghanistan, as they were protecting and helping many al-Qaeda terrorists.

At home the American government started the Patriot Act, which radically increased government and police power to monitor personal communication and information including email, phone conversations, medical records and more. Critics said that Americans had lost many of the civil liberties that they had fought long and hard for and that the new rules invited government over-stepping.  However, polls at the time showed many Americans believed the possible loss of privacy was part of the price to try to locate and apprehend terrorist cells.

Despite massive intelligence efforts, Osama bin Laden could not be found. Over the years he taunted his pursuers with periodic videotape messages released to worldwide media. On May 11, 2011 American Navy Seals dropped into a compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan where recent intelligence led them to believe bin Laden was living. In the ensuing firefight, bin Laden was killed, his body taken to Afghanistan to be fully identified, and then was buried at sea.

99% Undeniable Conclusive Evidence That 9/11 Was An Inside Job ...

– The US government had knowledge prior of the attacks and knew that airplanes would be hi-jacked, but they took no measure to prevent such an event from happenning. Lieutenant Colonel Anthony Shaffer worked with a military intelligence program “Able Danger” in 2000, and they identified 4 of the hi-jackers as possible Al Qaeda members. Beginning in September 2000, three meetings set up with the FBI by him were each canceled by military lawyers. Shaffer lost his security clearance to view classified information after going public. This prior knowledge blatantly contradicts George Bush’s and Condoleezza Rice’s statements that nobody could have predicted terrorists to fly airplanes into those buildings.

– The Bush administration had many ties with Saudi Arabia; George Bush Sr. would stay with Bin Laden’s family when he used to go to Saudi Arabia.

– There is no evidence to support the governments claim that Osama Bin Laden orchestrated 9/11, even though they claimed to have this evidence and they would release it to the public. It has yet to be released.

– On Osama Bin Laden’s most wanted poster, indictment charges for 9/11 were not included. FBI chief of investigative publicity stated that the reason for this is the FBI has no hard evidence conneting Osama to 9/11.

– The FBI claimed that money was wired to the terrorists in small amounts to avoid detection, yet $100,000 was wired to Mohamed Atta in August of 2001 by Mahmoud Ahmad, the director of the ISI, which was facilitated by Saeed Sheikh, the man who allegedly kidnapped and murdered Wall Street journal reporter Daniel Pearl, who was investigating the ties between the ISI and Islamic militants. The ISI has had ties to the CIA since the 80s with the establishment of the Muja Hardin, which evolved into Al Qaeda. General Mahmoud Ahmad was meeting with D.C. insider Senator Bob Graham and Porter Gass, the future director of CIA, on the morning of 9/11. Ahmad also met with the CIA director on September 4th.

– In a White House transcript of a Q/A done with Condoleezza Rice, a question about that meeting and the wired money was censored. The 9/11 Commission claimed that the funding for the attacks is not important.

– In the two years prior to the 9/11 attacks, NORAD conducted exercises with fighter jets to simulate hi-jacked planes flown into the world trade centers. If that unbelievable coincidence isn’t enough, Pentagon planners also envisioned the attack on the Pentagon 5 months before it occurred. An April 2001 Pentagon e-mail said that Air Force officials wanted a War Game where a terrorist group would hi-jack a commercial airline and fly it into the Pentagon to check response times for fighter jets, yet that plan was rejected by senior Pentagon officials as “too unrealistic”.
