NEW YORK (AP) -- An aircraft crashed into the upper floors of one of the World Trade Center towers Tuesday morning, and black smoke poured out of two gaping holes, witnesses said. Shortly afterward a second explosion rocked the other tower.

There was no immediate word on injuries or fatalities in the twin disasters, which happened shortly before 9 a.m. and then right around 9 a.m.

The towers were struck by bombers in February 1993.

"The plane was coming in low and ... it looked like it hit at a slight angle,'' said Sean Murtagh, a CNN vice president, the network reported.

Large holes were visible in sides of the 110-story buildings, landmark twin towers.

The tops of the twin towers were obscured by the smoke.

Thousands of pieces of what appeared to be office paper came drifting over Brooklyn, about three miles from the tower, one witness said.

The center bombing on Feb. 26, 1993, killing six people and injured more than 1,000 others.

ok so the UK government has just activated COBRA which i've heard is some kind of terroist situation plan.

i think somehting like this has got to respond with some kind of of international cooperation and i'm hoping that even though this thing is really fucked up that people wont stand for shit like this to ever happen again and that mabye some good will come about from this. unfortunate as it sounds its things like this that usually force politicians to get rid of the red tape and actually do something.

to use more than one plane let alone one would have to take some serious organisation. i doubt that this has been done by just a small terrorist group although it's not impossible. but if the government did know anything i'd hate to think what they were thinking. i mean what would you be able to do about a plane with some 190 people over a populated area.

Just War. Just not sure at whom.

This is authoritative proof that a small group of like-minded individuals can do anything they want.

Everything is fucked. This is going to cause more bloodshed and race hatred.

What's the most disturbing is the coverage of people in the middle east cheering and shit. Who's going to tell them that all the people who just lost their lives were innocent?

Humanity sucks the big one.

Whoever did this must be found. All his minions must be found. And they deserve to die.

If a country harbors them, we should turn that country into a fucking parking lot.

Ok.. vent over.

I've had contact with all my friends currently in the NYC area, and they're all alive. I'm not in NYC now, for those of you who sent AIMs asking if I am ok. I'm fine, I'm in small town X, and things are holding up right here.

Thanks for your concern.

Good to see you're still around and share at least one viewpoint with me . If you're ever coming through the Philadelphia area, let me know. (via email or IRC)

Back to the topic, I agree that we should blow the shit out of someone, but I hope to goodness that its carefully done so as not to make the US look bad.

Oooookay. Let's start thinking a little about this.

Who were they?
This could've been a terrorist attack:[list]

  • Done by one terrorist group.
  • Done by more than one terrorist group that collaborated together.
  • Done by one terrorist group that had ties with an international government.
  • Executed by a some sort of team which was funded by an international government.
  • Planned by the American government itself (very, very far fetched and rather paranoid sounding, but it could happen)

    I don't know how these things work, I haven't really read about them or seen many things about it or.. whatever- so I might sound a little stupid here..

    thankgod the IRA dont have the capabilities to do this or london would be fucked.

    it is suspected very highly that it is ben ladin cos he's been forming allegiances amongst terrorist groups and fucnding their traing. and seeing as it would be VERY hard to find several trained pilots willing to do such a desperate act without some sort of mass organisation i doubt it could be anyone else. i mean he has declared war on america

    Violence begets violence. Kill them and they'll hit you back with their psychoass guerilla warfare or something. There has to be a point where someone says, "alright dudes, PEACE" <- this is the compressed version of the agreement.
