Watching this on More4, still very emotional nearly 17 years on.

There was an outcry at that picture being shown around the world ... Do you think it was wrong and why??

Do you think it was right to show it and why?

Interested to hear opinions.

Yeah it was right to be shown it’s true fact and a major terror attack and just to prove the problem that was coming ahead. It has been here and security forces all over the U.K. USA 0.Z France Sweden are facing a major problem daily.

Fucking tragic. Such a powerful image.

I think it brings it home to anyone with human decency that these things aren't a quick, painless death, and the consequences are greater than any imaginable on more people than you think. I think it's not a good image for those who knew the man, as each time it's seen it's gotta break them.

Yep. I watched it a few years ago and I remember. Sad beyond belief.

Choosing your own death must be one of the hardest yet simplest decisions. Taking your life and having control of your end or having it taken and possibly suffer the most intense pain and mental torture whilst looking for an escape.

I do think it's correct, so many atrocities happen around the world and we only hear or see what is shown on the media, I once had the privilege of working with a man who worked for itn during the genocide in Africa, the Lockerbie bombing ect and some of the stories are unbelievable, so in some cases yes the death of man by man should be shared less never forget.

As some might know I'm someone who believes the what, who and how of what happened that day entail a lot more than we've been publically told.

But I agree with everyone else, we all agree it was awful, for everyone who perished and for those who were compelled to jump rather than be in the building.

I don't know about this documentary? I take it it is about the people who jumped from the buildings?

I don't know if this is the right place to say, but a couple of thoughts amongst others which have stuck with me: People were hanging out of windows with one hand and taking clothes off with the other. There was also a woman on the phone with family, saying she's getting out, going down stairs. 2 floors down later and she too jumped...

I also didn't know so many firefighters died...

I think it being aired again is needed to remember what happened that day.

I for one, like most people remember where I was when i heard that Diana had died, and where and what I was doing on that trajic day when the whole world watched the second tower being hit live in tv. I remember as if it were yesterday for both.

I can only ever imagine what horror those poor men and women must have gone through that morning.. for the people that survived, their guilt.. for the people who died, their desperation.

No one knows what they would do faced with that situation, was jumping the split second to have an extra 10 seconds of life before death? Did they jump in panic and regret it the second their foot left the shelf? No one will ever know.

I personally think all those souls who did jump were brave!

Brave to make the decision to take their life in the hope that by some miracle they “may” “possibly” survive ... in the face of impending death...

They did not commit suicide in my eyes even if the decision was theirs in the end... they ALL died by the despicable act or terrorism. And the desperate act of self preservation.

I watch all the programmes related to 911 every year, if nothing more than to remember I’m a lucky one, I still walk this earth.. and to respect the fact that thousands of innocent people had that chance taken from them that very sad day.

As well as those who died on the day, hundreds or even thousands who were in the vicinity either as bystanders or emergency services have died in the years since as a direct result of what they were breathing in that day.

I remember it well, I was only 19 and called in at my grandma's on my way home from work and it was on the news, I thought it was the trailer for a new action movie at first till it dawned on me it was real. The course of millions of lives all over the world changed on 9/11 and the ripples of it will carry on for decades to come.

I remember watching it live on BBC News as the 2nd plane hit the tower. Later, it dawned on me I had just watched mass murder live on my telly. I hope never to see anything like it again.

I'm in two minds about the imagery. It must be very difficult for the family of the victim.

Plenty images of suffering as a result of military action in places like Syria, Afghanistan are sanitised and never see the light of day.

Re the conspiracy theory, no, I do not believe it. But that is not to say the idea isn't credible - just google "Operation Northwood" to see what heinous false-flag plots the US state is capable of dreaming up.

I read that the first firefighter to be killed was killed by a falling body.

Images like that remind of the price paid by real,ordinary people,who were not involved in any conspiracy theories or international machinations.

Even if any solid new evidence has come to light to prove any of these conspiracy theories,why show an image like that now? What can that add to the investigation?

Aside from the conspiracy theories and endless conjecture, the fact remains alot of people were innocently killed by the direct actions of others. And if you are ever going to learn from such a sorry state of affairs, you need to face up to the realities of what that actually means, however upsetting it may be. Because for it to happen again would be even more upsetting.

Plenty images of suffering as a result of military action in places like Syria, Afghanistan are sanitised and never see the light of day.

That's because we in the west don't care if its brown people being killed same as we care when its us

How else do you explain this annual mourning on 9/11 while elsewhere in the world thousands of deaths barely raises a ripple with us?

Iv never been into conspiracy theories but this one seems kinda suspicious if you just think for yourself instead of what the news said. The man who owned the towers who was known for always being at work every morning didnt show up that day, his son who was due in a meeting that morning also didnt show up and the same for his daughter aswell, any demolition expect will tell you that both towers free fell in a controlled manner, if they fell naturally then they would have fell over to the side destroying everything around them and I dont think you need to be an expert to see this for yourself, building seven also fell for some reason which had basically no damage fell also in a controlled way... also the bbc news reported live that building seven had collapsed but could clearly still be seen standing in the background and didnt fall till later, the planes exploded in fireballs and the buildings reduced to rubble with people saying that not even tables and chairs or file cabinets could be found in one piece but still they found a passport and it just so happens to belong to a terrorist, the security footage released afterwards from the airport claiming that it shows the terrorists checking in that morning had the bottom of the screen cropped out which has to be done manually and is a legal requirement and it usualy shows the numbers running with time and date and location which means that the images could come from anywhere anytime, the steel rods sticking up from the rubble were all cut at an angle which again any demolition expert will say has to be cut prior to demolition as without the cuts they wont fall, those rods were taken away almost immediately after the collapse to be sold and shipped to china as scrap which is illegal as the site should have been sealed off the same as a crime scene and would have shown evidence of being tampered with so that only suggests they were covering their tracks, countless eye witness statements that contradict the "official" report... and many more.

So much stuff about it smells like shite

911 is set to become an event which people have differing opinions on. Like the assassination of JFK. I think the time has passed to try and censor those opinions as being in some way distasteful or disrespectful. They aren't. You can believe there was a degree of US government involvement and still share in remembering the tragedy which it was and honouring the dead.

I personally appreciate that there's a broad church here in the way people remember the event. People could have lost a loved one in the catastrophe and hold a "conspiratorial" view about it. I think they should be allowed to sit and grieve with all the others. They may not need to convert others and they may not want to be converted either. They just want to say what they personally think and share what the date means to them and that's all. This is simply what 911 will be to people going forward and I'm ok with accepting that. I don't need to fight over it

"A terror attack by the US government.and you know this for a fact

The easiest way to manipulate people is by fear suppose your theroy is correct then who really started ww1 and ww2

Look into it and you'll find out.

Agreed. The USA is not innocent, U believe it is corrupt and a lot of groups were targeted/scapegoated.

Osama Bin Laden was trained by the USA... They can make us believe what they want us too.

I started this thread out of respect for the poor people who lost their lives during 9/11 ... Not to argue about who was to blame perhaps this isn’t the place to discuss it then if you feel that strong obviously you are going to get different views especially when comments like the us government killed thousands of innocent people not at all. The thread was to show respect to the people who died and the familes who lost love ones . If you want to talk about who was to blame . Maybe start another thread and leave this one too the ones who have sympathy for those who died "

And over 70 police officers too. The death toll rises each day. At present 2500 ground zero workers have cancer. The cancer rates of police officers who attended the scene have soared way past normal figures.

IMO the easiest things to debunk are some of the official stories we get told. Nothing more than crazy theories if not outright lies some of them, debunked with a few facts that get dug up, the facts that don't get reported much but are there.

Even the found passport alone should be enough to make a rational person think that's odd.

I don't know how it got there but I don't consider it a sign of mental illness to think it possible it was placed there, and the holder killed beforehand. It might not be that but I see the logic in it. I don't see the logic in dismissing that out of hand yet clinging to the belief it fell out of the plane, and also happened to belong to one of the alleged terrorists rather than any other passenger.

I think it's absolutely necessary to show it - because it underlines what it is so so easy to forget - that first and foremost, regardless of what happened afterwards, this was and is primarily a human - not political - tragedy.

Every one of those people that died was an individual. A person, with a family.

When people start talking numbers, the impact is lessened, it becomes just another statistic. It becomes abstract. People forget about the humanity involved in it and start arguing about the politics.

It's the same with the holocaust, or the people that have died in wars, or the people that die in natural disasters, famine, through sanctions or whatever - we hear a number and our brains cannot comprehend or process what that actually means.

Regardless of who actually perpetrated the atrocity, the important thing is actually that individual story - because that's what makes it 'real'

I would of thought the US would have no interest in collecting exact figures on civilian deaths as it has no benefit and doesn't read well back home .

Have you got a link for that information please?

Google it. Wiki it

I did, was shit at trying to find it so asked you to show me where I can find the correct info

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Civilian_casualties_in_the_war_in_Afghanistan_(2001%E2%80%93present)

https://www.newstalk.com/The-War-on-Terror-has-killed-13-million-people-report-finds

I found these but none with 20 million on

Maybe I explained it wrong

The us government has killed 20 million at least since the end of ww2 not since the end of 9/11

They have only killed 2 million since the end of 9/11

But that wasn't what I was quoting you to ask for links to where you got your info from.

According to the ones I have read it is 1.3 million , which is bad enough but that isn't 2 million

I'd go as far as say they lie about the figures and cover them up

Not that they really have to as the public really don't care

Let's not forget the earlier 9/11.

September 11, 1973, when the CIA and Australian intelligence service combined to overthrow the government of Chile and install the fascist dictator Pinochet.

130,00 arrested within 3 years, torture widespread, political enemies executed and a death toll estimated in tens of thousands.

No worries. I read more of the second link which said 1.3 but it could be more too...which doesn't mean there is of course.

I doubt if we will find out the true amount anyway...be that higher or lower

"If people are going to join in on the discussion , don't attack people for their views as it is against forum rules"

And mixing a sad and tragic event on a site which is predominantly filled with sexual content makes a lot of sense too, and pays much respect to the victims and their families; yes, of course it does! There are more appropriate platforms.

Feel free to use them. It’s forum to be used for any subject, nobody is forced to read them or comment.

It's the arguing guys... the arguing is disrespectful. *On both sides* Just leave it be. Some people are convinced by the official story. Some aren't. Just express your opinion, honour the deceased and injured, and leave it at that.

If you want to try and persuade others that your view of events is superior to theirs maybe start a new thread. That's not me being bossy or trying to impose forum rules or anything. That's just respectful

And here’s us thinking fab might be filled with titillation. Isn’t Facebook meant for discussing doom/gloom or telling all your so called mates that you burnt your toast this morning? Whilst we fully appreciate that a forum is open for most topics, have to question the mind set of someone logging into a swinging site to discuss death, mortality and so called respect to both the deceased and their families. I’m sure they’d all be delighted to know they have your support given the type of site this is. Jesus.

Yep well aware of that, but most of your statements are filled with remarks like not sure, maybe this, maybe that. Just providing the clarity you quite clearly need. A simple thank you would have sufficed

Is the mindset of someone posting about things you don't like any better than the mindset of someone who doesn't like the topic yet posts on it anyway? Surely you've got better things to do than tell people you don't like their thread topic? I mean, you could always start a thread on a topic you feel is more suited to the platform as that seems something you're quite passionate about.

That's a popular atheist meme rather than a truism imo. Whilst I agree that it's undoubtedly the case that most people misinterpret religion through a superstitious lens, in particular the monsters behind 911, that for me is a response to the emergence of the faiths, not their cause. Their cause is a much more complicated issue imo.

Think of the "religion was devised by scheming tricksters who wanted to control and manipulate us" as just another whacky conspiracy theory.

The post above, thumbs up. I didn't want to quote it to save space.

I had a look for a little information a couple of days ago, regarding people who were jumping.

First, I was quite alarmed, typing in google, the 4th most popular option was for graphic images of the remains of people after impact. That can't all be for research purposes, I conclude that most people searching specifically for graphic images are doing so just to have a big gawk. Surprised how many it seems to be.

I was looking to see again, people were hanging out of windows and some were taking clothes off, like trousers. Its just bizarre.

Just to warn that unfortunately any image search for jumpers will also retrieve very graphic images in the thumbnails too...

Something else that surprised me was a plan diagram outlining the WTC buildings with dots all around signifying locations where bodies landed. There were so many. But more surprising was how far some of them landed, a few measures at over 1,000 feet away - or over 0.2 miles!

For comparison, the height of the towers not inc spires were around 1368 feet.

I have no thoughts on why, how, or what right now, it just took me by surprise if that diagram is accurate, one body was found to have impacted about 1132 feet from the building.
