We could atrribute this to the COVID shots, too.....I guess....when will we read the names of the victims that died or have been harmed.....thank you for this.....wonderful, deep and eye-opening, as usual...🙏🤗
I encourage you to submit what you just wrote as an opinion piece to every newspaper you can think of. They will have three days to contemplate whether or not to publish it.
In 1993 I was sent to the WTC by a former "Great Metropolitan Newspaper" to report on the truck-bombing in the parking garage of the North Tower. I saw the fear on the faces of the people who streamed from the building that day. That fear must have been magnified a million-fold in the souls of those who knew they would die - one way or another - on a bright and clear Tuesday morning, eight years later.
It is impossible to put a label on the actions taken by anyone that day. When fear is that intense, nothing makes sense.
there was no choice really. Either they died in the fire inferno, or they jumped to their deaths. Danger if hight buildings - if this happens to a low building, there would be no deaths. Never understood why people want to live in high-rise, or work there !
I read that from some, nothing remained but such small fragments, that could not be identified. Horror stories of bodies melted onto the building. There is a video from a german professor who studied this and came to the conclusion this was not caused by the plane. The heat was so strong it melted metals. I have not watched the whole film but it sure was worth watching.
In my 27 years as a firefighter, I have been in many situations where it got hot, really hot, in a structure fire. With protective clothing on that can handle 500°F temps for brief periods. I have been burned just before making a quick escape. In those situations, as a trained professional, I was on the edge of panic. The very edge. And I was protected. Anyone who jumped from the towers was no longer in control of their behavior. They jumped because they were hot in a way you will never experience short of being in their shoes. If they are not forgiven by their maker, no one is.
Well said, Mickey - Am wondering about the testimony of someone in the South Tower who related what they saw happening in the North Tower - how did that person survive the complete controlled demolition of the South Tower to tell about it? They had time to take the elevator and get out before the explosions?
Thank you, Will. And yes, eye witness testimonies are notoriously tricky in the best of scenarios. In this case, there was plenty of other trickery happening. So, I left it in the post and added a link for anyone to follow and decide for themselves.
Thank you for according them the dignity and grace their souls merit.
Thank you, my friend. 🙏

Amen to that, Stella, and thank you. 🙏💕

Thank you, MB. I remember the first WTC bombing well and concur... "fear must have been magnified a million-fold" sounds right.
We should talk, Then
I will send you my number over kofi.
You can call me (and spoof your number).
I have a story about it that I know you will appreciate.
I will be home around 7.
Thanks but, with all due respect, I'd rather keep the conversations online.
No problem.

I hear you. That's why I very intentionally opted to only focus on the "jumpers" in this post. Everything else is a massive can of worms.

And thank you for adding in this kind of firsthand knowledge. I'm grateful you go out safe and sound. 🙏

yes, and thanks for the link - Just got this by William Hurt - very touching... https://www.globalresearch.ca/it-took-long-time-face-what-knew-true-about-911/5761325
Thank YOU, Will! Hurt nails it on so many levels. Such a rare blend of nuance, outrage, and awareness.
