About Loose Change
Patricia Zavaleta

Recently I viewed the documentary "loose change" written and directed by Dylan Avery. This documentary claims that the U.S. government was behind the 9/11 tragedy where many lives were lost. I agree with the documentaries accusations; from the conspiracy behind Pentagon, World Trade Center, and finally flight 93. There explanations for 9/11 are simple; the attacks were a series of cleverly planned events carried out by our U.S. government not the result of terrorism as most Americans have been lead to believe.

The Pentagon was one of few events on 9/11 that just did not seem to add up. After watching loose change I can see why. The film Claims that American Airlines Flight 77 could have not possibly crashed into the Pentagon; the damages left on the building did not match one of a commercial airline. The damages seemed more to have matched a cruise missile or a smaller military aircraft. The film proves this by examining the debris; the only thing is that there was too little if not no debris left behind. Further more, the film states that the debris left behind are inconsistent with other commercial airplane crashes, and even its corresponding parts do not match. There was something clearly going on that day that only the government had knowledge of. For example, there were tapes that nearby neighbors, such as the Sheraton hotel, had captured on it surveillance camera's. You would think that the government would play these tapes to the public to shut those none believers up or at least for those who lost a loved one on flight 77, but instead minutes after the attacks on the Pentagon F.B.I. agents were sent over to pick the tapes up and tell those who had seen or watched the events to keep quit.
All in all I just can't help but agree with the film.

Secondly, the World Trade Center, one could have not even come to terms with those two beautiful building coming down the way they did. That's because they should have not! The film gives

    How many of you can still remember exactly where you was on 9/11? I remember I was in my 2nd grade classroom and hearing over the intercom that our teachers needed to turn on the T.V. As we began watching the horrific events that was taking place and yet to take place, we was all confused on what was happening, and why. We just knew what we was watching was not normal. The World Trade Center attacks were part of a strategic plan of a terrorist group al-Qaeda. Throughout the speech, I will be mapping out the attacks as they unraveled. Four planes were hijacked, each intended for different targets. According to the New York Times, the flights that were hijacked included American Airlines Flight 11, United Airlines Flight 175, American Airlines 77, and United Airlines Flight 93 (Schememann A1.)…

    There are many 9/11 Conspiracy Theories. Sophists trust that the world trade center buildings were decimated by boms, phone calls from the planes were concocted and that President George W. Bush, behind closed doors, profited from the attacks. Abounding numbers of people hypothesize that the Twin Towers were blown down with explosives in selected locations. Some spectators racall hearing explosions wihtin the building as they attempted to escape.…

    I think that 9/11 could definitely be an “inside job” and this is why. First point is why and the world would all this happen after the country loses an insane amount of money. You don’t just lose 2.3 Trillion dollars especially being America the big bad country. I think that someone was blackmailing us with information soldiers something along those lines and gave it to someone. Obviously if everyone found out about this money the country would be upset people would be fired and everyone would go crazy so why not hide it. Second reason is why were no high government officials in the building when it collapsed. Did they all go out to lunch or have a dentist appointment. Third how in the world does an amazingly strong technologically advanced building just collapse. I can see the top part falling over like a tree but you don't cut down a tree from a side like a lumberjack and the whole tree fall down destroying the stump. That's just not how gravity works the part of the building above where the plane hit did not have the inertia to take out the tallest and strongest skyscraper in the country. Also if you watch the videos in the collapse it goes outwards in a very strange way. Also a window 20 stories down just blew out for no reason none of the others did. I guess that's enough of my…

Immediately after the attacks on the World Trade Centres North and South, many conspiracy theories surfaced about what actually happened on that tragic day. There are some true facts we know; the time that flight 11 flew into the North building, that flight 175 followed closely behind making its way into the South building.

    ZERO: An Investigation of 9/11 covers these theories in an extreme controversially opinionated argument. The documentary in short explains that 9/11 was set up by the government, most likely in a way to foreshadow war. It also says the Twin Towers were demolished by explosives that were smuggled into the building. They further stated that the molten metal in the ashy ruins is the proof of the explosives. However this is an example of a logical fallacy because there are several different things that could…

    9/11 - the Conspiracy

    The day of September 11th, 2001 the world witnessed with disbelief as the World Trade Center in New York City came crashing down. The shock the attacks generated and the some 3,000 or more people it killed made it one of the brutal attacks in history. One may only wonder how such a grand scaled attack could be carried through. Although controversial, evidence suggests that the September 11th attacks in 2001 were an inside job and the statements of the Bush administration following them were a fabricated truth that many people believed. Unfortunately the tragic event has scarred the lives of many people globally and changed the course of the near future.[1]…

    It is very possible that the government intervened in some of these events. One event that does not make complete sense is 9/11. From the naked eye, it looks like one of the biggest terrorist attacks on America, with many American lives passing due to Al Qaeda’s terror. However, there are a plethora of other details lying beneath the surface of what the government told us. A very well known theory includes that the heat emitted from jet fuel cannot produce enough heat to melt the steel beams in the building (The 11 Most Compelling 9/11 Conspiracy Theories3). NORAD (North American Aerospace Defense Command) generals said that they knew of the hijackings in time to gather fighter jets, which raises questions (The 11 Most Compelling 9/11 Conspiracy Theories2). There is a plethora of evidence supporting that the attack on 9/11 was potentially an inside job, with people going as far to say that the collapsing of the towers was similar to that of a controlled demolition (The 11 Most Compelling 9/11 Conspiracy Theories3). With so much evidence, it is hard to deny that the government possibly tampered with the worst terror attack since the attack on Pearl…

    The events that occurred on September 11, 2001 were also viewed as possible acts of conspiracy. The idea of a plane deviating from its course without action from any government agency in today’s modern technology is not possible. These planes were traveling at a rate of six hundred miles an hour. For them to hit their intended targets the government agencies were negligent.…

    The blame for the intelligence failure of 9/11 can go in any direction. The Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), the Federal Bureau of investigations (FBI), the Department of Transportation (DOT)/ Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), and the National Security Agency (NSA) all had issues in their protocols and policies. The Government, as a whole, failed to connect the dots on all intelligence and evidence that was available. Many of the national agencies and departments’ errors ultimately led to astronomical…

    These poor people one can only imagine what they've been through…the stories they'll spin. “It was, as the sequence of horror first began to unfold across New York's skyline, initially unbelievable. As if in some far-fetched Hollywood disaster movie, reports came in of an explosion at the World Trade Center, possibly caused by a plane. Then, as the cameras arrived and the live television commentary began, another plane seemed to come from nowhere. The second plane curved in from the west and appeared to aim straight at the second tower and hit it just below the level of the first impact... it was being aimed deliberately at the target…” I started to drone out after that, they speak with outside information, second hand experiences, accurate yet dull facts. After all the weren't in the building, they didn’t experience the shock, the force. They will never understand, and we will never…

    On a beautiful Tuesday morning, the city of New York was woken up by one plane striking the north tower of the World Trade Center, near the 80th floor trapping hundreds of people on the above floors. It left a gaping hole in the side instantly killing anyone who was near the 80th floor. This was very bad because anyone above the 80th floor would be trapped and it would be very hard for rescuers to get to them.…
