World Trade Center-Plane Crash

Do something useful!!

Go donate blood. They will need it! Go on. Off with you. You can do more good that way than by sitting here. :)
 
I just keep waiting on the next shoe to drop. I don't think it's over yet.
 
US Security operations speculates that Osama Bin Laden is the only one with the resources to pull this off...
 
While we sit in our homes watching on TV, cities everywhere are preparing........My husband is a Police Officer and was off today .....they just called him in .....they are barracading downtown Cincinnati............preparing for the worst..it might sound silly but I want to go get my children from school..........who knows what is going to happen next :(

Actually the Sears Tower was always taller than the WTC.

But I believe there is a building in South Asia that is the tallest in the world.....

Sorry, I'm messed up. I think I actually knew that, or maybe I did think they were taller. Thank you.

Dill, they just said on MSNBC that they estimate 1,000 employees in each tower at that time of day. They said they Trade Center had 5,000 visitors a day. They have no way of knowing exactly how many visitors were there at that time.
 
I just heard from a friend. He works in the US Air Force, and is based in Germany. He lives off base, and can not get on base. They locked down his entire base, and all he has heard is that they are gearing up to attack the terrorists.

I will keep you posted as I hear more from him.
 
The Israelis have evacuated all their embassies worldwide. How terrifying for the families. In the military, we go through NEO (non-combatant evacuation operations) briefings, but you never think you might have to be neo-ed! I wonder...

that doesn't sound silly to me at all. I want to go pick up my son too... go home and hunker down.
 
His newest message:


it is very hostile over here right now.
nothing yet. just got out of a safety briefing though. it is not looking good. we have to pack our field gear and be ready to go within 1/2 hour notice
 
UA flight 175 Boston to LAX was the other UA airliner hijacked, but they don't know where or what has happened to it.

Bin Laden recently (a couple of weeks ago) reportedly boasted of a coming attack of unprecedented nature.
 
MSNBC is reporting that each building contained 10,000 people this morning...


I have a friend flying from Boston to Los Angeles this morning...I don't know her flight number and I can't get a hold of anyone whom might know...


AAghh...and I'm just one small person worried, sad and sick.
 
My father is in Buffalo
My brother works at the airport here

Please God, no more
 
Ok, ignore me, I just have to vent for a few seconds. I can not contact anyone. Every fucking phone is busy or just rings.
 
They're shutting down all major towers in Chicago, or so I've heard, too.

They're calling this a proclamation of war on ABC. Makes sense... they're attacking America's symbols. Think about it: The WTC, the Pentagon. I've also heard from someone in my neighborhood that a plane crashed into Camp David as well?

Actually they said 10,000 throughout a day, 1,000 estimated at that time of day.


Adoratice and TN Vixen, my husband was walking out the door to work when this happened and I wouldn't let him go. I'm scared personally. Today happened to be a 1/2 day for our schools, so my son is home too, and I'm very glad.
