ABSTRACT

The article presents an examination into the assertions and evidence suggesting that the dominant narrative behind the causes of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks are false. The author presents eight different areas of evidence against the established understanding of the events and its consequences. Subjects discussed include the theory of explosives used on the World Trade Towers in New York City, the failure of the military defense procedures within U.S. airspace, and the lack of wreckage near the Pentagon crash site. Concluding comments are also given analyzing the emotional responses given by audiences reacting to alternative theories to the 9/11 events.
