Should be interesting. I'm one who believes the so called 'conspiracies' have actually got allot of truth in them. Far to many coincidences for my liking.

Just what I had hoped it wouldn't have been. The BBC throws a question and then gets a Government employee to answer. What a load of horse shit.

The Pentagon makes me laugh. They contradicted themselves at least twice when interviewing the 'Expert'.

Ten years on and the impact of what happened never dulls.

Still remember the day well.

It seems a lot of Americans are convinced something bad will happen today.

I've been glued to Nat Geo nearly every evening this week, some very interesting (and upsetting) TV to watch.

I watched that programme and have written to the BBC demanding a refund of the 60 minutes of my life that were needlessly wasted.

Appalling programme, and a few of the participants were educationally challenged to an unbelievable degree.

One in particular justified her belief in Flight 93 never having crashed by stating that it was not possible to make calls from mobile phones from commercial airlines!

I saw quite a few of them Dave, and unlike the BBC offering above, were on the whole very good.

Lets hope today's remembrance services pass without incident, and RIP to those who lost their lives.

an awful and tragic day, sept 11. A complete waste of so many innocent lives, what did they have to do with the global politics at play. In addition, the subsequent slaughter of so many hundreds of thousands of innocent 'collateral' people in Iraq and Afghanistan (by the missiles of peace) by Bush/Blair goes un-acknlowedged every year. Why the difference i wonder to myself at times..

Couldn't have said it better myself

Horrible, unthinkable and barbaric loss of life 10 years ago today, not forgetting the countless number of lives lost in the subsequent wars, both soldiers and civilians.
