I hate Trump with a passion but I somewhat must disagree. In being acts of terror are they same yes. Domestic terror by a cult following a con president saying the election was stolen who somehow managed to be president first time around. Yes. But to the same degree violence wise? No. Was it violent yes but not to The despicable levels of the 9/11 hijackers. Now if a right wing Trump supporting or Republican supporting domestic terror group starts setting off bombs. Or hijacking our airlines. Then get back to me. Again this is rational though coming from someone who hates Trump is a Democrat.
Great video. I am super interested into some of the subjects of 9/11 that aren’t often covered. A lot of the videos don’t have the detail put into them like you. I always look forwards to these types of videos.
Thank God that didn’t happen. It’s a harrowing thought. I paid a visit to the US a month ago for the first time and went to the Capital building, one of the most incredible places I’ve ever been. Can’t imagine the scenes if that actually happened
Since nobody knows exactly what United 93 was aiming for, I've often wondered if a second plane into The Pentagon was a possibility since it was such a massive structure with a large number of people working there.
Most of the intel points to the capital as the projected target which is why it’s always listed first. The terrorists wanted 9/11 to be very symbolic targeting different symbols. The original plot was 10 planes but they determined that would be too complicated to pull off so scaled it down.
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and Ramzi bin al-Shibh both said it was the capital building, the hijackers waited 46 mins to start the hijacking then they headed towards Washington (look at the maps)
Had it been hit, it would have been redone like the Bundestag in Berlin, which was famously destroyed by the Red Army. The picture of a Red Army soldier placing the Soviet flag on the building was the U.S.S.R.'s and is post-Soviet Russia's equivalent to the Iwo JIma photo.
9/11 was supposed to be a much larger attack, with many many planes hitting many many targets all across America. But Al Qaeda decided to shrink it to make it more possible. But if they went through with their original plans. I do believe the Sears Tower wouldve been hit
if they wanted max damage/casualties with 4 planes they probably should have done the sears tower, both world trade towers and the empire state building@@Yorker1998
The other tower probably would have been beyond repair to the point of needing to be demolished. The Deutche Bank across from the towers had to be razed because the collapses damaged and contaminated the building beyond repair.
That's a good question. I have wonder why the military would let 4 highjacked planes to rome free for more then 1 hour and not do anything to stop them. By the time they responded the airplanes reached there targets and flight 93 crashed in a field.
Have you done video of the water evacuation on 9/11? The people with boats of all sizes came together and got people closer to home . Im not sure what body of water it was, I live on the west coast. But people were ferryed to different places. Spontaneous response by the people who saw a need. Very heroic
It was up to each individual pilot-hijacker what the final target was. Hani Hanjour chose to ram American Flight 77 into the Pentagon because it was easier than hitting the White House. If Ziah Jarrah couldn't hit the Capitol, he would have hit the other side of the Pentagon.
Tom Clancy’s book debt of honor shows what would happen if plane hits the us Capitol and it shows the worst case scenario and it’s followed up with executive orders in the aftermath of the attack
My mom was in the US Air Force and knew a couple of pilots that were scrambled during 9/11 and you are right. Most pilots were sent up without armaments so they were expected to fly into the plane.
There was at least one major news network (don't remember which one) that was anticipating a strike on the Capitol when they heard news of Flight 93 approaching. They had a camera positioned and focused on the dome from the west side.
Do you think it's possible that Flight 93's destination could have been the Pentagon? Consider that the first two airplanes struck two buildings of the same complex (World Trade Center) and the Pentagon being such a large structure perhaps Flight 93 was destined for the west side of it after Flight 77 crashed into the eastern side of it?
After watching TMZ's "The Fifth Plane" last night, I'm starting to wonder if Flight 93 was headed for the White House and Flight 23 was actually headed for the Capitol Building.
We can only be thankful that it didn’t happen but it really wouldn’t have changed a whole lot. Mainly it would’ve been for the purpose of symbolism with our center of power being destroyed with maybe a few casualties but other than that not a whole lot would’ve changed. I hope he does a video of the potential fifth plane fight 23 in future video! That’s a really an interesting topic there was even s documentary series about it!
3:00 Pentagon wasn't a glancing blow. The plane allegedly performed a 270 degree corkscrew bank turn leveling off at under fifty feet hitting the light poles before striking the first floor west between Corridors 4 and 5. From 35,000 feet to a perfect descending loop into the first floor by a student pilot with a couple lessons in a Cessna.
Astonishingly enough, the ESB probably wouldve survived from what ive read (although significantly damaged). The towers were amazing, but they were undoubtedly built with iffy construction (due to the PA’s budget). With their tube-frame system they just happened to be extremely vulnerable to the attack that bestowed them. Statue of liberty would’ve been toast, without a doubt.
@@theh0ff58Exactly. The ESB has so many internal supports that it almost definitely would not have collapsed. Worst case scenario might be shearing off the upper part of the building, but most likely would have been a massive hole and of course a major fire that might have rendered the building irreparable.
@@dustinzilbauer7582 Of course. I feel, if anything; due to its cultural signifcance the ESB wouldnt be demolished, even if it met the criteria. yet, at the end of the day were talking ab a completely different attack. I will admit, It is a major mind fuck to think that the towers are still there but not the ESB….
Hmmm... What if the CNN Tower in Chicago was hit with the first plane, and Magic Mountain In Disneyland was hit with the 2nd??? What the hell is your point? 🤬
It depends on whether you're watching on mobile or desktop. A video always seems to load with one second less than what the thumbnail shows, and I am baffled by it.
Apparently there were some strange events occurring at the World Trade Center in the months leading up to 9/11. Like a bunch of construction in the upper floors, as well as blackouts. On top of all that bomb sniffing dogs were apparently removed weeks prior.
Actually , I think Congress was either in session or about to be gravelled in session according to the congressional record of that day. I am not near my PC but will look that up when I am .
To be honest this was the most valuable target but Flight 93 had the least terrorists on board so obviously this was their least important target, the two flights with the terrorists that were the most senior hit the WTC, obviously that was the primary target for them
@@fernanrod9559 regardless Mohamed Atta was the A-Team, the primary target was the World Trade Center, Pentagon was the B-Team, Flight 93 likely targeting the Capital Building was more a consolation prize because it was the only aircraft with 4 terrorists while the others had 5. The passengers on 93 got news about the World Trade Center because of the late departure, and yes 4 terrorists was easier to fight because it was 3 defending the cockpit while one was focused on flying the plane The other flights the passengers wouldn’t have been aware and were cooperating with the terrorists, they didn’t know what was going to happen and historically hijacker’s would use passengers as hostages, not fly into buildings
@@ytzpilotTotally, they wanted to bring down the two buildings a long time ago. I was just saying the main reason f93 failed was because of the delay.
Karma saved the Capitol. The World Trade Center was despised by critics,as Norman Mailer called them "twin towers of Babel" and Paul Fussell called them "dull and witless, expressive only of dumb, raw power." Lewis Mumford despised the Pentagon, writing this in his The Myth of the Machine': "The concrete form of the Pentagon in Washington serves even better than its Soviet counterpart, the Kremlin, as a symbol of totalitarian absolutism: all the more because this particular megastructure combines a pathetically outmoded Renascence plan with the current wasteful and inefficient facilities for mono-transportation by car." But people love the Capitol. Karma dicatted the the one targeted building that everyone loved would be spared.
Strange, considering that the Kremlin (in its present form) was built in the 1490s, replacing old, wooden structures. The Capitol, with its stunning (for the time) hollow cast-iron dome was very elegant for a Victorian building. The Pentagon? THAT I'll buy!
They attempted on flight 93. There was a pilot on board thar they get to the cockpit when they were storming it. They never had the chance because the passengers were fighting the terrorists for the controls which led to the plane being nose dove into the ground.
You should do one on a possible scenario regarding what if United 93 crashed into the White House. A lot of people speculate that the plane was heading for the Capital Building and rule out the White House entirely, mainly because the Capital Building has a big dome that is noticeable. Bin Laden did say he would like to see the White House destroyed, which gives some credence that that was the possible target as that’s where the President lives and does a lot of his day to day work, so if the President isn’t living in the White House for the duration it takes to rebuild and repair the White House, then that would be a predicament that many haven’t really considered. Since the plane never got to its intended target, speculation is all we have regarding which building the terrorists intended to hit.
I think the hijackers waited 45 minutes for a simple reason: turning the plane over Cleveland makes it easier to navigate to Washington, DC, and aim for the Capitol. Ziad Jarrah likely wanted to use the Potomac River and the National Mall to help guide the plane and align the aircraft toward its target. If it hadn't been for the delay, UA93 would've arrived over Washington around 9:30-9:40, roughly the same time AA77 crashed into the Pentagon. The timing was everything because DC would've begun evacuating its buildings. If the plane was hijacked after takeoff, using I-95 would mean dodging low buildings and neighborhoods in DC, making things more complicated for an inexperienced pilot.
I believe there might have been a way to save the North Tower. Here's my perspective: immediately after it was hit, they could have dispatched helicopters to the tower with 5-7 firefighters on each, fully equipped with their gear. As the helicopters hovered above the North Tower, they could have lowered ropes or ziplines for the firefighters to descend. The firefighters would go down first, followed by their gear, and this process could have been repeated with additional helicopters. Given that the impact occurred around floor 90, the firefighters could have reached the affected areas to rescue people and extinguish the fire. With 1 hour and 30 minutes available, there might have been a chance to save the North Tower, although unfortunately for the South Tower, it was done.
The problem with this is the overwhelming amount of smoke and heat gathering to the top. The smoke alone would be a problem for a pilot. Not only all that, but heli pads apparently weren't used very much after a certain time period at the towers. From the pictures I've seen, it also seems pretty small/narrow of a landing, further increasing risk. I think they definitely thought your plan through already.
@@Windwhistle first of I never said they were going to land on the heli pads becuase that was in south tower only, and im talking about north tower here. Also the pilot would see because he would be flying top of the north tower and thats when they send down those ropes they have down where the firefighters would go down. So it could've worked that way for north tower only.
@@SirCile Again, how are you not a TOP white house advisor?! With your astute and thorough intellect you could save SOOOOOOOOO many American lives!!! I would vote you president!!!
I guess it depends, the delays screwed the terrorists over. The government knew the plane was coming and around when it would hit, so the White House and I think the Capitol too had been evacuated. The Speaker of the House was also scuttled away in a helicopter to protect the line of succession.
To my understanding the two F16s that could've shot down flight 93 both had 120 rounds of training ammunition loaded into their front mounted gatling guns. The story of them having to crash their jets into the flight 93 came from the fact that the ammunition was for weight balancing but I don't buy this explanation. Using the training ammunition which very well could've shot down the plane and is a much better alternative to a suicidally flying their jets into flight 93.
Many people ask why the hijackers didn’t wait until noon, during a session of congress or later in the day to strike - in order to inflict greater human suffering and victims lost due to more people at work. The simple reason is that they wanted as few passengers onboard as possible to minimize the risk of revolt or resistance and the minimum amount of general airport traffic to reduce the risk of delays on the ground, that’s the reason they chose a Tuesday morning (the least busy day and hour of departing air travel per week - which the extremely low load factors of all 4 planes prove) I think the most important thing was the symbolism of hitting America and spectacle of live broadcast of the events on TV - not maximizing casualties (even if that of course was important, but it wouldn’t justify increasing the risk of failure - as long as it was 1000+ victims it didn’t matter if 3000 or 10 000 died, the message, advertisement and intended reaction was already achieved)
According to eyewitnesses the Plane that struck the Pentagon was sort of skipping up and down on the ground before it made contact. Which would explain in the partial photo the image of the plane taking off.
I don’t think a lot of people would have been in there I believe the capitol building was evacuated on September 11th. I’m thinking it would have been a lot like the pentagon & we wouldn’t have a story of heroes taking over the plane that was hijacked & we wouldn’t know where shanksville pa was
they were a symbol of america’s strength, power, and finance. it was also chosen, because they were the 2 tallest buildings in america, they knew there would be a lot of people inside of them, so there would be many casualties.
If there was supposed to be fifth Hijacker so he could of overpowering the passengers and crews but The fifth hijacker could not Pass USA because his passport was denied and only 19 hijackers sucessfully enter usa
Totally disagree with your take on this. If the capital had been hit this absolutely would have changed things . This is the seat of our government, a lot more symbolic of a target for terrorists. Any target in D.C. would have made things much different. If the capital was hit I disagree with you that the twin towers would still be the man story. Both would be a major story but the capital would be much more potent of a story for the country as a whole.

Lewis Mumford despised the Pentagon, writing this in his The Myth of the Machine': "The concrete form of the Pentagon in Washington serves even better than its Soviet counterpart, the Kremlin, as a symbol of totalitarian absolutism: all the more because this particular megastructure combines a pathetically outmoded Renascence plan with the current wasteful and inefficient facilities for mono-transportation by car."

It's not, they're two different buildings
I guess it depends, the delays screwed the terrorists over. The government knew the plane was coming and around when it would hit, so the White House and I think the Capitol too had been evacuated. The Speaker of the House was also scuttled away in a helicopter to protect the line of succession.
To my understanding the two F16s that could've shot down flight 93 both had 120 rounds of training ammunition loaded into their front mounted gatling guns. The story of them having to crash their jets into the flight 93 came from the fact that the ammunition was for weight balancing but I don't buy this explanation. Using the training ammunition which very well could've shot down the plane and is a much better alternative to a suicidally flying their jets into flight 93.
Many people ask why the hijackers didn’t wait until noon, during a session of congress or later in the day to strike - in order to inflict greater human suffering and victims lost due to more people at work.
The simple reason is that they wanted as few passengers onboard as possible to minimize the risk of revolt or resistance and the minimum amount of general airport traffic to reduce the risk of delays on the ground, that’s the reason they chose a Tuesday morning (the least busy day and hour of departing air travel per week - which the extremely low load factors of all 4 planes prove)
I think the most important thing was the symbolism of hitting America and spectacle of live broadcast of the events on TV - not maximizing casualties (even if that of course was important, but it wouldn’t justify increasing the risk of failure - as long as it was 1000+ victims it didn’t matter if 3000 or 10 000 died, the message, advertisement and intended reaction was already achieved)
What are you, nuts? Come on!
According to eyewitnesses the Plane that struck the Pentagon was sort of skipping up and down on the ground before it made contact. Which would explain in the partial photo the image of the plane taking off.
Skipping up and down on the ground? Either you’re high, glowing or both. Even stupid people know that is bs.
year 2077 Capitol hill Broken ☢️ Death R.I.P sad 😔 GOODBYE TRUE
Warning dangerous
year 2077 Capitol hill ☢️ TRUE
I love your videos but these 9/11 ones are a little depressing 😢
You don’t have to watch them.
Zoloft is a hell of a drug...
I don’t think a lot of people would have been in there I believe the capitol building was evacuated on September 11th. I’m thinking it would have been a lot like the pentagon & we wouldn’t have a story of heroes taking over the plane that was hijacked & we wouldn’t know where shanksville pa was
I always wanna know why we’re the twin towers chosen when there just buildings?
they were a symbol of america’s strength, power, and finance. it was also chosen, because they were the 2 tallest buildings in america, they knew there would be a lot of people inside of them, so there would be many casualties.
The 2 companies that had the biggest losses between them were both financial companies. Only 2 companies lost about 968 people.
@@salamisumo2 the spires shouldn’t count
Dude look up Bojinka plot
What if the planes were bigger? What if they hit lower? What if they hit later in the day? What if what if what if
If "if's and buts" were candy & nuts... we'd all have a Merry Christmas!
This Video is 9:11 minutes long...
And your point is?
If there was supposed to be fifth Hijacker so he could of overpowering the passengers and crews but The fifth hijacker could not Pass USA because his passport was denied and only 19 hijackers sucessfully enter usa
Then even more people in other parts of the world would have had to die. /the war-machine would have gone Brrrr................
Once the pentagon was hit the capitol was immediately evacuated
The cowards ran.
Thank you!
@@ZT-vr4wzThe people/"cowards" should have stayed to "fight off" the crashing plane??? By your logic... 😂😂😂
Then there would’ve been 2 terrorist attacks at the Capitol. 9/11 and 1/6.
Jan 6th 2021 came close.
Not really were people everywhere in DC afraid for their lives. Manhattan, especially ground zero was a warzone more like the Ukraine.
Republicans would've cheered.
Totally disagree with your take on this. If the capital had been hit this absolutely would have changed things . This is the seat of our government, a lot more symbolic of a target for terrorists. Any target in D.C. would have made things much different. If the capital was hit I disagree with you that the twin towers would still be the man story. Both would be a major story but the capital would be much more potent of a story for the country as a whole.
What if the US government actually cared about its citizens more than the taxes they pay? We’ll never know.
