Dennis · September 11, 2001, 09:36 AM

Reports of a large, commercial aircraft crash about 80 miles southeast of Pittsburg PA. Not know if related to current crisis.

Reports of car bomb near State Department now being denied by some (un-named) sources.

Reports of Pentagon collapsing apparently not true. Reference to damage from first plane impact.

F-16 now seen flying air cover over Washington DC

DC · September 11, 2001, 09:36 AM

Hijacked plane crashed near Somerset county airport, near Pittsburg.
Not known if related

Ironbarr · September 11, 2001, 09:37 AM

thus, it begins.

George Hill · September 11, 2001, 09:37 AM

Fighter wings have been scrambled in several major cities.

DC · September 11, 2001, 09:39 AM

F16's flying aircover over Washington, DC!!!

Jesus!

dischord · September 11, 2001, 09:42 AM

Fox reports the Pitt plane crash was the hijacked AA flight headed to DC. No word on whether it was shot down.

Horny Toad · September 11, 2001, 09:43 AM

Hopefully with these "distractions", everybody is keeping an eye on all of those COSCO container ships.......

buzz_knox · September 11, 2001, 09:44 AM

There are reports that there is one more plane still airborne. They are considering shooting it down. No link yet.

tyro · September 11, 2001, 09:44 AM

Both towers have collapsed.

Dennis · September 11, 2001, 09:45 AM

Katie Couric and Tom Brockaw argue on live TV.

(paraphrased)

Brockaw condemns "failure of intelligence" and predicts heads will roll.

Couric notes we live in a free society and total knowledge and intelligence is not possible.

Argument continued until break for on-scene reporting.

Note: Brockaw's full of crap. We have no way of knowing, at the moment, WHAT the intelligence community knew, what they reported (or to whom), and who ignored what was reported.

This is not the time for unfounded, biased, self-serving, subjective speculation.
----

Brockow predicts America will change "profoundly" because of this attack. (He's implying further control, etc.)

Dennis · September 11, 2001, 09:46 AM

San Antonio, TX:

All federal facilities, all military facitiies have been closed. All non-essential personnel have been sent home. Facilities closed to all non-essential personnel.

Dangus · September 11, 2001, 09:49 AM

My sister was at Ohare yesterday and the security was VERY intense. I suspect we had some idea something was gonna happen. I bet Israel warned us and we didn't have time to set up enough measures to be safe. Israel probably has lists. Any bets on how many people on those lists live through the week?

Dennis · September 11, 2001, 09:50 AM

Again, report of car bomb at State Department denied. At this time, the car bomb is considered a false report.

CPR · September 11, 2001, 09:50 AM

Greensboro, NC. We've been told to stay AWAY from the airport. Kinda tough since I live and work near it.

One of the planes that hit the WTC originated from L.A.

twoblink · September 11, 2001, 09:52 AM

Hmm..

My first conspiratorial skepticism...

We bombed ourselves so we can get $8Trillion for a missile defense fund..

But that wouldn't have helped in this case..

I'm thinking, swimming... great activity for today...

Hmm.. I hope the riots don't start... Guess who's got all his guns loaded right now, as an anti-riot act.....

VERY sad day. We must remain calm and not speculate and do anything stupid until we know who/what we're dealing with. This is an abomination.

Time for prayers for the victims.

Dennis · September 11, 2001, 09:53 AM

FBI reports that FAA indicates a United Airlines aircraft has crashed at Camp David. Report not yet confirmed.

Marshal · September 11, 2001, 09:54 AM

Thanks to all who are posting facts. I cannot get through to even local news sources, and I have no radio or tv available. We must all pray for the souls of the innocent who have died and been injured today, and their families.

Drundel · September 11, 2001, 09:56 AM

I too want to thank y'all for posting facts. I have no TV or radio in my office and just about all the new sites I know are down. Thanks for keeping the rest of us up to date.

Dennis · September 11, 2001, 09:56 AM

The second plane to hit the World Trade Center originated in Boston, was diverted to JFK (apparently by terrorists) and then swerved into the second WTC building. The destination originally was Los Angeles (destination - not origin). That means there was much more fuel onboard than if it had been near the end of its flight....

Report of Capitol under attack apparently is false.

Report of car bomb at State Dept apparently false.

Betty · September 11, 2001, 09:57 AM

Today is the anniversary of the Camp David Accords / between the Palestinians and Israelies.
