More like the Hijackers :p
Actually not, given they did the killing. But I all find the topic rather b.s. since every witness to the crime died in a fiery ball of death within an hour or so of that incident. Hardly the best witness situation, really -- nobody is left to really corroborate the story. Certainly not with a stopwatch timed to all other 9/11 victims' deaths.

There isn't even a body to do an autopsy on for the predicted moment that he died for that matter.

It's completely tragic for what happened. But when people start making statements like "He was the first victim of 9/11" when clearly all the evidence has been vaporized?

I know humanity loves to tell a narrative that makes things seem more significant and important than they really are. But filling in the blanks when there are huge unknowns -- instead of just outright saying "Well, we cannot be entirely sure" -- is far a more mythological approach than a factual one.

So I think it's a fair question to say, "Well, prove it then." And it can't be done. That's not necessarily disrespectful at all -- especially with the truth.

but myth inspires and moves the sheep, most do prefer the blue pill and facts eventually all become myths
