More of the Truth: 9-11

(Caption: This is a photo of the Pentagon lawn taken moments after the airliner struck the building. The piece of aircraft skin in the foreground clearly bears United Airlines markings.)

When I wrote the previous post, I could not remember the address of the very first myth-debunking site that I came across. Titled "9-11 Research," this site appears to be setup with the intention of drawing in unsuspecting conspiracists. If you read the introduction on the index page of the website it appears that the creators of the site disbelieve the "official story."

However, nothing could be further from the truth. While 911myths.com is devoted to hard science and expert analysis, 9-11 Research is devoted to what can be shown of the tragic attack through photos, news reports, and eyewitness accounts.

This site has the largest quantity of unique photographs from 9-11-2001 and the following days that I have seen, plus a comprehensive archive of eyewitness testimony regarding the Boeing 757 that struck the Pentagon and the crash of United Flight 93 (If you haven't seen the movie of the same title, I highly recommend it).

Another site that I couldn't remember is "Debunking 9-11 Conspiracy Theories," which may be an even better science and analysis site than 911myths.com. It contains a huge number of photos, and analysis from world-renowned experts in the fields they are commenting on (whereas, the doctors and experts on the side of "9-11 truth," tend to be from other, non-related fields of research). I highly recommend spending some time at this page.

If you know someone who doubts the "official story," or is be wavering on the brink of conspiracism because of "facts" (oft-repeated lies) put forward by the "9-11 Truth" movement, please send them to these two sites in particular, they are the best of the sites I have discovered:

debunking911.com - maybe my favorite (even though it was created by a self-described "flaming liberal;" just goes to show that even liberals can exercise common sense when they really want to)
911research.com - Please spend some time at this site, especially reading the eyewitness accounts, if you have any doubt at all of the truthfulness of the "official story."
