I go back and listen to the Howard Stern Show every year for 9/11 as a tradition.
The jumpers, United 93…shite is mind boggling to this day.

Virtually all of my local firemen died that day since they were among the first to get there.
God rest their souls. Can’t imagine

Not to mention the hellish conditions above the impact zone in the north tower.

I just ran across this on the 25 Years Ago 2001 Xwitter feed. Everything stopped that morning.
That is a good feed, step-by-step. I had forgotten a lot of the rumored stuff that was reported. Like: Its was a helicopter that hit the Pentagon, it was a plane loaded with biological and chemical components that hit the Pentagon. There was an explosion at the Capitol building. An explosion or attack on the White House. A hijacked plane crashed over the ocean. Car bombs......
It was chaos.
ETA: I will say that if you check out that feed it pulls no punches in regards to the trauma. There is a lot of jumper stuff and a lot of graphic detail.

I remember it all too well. It felt like there was no end to the mayhem. After it became clear we were under attack, Fort Knox, where I was stationed, completely locked down. Our civilian workers were there until late in the evening.
I’ll check out that feed.

That's why I try to go back every year and watch live coverage. It is easy to let hindsight take completely over and lose understanding about the chaos and confusion that reigned in the moment.
This is why I have always appreciated this thread every year. The packaged, over-produced stuff is nice for learning and teaching, but it doesn't foster an appreciation for what that day — and the days and weeks following it — was like.

Today needs to be about remembering those who died and honoring their memory. Posting conspiracy theories is doing the opposite of that.
Can it also be about condemning Islam for the scourge it is and calling for their immediate removal from this country?
