2. George H.W. Bush Met Osama Bin Laden’s Brother on the Morning of 9/11.

It was confirmed by the Washington Post that on September 11, 2001, George H.W. Bush met with Osama Bin Laden’s brother, Shafig Bin Laden, at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel. The meeting was concerning business with the Carlyle Group, a massive investment firm and defence contractor of which both the former president and Osama’s brother are members.

1. BBC and CNN Reported the Collapse of Building 7 Before it Happened.


On the day of the September 11 attacks, BBC correspondent Jane Standley and CNN’s Aaron Brown both reported the collapse of building 7 before it happened. At first this claim was dismissed by the media as a conspiracy theory, but following overwhelming video evidence, the BBC actually admitted to misreporting and offered an explanation on their website. The BBC’s explanation wasn’t received well and attracted a lot of flack, with critics arguing that their statement didn’t address how they knew building 7 was going to collapse.

14 years ago today, the twin towers, along with the comforting sense of freedom and security in the United States, crumbled into a concoction of smoke and terror. Following 9/11 the world underwent a rapid transformation. Western countries adopted a foreign policy of military interventionism, civil rights were willfully surrendered for promises of greater security, andthe new fear of Jihadi terrorism blanketed the minds and hearts of millions. It’s for these reasons that everyone should research what actually happened on that fateful day.On September 11, 2001, a series of four coordinated terrorist attacks targeting the World Trade Centre buildings and the Pentagon resulted in the deaths of almost 3,000 civilians the largest loss of life by a foreign attack on American territory. However, despite the massiveramifications of the attacks, it’s surprising to realize how much people aren’t aware of. For instance, many people are still unaware that a third tower, World Trade Centre building 7, wasn’t hit by a plane but still collapsed in an identical manner to the twin towers. Many people are also unaware that George H.W. Bush met Osama Bin Laden’s brother on the morning of 9/11 and that nano-thermite explosives were found in the debris at Ground Zero.To this day, 9/11 is still a very delicate topic to discuss. It’s necessary to note that this article is not claiming to know all the details of what really happened that day, nor is it aiming to offend anyone. The primary purpose of this article is to make a point that when an event has severe ramifications, it’s essential people do all they can to become informed and educated.

I was watching furious 7 yesterday when I found myself crying ...his death was painful I must say and I wish I could get to meet him before he died at least to say ''thank u for a job well done on the movies he has starred in''

The end of the movie, Fast 7 is touching...

At the beach, Vin diesel, tyrese, ludacris, and Michelle Rodriguez were starring at Paul walker(Paul walker's brother) with a very sad look like, "this is gonna be the last time we will be featuring together in a movie."

* Michelle Rodriguez: This is where he belongs.

*Vin diesel: Home, where he's always belong.

*Tyrese: Things are gonna be different now, smiles...

*Then theme song came in: "It's been a long day without you, my friend And I'll tell you all about it when I see you again. We've come a long way from where we began Oh, I'll tell you all about it when I see you again, When I see you again. oh oh oh" (Charlie puth&Wizkhalifa).

Will always miss him...
