Roger and Lisa were running late. They were employed by Silverstein Properties at the time of the September 11 attacks, working in temporary offices in the North Tower. Sharon also played a role in the family business, with two of his three children serving as executives at the company. Video link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sVKiu9Su6Ls

After almost 25 years now, there are more things we still can learn about that day. Silverstein had signed a 99-year lease for the World Trade Center complex just weeks before the attacks. Silverstein has stated that he typically attended meetings at the World Trade Center every morning. However, on 9/11, he did not go to the office due to a medical appointment. This detail has frequently resurfaced in documentaries, news reports, and online discussions as people revisit the events of that tragic day.

    Sure. But it fit his MO and other intelligence data, so there’s no reason to doubt the claim.

    Trying to replace a secret conspiracy with a different secret conspiracy that involves faking a secret conspiracy is just overly complicated for no reason, and only distracts from the actual issues around the cause of 9/11.

    But no, it was definitely not the case that our intelligence services failed to evaluate a novel threat correctly, failed to properly prioritize it as a result which caused delayed responses, and that our air defense system was caught flat footed because the US is essentially isolated so readiness isn’t a priority.
    Definitely not. If anything, the whole thing is actually evidence that the US is so competent that the whole thing can be nearly flawlessly faked. Except for that one building they blew up over the open radio broadcast for no real reason.
