CBS Evening News with Dan Rather - September 11, 2001.

[RexallMetal]

To all the people who think 9/11 was a "inside job" or bombs were planted in the WTC..

or that the LIVE TV shots of planes hitting the buildings were Faked. Um yea so were all the

eye witnesses on the ground lieing in the interviews?? "I saw a plane hit the tower" not true?

Give me a break! The World watched 9/11 happen LIVE on TV or in person on the ground!

To Idiots that believe our Government did this..where is your evidence? Oh thats right you

don't have any! Truth always rises above lies!

[Speedogg138]

@RexallMetal Just ignore them. They have no friends and this is all they have to hold on to. :)

[ImmaEverything]

how the hell did i end up here?

[Nuschlerclark]

This is the first time I have seen these videos. I was in a coma in a hospital from August to December 2001. I was recovering from a traumatic brain injury and only remember a few facts. The nurses would not allow me to watch ANY TV because they thought it would hurt my recovery...Now I must grieve alone.

[CamilleNadia]

Wow. Byron Pitts' voice is shaky.

[circa1970]

its amazing how far back the missile theory started....the plane hit the building and that's it. how can anyone say different to the deceased families

[MadirdTiger91]

Dan rather has big ears

[MadirdTiger91]

IDK y people think all islams are terrorists, there are some very famous islams in other professions

[1destined]

"September 11, 2001. You will remember this day as long as you live." Truer words were never spoken about 9/11.

[The7legacy]

@1destined

Yeah,it's been 11 years & I still can't believe what happened that day.

[itswillbois]

TRUE STORY: My seventh and eighth grade history teacher's dad worked at the WTC. he never missed work. but on September 11, he took the day off and went fishing.

[indyfan22k]

@itswillbois  Holy crap.

[wiiplayer9revisited]

I always wanted to just jump through a portal to Pakistan and STAB Osama Bin Laden to death with a sword.

Those dumbfuck terrorists are also to blame for the USA PATRIOT Act, which is what is destroying our freedom as we know it more than the terrorists themselves.

[TheCrisisKings]

im sorry, but no matter how fucking terrible those hijackers were and how i wish they could feel eternal pain for their actions, calling them cowards is wrong. They werent cowards, they stayed in the planes and flew themselves into their own demise. May they rot, but the are not cowards

[AccessDenied55]

Fuck Islamic Terrorist..There there the real scum of the earth

[copsondonuts]

yeah the terrorists motives were just to 'scare' us....sure it was...that was the point. you people are dumb fucks. and please, stop with the 'inside job' crap already. its 2012 now and you kiddies are still seeing boogy-men under your bed with a bush-mask on.

[Utoobepooper]

yes american government, take my liberties and rights so that the boogey men living in caves don't take my freedom!

[jamieraqui]

Seven Saudi soldiers sodomized several sadaams southern squaders

[Celinancc1701]

mysterious building # 7. how you will haunt my mind for the rest of my life.

[hoychristopher1]

inside job...

[SpikyDane]

@hoychristopher1 retard

[beerstoreguy1]

@SpikyDane thank you

[zg294]

I was 18 years old and a senior in High School when this happened. I never thought I would serve in the military when I was 18; however, I enlisted and served 3 tours of duty (Iraq twice and Afghanistan once) following 9/11. I still don't feel a sense of justice, but I pray that those innocents who lost their lives hold the gates open for me in Heaven!

[SocialAssasin]

@zg294 i too just started my senior year of high school...we turned the tv on in class maybe 3 minutes before the second plane hit..ill never forget it. i graduated in june of 02 and was in iraq by 04 right when it started to hit the fan...glad to know you made it home safe. semper fi

[MrPixarGuy]

I think that the terroist's motives were just to scare us. And they succeeded.

[XLBMummyX]

Damn Muslims Suddam and Osama are dead atleast. Now if only we could impeach Obama for being a planner.

[ymmmmot1]

@XLBMummyX Saddam had nothing to do with 9/11

[opusmax1]

@ymmmmot1 Google "Salman Pak."

[AkiLLys]

ahahahahahahahaha



[JR1070]

@ministerailingtongue You're commenting on the wrong video fucktard.

[mrjlh91]

I was 10 years old when the attacks happened. all i can remember was watching news stories surrounding 9/11, terrorists, bin laden and the anthrax for weeks but i hadnt the slightest clue that my country was changing right before my very eyes. Now im 20 years old and as i sit here and watch in retrospect, the only thing i can do is cry. :((((

[italianbabiex8]

@mrjlh91 me too =( i was 10 also

[MinisterAilingTongue]

Less than a month before 9-11, my greatest political concern was immigration. We didn't respond correctly because we left the borders open. Hordes of immigrants are destroying the country. They are slowly bleeding away the Constitution. The immorality of attracting people to work here illegally because it cuts costs for business has not been reversed. Look at the results of having a massive Latin American population are: crime spreading throughout the nations that burdened us with their poor.

[MrLouie670]

@theonlyone246 Never forget Jesus was a Jew. We here in America don't forget it. Btw, little fact for you all that you may not be aware of- there are now more Jews in New York than there are in Israel. :) So strap on your bombs & run into Israeli cafes all you want, Israel is just one of our outposts. They are all in the military there & understand they are in danger.

[HalfBornUnicornFetus]

@MrLouie670

Remeber, we never had an enemy in the Middle East before we had a "ally"...fuck Israel.

[matt2fresh84]

building 7 wasnt even on fire......boy isnt that funny

[matthewkeene]

@matt2fresh84

Yes it was. There are several videos taken close during the early afternoon. Most are here on YouTube.

[gledalac1979]

may we remember all the defenseless victims of american and israeli terrorism

[beancube2010]

Yeah, we all know what he didn't report. News broadcasters are famous for cover up.

[mikekinney288]

@SINghful1 Hey idiot, last time I checked women are also in the US military. By the way, no one on here believes your bullshit. Anyone who actually SERVED in the armed forces wouldn't talk like you. You are nothing but a right wing armchair warrior, a fraud. You are a fucking moron and hope some terrorist takes your cowardly ass out

[russellran12]

@SINghful1 Actually you're full of shit, but good try. People who have clearances and work in intelligence aren't even permitted to say as much as you just did. You're obviously just hell bent on lying to get someone to believe your incredibly ignorant views. Again....just give me anything that would make a conspiracy plausible from an operations standpoint. How in the hell do you take down 3 buildings and noon notice any alterations being done? It's not like someone stuck an M80 and lit it

[russellran12]

@SINghful1 What actions? You were a piss on in the military and you know the actions of the heads of state because of what? You're a tool....I'm sure there are a few firefighters that are misguided too. I still would love JUST ONE way the government could have pulled this off and not a single person had a guilt trip. I mean you're talking about people like me and you that would have had to plant the explosives....you mean noone would sell that story?

[russellran12]

@SINghful1 How does you being in a foreign land give you insight into what happened on 9/11?....You were guarding some random shit that was seen as valuable...yes you figured it out because you got a uniform on. I tell you what...you go down to Ground Zero and find a firefighter....you know...another expert with a uniform. You tell him how his government killed his brothers on 9/11 and see how far you get.

[russellran12]

@SINghful1 lol...Yeah the Kennedy family...there's an honest bunch. You really are as dumb as you appear to be. I'm also not sure what you're referring to with the "why not Afghanistan" comment...pretty sure we took the Taliban down in about 9 minutes after declaring war in 2001. I think you need to read up on something other than the idiots that made "Loose Change" and Michael Moore movies before jumping into a gun fight armed with a ball point pen. PLEASE DON'T VOTE!!!!!

[kattwin1]

I know it's odd to say, but thanks for showing someone falling from the building. I watched Brothers and Sisters when it was on, & a character on the show, while tearfully recounting her time in New York on 911, said that she could hear bodies hitting the ground but that news stations weren't airing any of the footage of eople jumping. Personally, the second I got home from school & turned on the TV, that was the FIRST image I saw ON TV: bodies falling. It happened. Thanks for clearing that up.

[russellran12]

@SINghful1 You're a moron...plain and simple. I beg of you to not vote, or please leave the USA altogether.  Anyone with their head shoved as far up their own ass as you could not possibly make a coherent decision at the polls.

[russellran12]

@SINghful1 Un-aired news footage? Are you serious...that was the most recorded event in history and you're saying there is some sort of coverup? How stupid do you have to be to believe this garbage? You're the same kind of dumbass that thinks W was an idiot, and couldn't tie his shoes right, but was capable of coordinating an attack of this magnitude. How many people would have had to be involved?...100s?...how do you plant the explosives with noone noticing in a building with 50,000 people?

[broadcaster2009]

Dan Rather in my opinion was the best. He told it perfectly at the beginng.

Always remember

[Deadpool5594]

"stunning and COWARDLY strike on the united states"

[O2Eater]

America deserved this. Ever hear of Pearl Harbor?

[66voldemort]

@O2Eater Hmm, really? Would you be saying this if your mother or sibling was killed on September 11th? I'm gonna guess the answer to that is a resounding NO. how about you stop spewing hateful bullshit on youtube and get yourself a nice hobby.

[Filip3anut]

@O2Eater FUCK YOU ASSHOLE!!!. The u.s. was not the only one affected. The whole world was. Fuckyou.

[1kyscott1]

@O2Eater WTF is your problem!!!

[rbryant100]

@O2Eater More like O2 thief. Get out of hiding and tell this to a survivor. I dare you, you trolling keyboard puzzy.

[O2Eater]

@rbryant100 This is the best response I've ever had to a trolling spree.

[kd4adv]

If the 1993 attacks from underground didn't bring the towers down, then red flags should have gone up indicating that an attack from the air is possible. "Here's Your Sign."

Unfortunately, gov't agencies choose NOT to communicate with other agencies. Therefore, 9/11 happened. And, Sunday, September 11, 2011 will be Ten Years after, 9/11/2001.

[russellran12]

@SINghful1 You're a fucking idiot, what evidence? Some grainy, doctored videos and some hack engineers saying steel melts well above that temperature? Open your eyes and read the THOUSANDS of pages dedicated to debunking EVERY SINGLE CONSPIRACY THEORY. If after reading those you're still convinced that it's an inside job, I invite you to move the fuck out of this country...or at least never take your dumbass to a polling station to cancel the vote of a person with a fully functioning brain.

[crusaderpat]

@SINghful1 During the aftermath of a shocking, tragic, and apparent random act of violence and hatred we sit back in disbelief and ask why?Our minds race for another explanation. One that makes more sense. The US The government. Something we already dislike and distrust. However the stark reality is that there were people that hated this nation enough to do this. They had ideological motive. This was not their first strike against the U.S.. The USS Cole bombing, 1994 WTC Bombing. Reality hurts

[mondes1964]

these people did this because they thought they would get 40 virgins or something

[couchwanker]

6 ;44 ook

[couchwanker]

im really happy i was too dumd to join the army

[josh10177]

@couchwanker me too

[Grox]

cowardly? evil, but certainly not cowardly...

[jbblue48089]

@Grox It was cowardly. Rather than strike a world power in a public confrontation, Al-Qaeda covertly hijacked commercial aircraft carrying hundreds of innocent passengers and smashed them into symbolic structures filled with thousands more of innocent people. Then we have to play a sick game of Whack-A-Mole until each of their leaders are caught or killed.

[Grox]

@jbblue48089 Hijacking airplanes and plowing them into buildings is quite brave, actually, if you're talking of the hijackers themselves. OBL? oh yeah, there's a coward...

[GeorgiaKev]

@Grox This was cowardly. al-Queda's leaders brainwashed young, impressionable teen-agers into believing that they would be heroes who would go to paradise and have 82 naked virgins waiting for them if they went to America on a mission of martyrdom. They then went and hid out in caves while these kids destroyed their own lives carrying out this horrific act.

[Grox]

@GeorgiaKev Touche. I sometimes forget why the hijackers were motivated, because the truth is so head-smackingly stupid and aggressively pointless.

[MrLouie670]

@GeorgiaKev They weren't teenagers. They were middle aged men who drank heavily & frequented nude bars. They were raised HATERS of america, but they certainly weren't religious people by any stretch of the imagination.

[lebronsmyboy6]

@MrLouie670 ohh they were religious alright, just not the religion u or i believe in

[zo1215so]

"September 11, 2001: You will remember this day as long as you live."

Yeah, he was definitely right.

[TheMastaUliazz]

I still remember this broadcast. I was 11 years old.
