On September 11, 2001 the world watched in shock and disbelief as planes flew in to New Yorks World Trade Center and the Pentagon in Washington, and Americans realized they were under attack. But by whom? What really happened? In The Unofficial Story, the fifth estates Bob McKeown introduces us to people who believe the real force behind the attacks was not Osama Bin Laden, but the U.S. government itself.
Emerging from the dust and debris that day was a movement, known these days as 9/11 Truth or truthers people who believe that 9/11 was part of a vast conspiracy and cover-up by a criminal faction within the U.S. government. As the fifth estate reports, public opinion polls now show that the majority of Americans believe the Bush Administration had advance knowledge of those attacks and somehow allowed them to happen and that one-third of Canadians share the same belief.

In The Unofficial Story, Bob McKeown explores why these questions and theories are growing in popularity.

Youll meet some of the leading proponents of truther theories: Richard Gage, an American architect, explains how the WTC twin towers and the lesser known Tower #7 could only have crumbled as they did due to explosive charges placed inside the buildings. Others, including Canadian professor Kee Dewdney, insist that the story of the brave fight by the passengers of United Airlines Flight 93 must have been a hoax. But, youll also hear from others who dispel truther theories and try to understand why, from JFKs assassination to the moon landing to 9/11, a culture of conspiracy springs up around certain historic events.

Despite the difference of opinion between those who blame the hijackers and those who blame their own government, the real importance of the fight over 9/11 truth is that it may have less to do with the past than the future.

  • ha ha ha, he's worried 9/11 truth will affect America's reputation around the world. He should spend a little time researching America's actual history of foreign affairs. Wonder if he also believes the "terrorists" hate us because of our "freedoms" ha ha ha

  • Yes, and notice how much military equipment graces most Pop Mech covers.

    Popular Mechanics loves getting the inside scoop + 1st pix of all the latest & coolest military machines. So no way they'd ever be biased re: the American Gov't & US Military!

    I mean, who's gonna bite the big hand that feeds them each month?

  • Leave it to Canadian media to present a well balanced presentation of the 9/11 farce.

    Bravo Canada - America's less popular, but much smarter, stepbrother. Fucking yes.

  • All these conspiracy theorists are out of their mind. The footage of the airplanes crashing has been shot thousands of times from many different angles. In all of these cases, it is clear that it was the airplanes that brought the Twin Towers down.

  • Clarification=Thousands of People in Government Conspiracy. Criminal=Perpetrator of Crime. Witness=Suspecting or Witnessing Crime. We all know of people who, for fear of losing their jobs or lives, would not speak about crimes involving superiors. Ex: Pentagon lady (with little baby) witnessed attack with Invisible Plane & reported explosions but no airplane. CSI was not done. Evidence destroyed. CBC could have done better if it challenged untruthful views. Depleted Uranium+Tactical Nukes.

  • When only 2 LAME-stream news agencies in the whole world report on the 2011 Bilderburg Conference you know that these "reporters" are slaves to their masters. Building 7 is not even MENTIONED in the official 9-11 report!!! Wake up sheeple.

  • @euclid901 [continued] ...since it's not at all in their interests to defy the normative myth, with the loss of status, stigma and so forth that entails. Moreover, we should remember that the people who keep repeating the official version (journalists above) are necessarily among the most thoroughly conditioned by the canonical myth.

  • @deepblue1776 Right. That man was talking utter nonsense - "the entire journalistic profession", etc. No-one is claiming that journalists are all "in on it". It's just that the vast majority of people (including the journalists) haven't fairly investigated the issues (most people don't even know about building erstwhile existence of Building 7). Not only that, people in the media, in politics, etc, have clear personal interests not to to investigate or give the skeptics a fair hearing...

  • @euclid901 (erratum: Debunking 9/11 Debunking)

  • @euclid901 [cont'd] Incidentally, Griffin has already torn the specious 'arguments' of Popular Mechanics to shreds in a book entitled Debunking /11 Debunking.

  • @euclid901 [cont'd] e.g. the many excellent videos on the Youtube channel of Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth (see also their website), or for a somewhat more 'popular' presentation such documentaries as 9/11 Mysteries. For books, see e.g. The New Pearl Harbour (Griffin) and The War on Freedom (Ahmed).

    (Whatever the intentions of the CBC producers, by simplifying and hence misrepresenting the issues to the point of caricature, this documentary effectively functions as a hit-piece. )

  • The documentary is very cheap and superficial, full of straw man arguments, slanted editorializing, etc. To anyone interested in fairly and objectively appraising all the evidence pointing to the conclusion that, at the very least, (1) the official story cannot possibly true and (2) the high-rise buildings were brought down using explosives, I'd recommend referring to the books/films/academic papers of the researchers themselves. As far as films/videos go, see e.g. ... [cont'd]
