    this, according to sources, is a very large plane, possibly a 737.

    from what I hear , it is embedded into the side of one of the Twin Towers in lower Manhattan.


    Crazy

    more later......


    your man on the NY street

    Yes, this just in. a couple of minutes ago, a SECOND jetplane, a 727 has struck the OTHER Twin Tower.


    there are rumors of "terrorist attack" but people are keeping quiet.



    this is madness, I hear the cops everywhere. they have told New Yorkers to stay out of lower Manhattan.

    I am hearing stuff about a terrorist attack?

    www.msnbc.com has pictures up and it only shows one building being hit. But I have heard that both were hit.

    I just heard that it was two planes hitting both buildings, 18 minutes apart, probably had explosives.

    I hope Iraq had something to do with this so we can go invade them. Probably BinLaden though.

    Man, my wife just called and pointed it out to me.

    I think its time to lift the ban on assassinating foreign nationals. Take a French approach to terrorism and cut the bastards down.

    My wife was working at 1 NY Plaza which is next door to the WCT. Glad we move out of NY!

    I'm afraid it's only a matter of time (a few years or less) before one of these acts contains a nuclear weapon. When that happens, I'm not sure we'll drop leaflets this time.

    I would like to make the point on both of these were done before the work day started. It appears they were making a point, not trying to kill.

    Hayestreet, settle down. We don't even now if this was a terrorist attack from Jim McVeigh's offspring or not.

    Being a Rep., I have to say that is one of the biggest wastes of money. If they want to keep "stuff" from happening, build relations and better spying equipment.

    Apparently the 2 planes were hi-jacked from Boston.

    CNN is saying the work day had already started in the Center. They had someone down on the street saying people were streaming out of the buildings. So I think they may have been fairly busy... :(
