The Truth About 9/11 I’d have to say that it is difficult to view all of the footage of the World Trade Center and not think that some stories that are being fed to us Americans are not the full truth. For all of the events that take place in the world to be so heavily covered by the media, I still don’t seem to grasp a clear picture of what’s really going in the world abroad and neither do the rest of the American people. I believe that the president is to alert the American people of important matters concerning our well being. I can’t help but feel a certain amount of betrayal from our president and administration for not taking further action to stop these planes while they were still in the air seeing that they indeed had prior knowledge of these attacks. I am glad to see that the American people are seeking the truth and I believe that we have every right to ask the government questions. The problem that is posed is the fact that the government is not answering these questions for us nor are attempting themselves to research these concerns that we have. The group of Americans, as mentioned above, have come to be called the 9/11 Truthers; part of the truth movement. They believe that the attacks on 9/11 were an inside job with help of government organizations. They aim to use the flawed stories and overwhelming evidence to support their side of the issue. The first issue I want to deal with is the hole that was made when the Boeing 757 hit the pentagon. The 9/11 debunkers (people who believe the contrary to the 9/11 Truthers) say that the plane did indeed hit the pentagon and have both pictures and videos to prove this point. They said that there was only small debris left of the plane because the rest of the plane was vaporized. They have gone on record saying that they have interviewed all of the clean up crew that day and that they indeed see a plane. The debunkers have also said that the plane bounced off the ground before it hit the pentagon. Now the truthers have argued that this is completely false. The hole in the pentagon was twenty feet in diameter, shaped as a circle. There are no visible marks on the grass where the debunkers claimed that the Boeing 757 bounced off of to hit the pentagon.
...ary knew about the crash and that they were going to transport the wreckage to another military base. Many eyewitness accounts with similar details eliminate the possibility of merely a single person making up the entire event. The government’s contradictory reports demonstrate that their knowledge of the incident is dynamic and dependent on how they want the people to react. This matter is important because it raises the possibility that if the government is hiding information from the public about a spacecraft accident, there may be other incidents where the government is concealing the truth from the public. Despite the government’s best attempts to cover up the Roswell incident, eyewitness accounts from the common person validate the idea that an unidentified flying object crashed in Roswell, New Mexico and eternally changed the lives of several people.
9/11 was a horrific incident. There are no words that can possibly describe how deeply it affected the America that my generation has come to know. This atrocity hurt the economy and made us into an intolerant country; however, this same atrocity also opened our nations eyes. It showed us how vulnerable we were, and as a result our countries security, and the concern for safety of its citizens has grown. While it is important to recognize how terrible 9/11 was, its also important to recognize how much it has helped our great nation. 9/11 and events like it are important. They show us how to better our country and though painful, these events necessary into growing our country.
On September 11, 2001 New York came upon a terrorist attack. The terrorist hijacked four airplanes the morning of the attack. The attack was part of the Al-Qaeda Islamist group, led by Osama Bin Laden. Two planes collided into the World Trade Center; one hit the Pentagon, and the other one crashed in Pennsylvania never reaching its destination. The cause of 9/11 is that Islam saw the United States as a heinous country with different and awful morals so they decided to attack. The consequences were the tensions between Americans and Muslims rose. Numerous hate crimes were committed and there was a massive economic downfall. We could have avoided this incident if the airport security would have been more strict, then the attack would have a less chance of happening (Bantista). “Make no mistake, the United States will hunt down and punish those responsible for these cowardly acts. Freedom itself was attacked this morning by a faceless coward. And freedom will be defended.” –President Bush directly after the 9/11 attacks (Tsimelkas). The government issued extreme changes in the military system and the surveillance ...
Conspiracy theorists, calling themselves Truthers, have provided evidence to support their claims numerous times in attempts to convince the general population. Truthers start by pointing out the FBI Crime They demand the government to explain what really happened and that justice be fairly served. They have not had an open playing field, however, they received opposition at every move they make with explanations, counterarguments, and information from the government, police forces, first responders, and the residents of Newtown.
Many conspiracy theories have been developed concerning what happened to the World Trade Centers on September 11, 2001, but there are a select few that, similar to the truth, cannot be disproved without quite a bit of effort. One theory is that the Twin Towers were destroyed by controlled demolitions. Another idea of what happened is that planes did hit the towers, but they were remote controlled. A third theory is that Al Qaeda is not responsible for the 9-11 attacks (The Top September 11 Conspiracy Theories, n.d.). And last, but certainly not least, is the theory that the 9-11 attacks were a false flag operation. When considering these theories, there are many different controversial areas that should be assessed to differentiate between fact and opinion.
George W. Bush’s “9/11 Address to the Nation” is a speech in which he talks about the catastrophic event on September eleventh, 2001. Two airplanes crash into the Twin Towers in New York City on this day, shocking the entire world. He addresses this speech to the people of America on the night of the disastrous event, to let the people of the United States know what is going on. This speech explains how the United States is a strong country, the motives behind the event, as well as to bring the United States together and stronger.
There are several famous Western Composers in History, but the one composer that I wanted to know more about is George Frideric Handel. He was born on February 23, 1682 and he was a German- born British Baroque composer. He studied at the University of Halle before moving to Hamburg in 1703, where he served as a violinist in the opera orchestra. He was born the same year as Johann Sebastian Bach. He spent most of his life in London and he was well known for his operas, oratorios, anthems, and organ concertos. Handel was a son of a barber- surgeon and Handel’s dad wanted him to become a lawyer, but he was into music. Handel’s father didn’t want to by Handel an instrument because he didn’t want him to be a composer. His mom and his aunt was the only one that supported him. Handel started playing the violin,
Just about everyone in the United States has heard about the little town of Roswell, New Mexico. Most people know that there is a connection between Roswell and UFO’S. This crash site became the most credible in UFO crashes ever known. The U.S military actually sent out to the news and every reporter claiming that a flying disk has just crash at Roswell in July 1947. It was all in the news papers and it said that the military had recovered the flying disk and later the military retracted that news from the newspaper and every type of media saying that they had made a mistake and that it was just a weather balloon that they retracted and have in their possession (marshal, Brian). The s...
Hundreds of thousands of people would visit the crash site every year to try and get information for themselves. People will continue to believe that a UFO actually crashed here. Until the CIA and they Air Force have proof that is was a weather balloon, people will still visit and this will still be a conspiracy
George Frideric Handel was born on February 23, 1685 to George Handel and Dorothea Taust in Halle, Germany. Handel’s father prohibited him to use any musical instruments because he wanted him to study law. However, Handel secretly learned to play the harpsichord and pipe organ and became a talented performer. During a trip to Weissenfels that Handel and his father took to see Handel’s nephew, who was Duke Johann Adolf I’s valet, Handel was given the opportunity to play the organ. Everyone was impressed by his performance, and Handel and the duke were able to persuade his father to let Handel receive music lessons from Friedrich Wilhelm Zachow, who played the organ for Halle’s Marienkirche. Handel received lessons on the harpsichord, oboe, organ, and violin. Handle complied with his father’s desire by attending the University of Halle and studying Civil Law in1702. He played the organ at the evangelical reformed church for one year before leaving to play the harpsichord and violin in the orchestra of the Hamburg Oper am Gansemarkt. In 1705, he produced Almira and Nero, which were his first two operas. Three years later, he produced two additional operas entitled Daphne and Florindo. He met Gian Gastone de’ Medici while in Hamburg, and he invited him to Italy. In 1706, Handel accepted his offer and journeyed to Italy and worked together with Antonio Salvi. His first opera that he composed for Italian performance was entitled Rodrigo, and it was performed in 1707 in the Florence’s Cocomero theatre. He wrote his first oratorio entitled Il trionfo del tempo e del disinganno in 1707. He produced music for the clergy of Rome, including his popular work Dixit Dominus. Handel composed La resurrezione for Francesco Ruspoli in 1709, as well...
In summary, Handel was one of the greatest composers to ever live. Although George Frederic Handel was mostly known for his oratorio The Messiah, he is also one of the paramount composers of the baroque era. Even though his father wanted him to become a lawyer, Handel never gave up his dream of becoming a world class musician. His creativeness and speed is unmatched even today. The operas and oratorios Handel created are still some of the greatest ever made. His contrasting textures and beautiful melodies make his music some of the most technical and beautiful music ever created.
German-English composer, George Frederick Handel, is one of the greatest composers of the Baroque period if not of all time. His work, Messiah, is one of the most famous and beloved works of music in the world. During his career in music, Handel composed Italian cantatas, oratorios (like Messiah), Latin Church Music, and several operas. Handel moved around from country to country writing, composing, and producing music for royalty such as Queen Anne and George of Hanover. In his life, Handel mastered several instruments including the violin and the harpsichord.
Another theory was that perhaps the U.S. Military had shot down flight 93 as to prevent it from taking aim at another important government building. But these claims have been sharply denied by Pentagon officials. The FBI says to the question if it has been ruled out or not that it is “kind of a loaded question.
George Frideric Handel was one of the greatest composers of classical music of all time. His style of Italian opera and late baroque music is contended only with that of Bach. Bach was born at the same time as Handel, and because of that Bach is always compared to him. The two composers thrived during their time period, and while people may say Bach was just a bit better, Handel did pretty well for himself. George Handel did a great job of producing two fantastic, world-known, pieces of music, as well as many more unacknowledged operas and oratorios. His work will not soon be forgotten, as the music that ended the Baroque Era with a bang.
George Frideric Handel was one of the greatest composers of the late baroque period (1700-1750) and, during his lifetime, perhaps the most internationally famous of all musicians.
