World Trade 7 was the 3rd building to come down on 9/11/01, about 8 hrs after towers 1 and 2. You can see footage of the premature reporting by google-video searching BBC WTC7. Jane Standley reports from NY with a live shot behind her. The building stands plain as day with no fires visible. The live feed is lost 5 minutes prior to the ACTUALL collapse, and this time they DO NOT report it.

  1. The same way a news paper in Australia printed and delivered a news paper saying America Attacked a full 4 hours before it even happened yet.  (regarding Pearl Harbor)  They are idiots and do not cover their tracks very well.  But idiots don't believe it because "why would the news lie to us."


  2. It's hard to imagine that you can actually believe that there was a conspiracy of the WTC & 9/11 based on the timeline of news reports. If you'll remember just after 9/11 the news told and showed Palestinians cheering and dancing in the street where as it turned out the footage they did showed happened several months prioir to 9/11.

  3. h**l I always thought that the BBC were the best and smartest news channel on the planet but I never realised they were that smart, or could it just be that you are that dumb to believe c**p like that ?

  4. Most likely foreknowledge, or being fed the information by the non-Arab criminals who played a role in the attacks (and of course someone jumped the gun).

    While it is possible that it was an honest mistake, I find that doubtful.

    BBC wasn't alone with that mistake.  CNN also slipped up.  Another reason I find it doubtful that it was honest is because of an interview with the BBC anchor where he is obviously lying.  During the interview, when first presented with the tape showing WTC7 in the background while his reporter talked of its collapse, he tried to claim he wasn’t at work that day.  When it was proven to him that was a lie, suddenly his memory improved.  He isn’t a convincing liar.  The interview is on You Tube somewhere.  I don’t have a link, sorry.

  5. And in the history of reporting this is the first time that inaccurate information was reported.  

    Often information is reported inaccurately.  This time an inaccurate report ended up happening.  No conspiracy involved.   Just pure coincidence.

  6. The Oil king didn;t give them the cue yet, and they reported it anyway

  7. Those Brits are quite intuitive.

  8. It's because they're 5 hours ahead of NY in London!
