Anarcho-capitalism is an oxymoron tbh. Capital accumulation in anarchy would be rather difficult.Free-market economics =/= capitalism.

I didn't make it past the first 20 minutes. However, to suggest that the west had no involvement in the planning/funding/execution of the 9/11 attacks is just retarded.`
Economics Nazi.

I still remember where I was and what I did on 9/11. I was in a friend's basement playing on his bass guitar while he was eating dinner. When he returned he said that war had broke out in New York and that it was full of planes. Partly correct, but something of an overstatement.

It was like the second or third day of 7th grade for me. We were called into the gym for an assembly where the principal told us that some planes crashed into the Twin Towers. All the classrooms had TVs so we got the rest of the story soon thereafter. It was weird. And for most people my age, it was the first time I ever heard of Islam. The kids of Arab or pseudo-Arab heritage in my school had quite a hard time that year.

I had just woken up, hungover. I brewed some coffee and smoked a bowl, and then I turned on the TV. I seriously thought I was watching an action movie for about the first 10 minutes, especially when I saw plane #2 hit the WTC.

3rd grade, woke up and my mom was in the kitchen watching the little tv and I was like what's happening? and she said there was a big fire in new york. I remember seeing the burning buildings on the little black and white telly...then vaguely learning details during school and I was excited our homework was to watch tv and do a little report on it.

I was a teenager in Sept 2001 (17). I also was in college and working fulltime. I overslept and was 15 mins late for work that day so I remember it quite vividly. I worked for Radioshack at the time so I had like 8 TVs to watch (gps controlled) plane #2 hit.
Edit: My experience in GCI, and now with GPS controlled ordnance, there is no possible way a couple of barely trained "sand monkeys" drove jet liners directly into those buildings, as it is hard enough to get GPS guided things to achieve that precision. Also, I have had a personal inside source with Raytheon tell me the Bush administration told the interceptors on standby to standdown. Probably was "Darth Vader" himself, who helped pen the PNAC, and was a stakeholder in Halliburton. It doesn take a lot of moving parts, just the right ones.
Also, in April 2001 a bid/insurance policy was acquired on the WTC that included terrorists attacks. What a fuckin stroke of luck eh? Money trails tell the tale. Silverstein, Halliburten, (the rest of the MIC).

Wow Dak you're the same age as me lol I always thought you were like 38 or something.
Well I remember sept 11th pretty significantly. My uncle worked for deutsche bank in building 7 and we lost him. I remember being home sick and getting a call from my Dad who worked in Jersey City ( he watch the whole thing outside his office window) telling me to get out of the city. I was on 43rd and 2nd ave and people were literally screaming in the streets/panicking after hearing about it and seeing the dust clouds and slight rumbles. It took me 5 hrs to get home and when I did all we did was wait for a call from my uncle, never happened, pretty sad.

Sorry to hear about your uncle. I can only imagine what it must have been like to be in NYC on that day.
I watched the whole thing live on tv at night here while talking to my girlfriend on the phone. It felt surreal, like the world world was going to break into complete chaos at any second. When the first tower went down, the news reader didn't notice because she was reading a report, but we all saw it happen on the live vision behind her.
