if this has been discussed already, i apologize..

if it hasn't..

go here:

http://www.prisonplanet.com/articles/february2007/260207building7.htm

and watch the video. a BBC journalist in NYC is reporting live on the collapse of building 7. the only problem is... you can see the building standing behind her - it didn't collapse until almost a half hour later.

huh??

  • I saw this! I thought it was pretty interesting, indeed.

    BBC reported the building had collapsed before 5 pm. It didn't actually fall until 5:20. Later they go to this lady in NYC for live coverage of the event and there's the building, still standing, right behind her head! Just watch the clip.

    well, she wasn't the only person reporting it. bbc first reported at 4:57 that WTC7 collapsed. it actually collapsed at approx. 5:20.

    why would they report that when no one expected that building to come down? WTC7 came down accidentally, according to official reports. where were they getting their info from?

    they report something that didn't happen yet, and something that was entirely unexpected - then it happens 20 minutes later.. that doesn't seem odd to you?

    ok so BBC is the idiot. if they were fed that report from some US official dont you think it would be public knowledge? that can not be kept a secret no matter gag order the government tries to put on it.

    yes it does seem odd. so where did they get the info from? do you think the government "took out" anyone who knew ?

    I hadn't heard about this one.

    I found another BBC report, with the timestamp, reporting the collapse 25 minutes before it happened.

    It part of the conspiracy. ;)


    The video isn't working but could it be that she was mistaken as which building she was talking about? This seems like a reach. But then the whole thing seems far fetched to me.

    i don't think she was mistaken. only 2 buildings had collapsed at the time of her report. she was very specific about describing the building, as was the desk anchor who reported the same thing 15 or so minutes before he spoke to her.

    i'd love to know who told the bbc wtc7 came down.

    There was a firefighter on the radio arguing with the creator of one film questioning why WTC7 came down. He said he saw the fire first hand, since he was right there, and he said in his heavy NY accent that the film's producer wasn't there and doesnt know what he's talking about.

    However - the footage you are posting is intriguing about it being announced beforehand.

    I was living about 25 miles away from manhattan, watching on TV. They were showing WTC7 in the footage before it came down. I recall them talking about WTC7, that it may not last much longer, from either fire or damage. So, I was aware that it was a damaged building well before it fell. They showed close up footage of the building on tv, but I wasnt paying attention to what they were showing at the time - just what they were saying about the damage to WTC7 and how it was damaged.
    ADD 5,200 to the post count you see, thank you. :)

    This must mean we need to add BBC to the conspiracy. They were part of it. ;)

    I am thinking with the building being on fire and the condition it was in they might have warned it was going to collapse and made sure people were clear of it. As the warning spread someone along the line thought they said the building had collapsed. Sounds like a good explanation to me.

    this is what i'm thinking too. but for the others who dont buy this explaination, why wouldnt the BBC come out and say they were told this by joe doe government official?

    That is a good question. My bet would be they just didn't think it was that big of a deal and paid no attention to it.

    There is no way you guys would have bought this kind of explanation from us. It's quite a reach and involves disregarding what was actually reported.

    No way this is a government conspiracy. If our government was going to tip off a network and give them an early exclusive, they sure as hell wouldn't pick the freakin' BBC! Now, if it had been Fox News, we might be onto something .....
