It looks like some terrorist bastards flew two planes into the World Trade Center buildings in New York. Watch CNN if you get it.<br><br>Dan East

ABC News is down too. Two planes, at least one being a large commercial jet, were aimed into the buildings. Each was hit by one plane, in the top 3/4 of the building. They are on fire, but no major obvious structural damage (not like it fell down or a big chunk is missing or anything). The second plane was caught on tape striking the building. One of the planes is reported to be a American Airlines 767 hijacked from Boston. No word on passengers, but it would seem that at least hundreds working in the building would have died, as the workday was just getting into full swing.<br><br>Dan East

I can't imagine anyone being able to force a pilot to fly into a building like that. The terrorists must have had their own pilots.<br><br>Dan East
