September 11, 2001, a day that changed the world as we knew it forever. For years, the events surrounding the 9/11 attacks have been debated, speculated, and analyzed. While the official story of what happened that day is well-known, there are numerous facts and information that have been revealed over the years that shed a new light on the events of 9/11. In this article, we will explore 20 shocking facts and information that have been unveiled about the 9/11 attacks.
1. Able Danger:
Able Danger is a classified military intelligence program that was allegedly able to identify the 9/11 hijackers before the attacks. According to former members of the program, they had identified Mohamed Atta, the lead hijacker, and three other terrorists in 2000.
2. Building 7 Collapse:
One of the most controversial aspects of the 9/11 attacks is the collapse of Building 7, which was not hit by a plane. Despite the official explanation that the collapse was due to fires, many experts and scientists have pointed to evidence of controlled demolition.
3. Pre-9/11 Put Options:
There was an unusually high amount of trading of put options on the stocks of United Airlines and American Airlines, the two airlines used in the 9/11 attacks, in the days leading up to 9/11. This led to speculation that some traders had foreknowledge of the attacks.
4. Nano-thermite:
Scientists found traces of a substance called nano-thermite in the dust from the World Trade Center. Nano-thermite is an explosive material that can be used in controlled demolition
5. Hijacker Passports:
Several of the hijacker’s passports were apparently found in pristine condition at the crash sites, despite evidence of massive destruction at both the World Trade Center and the Pentagon.
6. Flight 93 Shootdown:
While the official story, backed by the 9/11 Commission report, is that Flight 93 crashed near Shanksville, Pennsylvania, after passengers attempted to overpower the hijackers, there are claims that the plane was actually shot down by the United States military.
7. CIA Foreknowledge:
In August 2001, the CIA allegedly warned President Bush, in a presidential brief, of the possibility of a terrorist attack by Al Qaeda. This led to speculation of foreknowledge of the attacks amongst high-level government officials.
8. The Dancing Israelis:
Five Israelis were reportedly seen filming and celebrating the events of 9/11 from a rooftop near the World Trade Center. They were later arrested and interrogated by the FBI, but were eventually released and sent back to Israel.
9. NORAD Stand-down:
NORAD, the North American Aerospace Defense Command, was in charge of protecting American airspace on the day of the 9/11 attacks. Despite being aware of the hijackings early on, NORAD reportedly failed to intervene in time.
10. Ptech Software:
Ptech was a software company that provided the U.S. government with extensive software systems that allowed access to critical government data. It was later discovered that the founder of Ptech had ties to individuals with alleged links to terrorists organizations.
11. Able Danger Whistleblower:
Lieutenant Colonel Anthony Shaffer was a member of the Able Danger program and later became a whistleblower, alleging that the Pentagon had destroyed disc drives that contained valuable information about the program that could have led to the identification of the 9/11 hijackers.
12. Saudi Royal Family Connections:
There have been several reports of connections between members of the Saudi royal family and the 9/11 hijackers. Despite this, the U.S. government has been accused of protecting Saudi Arabia from investigation and prosecution.

19. Harrit and Jones Study:
In 2009, a peer-reviewed scientific study revealed the presence of active thermitic material, or nano-thermite, in the dust from the World Trade Center.
20. Project for a New American Century:
The Project for a New American Century was a neo-conservative think tank that published a document in 2000 that called for a “new Pearl Harbor” to catalyze a policy change towards increased military spending and interventionist foreign policy.
