False Alarm At Iconic One World Trade Centre
Firefighters who attended reports of a blaze on the 88th floor of One World Trade Centre in New York, have said it was a false alarm.
It is believed some 24 fire engines and 84 firefighters were sent to the scene.
But the Port Authority in New York has said that no evidence of a fire was found, and crews are heading out.
The tower is the centrepiece of the construction at the site of the 9/11 attacks.
It is still being built and will be the tallest building in New York City on completion.
It has been reported that welding equipment being used in the building may have given off smoke, causing the alert.
what do you think?

It is a different World than in 2001. Many enemies of America have died as heroes fighting them and many Americans have died heroically fighting back. Could it happen again? I also think not. If New York is ever destroyed, it will be by natural catastrophes of Biblical proportions. Everywhere else seems to cope with natural catastrophes of Biblical proportions so, if it ever happened, New York would be rebuilt. Or possibly a World War Three but nobody really wants one of those to happen. It looks like more than about 2,000 people a day die in America on average.

People need to wake up and realise 9/11 was complete set up. The evidence is overwhelming. People may laugh, but they're the ones acutely tuned into the bbc. Anyway, you keep going and people look into it themselves and see it was an inside job.

Always good to seek alternative points of view and evidence. But remember there are people out there hiding the 'truth' with misinformation like the 9/11 inside job. Look at things logically. Why and how was this an inside job? It can easily be argued that one of the major consequences of 9/11 is the financial crisis in the west (not the only factor, but a big one) which is in turn fuelling the rise in wealth and power in the east (have you seen the chinese army recently??). If 9/11 was an orchestarted inside job - it really wasn't a very good one..

Totally with you all the way the towers came down like a demolition explosion .never as any tower block in the world ever collapsed in that manner under fire damage .were did all the billions in gold bullion go from under the towers .why did the owner of the towers insure against a plane hitting the towers just months before .There as never been any account of any plane ever totally evaporating but now we are tobleave that four planes just evaporated but a passport survived . The phone calls that were recorded from passengers on one of the planes before it hit the towers no screening or panic in the background . Conspiracy no .cover up defiantly but we all believe what the magic box in the corner tells us .people need to start to think for them selfs and search for the truth

Absolute garbage. Almost funny if it wasn't so insulting to those who died

Here we go with the swivel eyed conspiracy theorists again. Lets not forget the fake moon landings and the New World Order run by the Illuminati. You make David Icke look normal.

Robin- id say it was more insulting to not have a criminal investigation into the deaths of 3000, not to mention 2 illegal wars and the deaths of thousands of soldiers. All because the official 9/11 report says it was because of 19 hijackers 7 of which are still alive lol. Not a shred of evidence for terrorism but evidence for an inside job in abundance! Its so important for civilization to get to the bottom of this and still people laugh and call you David icke else if its an insult lol. Go online and watch building 7 collapse with all the experts saying it was demolished in a controlled explosion. U can see it with your own eyes! Lol. But wait- the evidence is not support in main stream media people, but everything is on the web. In fact 80pc of Americans don't believe it was a terrorist attack. To the ignorant ones open your tiny minds to the blatant evidence it was an inside job. And trust me this isn't going away. 911 was a gateway into the middle east. And by the way David icke is talking to a sell out crowd at wembly this October. 911 was orchestrated- if i had to gamble id put my life on it. Wake up people wake up!

Jimmy i'll be at wembley arena to see icke also. But you sound as brainwashed as the masses! Just because you read something outside the usual media outlets, doesn't mean its true!
Paul Grice
Robin .do you think that governments care about people just look at history and the millions sent to theire deaths in the name of freedom . Yes I feel for the dead and the love ones left behind but don't think for one minute the powers that be care just collateral damage to them .

Robin is ignorant, but its only a matter of time until he wakes up. Our police state is already here. Quickly pushing in new laws and taking away our civil liberties faster than you can shake a stick before we all wake up to what's happening. The ones to condemn, laugh and ridicule will be the ones that will feel utter shame in our childrens future for not being tuned into reality. What did you do to stop the new world order grandad? Nothing just laughed about it cus i believed everything my government and its media machine told me. Tragic.
Bette Stalford
You sound totally brainwashed Jjedi, yet you claim to be one of the "enlightened". I do'nt believe a word of what you say and even less of what Icke says', this was the guy who claimed he was Christ. O puleeze!.
jimmyjedi1979
Go and watch Britains got talent. We'll do your thinking for you.
jimmyjedi1979
Brain washed? Don't make me laugh lol i am wide awake little sheep. You guys are all the same though- regurgiting the lies you are told by our corrupt politicians and corrupt media. Its so blatantly obvious, what's more blatantly obvious is your lack of imagination you bbc clone

Well apparently small fires made world trade building 7 free fall into a pile of rubble. I wonder if the same thing will happen again! Not likely.
