Newly released aerial photos of the Sept. 11, 2001, World Trade Center attack show the towers coming down from a dramatic new angle.
The photos were obtained by ABC News, which filed a Freedom of Information Act request with the National Institute of Standards and Technology last year. The NIST collected the images as part of its investigation into the terrorist attack.
ABC said it was provided 2,779 pictures on nine CDs. Many of the photos, taken from police helicopters, have never been released before.

Where is the link to the photos? I don’t see them.
I only saw one of the photos and it didn’t appear clickable to (what the article said) were 12 others. Are they somewhere else?

Bump for link.
“The photos were obtained by ABC News, which filed a Freedom of Information Act request with the National Institute of Standards and Technology last year. The NIST collected the images as part of its investigation into the terrorist attack.”
Not sure why the NIST would be investigating anything and not sure why it would take use of the Freedom of info act to get them.

Wow.
“And let me say this, with respect to those who wish to harm us, I believe that our Constitution and laws exist to protect this nation – they do not grant rights and privileges to enemies in wartime. In dealing with terrorists, our tax dollars should pay for weapons to stop them, not lawyers to defend them.”
Senator Scott Brown
*ping* . . . . I wonder why an FOIA was necessary?? Isn’t that odd?
Yeah, Islamofascist POS’s deserve all the rights and protections of a US citizen.
Good job, Obammie the Commie, bringing them onto US soil to try, you traitor.
(My apologies. “Traitor” implies that you were at one time on our side. You have always hated America.)
Ain’t this just High Weirdness?? Whyever would an FOIA be necessary for the release of these photographs?????
Let’s see what the msm does with these pics.
Don’t worry, we won’t see the worst ones. Remember that day, the media made a note of saying they weren’t showing any video or photo footage of the dozens of people that jumped from the building....too disturbing. And the MSM isn’t about to show them now without lest they remind us that we really have a global war on terror.
Fast forward a few years, some military police guarding prisoners at Abu Ghraib photo enemy combatants captured on the battlefield with ladies undies on their heads, the media couldn’t get enough of them, and expressing their shock that our military would do this, and doesn’t this mean our soldiers are no better than the terrorists that flew planes into the WTC.
When KSM goes on trial, if it is a civilian jury trial, I hope that some prosecutor, who hasn’t drank the Kool Aid, shows the video footage of the people jumping off the building as a stark reminder of what really happened on 9/11.
Glad to see the photos again....
I’m not glad that they exist, but the media seems to have done a good job of never showing them again.
Even movies have editted out images of the WTC Towers that randomly appeared in movies...
We have to keep showing these pictures.....
