| Many Mysterious Images and Objects are Seen in the WTC Smoke. Crosses are Seen Standing in the Ruins after the WTC Towers Collapse. |
| Images and Crosses Editor's Comments ©September11News.com On the morning of September 11, 2001, I was working at my home office. After being informed of the first terrorist attack on the Trade Center towers I turned on the television and watched the horror unfold. I was shocked at the unimaginable destruction, and overwhelming loss of life. It was a tragedy beyond belief. As I watched that morning, I noticed a series of eerie faces in the billowing smoke. These images appeared to morph in the seemingly never-ending pillars of ugly black smoke. I made a mental note of these surreal apparitions, and I mentioned it to my wife. I did not discuss these sightings again. After all, I tend to see images in clouds. However the images I see in clouds are always pleasant images, usually animals. In assembling the archives for this site, I viewed thousands of images and newspaper covers. Again, I noticed the eerie faces in the still images of the smoke of the burning towers. They seemed to be present in not just one, but several of the burning tower images. Further research provided additional information and seemed to confirm what I was seeing. I was not alone in noticing these awful faces. Mark D. Phillips, a professional AP photographer in New York, captured an incredibly real image of an evil, devil-like face that is distinguishable on the side of the tower's exterior structure. The authenticity of this image has caused a bit of a stir. Our research has concluded that his image is original and not doctored. The Associated Press and Mark Phillips have unequivocally denied any tampering or enhancement of the image. In fact, neither AP or Phillips were aware of what the photograph appeared to reveal until the image was noticed by readers of US newspapers. When the photo appeared on an early Wednesday (Sept. 12) edition of the Saginaw (Michigan) Press, the phone calls began. (See images below.) Further reports indicate that both CNN and ABC have also captured additional devilish images on their television videotape coverage. (See images below.) Additional faces and images have also been identified by several others. (See images below.) The images on this page are not intended to frighten. They are what they are: mostly evil images from an evil act. I, like most people in the world, are convinced that goodness will prevail over evil, and we pray that the likes of these images will never be seen again. In a speech to the USA on September 11th, President Bush said, "Today, our nation saw evil." He may have been literally correct. Later in that same speech he also said, "Tonight, I ask for your prayers for all those who grieve, for the children whose worlds have been shattered, for all whose sense of safety and security has been threatened. And I pray they will be comforted by a power greater than any of us spoken through the ages in Psalm 23: "Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I fear no evil for you are with me." Not all images below depict evil faces. Some images depict angel-like images, objects, and flying creatures. We offer our research as an archive of the images that show something, whatever that something may be. There are also remarkable stories of NYC firemen dropping to their knees in prayer after seeing crosses rising up from the catastrophic ruins of the WTC towers. We begin this section with the original story of the crosses, images of one of the crosses, where the cross was originally sighted, and a memorial with the NYC Fire Department. We have also included memorable cross images from the days following the September 11th attacks. God Bless Our Earth. |

| Subsequent to the NY Post story below, we located a photograph of one of the original crosses found on the top of the rubble (image above). It is the same cross used in the October 4th memorial ceremony with the New York City Fire Department. The cross of steel beams was blessed at Ground Zero on the northwestern side of the World Trade Center attack site. The cross was found by a laborer at the site two days after the twin towers' collapsed and later moved to its present location. Father Brian Jordan blessed the cross. The cross was from World Trade Tower One, and was found in World Trade Building Six, and then moved to the October 4, 2001 location. (Click on the photographs for larger images.) |

On September 23, 2001, The New York Post Published the Following Story: © NY Post You are looking at what some people believe is a miracle. Two days after the disaster, a construction worker found several perfectly formed crosses planted upright in a pit in the rubble of the heavily damaged 6 World Trade Center. The large, cross-shaped metal beams just happened to fall that way when one of the towers collapsed. An FBI chaplain who has spent days at ground zero says he has not seen anything like it on the vast site. As word of the find has spread at ground zero, exhausted and emotionally overwhelmed rescue workers have been flocking to the site to pray and meditate. "People have a very emotional reaction when they see it," says the Rev. Carl Bassett, an FBI chaplain. "They are amazed to see something like that in all the disarray. There's no symmetry to anything down there, except those crosses." Chaplain Ray Giunta of Sacramento, Calif., has been to the crosses to pray with rescue workers. "One of the firefighters pointed to them last night and told me, ‘There's my angel,'" Giunta said. The angel protecting the pit where the crosses were found is the Brooklyn-born hardhat who found them: a gentle giant named Frank Silecchia. Silecchia, 47, who now lives in Little Ferry, N.J., found the crosses on the Thursday morning immediately following the collapse of the towers. He marked the site by spray-painting on a nearby wall the words "God's House," and a directional arrow. "The crosses are just shards of steel that came from the Tower 1 [the north tower], and went right through the roof of Building 6 and destroyed the entire center of it," he explained. "When I first saw it, it took my heart, and made me cry for about 20 minutes," he says. "It helped me heal the burden of my despair, and gave me closure on the whole catastrophe." In subsequent days, Silecchia, a born-again Christian, led his fellow rescue workers and others - many of whom were grieving the loss of loved ones - to the crosses. A veteran firefighter who had been digging through the twisted metal for his lost firefighter son. An angry cop who lost someone in the collapse. A Vatican representative, who photographed the crosses for the pope. And ABC's Barbara Walters. He says they all left in peace. "Barbara Walters' niece lost her son in the building," he said. "Barbara told me she wanted people to see the House of God, so people who needed healing could find it." |

 Daily Record New Jersey Sunday, Sept 16 |
While compiling newspaper archives, September 11 News noticed what appears to be an eerie clown like mask on the side of the WTC tower. The photo appeared on the cover of the Sunday, September 16th edition of the New Jersey Daily Record (left). We then located the original AP Photo (right). The AP photo was taken moments after Flight 175 hit the WTC South Tower at 9:03 AM EDT. This AP photo is very similar to the image captured on videotape by CNN (shown above), and an image on the Internet (shown below). |

| On September 11, 2001, at 10:00 A.M. EDT, the WTC South Tower collapses. September 11 News has discovered an image above the tower as it begins to collapse. The winged creature appears bird-like, and seems to be backing up and flying away from the top of the tower. In the Reuters photograph sequence above you can see the image as it appears to leave the top of the falling tower. |

When we zoomed in on the flying creature we also noticed a bear-like creature across from the winged animal. The bear is on top of the North Tower with a leg and paw on the side of the building. He appears to be looking at the departure of the South Tower creature. |

| A flying mystery object was captured on Fox News videotape moments after a second aircraft crashed into New York's World Trade Center. Stills from the video, taken by Gamma Press USA, showing the twin towers from an east angle, reveal an unknown object moving at a 90 degree angle to the second plane's flight path. A close examination of the footage appears to first show the object flashed by sunlight, above the left tower, a full 10 seconds after impact of the second airliner. The mystery object quickly streaks across the the back of the right tower before swooping down at a rapid clip and out of the camera's frame. |
