CNBC reports a plane has hit the World Trade Center in NY. No details...

[Ragtime Cowgirl]

Big anti-globalist rally in NY the next few weeks, lots of hate-mongering going on from the left. 50,000 people work in the two towers.

[CELTICGAEL (Celt)]

I saw the same thing. The 2nd plane did in deed go directly into the tower deliberatly

[unixfox]

We should be getting ready for biological and nuclear attacks by these idiots at this point. These people are nuts !!

[Quilla]

I'm stunned and saying prayers. Thanks to all for the updates.

[poweqi]

Heads BETTER roll on this one! ARAFAT, I suspect.IMO.

[aruanan]

There was just an AP report saying that there had been a plane hijacking before the crash. Could it be a commercial jet full of people hijacked and crashed?

[piasa]

No self-respecting pilot would come in on instruments on a beautiful clear day.

FBI looking at possible hijackings just prior to the attack - CNBC.

[Tuor]

If we continue to play the world's cops, this is what is eventually going to happen.

Look for more of the same in the future.

I'm sitting in my office in Brooklyn and can see plumes of dark gray smoke billowing high up in the atmosphere coming from across the East River. I can't see the building though.

United Airlines Command Center - American Airlines plane hijacked 757

[Cincinatus' Wife]

Talk of hijacking.

[NixNatAVanG InDaBurgh]

Fox says planes hijacked

[Merovingian]

FOX FBI now checking on hijacking....

[Oldeconomybuyer]

Local TV off the air, cell phones out around the area, rescue crews just arriving at the scene

[conservative/not stupid]

commercial airline??? unconfirmed AMerican Airlines hijacked and then PURPOSELY hit the tower nbc news just reported

[CELTICGAEL (Celt)]

The woman on the phone on Fox said it looked like one of the planes looked a fighter jet

[HalfIrish]

a deliberate terrorist attack at the very heart, the very soul of our country.

Umm.. perhaps if it was the Staue of Liberty or the White House or Capitol building.. but the World Trade Center? Serious and terrible, yes. The heart and soul of America? Naah.

[Restorer]

Looks like the terrorists have finally found some people who can competently coordinate complex operations. I hope, whoever he is, that he was flying one of the planes.

This may give Americans a new perspective on suicide bombers.

[Plummz]

I just phoned a friend who lives across the Hudson, he saw the second plane, said it looked like it was coming from the South. . . . circuits to NYC, or at least the one cell number I tried are jammed. FNC just said they're getting reports from FBI about a hijacking.
