Let's not jump to conclusions. A lot of these are rumors. The car bomb at the State Department is apparently a rumor, and nothing has been officially confirmed about Camp David. The network I'm listening to has only confirmed the following things:'

1) Both Trade Center towers rammed by planes.
2) Plane crashed into Pentagon.
3) 747 crashed 80 Miles outside of Pittsburg.

Has anyone else heard CONFIRMED reports of anything else?

Yes, Both trade centers have colapsed. Not a rumor... I watched both go on TV.

They have colapased atleast to lower than the surrounding skyline if not completely.

man, this is really terrible to watch, especially watching in real time when that second plane crashed into the second Twin tower. Did i read correctly that a few people here work in the twin towers? seriously????
man... the two towers look pretty bad, if anyone was still in the building after the crash, i can't imagine anyone survivoring the collapse of 50+ stories. I also heard reports of people jumping out of thw window befoe the thing fell. thats just sad. man....

terrible people in this world....

Ok, this is what I just heard on CNN. All flights seem to be AA flights. There is a plane missing from Dulles to LA. Eyewitnesses at the pentagan have reported that it was an AA plane that came up 395 and crashed into the Helo pad at the pentagan.
They also said that the state dept. was not bombed, it was a false report.

I watched on television, that tower one had been pretty much evacuated, and then the second tower was hit.
This is all really bad, and it does not seem to be over
