Recently acquired FOIA helicopter footage from 9/11 hit major media headlines. 

The new video, some of it seen before (@ 4:00 min), is low-mid quality and mostly missing the very important aspects of the WTC  Towers destruction; especially the onset of their destruction. It does however give good perspective to the dust cloud that covered thousands of people in Manhattan.

Over the last 9 years there have been many Freedom Of Information Act Requests filed  pertaining to the events on 9/11/01. Very little of the information that has been acquired has had any major media attention if any at all.

The recently revealed file was uploaded to YouTube on March 6th; within 4 days the video had received 8 million views.

Just look at this small sampling of the major media outlets that carried the 9/11 helicopter footage within those first 4 days:

• ABC
• BBC
• RT
• Wall St. Journal
• Huffington Post
• CBS New York
• Yahoo News "Front Page"
• Gothamist

My good friend in Costa Rica asked about the new footage; my Aunt in Chile asked about it too! Worldwide news - but why?

The destruction of the towers is almost entirely unseen in the new video; whether the camera was off or the "collapse" was edited out, I have no idea.

I don't know why the media would not want to highlight this video with firemen describing explosions and bombs blowing up in the towers - also released via FOIA:

All of the videos above have been out for months, yet not one has reached even a quarter-million views. What would happen if 8 million people watched these videos and then signed a petition asking for a new 9/11 investigation? What if 8 million people watched this video?

Please make sure anyone who asks you about the new 9/11 helicopter footage is sent some videos like those provided above to help fill in the blanks of our 9/11 tragedy.
