elavator world article from 4/11 which certainly offers cover for planting explosives. Again, I'm not claiming this is true, I'm asking "is it possible"? And searching for answers to satisfy my curious mind.
Osama Bin Laden was the head of the Al Qaeda terrorist group and organized a group of 19 devout religious fundamentalists (who like strippers and coc aine), who were trained to fly in the US. The 19 (several of who are alive per the BBC and the Guardian) boarded four flights on September 11, 2001. They overpowered passengers and the crew, and flew off course for an hour (given or take) without so much as being intercepted by one fighter jet. They crashed into three buildings, toppling three buildings in NYC, and putting a hole in the Pentagon.

Show me where the Guardian corrected their story please?
Here is a prime example. Yep OBL ran Al Qaeda. Yep, they organized an attack. Where you stray into misleading information is you treat it as if them partaking of pleasures of the flesh was forbidden. Which, is wrong. In their belief system, those on a holy crusade and slated to be martyrs are ALLOWED to do things like that. Or, are you not paying attention to the sex slaves ISIS is actively handing out to their fighters?
Second, you add the tagline about the BBC and the Guardian saying that the hijackers are alive....but, both of those organizations long ago corrected their original stories.
Then, you mention how they fly off course for more than an hour without being intercepted as if that was anything other than normal for our air defense back then.
So yeah, when people like you start stringing together misinformation and outright lies...you deserve to get "gang tackled"

Leveraging an unmatched expertise in developing military aircraft from commercial product lines, Boeing is building KC-767s for two major international customers – Italy and Japan – at Boeing Defense, Space & Security facilities in Wichita, Kansas. The first Boeing KC-767A rolled-out of the modification hangar in February 2005, conducted its first flight on May 21, and made its maiden trans-Atlantic flight to participate in the 2005 Paris Air Show.
Two of the Italian Boeing KC-767A aerial refueling tankers made history in mid-December 2008 when they were used to successfully transfer fuel from one to the other during a test flight over northern Kansas. This marked the first time a KC-767 tanker has itself been refueled by any aircraft. The Italian Air Force is acquiring four KC-767A aerial refueling aircraft as replacements for its fleet of 707 tankers.
The Japan Air Self-Defense Force (JASDF) KC-767J was originally contracted for in 2003. The first Boeing 767 arrived in Wichita in June 2005 for modifications into a KC-767J Tanker and conducted its first flight on December 21, 2006. The first two tanker aircraft were delivered in the first quarter of 2008. The third KC-767J tanker was delivered to JASDF on March 9, 2009. The fourth KC-767J was delivered to the Itochu Corp., Boeing’s Japan partner, in December 2009 and transferred to JASDF in the first quarter of 2010. All four delivered Japan KC-767 tankers have achieved Initial Operational Capability and been assigned to an active air wing in the JASDF.
Boeing is talking with a number of foreign governments, as well as the U.S. Department of Defense, on the potential of the 767 Tanker/Transport to fulfill their airlift and refueling requirements.
