Unsealed 9/11 Evidence, Ongoing Forensic Identification, and St. Nicholas Church Resurrection

Discover why crucial 9/11 surveillance evidence concerning Saudi nationals was withheld from investigators for decades, and learn how new DNA technology finally brought closure to surviving families nearly 25 years later.

Short Summary

  • New evidence surfaced connecting Omar Albayumi, allegedly a Saudi operative, with pre-9/11 surveillance of the US Capitol, which was never shared with lead FBI investigators in the immediate aftermath.
  • Retired agents and CIA analysts express surprise and anger that key evidence—including a capital surveillance video and an aviation sketch—sat undiscovered or unshared for years, suggesting a significant failure in the immediate investigation.
  • The New York Medical Examiner’s office continues its unprecedented commitment, using advanced cryogenic grinding and DNA amplification to identify remains, successfully naming three victims recently.
  • The rebuilding of St. Nicholas Greek Orthodox Church at Ground Zero, stalled for years due to funding issues and leadership changes, is finally resuming.

This segment explores systemic failures in evidence sharing related to the 9/11 attacks and the profound, ongoing human commitment required to honor the dead through meticulous forensic science and spiritual rebuilding efforts at Ground Zero.

The Bush family also needs to be investigated, for letting the Saudi royal family escape following the next day.

This brought so many memories back. I joined the NAVY Sept. 25 2001 and gave 21 years to our country. I'll never forget that day. Rest in peace to our fallen Americans.

We gonna talk about the Israeli intelligence operatives who were parked up taking pictures and celebrating, when picked up by the FBI they said they were there to “document the events” and they were let go. Netanyahu said 9/11 was good for Israel’s cause in the Middle East.

Entire USA is a no fly zone after the attack. Except for Saudi Royals who got to fly home on their private jets. Nobody asked why.

My father is A Retired Fire Chief, His picture is up in his Fire house. My father Came into the living room saw the planes hit and said, “I NEED TO GET DOWN THERE” and left. He stopped a City Bus, Put his men on it and drove it down to Manhattan, my father refused to take ANYTHING Free that they were giving out. We didn’t see my father for DAYS! He would come home and Sit outside facing away from the house. My Father Has never gone back down there and said he cannot, My Father Now has cancer but He Refused To Get $ For it. That DaY Was and is still Extremely Painful for Us New Yorkers. It Changed EveryThinG! Rest in peace To All Those souls taken that day, For the firemen and Officers running in while people ran out, Thank You for your service.
