Chris,
Today one of biggest newspapers of The Netherlands called Het Algemeen Dagblad ran a frontpage story about new released footage of the attacks. This is the article translated into Englsh (used google translation and adapted it here and there).
Although clearly they do not go very far in the piece, it’s actually the first critical frontpage article about the attacks. I think first newspaper daring to publish it. The article also has the most comments and is most read.
Although the problems we face lie deeper, I do think this is a little success.

New images of 9/11 raise more Questions
NEW YORK - Saturday is the ninth anniversary of the terrorist attacks of 9 / 11. Exactly a week before commemoration of the attacks new images have emerged about the attack on the WTC towers.
On these footage, which have been kept secret all these years, appears Michael Hess, a famous U.S. 9/11-witness, close-up while he screams for help.
The WTC tower collapses.
Hess spoke earlier about a mysterious explosion in the second WTC tower after the collapse of the first.
His companion Barry Jennings (died shortly after 9 / 11 under suspicious circumstances) talked in his testimony to the BBC about dead bodies on the ground when he was leaving the building during hiss rescue. These new images look like to support the version of Hess and Jennings .
The images were stored for years at the National Institute of Standards and Technology, which is investigating the disaster. Under pressure from the ‘International Center for 9 / 11 Studies’ they have published the images on YouTube under freedom of information.
Crisis Center exit
Michael Hess and Barry Jennings both survived the worst attack ever on U.S. soil. They had a responsibility in the administration of the City of New York.
After the planes crashed into the WTC towers, the two went to the crisiscenter for emergencies in the city on the 23rd floor of WTC 7, a building near the two towers, that belongs to WTC complex.
Although the center (which was launched in 1999) was specifically designed to respond to a possible terrorist attack, they found nobody. Hours after the two towers collapsed, this building also collapsed together. The building was not hit by an airplane.
Explosion
Jennings testified after 9 / 11 on the BBC that he saw still steaming coffee cups, in the crisiscenter. Oddly Jennings died under suspicious circumstances just before his testimony on the BBC 9 / 11 was aired.
From the testimony of Hess and Jennings also shows that they heard an explosion in the stairwell and thus got stuck. Jennings stated that when he was eventually rescued by firemen they had to step over dead bodies in the. Strange, because by then the second WTC tower was still standing.
Mystery
Why these images had to remain secret, is a mystery. Hess is clear to see as he broke a window screaming for help.
The images support the story of Jennings and Hess and possibly their version of events can affected the care that clearly went wrong the day of large-scale attack on New York.
Even nine years after the facts, the mystery surrounding 9 / 11 is particularly high.
