OT: 9/11 Anniversary: Watch 9/11 Mysteries - How the World TradeCentre was demolished by the Neocons for an excuse to go back into Iraq

9/11 Mysteries

http://www.911weknow.com

Ignore those who would go to great effort and expend much of heir time
in poo-pooing this post. See for yourself what really happened in the
3 demolished buildings in the weeks before 9/11. Since 9-11 the
American public has shown a "remarkable indifference to being
deceived" (George Soros). But this is changing. As Hugo Chavez put it:
"The world is waking up. It's waking up all over. And people are
standing up." Millions around the world are realizing that they are
being lied to - not in a small, lazy way, but in a big way. It's time
to ask hard questions, many of which 911 Mysteries helps to answer. 90
minutes of evidence and analysis, filled with eyewitness testimonials.
Point-by-point review of the official story set alongside clear
science. The question is not one of politics or nationalism or
loyalty, but one of strict and simple physics. Does steel melt in open
air fires? What caused the core to vanish in seconds? No agenda. No
finger-pointing. Just the facts and the questions.

A story of people: Willie Rodriguez's strange recollection of noises
on the 34th floor. Who was up there, bumping around? Scott Forbes'
similar story, weeks before the towers fell. Here's how shaped charges
slice through steel beams to control the way they fall.

There is a LOT of circumstantial evidence that shows some
characteristics of a controlled demolition.

However I discussed this with a friend of mind who knows a lot about
blowing up things. I don't mean civil demolition.

He pointed out a vast number of problems with rigging two or three
floors of the WTC with demolition charges.

There were a lot of things in a live and running building like the WTC
that would not permit a normal civilian type demolition, apart from the
people that is :-) and they would be difficult to over come in a
military scenario for covert rigging for demolition.

Modern detonators are electrical and can be set off by a simple electric
pulse, things that are (in a covert military situation) good for setting
off explosives are the pulses from a fluorescent light striking (do they
have strip light in the WTC?

Air con compressors are also good for this... lovely spikes that can
fire a detonator. Any air con in the WTC?

Any other electrical equipment with puts out a pulse? CRT's for
example, elevators, static generated by carpets and computers.....

Of course modern explosives are quite stable. But they don't like
getting hot. They get a little unstable. So as long as the place is cold
it is OK.

Then there is all the cabling required. It can take a couple of weeks
to rig a building, and that is with all the contents stripped out in
advance and the cables and explosives very much in view.

You can't run cables down corridors and in to empty lift shafts or down
the stairs.

Apart from rigging and controlling the explosives the logistics would
require a hell of a lot of luck and or movement of a lot of people. It
would require an active operation going back 12+ months to get things
in line.

With hind sight some things do appear to be in place but some of these
were just coincidence and could not have been predicted or engineered,
not without a vast amount of planning and a large team. We are now
looking at a lead time of a couple of years and a lot of people.

That is a long time to plan an operation and has a lot of people
involved to murder a large number of one's own citizens in the middle of
one of one's own cities. Quite apart from the aircraft involvement.

There are far to many variables and far to many people for anyone other
than Tom Cruise or Bruce Willies to put it off with out it leaking
before or most certainly afterwards.

Any plan that could do this is open to many places where chance could
wreck it. Many places where you can't predict the future to be sure that
in 6 months time the window/person/system etc will or will not be where
you need it when you need it.

In short whilst there are some characteristics that look like a
controlled demolition there are other places where similar
characteristics have been seen and it was not a controlled explosion.

The other minor point to consider is that no one has seen a building of
this size and type come down like this before. Also no one has actually
tested anything this size before . All it needs is the concrete mix to
be a little out in that area (hot day, running short of sand/cement etc
something contaminated the water when it was mixed) and you have a
weakness that only appears when you bake it with aircraft fuel for 20
minutes.

There are as many more plausible scenarios than controlled demolition
which is just not practical.

Not to mention the tiny problem that the entire demolition set-up would
have been torn apart by a plane flying into the building just where the
charges were laid... Or is the idea that a demolition crew dashed up
into the towers after the planes hit, and rigged the whole thing in 20
minutes?

The mind boggles.

10 characteristics of conspiracy theorists
A useful guide by Donna Ferentes

1. Arrogance.
We know the truth, It's as simple as that.
>discover the truth: sceptics are always "sheep", patsies for Messrs
Bush and Blair etc.
You neocon you!
>2. Relentlessness. They will always go on and on about a conspiracy no
matter how little evidence they have to go on or how much of what they
have is simply discredited.
THEY always discredit it.... that's how you know it is a conspiracy.
>3. Inability to answer questions.
I did answer it! It was you who change the subject...... You did not
PROVE that the cost of coffee hadn't gone up 1cent in the restaurant
thereby signalling to the Moslems the attack was on.....

>4. Fondness for certain stock phrases. These include Cicero's "cui
bono?"
Precisely My Dear Watson.
>5. Inability to employ or understand Occam's Razor.
What has Occam got to do with this... HE wasn't there.
>Aided by the principle in 4. above, conspiracy theorists never notice
that the small inconsistencies in the accounts which they reject are
dwarfed by the enormous, gaping holes in logic, likelihood and evidence
in any alternative account.
No be fair people don't remember everything and get things wrong. Even
TV cameramen... (video is not 100% good at recording facts besides the
Jews in the Media can photoshop it afterwards)

>6. Inability to tell good evidence from bad.
Not at all. MY evidence is Good Your Evidence is Bad.
>7. Inability to withdraw.
Not everyone is a good Catholic...
>8. Leaping to conclusions
You just don't have any imagination... Now don't go quoting Newton at
me... He got it wrong.

>9. Using previous conspiracies as evidence to support their claims.
THEY covered up Kennedy AND keep Elvis locked up.
>10. It's always a conspiracy. And it is, isn't it?
Yepp I knew we would win you around...
Got to go the nurse is here with the tablets... THEY want me to take
them so I forget the voices.... only the voices tell the truth my
Precious....

What has it got in its pocketses....
I am going hide with Julius Caesar so the Nurse can't find me....
Damn..... she got me

Hmmmpf...

Hi My Bush..... George Bush.....

you think you are so clever!!! It's a conspiracy... That's how they did
it. The Muslims were trained by the Jews and CIA to hit the floor above
the charges.
>Or is the idea that a demolition crew dashed up into the towers after

My demolition's experts (T.Cruise, B Willis and S Stalone) can rig an
entire 200 floor skyscraper in 15 minutes (screen time) and blow the
building with 0.0001 seconds to spare.

So shove it.

1. Arrogance. They are always fact-seekers, questioners, people who are
trying to discover the truth: sceptics are always "sheep", patsies for

2. Relentlessness. They will always go on and on about a conspiracy no
matter how little evidence they have to go on or how much of what they
have is simply discredited. (Moreover, as per 1. above, even if you
listen to them ninety-eight times, the ninety-ninth time, when you say
"no thanks", you'll be called a "sheep" again.) Additionally, they have
no capacity for precis whatsoever. They go on and on at enormous length.
It's surprising how much in common there is in conspiracy theories and
religion. In both areas there are extreme fanatics which will ramble on
and on about their theory/religion, annoy people with their constant
preaching, will never listen to reason, and fabricate evidence to
support their views.

Without taking any stance of whether Intelligent Design has any truth
in it or not, just compare ID fanatics with 911/Moon/whatever conspiracy
theory fanatics. There are surprisingly many similarities in their
behavior and tactics. Both will claim to use scientific facts to support
their claims, while in reality they only use very selected pieces of it,
pulling them out of context and twisting their meaning. Likewise both
will use quotes from famous people or eyewitnesses, which seem to
support their claims, but usually these quotes are badly cut and pulled
out of their context, or the person who has said those things is either
an ID/conspiracy fanatic himself or in no way an expert on the field in
question. Both will dismiss any statements by actual scientists or
experts in the field if these statements contradict their views.

Conspiracy theorists also show deep religious conviction, completely
in par with the most religious people. Nothing you could ever say will
convince them otherwise, no matter how well-founded it might be. There
just is no convincing them, no matter what you say or do. They have seen
the light and they will not be turned off the "right" path, no matter
what. Unlike religious people, conspiracy theorists are, however, in a
worse position: Nothing they claim can be simply attributed to something
supernatural or something which is a matter of opinion. Instead,
everything they claim is something which should be real, can be proved
and should be verifiable. However, like true religious fanatics, it
doesn't matter. Even if they cannot prove anything, they will still keep
their religious conviction.
7. Inability to withdraw. It's a rare day indeed when a conspiracy
theorist admits that a claim they have made has turned out to be without
foundation, whether it be the overall claim itself or any of the
evidence produced to support it. Moreover they have a liking (see 3.
above) for the technique of avoiding discussion of their claims by
"swamping" - piling on a whole lot more material rather than respond to
the objections sceptics make to the previous lot.
The reason why conspiracy theorists cannot concede even on one single
point is that they need all of their arguments for their conspiracy
theory to be effective.

The main weapon of conspiracy theories is the so-called shotgun
argumentation: They present lots and lots and lots of little pieces of
"evidence". Not because there indeed *is* that much believable evidence
of a conspiracy, but because there must a lot of it for the shotgun
argumentation to work.

Shotgun argumentation works by two means:

1) The sheer amount of "evidence" might be enough to convince people
that something strange is going on. Basically the idea is: "There's
*this* much evidence that something is not right. Something *has* to be
wrong. There just cannot be this much evidence without something really
being wrong in this situation." Presenting just a half dozen pieces of
evidence might not be enough to convince anyone. However, present a
hundred pieces of evidence, and the likelihood of someone believing your
theory is much higher.

2) More closely related to the metaphor: A shotgun fires hundreds of
small pellets, while a rifle fires only one bullet. It's much easier to
kill a rabbit with a shotgun than with a rifle because the likelihood
that at least one of the pellets will hit the rabbit is much higher than
the likelihood for the single bullet to do so.
That's where the large amount of "evidence" works: The more pieces of
"evidence" there are, the larger the probability that at least one of
them will convince someone that there is a conspiracy. Even if the vast
majority of the presented "evidence" is not convincing, it may take but
just one which is convincing enough to make someone believe the
conspiracy theory.

For this reason conspiracy theorists cannot drop any of the arguments
they have been carefully designing for years. Dropping them would lessen
the likelihood of convincing people.

And this is, once again, another parallel with religion: This is the
mission of conspiracy theorists: To convince others of their own faith.
They will use whatever tools necessary to convince them. If evidence
must be fabricated to achieve the goal, they will do that. If twisting
what other have said is necessary to achieve that goal, they will do that.
8. Leaping to conclusions. Conspiracy theorists are very keen indeed to
declare the "official" account totally discredited without having
remotely enough cause so to do.
Moreover, conspiracy theorists go so far as to create a mentality
where terms like "the official explanation" is a complete synonym with
"a coverup", "a lie". Just the term "official" will have a big negative
connotation to them. Anything which is "official" is immediately
something to be highly mistrusted, most probably a big coverup and a
lie, and something you should avoid at all costs.

Another term with a negative connotation (to them) is "expert".
Whenever there's a statement by "an expert" which is against the
conspiracy theory, it's automatically dubious and must not be trusted.
Conspiracy theorists have effectively reversed the meaning of the word
"expert" to the point where, to them, it means someone who is *not*
competent on the subject or, at the very least, is someone "official"
and thus part of the conspiracy. To the conspiracy theorists, all
"experts" which do not agree with the conspiracy theory are either
employed by the government, or completely incompetent.

It's not even rare to see a conspiracy theorist write something along
the lines of 'are you going to believe some "expert"?' as if the word
"expert" all in itself was a sign of someone who is not competent, has
no practical experience on the subject or is in the conspiracy.

Quite inconsistently, if there is some "expert" which actually
supports the conspiracy theory, the theorists will immediately exalt his
achievements and expertise, and go to great lengths about convincing
people why *this* expert is to be trusted (while the ones which disagree
with the conspiracy theory should not).

11. Tapdancing. When questioned on the specifics of what they're talking
about, inevitably they will switch over to something else, in an attempt
to avoid exploring any one thing in enough detail to expose the farce it's
built upon.

This one thing is what makes interviewing conspiracy nuts in the media a
complete waste of time. Any thread they start could easily be chased down
to nonsense, but instead you get a big sloppy tangled skein that you end up
holding and looking like a fool. It's like that guy who used to spin plates

Have you seen the photos? There is no way they were not fake photos
It's always rather hilarious to read conspiracy theories about the
photographs taken on the Moon.

The problem with people who believe the conspiracy theory is that they
are told "this thing you see in this photo is a clear sign of the photo
being fake", and when they can't think of any explanation in 10 seconds,
they believe the claim, believe that the photograph is fake, never even
consider that there just might be a rational physical explanation, and
then get completely convinced by the conspiracy theory and will never be
convinced otherwise. Then you hear them say things like "the is NO WAY
this is a real photo taken on the Moon".

The thing is, all the "problems" the conspiracy theorists claim in the
photos are completely normal and to be expected, but when presented to a
layman who doesn't have all the information, it can sound pretty convincing.

Example: "There are no stars visible on the photos, thus the photos
were clearly not taken on the Moon." This might sound pretty convincing
to a layman who doesn't do his research. Heck, it can even sound
convincing to a person who has some experience with photography, if he
doesn't bother to think about it a bit or perform a bit of research on
the subject.
The answer, of course, has to do with the camera shutter aperture and
exposition time. Any person with the most basic understanding of
photography will understand this. The exposure of the cameras was set to
photograph the brightly-lit lunar surface, and the stars were simply too
dim to be captured on film. The exposure time was simply too short, and
the stars got underexposed.
It's actually the opposite: If there had been stars on the
photographs, *that* would have been suspicious. It would need to be
explained how you can photograph both the lunar surface and the stars at
the same time with the same camera settings, without badly overexposing
the lunar surface.

What else? You shouldn't be able to see things in shadows because of
the vacuum, and everything in shadows should be pitch black? Exactly on
which laws of physics is this claim based on? Can you give me a textbook
reference on this subject?
Let me ask you a question: When the sunlight hits the ground, what
happens to that light after that?
Hint: Why is it that you can *see* the ground in the first place?
Heck, why can you see the Moon from Earth?
Answer: The light reflects from the ground to all directions (not
completely evenly, but almost).
So second question: What happens to the light after it has reflected
from the ground?

Oh, you might have the objection that the lunar surface doesn't
reflect but something like 10% of the light? However, the Sun is
*really* bright, and 10% of *really* bright is still very bright, and
the cameras were tuned to photograph this 10% reflected light clearly.
The cameras were tuned to pick up this 10% of reflected light. Also, the
lunar surface is a HUGE reflector, so there's light reflecting from a
very large area, which sums up. Things like the spacesuits were very
white, and reflected a lot of that 10% of light back. It's to be
completely expected for them to be very visible in the photographs.
Vacuum has nothing to do with this. That's just a myth which the
conspiracy theorists want to spread because it suits their theories.
It's all about light reflecting from surfaces.

In fact, most of the photos corroborate that. Shadows *on the ground*
are pitch black, while eg. astronauts in a shadow are illuminated by
light reflecting from the ground. At the same time, in the same photo.
How can this be possible if atmosphere was the explanation for things
being visible in shadows? Shouldn't the ground in shadow also be
visible? No, because there's nothing reflecting light to the shadowed
parts of the ground. There's only a black sky.
The "shadows in vacuum are always pitch black" is just false physics
which is based on absolutely nothing but hearsay. The main source of
illumination is light reflected from other surfaces.

What else? Shadows which don't look parallel? Every single photo with
apparently non-parallel shadows has been replicated with scale models,
and even single shadow can be perfectly and very simply explained by the
shape of the terrain and perspective. It's not even that hard to see it
from the photos themselves.

What else? A waving flag? How can you see the flag waving in a still
photo? And how do you explain that the wrinkles of the flag are
*identical* in different photos, if the flag was waving in the wind?

And so on. "There's no way they were not fake photos" is pure and
complete bullshit. I have yet to see even one single photo which is not
easily and completely explainable with basic physics.

Moreover, believing what the conspiracy theorists claim about the
photos would require me to forget about what I know about basic laws of
physics and start believing in odd fairytales which are based on nothing
more than the odd ramblings of some lunatics.

But nothing will convince the conspiracy theorists. They cannot
concede even on one single point. They will keep onto every single claim
they make, no matter how ridiculous. The "no visible stars" is the
perfect example: It has an extremely simple explanation which anyone can
corroborate by experimentation, and any person with photographic
experience can corroborate, and it just doesn't have anything to it, but
no, conspiracy theorists just can't let even that one go. They have to
keep it. They have to keep every single tiny bit of "evidence" they have
come up with. They just can't let go. They can't admit they are wrong in
any of the examples. Not a single one.

Fire and lack of water for firefighting caused WTC7 to collapse.

The fire and lack of water were caused by the collapse of the North
tower, which was caused by fire which was started by the impact of a
plane with thousands of gallons of aviation fuel.

"direct" is your word and it is irrelevant to the description of

It is still the case that there was no direct plane impact on WTC7 and

The Harvard mk I was delivered on August 7th 1944. Colossus had been

The only reason Colossus was slightly limited in application was that it

It's true, the Colossus was actually turned on first, which is one of

Unless you have evidence of a plane directly hitting WTC7 my

You mean, there is no evidence of a gigantic building that collapsed right
next to WTC7, spewing steel bars and chunks of itself, including flaming
chunks of itself, at the surrounding buildings, and damaging the water
supply for the surrounding neighborhood so that firefighters couldn't put
out the fires in WTC7? Are you claiming that no photos of huge chunks
missing from WTC7 exist? (there were several huge holes in WTC7, on the
south side, which the conspiracy videos never show you). Are you claiming
that WTC7 was not on fire on all floors? (which it was... again, the
conspiracy videos don't show you this, since the smoke was pouring out
the south side, due to the wind). The reason WTC7 collapsed was because,
without water to fight it, the fire got so out of control that the
structure began to fail in ons spot, which then dragged the rest of the
building down with it.

I also suspect that a million tons of concrete and steel being dropped

There is a LOT of circumstantial evidence that shows some
characteristics of a controlled demolition.

However I discussed this with a friend of mind who knows a lot about
blowing up things. I don't mean civil demolition.

He pointed out a vast number of problems with rigging two or three
floors of the WTC with demolition charges.

There were a lot of things in a live and running building like the WTC
that would not permit a normal civilian type demolition, apart from
the people that is :-) and they would be difficult to over come in a
military scenario for covert rigging for demolition.

Modern detonators are electrical and can be set off by a simple
electric pulse, things that are (in a covert military situation) good
for setting off explosives are the pulses from a fluorescent light
striking (do they have strip light in the WTC?

Air con compressors are also good for this... lovely spikes that can
fire a detonator. Any air con in the WTC?

Any other electrical equipment with puts out a pulse? CRT's for
example, elevators, static generated by carpets and computers.....

Of course modern explosives are quite stable. But they don't like
getting hot. They get a little unstable. So as long as the place is
cold it is OK.

Then there is all the cabling required. It can take a couple of weeks
to rig a building, and that is with all the contents stripped out in
advance and the cables and explosives very much in view.

You can't run cables down corridors and in to empty lift shafts or
down the stairs.

Apart from rigging and controlling the explosives the logistics would
require a hell of a lot of luck and or movement of a lot of people. It
would require an active operation going back 12+ months to get things
in line.

With hind sight some things do appear to be in place but some of these
were just coincidence and could not have been predicted or engineered,
not without a vast amount of planning and a large team. We are now
looking at a lead time of a couple of years and a lot of people.

That is a long time to plan an operation and has a lot of people
involved to murder a large number of one's own citizens in the middle
of one of one's own cities. Quite apart from the aircraft involvement.

There are far to many variables and far to many people for anyone
other than Tom Cruise or Bruce Willies to put it off with out it
leaking before or most certainly afterwards.

Any plan that could do this is open to many places where chance could
wreck it. Many places where you can't predict the future to be sure
that in 6 months time the window/person/system etc will or will not be
where you need it when you need it.

In short whilst there are some characteristics that look like a
controlled demolition there are other places where similar
characteristics have been seen and it was not a controlled explosion.

The other minor point to consider is that no one has seen a building
of this size and type come down like this before. Also no one has
actually tested anything this size before . All it needs is the
concrete mix to be a little out in that area (hot day, running short
of sand/cement etc something contaminated the water when it was
mixed) and you have a weakness that only appears when you bake it with
aircraft fuel for 20 minutes.

There are as many more plausible scenarios than controlled demolition
which is just not practical.

Not to mention the tiny problem that the entire demolition set-up would
have been torn apart by a plane flying into the building just where the
charges were laid... Or is the idea that a demolition crew dashed up
into the towers after the planes hit, and rigged the whole thing in 20
minutes?

The mind boggles.

Therefore direct plane impact can't explain all the damage.

And you expertise that allows you to come to this conclusion is????

Unless you have evidence of a plane directly hitting WTC7 my
correction stands on its own logically consistent merits.


Fire and lack of water for firefighting caused WTC7 to collapse.

The fire and lack of water were caused by the collapse of the North
tower, which was caused by fire which was started by the impact of a
plane with thousands of gallons of aviation fuel.

"direct" is your word and it is irrelevant to the description of
what really happened.
It isn't even his word. Shrapnel thrown up by a bullet impact is as
"direct" a result of the impact as if the frags had come from the
original bullet. Ammo and its uses are designed around such facts,
and he can look it up.
Shrapnel /generated/ by the planes of "9/11" was part of the
original design of the strike, basically two 35,000-gallon Molotov
cocktails with human garnish.
And yes, there were/are probably more stressed-skin engineers
working in the Middle East than in the U.S., all that new
construction from Oil Money.
"More"?
All it took was one.

You mean, there is no evidence of a gigantic building that collapsed right
next to WTC7, spewing steel bars and chunks of itself, including flaming
chunks of itself, at the surrounding buildings, and damaging the water
supply for the surrounding neighborhood so that firefighters couldn't put
out the fires in WTC7? Are you claiming that no photos of huge chunks
missing from WTC7 exist? (there were several huge holes in WTC7, on the
south side, which the conspiracy videos never show you). Are you claiming
that WTC7 was not on fire on all floors? (which it was... again, the
conspiracy videos don't show you this, since the smoke was pouring out
the south side, due to the wind). The reason WTC7 collapsed was because,
without water to fight it, the fire got so out of control that the
structure began to fail in ons spot, which then dragged the rest of the
building down with it.

I also suspect that a million tons of concrete and steel being dropped
1500 ft a few yards from another building might just do a bit of damage.
Occam's razor seems to have been seriously dulled in some hands.
Another reason that smoke was pouring out of all the windows on all floors
of the south side (facing the collapsing WTC tower) but not the north side
(which is the only side the conspiracy videos show you) is because
shrapnel from the fall of the big tower took out all the windows on the
south side (as well as gouged huge holes in the building's face).

A short interval flash, with long exposure. This technique is use to

What's your point?
That *is* the point. WTC7 was just as much a casualty to the two main
events as the twin towers were.

Why do you hate this country, and the people who died on 9/11 so much?

Close but no cigar. They do deserve a lot, maybe even the majority, of

The main credit doesn't even belong at Bletchley. It was Tommy Flowers,
a simple General Post Office engineer who designed it. He had no
funding; it was a personal skunkworks and he spent his life savings on
the first prototype. Afterwards a grateful government gave him an award
- coincidentally just about covering what he had spent.

Oh, you might have the objection that the lunar surface doesn't

*really* bright, and 10% of *really* bright is still very bright, and
the cameras were tuned to photograph this 10% reflected light clearly.
That's quite right, but you also have to consider that the photographer,
wearing a very reflective white spacesuit, ALSO acted as a fill-in light
for the pictures. Professional photographers sometimes have an assistant
hold up a big piece of white poster board to do exactly the same thing. *

Are you claiming that no photos of huge chunks

From what I know no one has claimed that a plane directly impacted
WTC7. If you disagree please tell me.

Please tell me if you have evidence of a plane directly impacting WTC7
and leading to its collapse. If you do I will be happy to withdraw my
statement.

If you do not then I suggest that you read what I wrote again and
reread the, misleading at best, assertion I fixed. You might have to
look for the original post which claimed that two buildings were hit
but three collapsed and "Therefore plane impact can't explain all the
damage."

My fix was, and I repeat it here to maintain context since context is
very important here: "Therefore direct plane impact can't explain all
the damage."

Again, please tell me if you disagree.
