Richard Gage, AIA has been a practicing San Francisco Bay Area architect for more than 20 years, and is a registered member of the American Institute of Architects. Most recently he worked on a $400M mixed-use facility in Las Vegas NV. But he is also the founder and CEO of Architects & Engineers for 9/11 Truth, now numbering over 800 A/E’s, calling for a new investigation into the destruction of all 3 WTC high-rises on 9/11. Gage has spoken at over 100 events, reaching 20 U.S. states and 8 countries. He has been invited to present in 14 cities Australia, New Zealand, and Japan before the end of this year. As the anniversary of the events approaches, Gage tells WAN why he thinks there are hidden depths to the destruction of the World Trade Centre...
In all likelihood, you are unaware of the most important facts involving the destructions of the World Trade Center buildings. Nearly all the mainstream information sources and government officials have kept crucial information hidden from the public. This brief article will provide a clear explanation as to what actually happened to the Twin Towers and Building 7 (WTC 7) on September 11, 2001.
Architects & Engineers for 9/11 Truth (AE911Truth) is a non-partisan, non-profit organization now numbering over 800 technical professionals and thousands of other supporters dedicated to exposing the facts that point to the explosive destruction of all three World Trade Center (WTC) high-rises.
We are calling for a new independent investigation empowered to subpoena and question witnesses under oath. Well-documented facts prove the WTC high-rises were destroyed by explosives. The implications are grave, but we ask that you look at the facts. AE911Truth is also concerned that evidence has been distorted and covered up by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), the federal agency assigned to investigate the building collapses.
World Trade Center – Building 7
47-storey WTC 7 before destruction
WTC 7 was a 47-story steel-framed high-rise 100 yards from the North Tower. Even though no airplane hit it, it collapsed rapidly and totally on 9/11, in the manner of a controlled demolition. Despite its suspicious collapse, the 9/11 Commission report does not even mention WTC 7. NIST left its analysis of the WTC 7 collapse until 2008, seven years after the events, long after all the rubble was destroyed. NIST claims WTC 7 collapsed due to “normal office fires” which created a “new phenomenon” in high-rise catastrophes: collapse caused by thermal expansion of beams. NIST claims this caused the failure of a single column – the rest just followed.
Free-fall acceleration through 40,000 tons of structural steel?
NIST Forced to Acknowledge Free-Fall of WTC 7
In August 2008, NIST released the draft of its final report on Building 7. In that draft NIST claims that the building took 40% longer than "free-fall time" to collapse the first 18 stories. In a technical briefing that followed the release of the draft report Shyam Sunder, NIST’s lead investigator, denied that free-fall had occurred and stated that free-fall was incompatible with their analysis. He said, “… a free
fall time would be an object that has no … structural components below it...And that is not at all unusual because there was [emphasis in original] structural resistance that was provided in this particular case. And you had … a sequence of structural failures that had to take place and everything was not instantaneous.”
However, one of this article’s co-authors, David Chandler, used video analysis to show conclusively that for 2.5 seconds (about 100 feet) WTC 7 was in complete free-fall. He publicly challenged NIST’s claims at the technical briefing and he, along with others, filed formal requests for corrections.
NIST were forced to reverse themselves in their Final Report and acknowledged 2.25 seconds of absolute free-fall. Yet they did not reconsider how this was compatible with their analysis. A network of heavy steel girders had to be forcibly removed suddenly across the width of the building for eight floors. However, a free-falling object cannot exert force on anything in its path without slowing its own fall, so the structural support had to be removed by something else—explosives. The free-fall of Building 7 is a smoking gun.
World Trade Center – Commonalities in all Three Building Destructions
Complete Destruction Through the Path of Greatest Resistance
NIST claims that the Twin Towers collapsed due to the plane impacts and fire, and that WTC 7 collapsed due to fire alone. However, note that the Twin Towers survived the plane impacts and the jet fuel burned off in the first 10 minutes. Beyond that, all we have are not very large office fires. Over 100 steel framed buildings have suffered major fires, many much worse, yet none have collapsed. All three buildings on 9/11 fell through what should have been the path of greatest resistance – thousands of tons of steel – resulting in total dismemberment. This would require precisely timed removal of critical columns, which office fires cannot accomplish. Furthermore, a small falling top section would destroy itself before it could destroy a larger, stronger, undamaged lower section of the building. The impossible collapse is a smoking gun.
Molten Iron
The temperatures of the fires present a problem for NIST's claim that fire alone was involved. The melting point of steel is about 2800° F. According to NIST's own documents, hydrocarbon fires (e.g., jet fuel and office furnishings) generate temperatures only up to about 2,000° F under ideal conditions. NIST recognizes these fires could not melt steel, so they had to postulate elaborate mechanisms that might trigger collapse due to weakened columns and sagging girders.
Yet there is widespread evidence of molten iron in the rubble piles. Photos and numerous witnesses -- including fire fighters, cleanup crews, and structural engineers -- confirm the existence of several tons of molten metal under the debris. Some fire fighters described molten steel flowing like lava. Photos clearly reveal molten metal dripping as material is being lifted by excavation equipment.
Office fires are not hot enough to create the molten metal seen by dozens of witness
A video of the South Tower shows molten metal pouring out, glowing a radiant orange-yellow. Some have claimed this is molten aluminum, which melts at a lower temperature, but molten aluminum would be silvery in these conditions. This is molten iron or steel.
Jet fuel and office fires can’t create molten iron
At least three independent laboratory analyses of the dust that blanketed Lower Manhattan after the destruction of the Twin Towers reveal the presence of iron-rich “microspheres.” These spheres are formed when molten iron is sprayed into the air and forms droplets that cool before hitting the ground. The iron droplets indicate temperatures during the collapses much higher than hydrocarbon fires, in an explosive environment that could spray many tons of these droplets into the
air.
Billions of previously molten iron spheres found in all WTC dust samples
In April 2002, the RJ Lee Company was hired to investigate environmental contaminants in the Deutsche Bank, across the street from the World Trade Center. It reports, “Many of the materials, such as lead, cadmium, mercury and various organic compounds, vaporized and then condensed during the WTC Event.” The problem here is that lead vaporizes at 3200° F, some 1200° F hotter than is possible in hydrocarbon fires. A study of the WTC dust by the USGS for the EPA observed molybdenum-rich spheres that can form only above 4750° F. The high temperatures are another smoking gun.
Unignited Nano-Thermite in the WTC Dust
NIST did not even look for physical evidence of explosives. In fact NIST did not look at the physical evidence at all, apart from a few selected samples of the steel. The rest was destroyed. However, physical evidence did remain: the dust. NIST did not look at the dust, but independent investigators did. They discovered, along with the microspheres, tiny red-grey chips. They examined samples of WTC dust from different parts of Manhattan. All contained the red-gray chips. They found that the red layer consisted of unignited nano-thermite. Ordinary thermite is an incendiary: it can burn through heavy steel in seconds. The tiny particles in nano-thermite (1/1000 the thickness of a human hair) causes a much faster reaction so it can be used as a high explosive. The discovery of nano-thermite in the WTC dust was published in The Open Chemical Physics Journal in April 2009.
Hundreds of Red/Grey chips of “Unignited thermite” in every WTC Dust sample
Nano-thermite particle sizes are 1,000 times smaller than a human hair. This material is not made in a cave in Afghanistan.
These scientists found not just a smoking gun, but a loaded gun.
Independent lines of evidence prove the official government claims are impossible. We see our role at AE911Truth as exposing the evidence official agencies and the corporate media are covering up. Following up on the implications is the responsibility of every citizen. Every citizen must face his or her own conscience when confronting these difficult facts -- especially when we consider that 9/11 is the foundation for two wars, the launching of an endless "war on terror," and the loss of our freedoms due to legislation pushed through amid the fog of war.
Following Up on the Evidence
Here are some starting points for action:
a) Send the AE911Truth.org link to your personal mailing list and every architect and engineer that you can find. b) Sign the petition and demand a new, independent investigation. Volunteer. Become a sustaining donor. c) Write your local news media and representatives. Tell them to address the evidence. Send them the DVD, “9/11: Blueprint for Truth.”

To claim that the democratically elected government of the United States deliberately crashed crowded jet airliners into the World Trade Center in order to blame it on Muslims is beyond stupid and disgusting. For Architects and or Engineers to do so (or believe it) is even worse. Gage's views are not only bone-headedly stupid and factually incorrect, they are morally repugnant. Richard Gage and his organization should be shunned by the respectable portions of the profession. His writings are not fit to line the bottom of a birdcage.
The force of the aeroplanes hitting the buildings was of course tremendous, but not in relation to the size and strength of the structure.
The US has a long inglorious history of manufacturing incidents to start wars of convenience (Gulf on Tonkin, etc).
We all know that Bush was not in control, just a face for a collection of private interests.
Finally, stranger things have happened than a government killing a few thousand plebs for whatever ends they felt were worthy.
I wouldn't write it all off so easily.
Looking at the video's at the end of the article in particular you can clearly see the lines of explosions (not collapses) uniformly across the building (not in any relation to any damage the planes would have caused) You can also see some 'squibs' further down from the explosion lines, which are planted explosive going off slightly ahead of schedule (which is common in other controlled demolitions)
It is also VERY INTERESTING to note that those who call this article 'hogwash' have not actually argued against any of these facts presented, and launched straight in to a conspiracy theory argument, ignoring all evidence and going straight to asking why the American government would do such a thing. I can only assume there is no attempt prove this evidence wrong because the evidence is in fact correct!
Motive?? The start of 2 wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, which has allowed the USA to spend trillions of dollars on defence contracts, secure oil and other contracts. Money, resources, control, power. There have been countless loss of liberties in the 'name of terrorism' in the USA and the UK...
Well done Richard and the Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth - you are true patriots!
The debunking you so adamantly refer to has itself been thoroughly debunked. Sorry, pools of glowing molten metal in the bases were not molten aluminum for all the debunkers would have you believe. They were molten steel/iron. The government was even caught lying saying that there was no molten iron, when there are scores of credible eye-witness testimony that there in fact was molten steel in the bases of the buildings. Why lie about that? Probably because their is not a credible explanation, so the best course of action is to pretend the evidence doesn't exist.
And this is but a tiny fraction of the covered-up evidence. At this stage, there's so much evidence that not having a new investigation would be a crime in and of itself.
The Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth should be applauded for their efforts to expose the obvious controlled destruction of the twin towers and WTC7 on 9/11. Real science and logic cannot lie, people can and sadly all to often, do, our governments and media would never lie in attempt to manipulate - Would they !!!
Many thanks for reporting on this great and brave group of building professionals. This is so much more important than many think without consideration.
Best wishes
The problem is that people keep urging the government (the very entity who pulled it off) to 'investigate'. 1, it'll never happen, at least not in any meaningful or fruitful manner and 2, the must be a completely independent investigative body - not governmental not FBI, not affiliated at all with the likely suspects. Given that, the question becomes "HOW?"
The answer, of course is that "they" know this is the conundrum and will simply stall for decades. It's the same tactic pulled with the Kennedy's.
911 will always be a controlled demolition in my reference and the only way to get people to embrace the truth is to call it as such whenever referencing it. "The controlled demolitions of 911".
Additionally, we have numerous firefighters (http://www.firefightersfor911truth.org ), pilots ( http://www.pilotsfor911truth.org), military officials ( http://www.patriotsquestion911.com ), political leaders (http://www.pl911truth.com ), veterans (a href="http://www.v911t.org">http://www.v911t.org ), religious leaders ( http://www.rl911truth.org ), medical professionals ( http://www.mp911truth.org ), lawyers ( http://www.l911t.com ) and scholars ( http://www.stj911.com ) who express doubt over the findings of the 9/11 Commission Report.
"Condemnation without investigation is the height of ignorance." -Albert Einstein
Keep up your stupid debunking comments, its brings more people to the truth. 9-11 was an inside job...
When I watched WTC7 fall years after 9/11 I was puzzled. It took me 6 months of research to come around to Gage's viewpoint and I resisted strongly but the facts speak for themselves.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oO2yT0uBQbM
There was also Operation Gladio, AKA "The Strategy of Tension", a NATO operation which saw the bombing of train stations and other civilian targets in Western European countries during the Cold War by far right groups with connections to WW11 Nazis, and these bombings were publicly blamed on far left radicals and underground communist revolutionaries in order to demonize Western European leftists and communists and hinder their chances of winning in elections. (You can find lots of further information on these through any search engine).
US Columnist Sydney Schanberg made a very astute observation when writing about the runup to the first Gulf War. He remarked on the propaganda exercise run by the Pentagon and the Johnson Administration that was used to stir up public opinion against the North Vietnamese and justify the expansion of US military involvement in Vietman into a full scale war, i.e. The Gulf of Tonkin Incident, and said, "We Americans are the ultimate innocents. We are forever desperate to believe that this time the government is telling us the truth."
I watch with a certain measure of embarrassment those government shills and newscasters as they sell their souls to repeat a lie as they trade away their credibility for position and a paycheck.
Sooner or later critical mass is going to be reached and the whole ugly affair will combust in the public eye like a runaway brush fire. The president knows. His administration knows. World leaders know and those who perpetuated this treason; Mossad and the CIA, they know because they did it.
We are in a time of unveiling and for once it is not going to get swept under the rug. More rather the rug is going to be pulled out from under those who have committed this horror and many another as well. Millions are dead and displaced in the aftermath of their crimes..

Do you honestly believe that the buildings could be drilled, sawn to pieces, packed with high explosives dangling miles of wire and the debris silently hauled away in the center of the busiest city in America- all during a "suspicious" maintenance check?? None of the hundreds or thousands of people involved went to the press at the last minute to be a hero? None has come forward since to become instantly famous and the world's greatest whistle blower? (None of the conspirators was a Democrat, I suppose...) Pure, inane, mentally defective crap- no matter what puny non-sequiter "evidence" the charlatan waves in front of you.
Show me one milli-iota of evidence FOR the conspiracy - not non-sequitars that you require to be dis-proved. Burden of proof is on the claimant- WHO did it? Why? Most of all HOW, exactly, was this done??
The following week military grade weaponised Anthrax was being sent to politicians that opposed the Patriot Act, which uh, all written and ready to be published!
And don't forget the explosion at a nanothermite factory in France on 21/09/01 (AZF / SNPE factory in Toulouse)?
The pre-knowledge, share dealings, the FBI whistleblowers, no fighter cover, the E4B and AWACS that were flying on 9/11 and not reported etc
I don't think these are all coincidences?
Check out the 9/11 Families' "9/11 Press for Truth" for another view...
The NIST essentially called Larry Silverstein, the Aug 2001 buyer of the WTC complex a liar. Larry Silverstein had admitted "regrettably" to "pull"[ing] WTC7.
You'd sure think the testimonial Silverstein / NIST conflict would be a reason to skip a few Micheal Jackson News Tidbits - but NOT!
If you look at a tape of the NIST presentation of their never before documented phenomenon, Thermal Expansion (due to failed fire sprinkler system), as the cause of the collapse (do ya think, had the fire sprinklers worked the NIST would have pegged their pig in a poke as "thermal contraction"?), you will notice the news conference had to be shut down almost before any questions were taken because the lights were going on and off (AL KADA at the fuse box no doubt)!
So who did it? Larry's confessed "pull" or NIST's magical mystery tour newly discovered demon, "thermal expansion".
One would think, should the arguments of NIST and other G-facilitators be accepted, that the biggest service business in NYC would be the constant demand for replacement of steel boilers used to heat all those buildings. How many "boilers" in NYC have melted because the fire under them was too hot, or imploded (at 1 g) due to thermal expansion?

Wars occur because the debt bankers who make up the Federal Reserve Banking system make billions upon billions in interest from our nation's debt (it is by no small coincidence that the central banks in 95% of the world are run by the same families). Serving the banking interests come first. Also the defense industry has heavy influence - they also make billions.
Coincidentally, the CIA also gets most of their black ops operating budget from illegal drugs. Never in its history has Afghanistan produced more poppy (from which opium and heroin are produced) than under "US troop protection." They couldn't control the crop if the Taliban were still in control.
War leads to huge debt spending. Interested parties promote war and politicians whose coffers and campaigns need cash will abide, whether democrat or republican.
In addition to that, if you don't believe that government is capable of such a thing as involvement in 9/11 do a search of Operation Northwoods and let me know how interesting you find that reading.
Fo those new to the consideration that the official story is false, all you need to do is be open minded and prepared to look, if you do that you are 95% of the way to truth.
We know parts of what happened but we do not know by whom and why. Now that is the next part of the investigation that is needed and indeed, does lead to some interesting theories. Then again, a police crime invstigation usually commences with a theory or two that are examined, no matter how way out they might seem at the time. Every day in Courts throughout the world, a prosecutor puts a 'conspircay theory' to a jury because there is no direct evidence of the substantial crime. The prosecutor has to rely on circumstantial evidence. If the jury accepts that evidence, then they may find a conspircay proven.
Someone asked; ":what was the motive?"
Interesting theories have been put forward as to why. Some say to justify wars etc, It is possible that there could have been an original reason and other 'opportunistsic reasons' dovetailed with the first reason. Who knows, but we must look, as we know the official story is 'Hogwash'. [Bob Bowman; Lt Col ret. patriotsquestion911.com]

The second part takes a while and needs the help of a banking/financial expert, so I suggest it is passed on to somene who can help you. Best of luck.
(It must have been an "inside job" - no doubt!)
One doesn't need the peer-reviewed evidence of nanothermite (discussed extensively and seriously by the mainstream and science media of several European countries, but completely hush-hushed by the US corporate media closely connected to the overblown military-industrial complex and the highly lucrative "war on terrror") in WTC dust samples to see that random office fires cannot bring about the same results as controlled demolition.
It still amazes me how ignorant people are. First they claim it would be impossible to plant all those explosives to bring down a building, yet a simple office fire can do it so quickly and symmetrically. If memory serves me correct 78 floors of undamaged structural steel was left supporting the hollowed out plane impact area. That structure would have at least stopped or at worst slowed down the collapse of the top section. Free fall speed or any where near it is physically impossible. The buildings were clearly controlled demolition. So who rigged the buildings? Al Queda? Or sophisticated military black ops?
Also people wonder why the U.S. does not benefit from Iraqi oil. Because the U.S. is controlled by the corporations. It is a fascist regime. The oil corporations profit big because they can price gouge and the U.S. consumer must pay more, not less for these oil wars.
And the old Bush is too stupid to pull of 9/11... HE DIDN'T. High level intelligence operatives and mercenaries planned and executed 9/11. Bush only authorized the event. It's even quite possible that Bush was kept totally in the dark about 9/11 up until the events unfolded.
I have to hand it to the perpetrators. They are very good at brainwashing the general public to believe their lies and deceptions. Judging by some of these comments you have give kudos to the criminals.
A country ruled by mendacity and corruption cannot endure. I plan on trying to enjoy every minute of every day. For the powerful to condone mass murder, the stakes must be high indeed.
The federal government is now well empowerd to control civil unrest or seditious acts unfettered by Constitutional restrictions. Last year's systemic financilal meltdown may only be a prelude to a harsh and violent future.
This is something that you can analyze using ordinary mathematics or computer simulations. Dr. Kenneth Kuttler has done some math that might be of interest to a few people out there.
study
I applied his math to the Towers and found that they could not have collapsed in less than about 14 seconds simply due to the static mass of the intact structure being impacted from above by a falling block of floors (the calculations assume ZERO structural strength).
When you add back in the enormous structural integrity of the Towers, PLUS all the enormous energy sinks that are observed, it becomes obvious that there were violations of physical law in the building collapses.
For the top of the building to fall at an acceleration of 9.81 m per second per second, as confirmed by NIST, the thousands of tons of structural steel and concrete beneath the upper part of the building had to be literally blasted out of the way of the falling mass.
Anyhow, it is a fact that the fall of Building 7 was a controlled demolition: the building's lease owner Larry Silverstein said so: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7WYdAJQV100
Then, all the speculative mental chatter concerning, "how could they?", or "too many people would've been involved", recedes into irrelevancy, leaving one important question. "Now that I understand, what can I do to help rectify such an appalling injustice?"
It is not insane to believe that explosive charges can blow up buildings and other structures. In fact, such a belief is well-founded. When a crime is committed it is important to examine the evidence before coming to conclusions. That is what Richard Gage, Steven Jones, David Ray Griffin, Paul Thompson and others have done. Those who promoted the official conspiracy theory were already telling us what happened, how it happened, who did it and what should be done about it on 09/11/2001.
What's the motive?
"Motive is not an element of crimes. Therefore, prosecutors do not have to prove motive to be successful in a prosecution." Daniel Hall, Criminal Law and Procedure.
"The prosecution does not have the burden of proving motive...We needn't introduce one solitary speck of evidence as to motive." Vincent Bugliosi
Of course, providing a motive can always be helpful in obtaining a conviction. However, the broad motive behind 9/11 was to help bring to fruition all aspects of the neo-con foreign and domestic policy. 9/11 helped to remove all serious ideological and political opposition to them. If you agree with the neo-cons you have a post 9/11 mindset. If not, you have a pre-9/11 mindset.
Thank goodness, our justice system has better standards when prosecuting real crimes. That's exactly what we need for 9-11 to happen that has not happened yet -- a good judicial process, not an unaccountable cangoroo commission.
As for the motive -- you'll be surprised to know what people (and organizations) are capable of for much less than a few trillion dollars.
Silverstien got $7 billion and insurance company paid without a wimper :^/
. Yet somehow that building, the 47 Story Solomon Brothers office complex, collapsed in a perfectly symmetric fashion directly into its own footprint around 5:45 PM or exactly twenty minutes after CNN and the BBC reported that it had ALREADY collapsed. .
The whole 911 story stinks to high heaven. Our government has engaged in a massive coverup from day one. 3000 of our fellow citizens were murdered right before our eyes and we did not spend a second to find out who did it. Instead we put all our energy into chasing the patsy neatly provided to us by the liars in government and the prostitutes in the media.
. When the American public wakes up, there is going to be hell to pay. The criminals better start hiding now, because judgement day is at hand.
The government would have us believe that the masterminds of the operation pulled off the most daring, most devastating, terror attack in history...only to hide and try to deny responsibility? Only to let a panel of fatuous government stooges tell the world why they did it - because we're not Moslem and they hate our freedom, or some such infantile self-serving drivel?
That would be like someone robbing a bank, but leaving the money by the door on the way out...it simply doesn't make any sense.
The next suspicious thing was the fact that WTC2 fell down only 56 minutes after it was struck. Well that's simply not enough time for "fire" to heat much of anything up. Apparently the NIST fire simulation relies on burning jet fuel to spread the fire around quickly (assuming there's enough oxygen available in the first place which is also problematic). Yet the video evidence of the impact of Flt. 175 shows a cloud of fuel mist that had to be at least 70 feet in diameter at the instant it ignited (judging against the adjacent 208 ft wide building)...well I'm sorry but assuming a lower flammability limit of about 0.3% by volume, that 70 to 80 ft. spheroid of jet fuel mist essentially accounts for *all* the fuel on the plane, not 60% of it as I believe NIST claimed.
So NIST's fire simulation is wrong and everything else is wrong, and when the firefighters reached the 78th floor, the whole plan was in danger of being exposed so the murderers brought the building down then.
And the more you look, the more obvious the fraud becomes, perfectly reflecting the arrogance of the perpetrators and their contempt for the public intellect.
Thank you, Richard Gage.
This is because of a person patiotism. Americans are brain washed into believeing that being born on a certain spot of land makes you a better person even to a larger degree maybe than hitlers people were. Their rights were also taken away because of made up enemies. We had to create a false flag event (the gulf of tonkin) to confince voteing americans to engage in war in vietman and pretty much every war we have ever been in. The gulf of tonkin was where we told our allies in vietnam to attack our ship while fliing the flag of our enemy. Operation norhtwoods was rejected by kennedy but approved by all the heads of the pentagon and the previous president. It involved takeing control of aircraft by remote control and crashing planes with preferably athletes or students aboard.

Here you go...... from the horses mouth. 911 Commission members on the record saying they were lied to by The Pentagon.
Maybe some of you clowns should name call the 911 Commissioners now.
911 was a Fascist Coup. Almost everyone on the planet realizes this with the exception of Bush believers. You don't need to be an architect nor engineer to see the obvious. 60% of the 911 Commission members say they were stonewalled and that the investigation was stonewalled by a lying Pentagon.
The Vietnam War was based completely on lies: The Gulf Of Tonkin Incident, that actually never happened. 60k Dead Americans and 3 million Vietnemese all murdered by lies.
It's too bad your heads are so buried in the sand.
Unfortunately Obama is from the Zbigniew Brzezenski Camp. His "Grand Chessboard" set the tone for PNAC and 911.
THANK YOU RICHARD GAGE AND EVERYONE IN YOUR GROUP. REAL PATRIOTS.
As for a motive, a shock and awe effect, to mesmerize the american ppl into giving up our freedoms and going into war based on nothing more than fear. The US has LOOTED Iraq of its vast oil and gold reserves. Both resources have tripled in price since 2001.
Wake up, the world isnt all flowers and rainbows. There are some evil ppl that do evil things.

I think Gregg Roberts put it best...
"Rather than putting all this burden on us to answer detailed speculative questions, a fair approach will focus on the more than 100 blatant contradictions and gaps in the official story, which are extremely well documented by Griffin's books, essays by Kevin Ryan, Dylan Avery's film, and so on. Why should we as citizens put up with having such contradictions and gaps in the very foundation of the War on Terror, the expenditure of more than a trillion in defense spending, and the trampling of the Constitution? Even if all we skeptics had ever done was point to those problems, without suggesting an alternate explanation, it SHOULD mean that the US government has a lot of explaining to do. Instead, for some reason we are constantly being asked to speculate about things that other people KNOW the answers to."
We cannot ignore the obvious, gaping holes in the official reports for ever.
"Show me one milli-iota of evidence FOR the conspiracy - not non-sequitars that you require to be dis-proved. Burden of proof is on the claimant- WHO did it? Why? Most of all HOW, exactly, was this done??"
Since the overwhelming evidence OF a conspiracy proves there was one, now prompts you to ask the question where is the evidence FOR one? It shows you are starting to get it. I went through the same thing. The questions of "WHO did it? Why? Most of all HOW, exactly, was this done??" are EXACTLY the same questions WE are asking an independent and subpoena powered comittee to ask and DEMANDING answers too!!

Why was Cheney in charge, he is VP? Has has no military or constitutional authority.
Why was the president allowed to remain reading to children and remain in elementary school for 30 minutes during a crisis in which he was INFORMED that the US was UNDER ATTACK? Protocols were not followed. WHY?
Why were the President and VP allowed to testify in private, to preselected commissioners, not under oath, no recordings and notes subjected to white house approval?
The data from Able Danger was deleted or/is missing, who ordered it and WHY was Mohammad Atta's name removed from organization charts developed by it!?
Release the 85 videos of the pentagon attack currently held by the FBI.
Release all the supporting data behind the NIST investigations for independent review.
and the list goes on and on and on my friend, so we need all the help we can get..
Good luck to you and PEACE!

The rest of the claims are just as false,
1) Emotionally strong language - this is something that does not lend itself to reason.
2) Putting an alleged lack of motive above evidence.
Point 1 is defeatist. After all, if you can't use intellectual rigor, resort to emotion-charged words and win some points with morons. But, you won't win points thru reason.
Point 2 makes about as much sense as this. Denying that a bullet-ridden man was actually murdered because motive is not known. More than this, there was motive. The war with Afghanistan was planned well before 9-11 and the Patriot Act was written before it as well. PNAC doc's said there would need to be "a new Pearl Harbor."
It's really a slam dunk, but some people are not adept at ingesting red pills.
"Does no one fact check these articles before publishing? The claims fail to stand up even under the slightest examination. WT7 was heavily damaged by the collapsed WTC1and burned for hours before it collapsed. The Firemen saw that it was starting to buckle and pulled all their men out a full hour before it fell.
The rest of the claims are just as false."
"I walked around it (Building 7). I saw a hole. I didn't see a hole bad enough to knock a building down, though." -former NYPD officer and first responder, Craig Bartmer
Even NIST now admits that, "the damage from the debris from WTC 1 had little effect on initiating the collapse."
Of course the diesel fuel for WTC 7's emergency generators was something that seemed to have some promise, but no. They state that, the diesel fuel "played no role in the destruction of WTC 7," and that it was "the first known instance of fire causing the total collapse of a tall building," and that they were "similar to fires experienced in other tall buildings."
"When interviewees say in the FDNY oral histories that they were worried that the Twin Towers might collapse, it almost always turns out that what they were worried about was partial collapse--they worried, for example, that the portion of the building above the impact site might fall off. Almost without exception, they were staggered by the collapse that actually took place, which was sudden, violent, complete, symmetrical and extremely rapid." - SOURCE: Waiting for Seven: WTC 7 Collapse Warnings in the FDNY Oral Histories...

As to the rest of the claims being false, we can't wait to see your peer-reviewed paper backing up your strong words.

Any debris from the towers impacting Building 7 would have hit its south side, and any columns damaged by it would almost certainly be perimeter columns on its south side. Any fuel tank explosion would only be able to damage nearby structure. The rapid fall-off of blast pressures with distance from the source would preclude any such event from breaking all of the columns in the building.
view of WTC 7 showing entire elevation (Furthermore the very idea of a tank of diesel fuel exploding taxes the imagination, since diesel fuel does not even begin to boil below 320º F. 2 ) Fires have never been known to damage steel columns in high-rise buildings, but if they could, the damage would be produced gradually and would be localized to the areas where the fire was the most intense.
No combination of debris damage, fuel-tank explosions, and fires could inflict the kind of simultaneous damage to all the building's columns required to make the building implode. The precision of such damage required to bring Building 7 down into its footprint was especially great, given the ratio of its height to its width and depth. Any asymmetry in the extent and timing of the damage would cause such a building to topple.
Above quote from: http://www.wtc7.net/collapsecause.html
As for debris damage, the final official version on WTC 7 does not say that it was compromised by falling debris. NIST did, for years, toy with the idea that the debris from the North Tower caused or contributed to WTC 7's destruction. They also speculated about the role of diesel fuel stored in the building's generators. In 2006, NIST's lead WTC investigator Shyam Sunder said in an interview to New York Magazine: "But truthfully, I don't really know. We've had trouble getting a handle on Building No. 7."
In their final report in November 2008, then, they blame the total collapse on a "new phenomenon" (NIST's term) in building fires: "thermal expansion", which caused central column number 79 to fail, which was somehow (NIST doesn't explain how) followed by the failure of the remaining 80 columns during a few seconds, after which the building came at almost freefall speed to its foundations.
According to NIST, the failure (by whatever means) of column number 79 alone would in all circumstances have destroyed the skyscraper. The building had 81 columns, but NIST now says it ultimately depended on just one column.
Still, a few months ago a New York judge ruled that WTC 7 had not been constructed negligently.
Chandler is a high school science teacher who can't count the seconds in the collapse of WTC7. He says 6. In the actual video, it's at least 14.

Gage has never spoken in NYC where people can ask questions. Thisis where all the eyewitnesses and first responders are ahd they know his claims of man-made demolition are silly. He is an insult to witnesses.
From the article: "a free-falling object cannot exert force on anything in its path without slowing its own fall, so the structural support had to be removed by something else "explosives."
If you understand high school physics, then why are you still arguing?
"Those who have the privilege to know, have the duty to act." Albert Einstein
Why can't the nation that put men on the Moon tell the entire world the TONS of STEEL and TONS of CONCRETE that were on every level of the towers? The south tower deflected less than 16 inches when it was hit by 150 tons moving at 550 mph. There had to be a lot of mass in the vicinity for that little movement.
Keep an open mind. This is what those who perpetrated the inside job refer to as a "psychological operation", in short, a psyop. The goal is a punch to the stomach that renders people incapable of then ever being able to consider the facts as they actually were (in short, reality) versus the fiction that criminal elements within the government(s) push on the people.
Mark Twain said that "it is the responsibility of every citizen to love their country. The government can be a different matter altogether."
If neither explosives nor thermates were used to PULL down the 3 NY skyscapers, on 9/11/2001, it was God who destroyed the 3 NY Towers and killed or buried alive 3000 lives.
It's time for peoples to spend more time into this God-Do-It theory. God's done it.
You said, "the authors clearly hate America, and are anti-semitic."...
Ha ha ha ha ha, ha ha ha ha ha ha ha !!!!!
The authors are TRUE, PATRIOT Americans... on guard against ALL ENEMIES - foreign or domestic...
AND... the authors NEVER mention Israel or 'Jews' ! NOT ONCE !!
So what in God's all good Name are you talking about ?
And stop pretending to be a Christian will you? You are so transparent, you are bordering on ridiculous !
You say, "stop asking questions"...
If you were a REAL Christian... then you would have to have received the LOVE of the TRUTH...
If you actually read the Bible, you would know that God IS NOT the father of lies...
... "Jesus said to (the 'Jews'), 'If God were your Father, you would love Me, for I proceeded forth and came from God; nor have I come of myself, but He sent Me. Why do you not understand My speech? Because you are not able to listen to My word. You are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father you want to do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own resources, for he is a liar and the father of it.'"
- John 8:42-44
In my last comment I said, "Well, several years after 9/11, someone at the NYC Port Authority leaked documents that proved that the WTC were indeed designed to survive impacts of 757s flying at 600 mph."
What I meant to say is that the towers were built to survive the impact of a Boeing 707 traveling at 600 miles per hour (965.6 km/h). The kinetic energy of such a strike would unleash 5,554,980,000 Joules. Although the Boeing 767s that struck the towers on September 11, 2001 were each approximately 59,000 lbs. (26,770 kg) heavier than the Boeing 707s the designers of the towers had based their calculations on, the reduced airspeeds of the impact aircrafts (Flight 11 at 440 mph; Flight 175 at 540 mph) over-compensated for this greater weight, resulting in less kinetic energy expended.
The kinetic energy expended in the first strike on the North Tower by Flight 11 is calculated at a shockingly low 3,512,090,340 Joules, far below the 5,554,980,000 Joules the towers were designed to withstand and survive. The greater velocity of Flight 175 (540 mph or 874.8 km/h vs. 440 mph or 712.8 km/h for Flight 11), resulting in a kinetic energy calculation of 5,289,904,665 Joules, is still below the designers' allowance of 5,554,980,000 Joules for the towers. These calculations prove that the towers should have survived the structural damage inflicted on them by the impact of Flights 11 and 175.
For more on this subject, see my article, NOT SO DEEP IMPACT, at www.DNotice.org
It is therefore particularly disappointing to see WAN publish this kind of article, claiming as it is to be a publication for those of us in the architectural profession. The WTC collapse mechanisms are well understood, indeed publications such as NCE have covered them in some depth, and out building regulations revised accordingly.
I therefore very much find myself wondering why Mr. Gage has been given a platform.
Here is a link to 55 peer reviewed articles on 9/11. Enjoy!
http://www.journalof911studies.com/
Sheila Casey's article the Rock Creek Free Press (June 28, 2009) accurately stated:
"...most savvy 9/11 activists [are aware] that the truth movement has been infiltrated by...[individuals - both paid and unpaid - who have been] tasked with crippling activists in any way possible, and that many of the most strident arguments come, not from sincere researchers, but from disinformation agents intent on spreading confusion and discord. These [individuals]...can be expected to mount vigorous arguments against that truth, the better to keep the movement divided and to prevent a clear, cogent message ... from reaching the masses."
(Thoughtful, sincere readers quickly learn to identify posts/comments of this type. They're shallow, inauthentic, and formulaic. All are generated from the same "talking points.")
Later I started to be find myself in conversations invariably with non-engineers who in whispers would ask for my opinion to help them with their own suspicions. The freefall question is extremely simple and can be appreciated by anyone and I suspect even non technical people would find the video odd. When one starts to look more deeply one will find an endless trail of confirmatory evidence of a controlled demolition of these buildings.
But more importantly why was it that outside my proffesional life people seemed eager to discuss what was going on but within the ranks of structural engineers it would be proffesional suicide to openly discuss this.
I have come to the conclusion that my colleagues are surely not idiots and will harbour their own doubts however concerns about job security
Israel-first dual-nationals of AIPAC Willful major media disinformation Federal Reserve scam Anthrax intimidation 9/11 sham
If you recall, Donald Rumsfeld on 9-10-2001 said that trillions were missing from the "Pentagon Beuracracy" and that the "enemy is closer to home". Then this was all forgotten when the Giant White Asbestos Whales were destroyed with Bush reading to children and Whitman of the EPA saying it was okay to breathe micronized concrete and asbestos dust.
Satan is the father of lies, and all you commenting shills and self defeating skeptics are going to hell for not embracing or searching for the Truth.
I tried telling a few people about this to no avail whatsoever - so I gave up.
My hard drive which had accumulated 1 years worth of material on this was inexplicably wiped out one morning. I shipped the HDD to Maxtor who claimed that they had never seen this kind of failure before....sure.
Airplanes were hijacked by Arab terrorists. They deliberate flew them at high speed into buildings full of people. The buildings and jet fuel burned for a long time. The steel trusses deflected, and the floors collapsed. The structures fell down.
Occam's razor. End of story. Go to hell.
I would consider Mossad to be a major suspect. An organisation with sufficient logistics, people and funding to pull this off, even allegedly having people working inside the US government system. There were Israelis arrested on that day in connection, but later released. The Israeli Spy Ring Investigation the FBI was proceeding with in 2001, right up until September 11, was dropped when this bigger issue arose.
Mossad has motive aswell. Bringing terror home to the American populace helps remind Americans of what Israelis have to deal with all the time. It creates a pro Israeli attitude in the US, and the US provides helpful foreign policy and support during Israeli campaigns in the middle east.
The hijackers might have thought they really were on their mission. Their visas into the US were facilitated by CIA operatives, even after US diplomatic objections. The systems that stood in the terrorists way conveniently allowed them access on that day, from actual reports about the terrorists domestic activity ignored or supressed, through to all the defensive forces being on "wargame" exercises hundreds of miles away. Getting the planes into the buildings may have been achieved by baiting insane extremists bent on jihad and then opening the door and removing the obstacles.
Perhaps a bigger point is not to get too tied up in the "The US government did it". That's one suspect, but there are many others. The US government may look guilty, but may only be trying to cover their asses from their gross incompetence in preventing the events. Focus on the facts, such as there are remnants of explosives whose mass spectrometer fingerprint match that of commercial grade thermite.
Everyone needs to keep an open mind and keep questioning the event. I don't know what happened, but I believe what I see and I trust in science, and these don't gel well with the official story. I think the 9/11 Commission Report has large portions missing and other portions comprised of utter fiction. There absolutely needs to be a full and independent investigation of the attacks with the full weight of the law behind it and the power to subpoena and make legislative changes if warranted to prevent such things from happening again.
You are right but in WTC1/2 all the underlying stories of structural steel is not weakened by the fires and yet it gives way like shattered crystal. Also for WTC 7 NIST now claims that one column not impacted by the debris was heated for 6 hours (by what) and gave way a the entire building then collapse at free fall speeds. Wow I did not know steel framed building were so fragile. "Do you honestly believe that the buildings could be drilled, sawn to pieces, packed with high explosives dangling miles of wire and the debris silently hauled away in the center of the busiest city in America- all during a "suspicious" maintenance check??"
First off the WTC1/2 were both had elevator repairs. The elevators are in the center where all the steel center columns are exposed. Second radio controlled explosives do not require wires. Just sit on top of an out of service elevator and go very third floor and use spray on sawlgel Nano thermite and the radio controlled device. You bring in crates on pallets and close the elevator doors and work in private all day long. Contrary to this thinking they did not used big round bombs with fuses out the top with bomb written on the side like in the cartoons. The thing is the 911 commission knows they were being lied to here is an article where they state that fact in the Washington Post http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/08/01/AR2006080101300.html Here are the commissioners calling for a new investigation and many others who know that it was a lie http://www.911summary.com/ Here an American 2 star Intelligence general saying that a 757 did NOT hit the pentagon the photographic evidence of the impact zone says so. http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=general 911
The odds of 9-11occuring according to government script are approx. one trillion to one and yet there are those who simply will not believe the plain evidence of their eyes.
Now that it is firmly established that the largest portion of mankind has the cognition of a turnip I would certainly not blame any young person of ability if they became a thouroghly savage-minded stock broker, lawyer, banker, politician, fiat money printer or government whore. Idiot: The largest tribe on the planet---Ambrose Bierce; the Devils Dictonary.
Thanks WAN for doing the right thing and having the courage to cover in all likelihood the most important unresolved catastrophic event in America's history, which has now ramified into the world at large.
take the time to watch Richard Gage's 'Blueprint For Truth'
its time for some here to grow up and see the gangsters and their control systems that carry out false flag terrorism, rob trillions, blowup countries.... and lie and say every thing is fine
Hopefully, people are now aware that there is a sinister conspiracy of NWO Criminals who have hijacked our nation's foreign policy and financial system. They operate purely for their own profit at the expense of all Americans. Their only objective is to consolidate their power, destroy personal liberties, and enslave us in a web of debt and inflation.
Those who think Messiah Obama is a "change" from Bush Chimp are probably beginning to question their willful delusions. HE WORKS FOR THE SAME MASTERS. He was CHOSEN to be the next puppet (aided by their potent media propaganda apparatus). He is just the slick liar and BS artist they needed. Buy gold and silver bullion before the price rises massively. Take money out of insolvent banks to do this. Come to grips with the fact that this country and her citizens collectively are BANKRUPT. You cannot print money out of thin air, trillions after trillions, and expect anything other than mind-numbing price inflation and currency devaluation.
The Federal Reserve was another SCAM perpetuated on the people almost 100 years ago. Since inception, they have STOLEN all the gold and silver that backed our money and once belonged to THE AMERICAN PEOPLE and replaced it with TOLIET PAPER that has lost 98% of its value!!! And what did we get for it?!?!? MEGATRILLIONS IN DEBT!!!! We all have to pay taxes to pay the interest in this massive debt (the trillions in toliet paper Treasuries the govt has issued to grow itself to CANCEROUS PROPORTIONS). Say goodbye to freedom and liberty and say hello to TRYANNY OPPRESSION INFLATION and loss of LIBERTY!
Just .... Thank you
I've got an idea. Why don't we build two towers identical to the WTC and crash two planes into them and see what happens. I would bet my life that pretty much the exact thing would happen. I may not be an architect or scientist, but I do have common sense....which apparently is in short supply nowadays.
There's been so much death, we decided to "PULL IT" ?!
right..............
Or perhaps, these types of "engineer's" are paid shills for the military/industrial/congressional complex..... wow!, ignorant of physics or a paid traitor to the American People.... what a career!
Great Question.
"Were the demolition charges engineered in such a way that they could be initiated at a specific floor, depending on where the planes hit? Did the pilots have to hit the towers at predetermined floors?"
"Controlled demolition" is the thread that when you pull it unravels the whole "911 official conspiracy theory".
If controlled demolition is true, which available evidence proves beyond a reasonable doubt (Fire and gravity alone can not account for the energetic release, and free-fall accelerations exhibited by the 3 towers during their brief destructive phases, explosive residue is present in dust samples), then it seems highly unlikely that the true conspirators would leave the critical task of flying the planes into the towers in a precise way to chance (ie. in the hands of lap-dance-partaking "Islamic fundamentalists"). People are unpredictable, and the entire operation would have been jeopardized had even one "terrorist" missed a connection or got cold feet. The planes HAD TO hit the buildings to provide the "reason" for their ultimate collapse.
Far more likely is that the "terrorists" were dupes who were working for treasonous individuals within monitoring intelligence agencies. Their activities managed to provide a plausible back story, and their positions ultimately coordinated in a way that would place them at the scene of the crime. There is no shortage of reporting that supports this.
Also far more likely that the planes that struck the towers were controlled remotely so there would be no error. Again, the technology existed then, and was widely reported in airline industry journals.
Search engine Aidan Monaghan's research on 911blogger. He documents coincidental pre-9-11-01modifications to the towers in the subsequent impact areas, and remote flight control technology. Kevin Ryan also documents the tenants of the impacted floors and their coincidental connections.
Kevin Ryan has answered your very good question before, Scott. Basically, he explains that it likely didn't matter where the planes hit as no doubt the entire buildings were rigged for demolition. But the collapses/demolitions certainly had to start at the impact zones. Anything different would have been clear and distinct evidence of an inside job.
If you want to debate this issue or go to discussions about this subject then read the NIST Reports and go to forums.randi.org .
While it makes a good story to have some nutter write controversial remarks about a government conspiracy it is disrespectul to the government, the families and the architects and engineers who read your magazine. Every point that AE911truth make has been refuted, and many have been refuted in great detail.
"Chandler is a high school science teacher who can't count the seconds in the collapse of WTC7. He says 6. In the actual video, it's at least 14."
First, one begins to count upon GLOBAL collapse. One doesn't start counting when a piece of a building drops off or collapses.
Secondly, an ad hominem attack on Chandler because he is a high school teacher is proof that Big Al has nothing substantive to say, other than Chandler is a high school teacher.
Dean Jackson/Editor-in-Chief www.DNotice.org Washington, DC
If the buildings supposedly collapsed due to structural failure as a result of the fires, why wasn't there mounds of rubble 400ft high and why was nearly everything turned dust in the near free-fall speed of the collapse? Congratulations to WAN for having the strength to publish this article.
Look, the fact is that NIST tried to refute free-fall, then turned around and admitted free-fall. They have yet to explain how they initially stated that Building 7 took 40% longer that free-fall time to collapse, even though there is no video evidence to support that. In fact, video evidence seems to refute that assertion. They couldn't even get there own computer models to replicate the collapse of this building. Or even come close. We are talking about a 47 story steel-framed building reduced to a pile of rubble in 7 seconds. We are talking about two 110 story buildings designed to take a hit from a fully loaded 707 being destroyed in a way that defies logic. A smaller top section of ten floors completely destroying a lower section of almost a HUNDRED floors. How does a 10 story building crush a 100 story building? And in such a dramatic way? Its 30 ton steel columns being ejected hundreds of feet, on all four sides of the building at the same time, floor by floor. Building 7 was supposedly hit by a massive amount of debris. It stood 300 feet from the North Tower. NIST offers no explanation as to how 30 ton columns could have been ejected 300 feet, let alone how 10 stories crushes almost 100 stories. It's been 8 years and they still can't explain it. Can't explain what is not physically possible.
The architects who designed the WTC specifically engineered the building to withstand the impact of a jetliner. Yet, the engineering failed not once, but twice, plus a bonus third time regarding WTC7. Very strange.
Now, the BEST arguments I have heard against controlled demolition are: 1) Such an operation would require large numbers of people to carry out. Surely by now, an "insider" would have come forth and blabbed. But no insiders have "sung" yet. And then, there is 2) Isn't this a rather elaborate way to get Americans behind two pointless, empire-building wars? Wouldn't a "false flag" operation involving, say, the poisoning of a water supply, have been accomplished with fewer actors, and with greater ability to keep the lid on? I can think of a lot of ways of killing thousands of people that are a lot less complex than flying airplanes into buildings that have been specially prepared with thermite. Way, way too intricate.
Nonetheless, the evidence of the collapses themselves is very telling. Very, very strange!
Easy, the planes that crashed into the Towers were piloted by remote control. The "hijackers" were incompetent and couldn't even fly a Cessna, much less a Boeing passenger jet. Research "Operation Pearl" by mathematician A.K. Dewdney for one possible scenario.
I was on the staff tat Emery Roth Architects when they first made moves to decommission the buildings, and by all rights I should have been allowed to speak at Confronting the Evidence and other various 'truth' groups from the outset.
The issue here is WHO was originally involved, and what other persons are their sworn testimonies going to reveal? You can't have it both ways kids, you are either truly after truth, or you can forget the sovergnity of this once great nation.
Someday, I might just go to NY, or SF and let these people have a piece of my mind, but in all probability, they intend to keep doing more things just like 9/11 until they achieve another World war. At that point, who the f**** cares about the stupid Americans, or their 'prison-industrial justice system?'
Sorry but just because it is hard to believe, doesn't make it untrue. And if you are suggesting that the bombs were part of the terror plot then you are essentially asking for the same thing we are...a new investigation.
And last time I checked, if the terrorists hated your freedoms, they actually kind of one because you sure have lost a lot of them since the attacks, haven't you?
Truth be told there are HUNDREDS of things wrong with the official story. Investigate them all and then lets talk.
or not.
Has anyone yet tried to move this on to the next logical step -- official investigation
You are correct about Bush tho' , he wasnt capable then, and certainly not capable now of ever being able to mastermind something like this. Cocaine-addled alcoholics barely have the brains to clothe themselves let alone unleash this kind of evil on the world.
Oh, and its never been about oil as the left claims, nor is it about retribution as the right likes to think. This is all about moving pieces in the Grand Game. I guess you havent been paying attention while the US and NATO have moved 200,000 troops to the borders of Russia and China. They aint there for the view
.
The implication of what this means is staggering.
The only people who could have engineered 9/11 are those in the very highest positions of the federal government of the USA.
If American politicians can willfully murder 3000 people in cold blood for the sake of empowering themselves, their sponsors and their political ideologies, think of what these same criminals have in store for our immediate and long term future.
I have never been more frightened of the government of the United States of America than I am at this moment.
Calling for the Fox to investigation the missing hen-house chickens only benefits the Fox. The very act of allowing the Fox to submit the 'official report' on the disappearance of the chickens speaks poorly of the farmers. Can one blame the Fox when he gets angry?! "Hey, you idiots wanted me to investigate... well I did what you asked!" What we need to do is go back to the Fox and politely ask for another investigation, as there were some serious flaws in his first report! But know that when he gnashes his teeth and growls, that the Fox is sincere in his assertion "let's not tolerate conspiracy theories!" Why would he lie?! It was the cow!! He hated the chickens for their egg-laying abilities!!
When one considers 'who benefited'... it's pretty simple. We need an independent international investigation and those who are obstructing justice (ie failing to mention WTC 7 in the report etc etc etc etc etc etc etc........) need to be indicted tried as co-conspirators. Citizens arrest if necessary.
The clue is the melting engine blocks and metal as the smoke cloud came down on all the parked cars. You'll notice that only metal was melting and all the paper was not burning.
Meaning, I can't believe I have to be the one to let you in on the secret.
They used a chemical to "melt" the metal inside the building. When the smoke cloud came down, anything in the clouds way with a metal base basically melted in plain site. It's well documented, why no one can put two and two together makes me wonder wtf is going on with all these so called investigations that don't even mention the smoke cloud and the melting car blocks.
The fact no one even noticed the cars and engine blocks melting in the path of the smoke cloud, just makes me wonder if anyone is paying attention to anything other then their own mouths flapping.

Also note that in this video I am wearing not only a Harley Davidson T-Shirt but also a Harley Davidson baseball hat; obviously I am very patriotic and very American, unlike you 911 truthers.
"Staged provocations," they call it. A hoot for those into drama, invention, and military games. Picking the targets must be a great deal fo fun. The special thrill is that for them it is game but for others, it is real as death, whether the USS Maine Incident, or the sinking of the Lusitania, or the Gulf of Tonkin incident. Not just a video game kill, the real thing.
Dick Cheney and Jeb Bush in (http://www.newamericancentury.org/RebuildingAmericasDefenses.pdf) Rebuilding Americas Defenses say "... the process of transformation, even if it brings revolutionary change, is likely to be a long one, absent some catastrophic and catalyzing event 'like a new Pearl Harbor." They don't say "like Pearl Harbor." They don't say "like another Pearl Harbor." No, they say "like a new" one. A new Pearl Harbor! They are inspired at the very idea.
Nah! The Government would never do something like that! See no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil. Please do your own research or just go back to sucking your thumb.
These folks are Christians
Consider WHO ran the security for the WTC !!
ALSO consider that the ones who planned and carried out the attack were - for the most part - Israelis or dual-citizens of the U.S. and Israel...
Up to TWO HUNDRED of these ISRAELI spies/MOSSAD agents were detained before and after 9/11... these foreign agents were subsequently quietly deported back to Israel by another dual citizen !
To those saying "9/11 was an inside job"... you must understand that the 'inside' they speak of is controlled from OUTSIDE...
JUST like the Federal Reserve is !!
We need to focus on the presence of the un-reacted NANO-THERMITE... This is not something you can get just anywhere ! That and all of the 'asbestos abatement' work that was going on pre-9/11... this is most likely when the NANO-THERMITE was applied.
How else to reasonably explain near free-fall collapse of all 3 towers, and the molten metal pools in the debris pile of each tower? Some form of controlled demolition must have been used.
Those who believe the official conspiracy theory often say it couldn't have been controlled demolition because that would have required too many people and too much time and explosives.. but then how did some random damage
Here's the link http://globalresearch.ca/index.php?context=va
"World Architecture News"
Skimming through their almost 200 comments again reveals irreconcilable social polarization.
There is no reasonable doubt that 9/11 surely was an "inside job," by controlled demolition.
But, psychological
Don't ever give up Mr. Gage, and God bless you!
1. The collapses themselves violate the law of conservation of momentum. There is no way that all the solid structural steel columns and supports, especially all the ones below the impacts unaffected by fire would offer no resistance to produce near freefall speed without demolition.

2. The top section of the south tower topples to an angle of 23 degrees. Basic physics shows that the shift in center of mass due to the angle means that any torque imparted by gravitational pressure on the lower section accelerates the rotation. The base of the top section acting as a fulcrum. The more gravitational pressure the top section provides, the more toppling would occur. discontinuation of toppling proves the top section encountered no resistance, discounting gravity induced collapse
3. symmetric, even collapse is IMPOSSIBLE without demolition as all structural supports must be removed simultaneously across each floor, this is impossible in a collapse resulting from structural or fire damage, as even a slight integrity inequality ALWAYS leads to a messy uneven and in most cases partial collapse
4. Nanothermite was found in the WTC dust and analysed by top scientists, and published in the peer reviewed Open Chemical Physics Journal.
Why is there even a debate??!!!! Physics proves demolition, try to refute the science, you CAN'T can you............?
DEMOLITION PROVEN GAME OVER!
For the defense of our country cities are built in the desert and blown-up by conventional and nuclear weapons as tests. Air craft fuselage are placed on high-speed test rails and crashed into structures.
The government has the means to explore and resolve many of the issues around 911. So much money is spent more frivolously! Why not in the case of 911?
Because the government does not want the problems to be explored is the only answer. The official story does not hold under scrutiny. Most everyone knows it - even our government.
