"Chalk up one victory for insurers in the escalating asbestos-claims mOlOe:
the Port Authority of New York & New Jersey has lost a 10-year-old court
battle to get its insurers to pay more than $600 million for removing
asbestos from its properties, including the World Trade Center and New
York's airports. The judge ruled that asbestos abatement costs by themselves
do not constitute 'physical loss or damage' under the Port Authority's
all-risk policies. The agency is considering an appeal."

Not sure what that bit is about?
Agreed, but even so, you admit it yourself it would have cost $600 Million.
The North Tower had asbestos up to the 64th floor, the South Tower had little or no asbestos. I agree but even so, you admit it yourself it would have cost $600 Million.
You are wrong, it was fireproof to the 64th Floor.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asbestos www.vanderbilt.edu/radsafe/0111/msg00258.html
BTW I did this search in google and it came up with nothing about the 34th floor other than William Rodriguez...but hey he's telling a different story to the offical one, so he must be lying hey?

Change the 34th to the 64th and there is a whole heap of links that prove you wrong. Thats that debunked.
Did I ever say there was a requirement? I never said there was, but if the towers were to be brought down (because it was a white elephant and I'll explain that later) then the Asbestoes would have to be removed!
Proof of this or is this just your assumption? Why battle for 10 years and then do it yourself when as you say below, it poses no risk. As you say, where is the evidence.
Agreed but it's still a loads of money!
Sorry it was millions not billions (If I said billions, then it was because I couldn't remember the exact figure at the moment of typing!)
So they lost a 10 year court battle for $600 million, then end up doing it themselves. Even though you admit it was safe.

World Trade Center, New York. Built amidst controversy, including protest by the 1,600 small businesses evicted from their locations to make way for the complex, and the objections of the New York City government to the undervalued payments in lieu of taxes the state governments of New York and New Jersey were forcing it to accept from the Port Authority of New York, builder and owner of the Trade Center. By 1975 it lay half-empty in spite of the 25,000 New York State employees relocated to the complex by Gov. Nelson Rockefeller, who had championed the project all along. The buildings' fortune improved gradually throughout their lifespan, which was cut short when terrorists destroyed them on September 11, 2001. However, the complex was initially viewed as a monument to the stubbornness of Gov. Rockefeller, his brother David Rockefeller of the Chase Manhattan Bank, and Port Authority Executive Director Austin J. Tobin, for their insistence upon building it in spite of the declining value of Lower Manhattan commercial real estate at the time. This perception lent the World Trade Center's twin 110-story towers the early nickname Nelson and David.
Another question, if it was so profitable, why did the Port Authority give out a 99 year lease on it? Not because they were cost cutting were they??
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Larry_Silverstein
During the 1990s, New York was suffering from the effects of Black Monday (1987) leading to high vacancy rates at the World Trade Center. George Pataki became governor of New York in 1995 on a campaign of cutting costs including privatizing the World Trade Center. A sale of the property was considered too complex, so it was decided by the Port Authority to open a 99-year lease to competitive bidding.
I was hoping you would ask me this....Here goes...I have provided link for things that are still active, any links I've not posted can be backed up with a quick search on google.
In 1999, British intelligence gave a secret report to the US embassy. The report stated that al-Qaeda had plans to use “commercial aircraft” in “unconventional ways,”“possibly as flying bombs.” [Sunday Times, 6/9/02]
http://www.propagandamatrix.com/mi6_warned_us_of_al_qaeda_attacks.htm
On July 16, 2001, British intelligence passed a message to the US that al-Qaeda was in “the final stages” of preparing a terrorist attack in Western countries. [London Times, 6/14/02]
In early August, the British gave another warning, telling the US to expect multiple airline hijackings from al-Qaeda. This warning was included in Bush’s briefing on August 6, 2001. [Sunday Herald, 5/19/02]
In June 2001, German intelligence warned the US, Britain, and Israel that Middle Eastern terrorists were planning to hijack commercial aircraft and use them as weapons to attack “American and Israeli symbols which stand out.” Within the American intelligence community, “the warnings were taken seriously and surveillance intensified” but “there was disagreement on how such terrorist attacks could be prevented.” This warning came from Echelon, a spy satellite network that is partly based in Germany. [Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, 9/11/01, Washington Post, 9/14/01]
In late July 2001, Egyptian intelligence received a report from an undercover agent in Afghanistan that “20 al-Qaeda members had slipped into the US and four of them had received flight training on Cessnas.” To the Egyptians, pilots of small planes didn’t sound terribly alarming, but they passed on the message to the CIA anyway, fully expecting Washington to request information. “The request never came.” [CBS, 10/9/02]
Given that there were 19 hijackers and four pilots (who trained on Cessnas) in the 9/11 plot, one might think this would now be a big news item. But in fact, the information has only appeared as an aside in a CBS “60 Minutes” show about a different topic.
http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2002/10/09/60II/main524947.shtml
In late summer 2001, Jordan intelligence intercepted a message stating that a major attack was being planned inside the US and that aircraft would be used. The code name of the operation was Big Wedding, which did in fact turn out to be the codename of the 9/11 plot. The message was passed to US intelligence through several channels. [International Herald Tribune, 5/21/02, Christian Science Monitor, 5/23/02]
http://www.csmonitor.com/2002/0523/p11s01-coop.html
Russian President Vladimir Putin publicly stated that he ordered his intelligence agencies to alert the US in the summer of 2001 that suicide pilots were training for attacks on US targets. [Fox News, 5/17/02]
http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,53065,00.html
The head of Russian intelligence also stated, “We had clearly warned them” on several occasions, but they “did not pay the necessary attention.” [Agence France-Presse, 9/16/01]
The Russian newspaper Izvestia claimed that Russian intelligence agents knew the participants in the attacks, and: “More than that, Moscow warned Washington about preparation for these actions a couple of weeks before they happened.” [Izvestia, 9/12/02]
Five days before 9/11, the priest Jean-Marie Benjamin was told by a Muslim at an Italian wedding of a plot to attack the US and Britain using hijacked airplanes as weapons. He wasn’t told time or place specifics. He immediately passed what he knew on to a judge and several politicians in Italy. Presumably this Muslim confided in him because Benjamin has done considerable charity work in Muslim countries and is considered “one of the West’s most knowledgeable experts on the Muslim world.” [Zenit, 9/16/01]
http://zenit.org/english/visualizza.phtml?sid=9943
Benjamin has not revealed who told him this information, but it could have come from a member of the al-Qaeda cell in Milan, Italy. This cell supplied forged documents for other al-Qaeda operations, and wiretaps show members of the cell were aware of the 9/11 plot. [Los Angeles Times, 5/29/02, Guardian, 5/30/02, Boston Globe, 8/4/02]
http://www.guardian.co.uk/international/story/0,3604,724304,00.html
For instance, in August 2000, one terrorist in Milan was recorded saying to another: “I’m studying airplanes. I hope, God willing, that I can bring you a window or a piece of an airplane the next time we see each other.” The comment was followed by laughter [Washington Post, 5/31/02].
http://www.washingtonpost.com/ac2/w...ode=&contentId=A36296-2002May30¬Found=true
In another case in January 2001, a terrorist asked if certain forged documents were for “the brothers going to the United States,” and was angrily rebuked by another who told him not to talk about that “very, very secret” plan. [Los Angeles Times, 5/29/02]
In March 2001, the Italian government gave the US a warning based on these wiretaps. [Fox News, 5/17/02]
http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,53065,00.html
I could go on and on of other reports, but its getting boring.
Too say they did not recieve any warnings is almost laughable when you realise the failure of the 6th Aug 2001 Memo "Bin Laden Determined to Strike in US and George Tenets warning in July, unless you think Tenet is lying??
What about the FAA? Alarms would have been ringing as soon as the transponder was switched off. Yet there is another failure of communication!
Don't ever question my homework. I have studied all I can from this. It appear all you skeptics have accepted the debunker versions of events.
I think you need to do yours......[/QUOTE]
