"24 hard facts about 9/11 that cannot be debunked"

[Spanx]

And what does the bald faced liar have to say about it.

Looks like plenty of firefighters in the area of wtc7 to me.

I certainly wouldn't want to be standing near that building when it came down.

 

[IDB87]

How is it possible that within a few hours of making the decision to demolish Bldg 7 it falls into its own footprint?

The decision to demolish Bldg7 was never made. The decision that was made was to abandon firefighting and rescue operations.

According to Larry Silverstein the NYFD achieved in a few hours what demolition teams and engineers take weeks to accomplish.

It doesn't take much time to suspend firefighting and rescue operations.

Given that before 911 no high rise has fallen to its basement due to fire, this is not just suspect this is arguable proof of pre meditation given who made the statement. Can any poster propose a scenario that rebuffs the obvious?

When Building 7 collapsed it was arguable proof that building 7 had in fact collapsed.

 

[Travis]

I've gone ahead and color coded the list.

Red = Outright lies
Blue = Misrepresentations of true things
Green = Truths that are irrelevant


1) Nano Thermite was found in the dust at Ground Zero. Peer reviewed in the Bentham Open Chemical Physics Journal. ‘Niels Harrit’, ‘Thermite Bentham’, “The great thermate debate” Jon Cole, ‘Iron rich spheres’ Steven Jones, ‘Limited Metallurgical Examination (FEMA C-13, Appendix C-6)’. ‘Nano Tubes’

2) 1700+ Engineers and Architects support a real independent 9/11 investigation. Richard Gage, Founder. ‘Explosive Evidence’, ‘Blueprint for Truth’, ‘AE911′, ‘Toronto Hearings’, ‘Kevin Ryan’.

3) The total collapse of WTC 7 in 6.5 seconds at free fall acceleration (NIST admits 2.25 seconds). Larry Silverstein used the term “Pull it”. Steel framed high rise buildings have NEVER totally collapsed from fire or structural damage. Builidng 7 was not hit by a plane. ‘Building 7′, ‘WTC 7′.

4) Dick Cheney was in command of NORAD on 9/11 while running war games. ‘Stand down order’. “Of course the orders still stand, have you heard anything to the contrary?”. Norman Minetta testimony. “Gave order to shootdown Flight 93.”, ‘NORAD Drills’.

5) 6 out of the 10 Commissioners believe the 9/11 Commission report was “Setup to fail” Co-Chairs Hamilton and Kean, “It was a 30 year conspiracy”, “The whitehouse has played cover up”, ‘Max Cleland resigned’, ‘John Farmer’.

6) FBI confiscated 84/85 Videos from the Pentagon. ‘Moussaoui trial’ revealed these videos. Released Pentagon Security Camera (FOIA) does not show a 757 and is clearly Missing a frame. ‘Sheraton Hotel’, “Double tree’, ‘Citgo”.

7) Osama Bin Laden was NOT wanted by the FBI for the 9/11 attacks. “No hard evidence connecting Bin Laden to 9/11.” CIA created, trained and funded “Al Qaeda/Taliban” during the Mujahideen. OBL was a CIA asset named ‘Tim Osman’. OBL Reported dead in Dec 2001 (FOX).

8)100′s of Firefighters and witness testimony to BOMBS/EXPLOSIONS ignored by the 9/11 Commission Report. 9/11 Commission Report bars 503 1st responder eyewitnesses. “Explosions in the lobby and sub levels”, ‘Firefighter explosions’, ‘Barry Jennings’, ‘William Rodriguez’.

9) 100′s of firefighters and witness testimony to MOLTEN METAL ignored by the Commission report. “Like you’re in a foundry”, “NIST’s John Gross denies the existence of Molten Metal”, ‘Swiss Cheese’, “As of 21 days after the attack, the fires were still burning and molten steel was still running.” Leslie Robertson’.

10) ’5 Dancing Israeli’s’ arrested in ‘Mossad Truck Bombs’ on 9/11 that stated “We were there to document the event.” ‘Urban Moving Systems’ front company, ‘Dominic Suter’. “$498,750 Business loan (June 2001)”. “Officer DeCarlo’, ‘Art Students’, ‘Israeli Spying’.

11) On September 10th, 2001. Rumsfeld reported $2.3 TRILLION missing from the Pentagon. ‘Dov Zakheim’ Pentagon Comptroller. Former VP of ‘Systems Planning Corporation’ (Flight Termination System). Signatore of PNAC document.

12) 220+ Senior Military, Intelligence Service, Law Enforcement, and Government Officials question the official story. ’9/11 Whistleblowers’, ‘Patriots for 9/11′. ‘Robert Bowman’, ‘Sibel Edmonds’, ‘Albert Stubblebine’, ‘Wesley Clark’, ‘Mark Dayton’, ‘Alan Sabrosky’, ‘Cyntha McKinney’, ‘Jesse Ventura’, ‘Kurt Sonnenfeld’. “patriotsquestion911.com”

13) Towers were built to withstand a Boeing jet(s). “I designed it for a 707 to hit it”, Leslie Robertson, WTC structural engineer. “Could probably sustain multiple impacts of jetliners”, “like a pencil puncturing screen netting” Frank De Martini, deceased Manager of WTC Construction & Project Management. “As far as a plane knocking a building over, that would not happen.” Charlie Thornton, Structural Engineer.

14) History of American False Flag attacks. ‘USS Liberty’, ‘Gulf of Tonkin’, ‘Operation Northwoods’, ‘OKC Bombing (Murrah Building)’, ’1993 WTC attacks’. ‘Patrick Clawson’. Project for the New American Century (PNAC) needed “a New Pearl Harbor”, “Rebuilding America’s Defenses”. 9/11 Achieved those goals.

15) BBC correspondent Jane Standley reported the collapse of WTC 7 (Soloman Brothers building) 20 minutes before it happened. CNN/FOX/MSNBC also had early reports. ‘BBC wtc 7′, ‘Jane Standley’, Ashleigh Banfield’.

16) “Flight 93″ debris was spread out over many miles. Cheney admits to giving the order to shootdown 93. “shot down the plane over Pennsylvania” Rumsfeld, “nothing that you could distinguish that a plane had crashed there” ‘Chris Konicki. “Not a drop of blood” Coroner Wallace Miller. “there was no plane.” Mayor Ernie Stull.

17) Bush hesitated for 441 days before starting the 911 Commission. ‘Jersey Girls’. ‘Phil Zelikow’ already wrote the outline before the commission began. Steel shipped over seas. Obstruction of justice. JFK and Pearl Harbor commissions were started within 7 days.

18) The 911 commission was given extremely limited funds. $15 million was given to investigate 9/11. (Over $60 Million was spent investigating Clintons’ affairs with Monica).

19) Bush said he watched the first plane crash into the North tower on TV before entering the classroom. “The TV was obviously on.” Was informed about the second impact while reading ‘My Pet Goat’ to the children. Remained for at least 8 more minutes while America was under “attack”.

20) The PATRIOT ACT was written before 9/11. Signed into law October 26th, 2001.

21) Marvin Bush was director of Stratasec (Securacom, ‘KuAm’) which was in charge of security of the WTC, United Airlines and Dulles International Airport. All three were breached on 9/11. ICTS was another company that provided security at the airports. ‘Wirt Walker’, ‘Ezra Harel’, ‘ICTS”, ‘WTC power downs’.

22) “Who killed John O’Neil?”. Former FBI task force agent investigating Al Qaeda/Bin Laden. Transferred by Kroll Corporation to head the security just before 9/11. John O’Neil died in the Towers. ‘Jerome Hauer’ ‘Jules Kroll’.

23) Insider trading based upon foreknowledge. ‘Put Options.’ Never identified insiders made millions. ‘United and American Airlines’ ‘Raytheon.’

24) At least 7 of the 19 listed highjackers are still alive (BBC). No video footage of 19 highjackers or passengers boarding the 4 planes. Pilots of the 4 planes never squawked the highjacking code. ‘Alive highjackers’, ‘ACARS’, ‘Pilots for 9/11 Truth’.

 

[cjnewson88]

I concur.

Although a suggestion. Cheney did pass on an order to have UA93 shot down, of course he never 'gave' the order himself, and when it did come it was already too late, but it was there. Kind of.

The $15m to investigate 9/11 should be in red. I heard a figure somewhere that PENTTBOM cost $70m.

 

[jaydeehess]

As pointed out before, although the 911Commission may have gotten $15M, the truther habit of misrepresentation then characterizess the cost as representing all that was spent, ignoring FEMA and NIST.

 

[Travis]

Right. They are correct that the 9/11 Commission only got that much money but ignore that the commission was only a small piece of the investigation pie. In fact it was one of the smallest since its mission was very limited. The big pieces were the FBI and CIA investigations the true total cost of which may never be fully known.

DGM, thanks for your one line tiger.
“ The FDNY would be the only ones that would pull their fire fighting efforts. I don't know what you're talking about.”

That leaves me as my verbiage left you, unsure of what you are talking about.

About your statement “PANYNJ hold the purse strings for most of the insurance money.”
I and Larry Silverstein were under the impression that whoever held the lease on the structures, insured the structures....it’s in his lease...well he and his partner Frank Lowie’s lease. What the port authority has to do with the question of Silverstein’s insurance is beyond me.

Mark F, about “FDNY” ....that is the acronym that the “FDNY” use on their web site, NYFD and FDNY are both correct. So you must resist intimating that I am an imbecile thereby assaulting my credibility....many thanks.

I read the rest of what you had to say and I dismiss it. The bulk of your synopsis and quotes from officials has documented contradictory testimonies.
About your liner note and your ruse of credibility by using the Chief:
“What do the FDNY have to say about the collapse of 7? How about this from Chief Hayden;”

Should I quote you what General Colin Powell said about WMD’s.....get real there are anomalies and firsts.....multiple first, and that is why we are discussing it here on JR’s forum.
The fact that you will not entertain greed as a driver for human actions leaves you nowhere to go except to the tabloids.

"I read the rest of what you had to say and I dismiss it. The bulk of your synopsis and quotes from officials has documented contradictory testimonies". Really?

Isn't it precious you concentrate on frustrated snide remarks--what else can one do when faced with this kind of crap--instead of the thoughtful and time-consuming responses to your arguments that fill this thread?

Anomalies.

Since not massive completely occupied in use and energized and of rather unique structural designs have ever collapse and none hit by jumbos one would expect to see some unusual *things* resulting from the collapse of well over 1,000,000 millions tons of building in a very short time span.

Since this is not an every day occurrence or even a common one... what are anomalies may simply be artifacts of such monster collapses of occupied buildings. CD's are done to stripped out buildings and much smaller ones to boot... and mostly to concrete frames because the don't lend themselves to piece by piece dismantling.

There are many examples/lessons of mechanics (physics) and chemistry to take from the WTC events. This sort of analysis is beyond the expertise and comprehension of Joe Average. Joe needs to understand the world on his level and that's not a scientific education or profession and mostly informed by TV and Hollywood.

Hollywood has provided all sorts of fantasy which confuses (misinforms) people about the real world. And the truth community is not looking to explain *anomalies* with science but to use them as a basis to support their need for the event to be a CD / inside job / false flag. It's..."I never saw this so it's the result of CD"... of course without any explanation or mechanism.

Truthers are mostly trapped by and coming from a confirmation bias position. And they resist any explanation which crashes their beliefs.

That is not a reasoned appraisal from you T.
I posted....DGM gives me a one liner....Mark gets up me for an acronym....Jay gives me two lines that include “utterly simplistic” and “Aaaaahahahahahahaha,” I don’t care how you respond to such overtures, I respond how I like.

The only responses to the premise I poised by presenting the video’s and commentary came from JSanderO and I have to digest what he says....unlike the lot I named and your manuscript of four lines....thanks for replying though.

Thank you.

I've posted it in other threads, but it's just as applicable to the 9/11 CT's - many people have a world view formed by Hollywood popular fiction, not by reality, and it distorts their perception of events to the point that they believe the world around us is filled with evil villains and grand conspiracies - it must make a drab life more exciting, but it's a world view based on fantasy, not reality.

“What do the FDNY have to say about the collapse of 7? How about this from Chief Hayden;”

The fact that you will not entertain greed as a driver for human actions leaves you nowhere to go except to the tabloids.

Sonofgloin, your entire argument that 7 World Trade Center was destroyed in a controlled demolition of some kind is built on one tiny, flimsy piece of evidence - a single public statement by Larry Silverstein that is at best open to interpretation:

"I remember getting a call from the, er, fire department commander, telling me that they were not sure they were gonna be able to contain the fire, and I said, "We've had such terrible loss of life, maybe the smartest thing to do is pull it. And they made that decision to pull and we watched the building collapse."

Who is Larry talking to? Brent Blanchard? No, he is talking to the fire department commander.

And what are they talking about? The terrible loss of life.

And what else do we know about the condition of 7 at that time? We know it was burning out of control with no water pressure to fight the fires. We know the building was already being reported as unstable, having taken on a lean with creaking and moaning noises coming from it. We know this from all the FDNY radio traffic which reported these things at that a collapse of 7 would endanger rescuers working in the rubble pile of the Twin Towers.

To the rest of us, what Silverstein is saying is there has been such terrible loss of life already, and the 7 is in such a perilous state with out of control fires, no water pressure and the building starting to lean, creak and moan that lets get those first responders out of harms way so we don't lose any more people. That "pull" refers to people and not buildings is clear from the context of Larry's comments and corroborated by the statement I provided by Chief Hayden - a point I think you may have missed. I can provide more such quotes from other fire department officials if that helps for clarification.

The rest of us find that pulling rescue workers out of harms way is a far more plausible explanation of this statement than Larry admitting on national TV under no duress at all that he ordered the fire department to blow up a building for a motive that is at best unclear.

If after planning the most fiendish criminal act in all of human history Larry decided to very casually admit to the whole thing on national TV without any prompting whatsoever, where is the corroboration from other witnesses? If he could be broken with such incredible ease, surely someone else must have blabbed something. Perhaps over a pint at the local watering hole? Perhaps because he was not happy with his share of the insurance money? At least hundreds of people would have to be involved in this, yet not a single one has come forward? Heck, Larry would have had to pay off the entire FDNY handsomely - a department whose surviving members had just lost hundreds of their brothers. Do you really think that makes logical sense? How much money would it take for you to turn a blind eye to the deaths of hundreds of men you consider your brothers?

Where is the supporting physical evidence? Why were there no explosions? Why is there no blast-damaged steel? No remnants of detcord, no traces of explosive residue? How do you explain how these explosives that don't explode or leave any trace evidence even got into the building let alone survived nearly 8 hours of raging fires?

How do you think you would do if you presented this case to a prosecutor for presentation to a grand jury?

"Hey, I think 7 was a CD because Larry S. said "pull it" on national TV and I think that means CD. I have no other corroboration from witnesses or physical evidence and there is no motive because he didn't make any money on the deal. When is the trial date?"

I can entertain greed as a motive. But you have not presented a prima facie case for greed as a motive. Not only have you provided no evidence of any kind that a CD did in fact take place, you have not established that your primary suspect - Larry Silverstein actually made any monetary gain on the deal. Nor have you even attempted to establish how Larry asking the fire department to blow up his building (not in their job description) fits in with all of the other events of that day. You can't treat 7 as a seperate, stand-alone case. It was just one relatively small and unimportant part of a much larger event. If Larry Silverstein did 7, then he had to also do the Twin Towers, the Pentagon and Flight 93. You can't even start to have a case until you can show that link.

You know, you are not exactly the first person to come up with this. People have been failing with this case for more than a decade. It's been mined to death and there is just nothing here. I humbly suggest you move on to something more plausible.

Why did the National Institute of Standards and Technology not test for explosive compound residue in steel samples, only noting that similar compounds would have been present during construction of the towers. This seemed like an odd call, almost negligence given compounds degrade.
Then in 2006 NIST were given smples of dust (supposedly from the WTC) that had thermite compound residue, and they quite rightly rejected them as their pedigree was not assured. NIST was immediately petitioned to conduct its own studies using its own known "chain of custody" dust samples, but NIST refused.

The publics scrutineers did not do their job....why...they do more at a local homicide.

The problem is you people insist on making this into some episode of CSI / Criminal Minds. It's not that complicated.

One of the biggest aircraft in the world went as fast as it possibly could into one of the largest buildings in the world. happens. One of the largest buildings collapses wreaking havoc on the surrounding areas.

Because no trained and experienced criminal investigator would look at the ample evidence of aircraft strikes, fire and structural damage and conclude that the buildings must have been destroyed by means of a controlled demo job.


As far as "local homicides" go, if an investigator rolls in and finds a decedent with three seperate perforating wounds to the head and their hands tied behind their back, they're not going to be looking for a suicide note or water in the lungs.

About your statement “PANYNJ hold the purse strings for most of the insurance money.”
I and Larry Silverstein were under the impression that whoever held the lease on the structures, insured the structures....it’s in his lease...well he and his partner Frank Lowie’s lease. What the port authority has to do with the question of Silverstein’s insurance is beyond me.

I suppose that is the result of not knowing much about insurance.
As a condition of lease a leasee can be required to take out insurance on the property with claims payable to the owner of the structure. Same can apply to a simple home mortgage. A bank can require that in the event of total loss they are paid first, out of any insurance settlement while also demanding that the mortgagee pay the premiums.
Leasees can and do often also insure contents and chattel separately which is payable to the leasee since they are the ones who own it.

Furthermore even with a home insurance claim for total loss, the insurance company first asks if you will rebuild on the property. You can say yes or no. If you say yes you will receive compensation based on replacment costs. If you decide not to rebuild you will be paid less. The insurance company often pays out enough to start work then pays out portions as work continues and may require proof that work is continuing and may, if work stops, hold payment of the claim.
No one gets rich on insurance claims. Insurance companies are not in the business of giving away free money and making others rich at their expense. Your premise assumes that the company with the most to lose is either complacent or taking ordrs from the claimant. Both are ridiculous.

However in this specific case its obvious that you just assume rather than actually make an effort to find out, how the monies are paid out and to whom.

How is it possible that within a few hours of making the decision to demolish Bldg 7 it falls into its own footprint?

Assumes the consequent logical fallacy. False premise logical fallacy.

That is why I laugh at you

According to Larry Silverstein the NYFD achieved in a few hours what demolition teams and engineers take weeks to accomplish.

A statement not in any way supported by any evidence at all, I can only assume you made this up yourself. Larry Silverstein did not instruct the FDNY to demolish WTC 7, nor has the FDNY ever taken ordrs from real estate developers, nor has the FDNY ever been in the business of demolishing high rise buildings or for that matter any structures.

That is why I laugh at you

Given that before 911 no high rise has fallen to its basement due to fire, this is not just suspect this is arguable proof of pre meditation given who made the statement. Can any poster propose a scenario that rebuffs the obvious?

Ignores completely the specifics of this event and assumes malfeasance despite no evidence of it.

That is why I laugh at you

This piece adds more "obvious" scenarios needing to be explained. The detractors last statement of "reporters do your job...ask some questions" expresses the exasperation of those who for good reason do not believe the media.

Once again, nothing new at all. Nothing that has not been argued often and long in the pages of these forums, and, most importantly nothing that supports the view of the author, or you.

That is why I laugh at you.

Perhaps instead, I should pity you.

JSanderO” There are many examples/lessons of mechanics (physics) and chemistry to take from the WTC events. This sort of analysis is beyond the expertise and comprehension of Joe Average. Joe needs to understand the world on his level and that's not a scientific education or profession and mostly informed by TV and Hollywood.”

JS I will give you two unfathomable examples from the public record that Joe can comprehend that should have you asking why such acceptance of the official “story” when there was no investigation whatsoever.
Why did the National Institute of Standards and Technology not test for explosive compound residue in steel samples, only noting that similar compounds would have been present during construction of the towers. This seemed like an odd call, almost negligence given compounds degrade.

It is actually quite simple. No one tests for explosive residue unless there is some evidence that would suggest it is necessary. And no evidence was apparent. There were no beams cut in two by shaped charges. There were no blasting caps. There were no stray bits of detcord or anything at all to suggest that someone should waste their time testing for explosives.

Then in 2006 NIST were given smples of dust (supposedly from the WTC) that had thermite compound residue, and they quite rightly rejected them as their pedigree was not assured. NIST was immediately petitioned to conduct its own studies using its own known "chain of custody" dust samples, but NIST refused.

Um. No. What was found was dust that had spericles in it that were left over from construction. Nothing more. There was no need to waste time on them.

The publics scrutineers did not do their job....why...they do more at a local homicide.

No they do the same thing at a homicide. If they pull up and find a body with a gash on the neck they don't immediately send out an APB for a unicycle clown wielding an acetylene torch.

Travis thanks for your efforts, good post.

Thanks.
