  9/11 - Ten questions

 

Eric Hufschmid:

 "Painful Deceptions", Eric Hufschmid interviewed by Connie Bryan on 9/11
Architect Richard Gage: "How the Towers Fell", http://www.ae911truth.org/

 

 

1. The Twin Towers

 

 


The Twin Towers


The core of each tower contained 47 massive steel box columns


The wall consisted of 236 columns.

 

 

The Twin Towers collapse


Concrete clouds blew hundreds of feet horizontally.

2. The core columns shown above were discovered after the collapse. The angled cut occurs in exactly the manner that shaped charges slice through steel beams to control the way they fall. Notice the hardened once liquid metal.

 

 

 

 


3. What Caused Building 7's Collapse?
The 47-story building was 300 yards away from the nearest tower.
No plane hit the building. It collapsed 5:21 PM.

The claim that the collapse was the result of a fire requires the fire be equally distributed throughout the entire floor of the building, providing equal heat for an equal amount of time, so that all the load bearings members would fail at the exact same moment.

Do you find this plausible?

To bring this building down into its footprint required that all 58 perimeter columns and 25 core columns be destroyed simultaneously.

4. Businessman Larry Silverstein, who owned WTC7 and began leasing the twin towers a few months before 9/11.

 [PBS Home Video, "America Rebuilds", Larry Silverstein explains what happend]
   
"I remember getting a call from the fire-department commande, telling me that they were not sure they were going to be able to contain the fire, and I said, "You know, 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 then we watched the building collapse.""

 

 

 


5. At 21:54 GMT on 9/11/2001 the BBC announced that WTC 7 had collapsed. There was just one problem with this news: WTC 7 did not collapse until 22:20 GMT.

The BBC says this was simply an honest mistake.

21:54 GMT is 16:54 (4:54 PM) East Coast time, 26 minutes BEFORE WTC 7 actually collapsed.

 

 

 

 


6. Steel was the structural material of the buildings. As such it was the most important evidence to preserve in order to puzzle out how the structures held up to the impacts and fires, but then disintegrated into rubble. Since no steel-framed buildings had ever collapsed due to fires, the steel should have been subjected to detailed analysis. So what did the authorities do with this key evidence of the vast crime and unprecedented engineering failure?
The bulk of the steel was apparently shipped to China and India.

7. That damage to Pentagon didn't match a 757.
 WHERE Flight 77 hit - the nearly empty, recently reconstructed and strengthened sector?
 

 

 


Thierry Meyssan is a French journalist, political activist and author.Meyssan is best known for his controversial book 9/11: The Big Lie (L'Effroyable imposture), in which he presents a conspiracy theory challenging the official account of events of the September 11 terrorist attacks.



 



In 2002, Thierry Meyssan published the controversial work on the September 11 terrorist attacks—9/11: The Big Lie. The central thesis of Le Pentagate, that a Boeing 757 did not hit The Pentagon.

 

 

 

 

 


8. Captain Russ Wittenberg who flew 2 planes used on 9/11 doesn't believe official story.

 

Thu, 2007-09-13 19:21 — ABN
 
Former Air Force fighter pilot Russ Wittenberg, who flew over 100 combat missions in Vietnam, sat in the cockpit for Pan Am and United for over 30 years, and previously flew two of the actual airplanes that were allegedly hijacked on 9/11 (United Airlines Flight 175 & 93), does not believe the government's official 9/11 conspiracy theory... RUSS WITTENBERG:

"I flew the two actual aircraft which were involved in 9/11... Fight number 175 and Flight 93, the 757 that allegedly went down in Shanksville and Flight 175 is the aircraft that's alleged to have hit the South Tower. I don't believe it's possible for... a so-called terrorist to train on a 172, then jump in a cockpit of a 757-767 class cockpit, and vertical navigate the aircraft, lateral navigate the aircraft, and fly the airplane at speeds exceeding it's design limit speed by well over 100 knots, make high-speed high-banked turns,.. pulling probably 5, 6, 7 G's... I couldn't do it and I'm absolutely positive they couldn't do it."

9. Christopher Bollyn: How does a Boeing 757 disappear into such a small crater without leaving any trace of itself?
 

FLIGHT 93

 

Eric Hufschmid: "It reminded me of the phone calls from Flight 93 in which Mark Bingham calls his mother and says "Hi Mom. This is Mark Bingham." This is a sign that something is seriously wrong."

Here is the statement of an experienced airline pilot: “The idea of being able to use a cellphone while flying is completely impractical. Once through about 10,000 feet, the thing is useless, since you are too high and moving too fast for the phone to provide a signal.” (AVWeb, 1999)

Cell phone company Qualcomm has teamed with American Airlines to develop satellite-based air-to-ground cellular service. 7/19/2004.

 

Christopher Bollyn

American Free Press 2004

"American Free Press visited Somerset County to look into some of the questions surrounding United Airlines Flight 93, which allegedly turned over and crashed in a refilled strip mine between Lambertsville and Shanksville, Pa., taking 44 lives with it."

"One question, “is what happened to the physical wreckage of the plane?”

“There was no plane,” Ernie Stull, mayor of Shanksville, told German television in March 2003:

“My sister and a good friend of mine were the first ones there,” Stull said. “They were standing on a street corner in Shanksville talking. Their car was nearby, so they were the first here—and the fire department came. Everyone was puzzled, because the call had been that a plane had crashed. But there was no plane.”"

10. Rudolph Giuliani, Mayor of New York City.

ABC News Broadcast

Interview with ABC's then-anchor Peter Jennings, conducted only hours after the Sept. 11 attacks in New York.

Rudolph Giuliani: "I went down to the scene and we set up headquarters at 75 Barkley Street, which was right there with the Police Commissioner, the Fire Commissioner, the Head of Emergency Management, and we were operating out of there when we were told that the World Trade Center was going to collapse. And it did collapse before we could actually get out of the building, so we were trapped in the building for 10, 15 minutes, and finally found an exit and got out, walked north, and took a lot of people with us."

 

 

 

 

Theories:
Thermite

 

The idea that thermite or similar preparations were used exclusively or in combination with other methods to destroy the Twin Towers remained unexamined for several years after the attack, despite its merits.

Aluminothermic reactions are exothermic chemical reactions in which aluminum is oxidized while an oxide of another metal is reduced. Although high temperatures are required to initiate such reactions, they are easily self-sustaining once started due to the heat they generate. The most common example of an aluminothermic reaction is thermite, in which powdered aluminum reacts with an iron oxide. Because aluminum has a greater affinity for oxygen than iron, oxygen is transferred from the iron oxide to the aluminum, releasing a great deal of energy and leaving behind molten iron and aluminum oxide

Professor Steven Jones has noted that a number of features evident both before and after the falls of the Towers fit the theory that thermite was used.

 

Iron-Rich Spheres

Evidence in a report by the US Geological Survey (USGS) remained un-noticed for years: photographs showing particles with striking spherical symmetry, ranging in diameter from under 100 microns up to about 1.5 millimeters. Jones obtained WTC samples from several locations, including an apartment of a witness to the attack located across the street from the South Tower, and found spherules like the ones in the USGS photograph. His analysis showed that the spherules consisted primarily of iron, aluminum, sulfur, and oxygen.

Professor Steven Jones:
"I collected iron-rich particles in the dust by pulling a magnet across the outside of a plastic bag containing the dust, pulling upwards to the top the magnetic material and pulling this aside for further analysis. These magnetic particles were, as one might expect, rich in iron. There was a surprising amount of this iron-rich material. Although others have reported the presence of iron-rich particles in the dust, I was surprised to find the abundance of spherical particles in this iron-rich component some of which were considerably larger than previously reported. It was exciting to me to find for the first time iron-rich spheres up to about 1.5 mm in diameter in a 32.1-gram sample of dust."

 

These frames show the northeast corner of the South Tower seconds before its precipitous fall. The spout of orange molten metal and rising white smoke has the appearance of a thermite reaction.
