Please, do not be one who breeds the neoconservative manifesto of war corporatism.
"Left" and "right" are paradigms.
I'm not a "conspiracy nut," but rather a truth activist.
It's about time that people dug deeper into things rather than just living in their own self-sufficient domain. Wake up to the collision course of mankind into a state of oppression and global catastrophe. It is closer than you can imagine. For those of you who go about your daily lives not caring for what is at stake or what has happened before you, please acknowledge that things are not always what they seem.
I play baseball for Mountain View. My friends are the batteries to my life. I like to learn about anything interesting. I love the lost art of magic and illusion.
If you would like to say something to me, whether it is offensive or not, I do not mind. Please do, say something. I don't approve of neocons, the CFR, the Federal Reserve and private banking interests, the Bilderberg Group, the PNAC, etc. and their propaganda for they are breeding the new world order. Ah, global domination. It's happening again. History repeats. It will be one hell of a ride for the human race.

9/11: A False Flag Operation
The day that forever changed America will almost always be remembered as September 11, 2001. From that day on, lives were forever changed, and Unites States foreign policy turned into an imperialistic manifesto of war corporatism in Iraq and Afghanistan, also known as the war on terror. Along with foreign policy, domestic policies have greatly changed through the destructive powers of the Patriot Act and Military Commissions Act upon the U.S. constitution. All of this has been a direct effect of the attacks of 9/11. The official story as to what happened on 9/11 was documented by the 9/11 Commission in their final report. In this report, four hijackings of four commercial airliners took place. American Airlines Flight 11 was said to have struck the north tower of the World Trade Center, and United Airlines Flight 175 was claimed to have impacted the south tower of the World Trade Center. Due to the damage and ignited jet fuel, the towers collapsed as well as building seven of the World Trade Center complex. These collapses were known as pancake collapses. Soon after, American Airlines Flight 77 was reported to have struck the Pentagon, and United Airlines Flight 93 was said to have crashed in a field outside of Shanksville, Pennsylvania. During the two hour period of the four hijackings, not one fighter jet was scrambled to intercept the knowingly hijacked aircrafts. Nineteen hijackers of the terrorist organization of Al-Qaeda, masterminded by Osama Bin Laden, were claimed to be responsible for the attacks that killed nearly 3000 people. Through the analysis of basic evidence, physical anomalies, eye-witness accounts, preceding events, and revealed foreknowledge of the attacks, one can uncover the truth of 9/11. Omissions, distortions, and disprovable claims can be found to contradict the official story. The events of 9/11 were carried out by criminal elements of the United States government. The official version of this historic event can be seen as an utter fabrication possibly produced by the Project For A New American Century, a neoconservative think-tank.
The World Trade Center Attacks
As magnificently as they were constructed, the World Trade Center towers were destructed through the use of explosives, and only to be done through an inside job. While it is believed that the impacts of Flight 11 and Flight 175, their damage, and their resulting fire caused the towers to collapse, there is no scientific evidence to support this claim. Using natures laws of physics, physical evidence, eye-witness accounts, and a little bit of common sense, the official version as to why the towers and building seven collapsed can be refuted.
In order to fully understand the collapse of the twin towers, the details of their structural design are required. The twin towers were composed of 200,000 tons of steel, 425,000 cubic yards of concrete, 103 hermetically sealed elevators, 43,600 windows, 60,000 tons of cooling equipment, and a 360 foot television antenna. The core of each tower was 87 feet by 133 feet, comprised of 47 box columns 36 inches thick, which gave the main support for the whole tower, whereas the 9/11 Commission claimed that the core was a hollow steel shaft. The exterior of the towers were also comprised of 236 columns. Each of these exterior columns was connected to one another through steel trusses beneath each floor that ran perpendicular to one another. Three feet of reinforced concrete was also between each floor. Each column of steel and each steel truss was bolted and welded together as well as jacketed in asbestos for fire protection (Henshall 88). Each base of each tower was built 21 meters below ground level for increased support. The north tower was completed in 1970 standing at 417 meters tall with 110 stories, and the south tower was completed in 1973 clocking in at 415 meters tall with 110 stories. Both towers were over-engineered to withstand major storms and the impacts of fully loaded 707s, which have a greater mass and force than a 767, as World Trade Center engineers like Les Robertson have even said. These buildings would sway with great wind forces and were built to withstand wind forces up to 140 miles per hour. Surely, the buildings swayed with the jetliners impacts, but only for a short time. The twin towers of the World Trade Center were engineered to nearly the best extent possible.
The impact of Flight 11, a Boeing 767, upon the north tower was at about the 94th floor where 10,000 gallons of jet fuel spread across the one acre floor and ignited. This was the same for the impact of Flight 175, a Boeing 767, upon the 80th floor of the south tower. Much of the jet fuel, however, ignited in the fireballs created by the planes impacts. Even though the north tower was hit first, the south tower came down first. The south tower burned throughout seven floors for 56 minutes before coming down. Flames in the north tower burned throughout eight floors for one hour and 43 minutes before collapsing. Keep in mind that no steel building in history has ever collapsed because of fire. For example, on February 14, 1975, a three-alarm fire broke out between the ninth and fourteenth floor of the north tower of the World Trade Center and failed to collapse. On May 4, 1988, a 62-story skyscraper in Los Angeles burned for three hours and spread over four floors and stood firm. On February 23, 1991, a 38-story skyscraper in Philadelphia burned for more that nineteen hours and spread over eight floors and again, did not collapse. Furthermore, on October 17, 2004, a 56-story skyscraper in Venezuela burned for over seventeen hours and spread over 26 floors and did not fall. Last of all, on February 12, 2005, a 32-story tower framed in steel-reinforced concrete burned for almost 24 hours completely eradicating the upper ten stories of the building. Although the top ten floors fell, the building itself did not collapse. It is very highly implausible and even more practical to say that the twin towers did not collapse because of the planes impacts and the resulting fires.
Additionally, it is physically impossible that fire from jet fuel weakened the steel of the towers enough to completely fail. Ordinary hydrocarbon fires like those in the towers, in a pure oxygen environment, can only burn at a maximum of 1800 degrees Fahrenheit. Steel begins to melt at a minimum temperature of 2700 degrees Fahrenheit. Witnesses even said that the fires were cool enough to walk away without the danger of burning alive (Henshall 87). These fires only burned up to one hour and 43 minutes at the maximum. Also, the smoke emitting from the towers was a very dark, black smoke. This means that the fires were very oxygen deprived, burning the available combustible materials like paper, wood, furniture, and other equipment. Since there were oxygen poor fires, they most likely burned near 1300 degrees Fahrenheit. The maximum temperature possibly reached in these fires was 1800 degrees Fahrenheit and, of which, is not hot enough to melt or even fatigue steel.
According to Sir Isaac Newtons laws of motion, one can determine how far an object will travel a certain distance in complete free fall. The first tower to come down, the south tower, fell in approximately 10.1 seconds. This is virtually at free fall speed. By using this equation:
Position= (1/2)(acceleration due to gravity)(time squared),
one can determine the time it takes for an object to fall. When calculated, by plugging in 417 meters and 9.8 meters per second squared, the time calculated is approximately 9.2 seconds. Like the south tower, the north tower fell at nearly free fall speed in approximately 8.4 seconds. Steel would fall through the air at the speed of gravity, but not through concrete. This, alone, is proof that the World Trade Center was not brought down by the fires and damages in the buildings. If the official version of collapse was true, it would have taken the buildings to fall with more intervals of time from floor to floor. Since it has been determined that both towers fell at virtually free fall speed, it is physically impossible that they fell with no resistance without a catalyzing force like that of explosives.
When viewing the collapses, explosions started from the points of impact in a synchronized fashion. Floor by floor, concrete was pulverized into dust and objects in the building were emitted from the windows at high speeds. Even the steel columns on the exterior were emitted at great speeds as far as 100 meters away from the outline of the buildings. Moreover, concrete would not simply just turn into dust. If a slab of concrete was dropped 417 meters above the ground and hit the ground, it would not turn into a fine dust like it did when the buildings came down. Even more astonishing is that, before the collapses, explosions were heard and felt at the base of each building. Hundreds of eye-witnesses reported that explosions occurred within the buildings, witnesses like Willy Rodriguez, a janitor of the World Trade Center, firefighters, police officers, and civilians (Griffin 27). These alleged explosions have even been captured on seismic recordings. In addition, after each collapse there were huge clouds of dust spreading through the streets. This occurrence is also known as a pyroclastic flow, common in all controlled demolitions. Another piece of evidence is the apparent demolition squibs seen below the collapsing lines in both towers. After viewing the evidence, it can be concluded that the twin towers were brought down in an unconventional demolition where synchronized explosives were set off in waves from floor to each preceding floor.
Numerous experts in physics, structural engineering, and the demolition industry believe the collapses were the work of well-placed explosives. Some of these experts include: Professor Wilem Frischmann of the Pell Frischmann Group and the City University, London; Michael Taylor, a demolition contractor from Pennsylvania; Van Romero, vice president for research at New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology; Steven Jones, a physics professor at Brigham Young University. Professor Wilem Frischmann said my current analysis suggests that the damage would not have triggered a collapse (Henshall 89). The demolition expert, Michael Taylor, believes that based on the videotapes, there were explosive devices inside the buildings that caused the towers to collapse (Henshall 89). These are just a few of the experts in the world that have come out publicly to say the towers, in no way, came down due to fire.
The collapse with the more obvious explanation is the collapse of building seven of the World Trade Center. This building came down at 5:20 PM on September 11, 2001, seven hours after the collapses of the twin towers. The 9/11 Commission makes no mention of this buildings collapse. This building was located two blocks from the twin towers and did not suffer significant damage, only minimal damage from the events earlier in the day which included two fires (Griffin 28). If these fires were, most likely, like the fires in the twin towers, they would have burned at about the same temperature of 1300 degrees Fahrenheit, burning the same types of materials. Building seven was a 47-story building framed in steel, very much like the twin towers, and was 175 meters tall. When this building fell, it fell in just under seven seconds. This structure also fell at virtually free fall speed. Once again by using this equation:
Position= (1/2)(acceleration due to gravity)(time squared),
one can determine the time it takes for an object to fall. When calculated, by plugging in 175 meters and 9.8 meters per second squared, the time calculated is approximately 5.9 seconds. The building fell into its footprint and had all the signs for a controlled demolition. The building had demolition squibs during its collapse which took out the main support columns. After the beginning of the collapse, a pyroclastic flow traveled through the streets, dust from pulverized concrete, like the collapse of the twin towers. The building, having all the signs of a controlled demolition, was said to have fallen due to explosives of demolition by the lease owner of the building, Larry Silverstein: they made the decision to pull it and we watched the building collapse (Griffin 28). The term, pull it stands for demolish. With the direct evidence of the collapse of building seven, it can be concluded that building seven fell due to well placed explosives of a controlled demolition.
As a final point, the evidence of sulfidated molten iron in the rubble of the towers and building seven stands conclusive. This sulfidated molten iron was found in the days and weeks following 9/11. Thermal analysis after the event showed hot spots in the debris of the World Trade Center. These hot spots were up to 1400 degrees Fahrenheit at the footprints of the buildings. From the hot spots and rubble emitted a white smoke. This white smoke was found to be aluminum oxide from the analysis of physicist and BYU professor, Steven Jones. From his research, Jones tested a sample of molten metal recovered from the World Trade Center and found it to be molten iron, which is a direct by-product of thermite. Thermite is a military-grade explosive composed of iron oxide and aluminum. When sulfur is added to these components, it speeds up the destructive effect on steel and is given the name of thermate. Visual evidence of thermate can be seen in pictures of the south tower at the point of the planes impact. A brightly glowing substance is seen spewing out of the tower and falling onto the street below. The evidence of molten iron and thermate only strengthens the fact that explosives brought down the twin towers and building seven.
Simply, by using a basic physics equation, the melting point of steel, physical evidence, and eye-witness accounts, it can be determined that the twin towers and building seven of the World Trade Center complex collapsed due to unconventional controlled demolitions. Just by using this, the official story of the collapses can be rejected completely. This mystery, unseen by many, can be now seen clearly and irrefutably. It is now clear that these buildings went up with the great development of man and the elements, and went down in the same way.
Flight 77 and the Pentagon
The third hijacking on 9/11 was that of Flight 77. According to the official story, at 9:38 AM, Flight 77 took a 330 degree turn at 530 miles per hour descending 7000 feet in two and a half minutes to bounce off the lawn of the Pentagon and crash into the ground floor. In reality, there were no significant parts of a plane. This is explained in the official story by stating that the ignited jet fuel vaporized the plane. Not only is this physically impossible, but the damage at the Pentagon is utterly inconsistent to a 757 striking the building. The evidence shows that there is no discernable trace of Flight 77 hitting the Pentagon, but rather another object.
The physical evidence that would support Flight 77 having struck the Pentagon is nonexistent. One only has to view the lawn at the Pentagon to realize that the aircraft did not even touch the lawn. Shortly after the impact with the ground floor, there was one hole that punched through three of the five rings of the Pentagon that measured approximately fifteen feet in diameter (Questioning 7). A hole of this size does not adequately fit the damage of a 757-200. Along with this incongruity, is the lack of debris from a 757 such as the fuselage, wings, seats, luggage, and the correct engines. There was one engine found at the Pentagon which measured three feet in diameter, which is much too small compared to the twin nine foot engines of a 757 (Questioning 7). Physical remains of Flight 77 ceased to exist at the Pentagon, which shows that another aircraft hit the Pentagon.
The official explanation as to why wreckage of the 757 was never found is because the intense heat of the jet fuel vaporized the entire plane. A 757 plane is mostly composed of titanium which melts at 1688 degrees celcius. Jet fuel, in a pure oxygen environment, would burn at a maximum of 1120 degrees celcius. It is, therefore, scientifically impossible that titanium was vaporized by jet fuel. Staggering as this, if the plane did vaporize completely, the 184 of the 189 victims at the Pentagon could not have possibly been identified. The universally accepted laws of physics confirm that 757 could not have crashed and not been identified.
Another piece of overwhelming evidence is the visual evidence at the Pentagon. Photos showing the aftermath of the Pentagon strike support the physical evidence and the claim that what hit the building was not a 757. Cameras on that day would have captured Flight 77 crashing into the Pentagon. These numerous cameras that would have caught the event on tape at the Pentagon have never been released. The cameras at a nearby hotel and gas station would have caught it on tape as well. These were confiscated within minutes after the attack by the FBI (Freedom Files 3). Eye-witnesses to the event vary in what was seen; some say there was an American Airlines jet and some believe there was a small aircraft. Both of these accounts could possibly be accurate, for a drone plane could have been used in place of the real flight. A plan like this was once proposed in the Operation Northwoods document in 1962. This proposed document planned the staging of fake terrorist attacks against the United States as a pretext to invade Cuba (9/11 Truth 9). The event of Flight 77 exhibits that a staged terrorist attack was carried out.
To prove that it was Flight 77, the Pentagon released five frames from a security camera showing the impact. What is rebutting is that it is not a 757, it is a smaller aircraft. Not only is there a small aircraft, but also present is a white stream of exhaust or fume. Planes do not emit visible white fume at ground level. Planes only do this at high elevations when the air is cooler and not diluted. Missiles do emit visible white fume which is one-third steam and glows white as it cools. This, therefore, could also be a missile and military aircraft. Indubitably, the object that hit the Pentagon is being covered up by criminal elements of the U.S. government.
The collaboration of compelling evidence of Flight 77 illustrates a comprehendible story of a false flag operation. In all likelihood, any aircraft that would enter Pentagon airspace would be shot down or diverted, but on 9/11 this did not happen. The story of Flight 77 remains to be debated due to the lack of visual evidence. One thing, however, is clear. There is absolutely no hard evidence to prove that Flight 77 stuck the Pentagon. All surviving evidence supports the probable fact that something other than Flight 77 hit the Pentagon.
Flight 93
The final attack upon the U.S. on 9/11 was the hijacking and crashing of Flight 93. According to the official story, Flight 93 was hijacked, but then taken over by passengers and deliberately crashed to avoid the hijackers target. When this plane crashed, it was said to have crashed with its belly toward the sky at an angle of about forty-five degrees. In analyzing the evidence of Flight 93, it can be determined that Flight 93 did not simply just crash. Due to less amount of evidence on Flight 93, its story can only be theorized with the limited amount of this evidence.
After confronting the evidence at the crash site, it can be determined that whatever occurred there was not the crash of a Boeing 767. The crash site consisted of a black, charred crater about ten feet deep in a shape similar to a plane. In this crater is nothing but small scraps of metal, none of which could be easily determined to be part of a plane. When planes crash, there are many pieces left of the aircraft, but most are identifiable. No discernable traces of the wings, fuselage, engines, or any parts of an aircraft could be found. Approximately thirty yards away from the charred crater is the edge of a forest, part of which was burned with snapped trees. Early reports from that day, reported that the field of debris was up to eight miles long (Henshall 155). A Boeing 767 with its weight, mass, and force would not hit the ground and skid for eight miles; it would be inconceivable. With a little bit of common sense, Flight 93 can undoubtedly be confirmed to not have crashed.
Numerous eye-witnesses to the event near Shanksville reported seeing a plane of military origin fly nearby. This type of account stands as speculation that Flight 93 could have possibly been shot down. Witnesses like Susan Mcelwain reported seeing a plane that had two rear engines with two upright fins at the side, or an A-10 Thunderbolt of the U.S. military (Henshall 155). The claim that Flight 93 was shot down can be strongly supported with accounts like these and with Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfelds slip of the tongue when he said the plane was shot down (Griffin 253). Even though the theory of Flight 93 being shot down seems to be mostly plausible, the lack of parts of the plane weakens the argument greatly.
The theory that can be considered most plausible is that Flight 93 landed at Cleveland Hopkins International Airport. The plane path took it right near Clevelands airport and was also reported later that morning by Liz Foreman to have landed and identified by United as Flight 93 (Questioning 3). While this is the only known report of the incident and is often rejected to be true, it easily fits to portray an accurate picture of what could have happened. This report could be completely accurate, but was rejected once it was proclaimed that Flight 93 had crashed. The theory that Flight 93 landed stands to be the most plausible of the many theories surrounding Flight 93.
Flight 93s story remains the most controversial of the events because of its lack of definitive proof like every other event of 9/11. Though the event of Flight 93 can only be theorized, one thing can be determined. The strange occurrence at the crash site was not the destruction of Flight 93. Without hard evidence of the official explanation, there is every reason to believe otherwise. Knowing this, information regarding what really happened to Flight 93 has been covered up on 9/11.
Al-Qaeda and Osama Bin Laden
The terrorist organization that allegedly claimed responsibility for the tragedy of 9/11 was Al-Qaeda and Osama Bin Laden, even though this can be disproven. In December 2001, the confession tape of Bin Laden, a known CIA tactician, was released by the U.S. government. This video shows Bin Laden confessing his guilt for the events. One glaring piece of evidence that this video is not valid is the fact that Bin Laden is wearing a watch, a ring, and has seemingly different facial features. Being known as an Islamic extremist, Bin Laden would not wear a watch and a ring, for it is against Islamic law. He is also writing with his right hand even though he is said to be left-handed by the FBI (Henshall 162). With this in mind, Bin Laden also denied having anything to do with 9/11 in an interview shortly after 9/11: I stress that I have not carried out this act, which appears to have been carried out by individuals with their own motivation (Henshall 163). The FBI even admits that there is not hard proof that Bin Laden was behind the attacks (Henshall 163). Statements like these demonstrate that Al-Qaeda, an organization once funded and trained by the United States, was not responsible for September 11th. In addition, Bin Laden is on the FBIs most wanted terrorist list. On his wanted poster, it has no mention of the September 11th attacks. The evidence disproving Al-Qaedas and Bin Ladens involvement gives surmountable evidence to 9/11 being an inside job.
All of this documented evidence portrays a picture of an inside job. This brief analysis of the events of 9/11, are only but a few smoking guns to disprove the official story. Hundreds upon thousands of other anomalies exist on top of these previously presented. September 11th, 2001, was a pretext for expansion in U.S. interests and U.S. globalization created by a minority of individuals. The sacrifices being made and the demand for answers are becoming greater by each passing moment. Until there is solid proof that Al-Qaeda penetrated the worlds most powerful defense system and carried out the attacks, the people of the world have every reason to believe otherwise. Catch the real terrorists of 9/11; ask questions and demand answers.

Controlled Demolition of the World Trade Center
Timo's physics essay:
On September 11, 2001, the twin towers and building seven of the World Trade Center complex were brought down as magnificently as they were built. The twin towers were the attention grabbers of the New York skyline. The twin towers were structural marvels of their time as the tallest buildings in the world until the Sears Tower was built. Building seven of the World Trade Center was half the height of the twin towers and was said to have fallen in the same way as the twin towers. The 9/11 Commission claimed that these buildings fell because fire weakened the steel, buckled, then fell. This is known as the pancake theory. However, the only possible way that these buildings fell is by an alternate force, most likely the use of explosives. Using natures laws of physics and a little bit of common sense, the pancake theory can be refuted as being the reason why the twin towers and building seven of the World Trade Center fell.
To fully understand the collapse of the twin towers, the details of its structural design are required. The twin towers were composed of 200,000 tons of steel, 425,000 cubic yards of concrete, had 103 hermetically sealed elevators, 43,600 windows, 60,000 tons of cooling equipment, and a 360 foot television antenna. The core of each tower was 87 ft. x 133 ft., comprised of 47 box columns 36 in. x 16 in. thick which gave the main support for the whole tower. The exterior of the towers were comprised of 236 exterior columns. Beneath each floor were steel trusses that ran perpendicular to one another that connected each exterior column with one another. Three feet of reinforced concrete was also between each floor. Each column of steel and each steel truss were bolted together as well as jacketed in asbestos for fire protection (Henshall 88). Each base of each tower was built 21 meters below ground level for increased support. The north tower was completed in 1970 standing at 417 meters tall with 110 stories. The south tower was completed in 1973 clocking in at 415 meters tall with 110 stories. Both towers were over-engineered to withstand major storms and the impacts of large airliners, as World Trade Center engineers like Les Robertson has even said. These buildings would sway with great wind forces and were built to withstand wind forces of up to 140 miles per hour. The buildings swayed with the jetliners impacts but only for a short time. The twin towers of the World Trade Center were engineered to nearly the best extent possible in their time.
The impact of the first 767 upon the north tower was at about the 94th floor where it was said that 10,000 gallons of kerosene spread across the one acre floor and ignited. This was the same for the impact of the 767 upon the 80th floor of the south tower. Much of the jet fuel, however, ignited in the fireballs created by the planes impacts. The south tower, which was hit after the north tower, went down first. The fire in the south tower burned over 4 to 7 floors for 56 minutes before coming down. The fire in the north tower burned over 4 to 8 floors for one hour and 43 minutes before collapsing. Keep in mind that no steel building in history has ever collapsed because of fire. For example, on February 14, 1975, a three alarm fire broke out between the 9th and 14th floor of the north tower of the World Trade Center and failed to collapse. On May 4, 1988, a 62 story skyscraper in Los Angeles burned for three hours and spread over four floors and stood firm. On February 23, 1991, a 38 story skyscraper in Philadelphia burned for more that 19 hours and spread over eight floors and again, did not collapse. On October 17, 2004, a 56 story skyscraper in Venezuela burned for over 17 hours and spread over 26 floors and did not fall. On February 12, 2005, a 32 story tower framed in steel-reinforced concrete burned for almost 24 hours completely eradicating the upper 10 stories of the building. Although the top 10 floors fell, the building itself did not collapse. It is very highly unlikely and even more practical to say that the twin towers did not collapse because of fire.
Additionally, it is physically impossible that fire from kerosene weakened the steel of the towers enough to completely fail. Ordinary hydrocarbon fires like those in the towers, in a pure oxygen environment, can only burn at a maximum of 1800 degrees Fahrenheit. Steel begins to fatigue at a minimum temperature of 2700 degrees Fahrenheit for a few hours. Witnesses even said that the fires were cool enough to walk away without the danger of burning alive (Henshall 87). These fires only burned up to one hour and 43 minutes at the maximum. Also, the smoke emitting from the towers was a very dark and black smoke. This means that the fires were very oxygen deprived, burning the available combustible materials like paper, wood, furniture, and other equipment. Since there were oxygen poor fires, they most likely burned near 1300 degrees Fahrenheit. The maximum temperature possibly reached in these fires was 1800 degrees Fahrenheit and, of which, is not hot enough to fatigue or even melt steel.
According to Sir Isaac Newtons laws of motion, one can determine how far an object will travel a certain distance in complete free fall. The first tower to come down, the south tower, fell in approximately 10 seconds. This is virtually at free fall speed. By using this equation:
Position= (1/2)(acceleration due to gravity)(time squared),
one can determine the time it takes for an object to fall. When calculated, by plugging in 417 meters and 9.8 meters per second squared, the time calculated is approximately 9.2 seconds. Like the south tower, the north tower fell at nearly free fall speed in approximately 8.4 seconds. Steel would fall through the air at the speed of gravity but not through concrete. This is proof that the World Trade Center was not brought down by the fires in the buildings. If the pancake theory was true, it would have taken the buildings to fall with more intervals of time from floor to floor. Since it has been determined that both towers fell at virtually free fall speed, it is physically impossible that they fell with no resistance without a catalyzing force like that of explosives.
When viewing the collapses, explosions started from the points of impact in a synchronized fashion. Floor by floor, concrete was pulverized into dust and objects in the building were emitted from the windows at high speeds. Even the steel columns on the exterior were emitted at great speeds as far as 100 meters away from the outline of the buildings. Concrete would not simply just turn into dust. If a slab of concrete was dropped 417 meters above the ground and hit the ground, it would not turn into a fine dust like it did when the buildings collapsed. Even more astonishing is that, before the collapses, explosions were heard and felt at the base of each building. Numerous eye-witness accounts reported that explosions occurred within the buildings (Griffin 27). After each collapse there were huge clouds of dust spreading through the streets. This is also known as a pyroclastic flow, common in all controlled demolitions. Another piece of evidence is the apparent demolition squibs seen below the collapsing lines in both towers. After viewing the evidence, it can be concluded that explosives were set off in synchronized waves from floor to each preceding floor, which is also common in demolitions.
The experts in physics, structural engineering and the demolition industry believe the collapses were the work of well-placed explosives. Some of these experts include: Professor Wilem Frischmann of the Pell Frischmann Group and the City University, London; Michael Taylor, a demolition contractor from Pennsylvania; Van Romero, vice president for research at New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology; Steven Jones, a physics professor at Brigham Young University. Professor Wilem Frischmann said my current analysis suggests that the damage would not have triggered a collapse (Henshall 89). The demolition expert, Michael Taylor, believes that based on the videotapes, there were explosive devices inside the buildings that caused the towers to collapse (Henshall 89). These are just a few of the experts in the world that have come out publicly to say the towers, in no way, came down due to fire.
The collapse with the more obvious explanation is the collapse of building seven of the World Trade Center. This building came down at 5:20 PM on September 11, 2001, seven hours after the collapses of the twin towers. This building was located two blocks from the twin towers and did not suffer significant damage from falling debris like the buildings around the twin towers. The building had sustained minimal damage from the events earlier in the day which included two fires (Griffin 28). If these fires were, most likely, like the fires in the twin towers they would have burned at about the same temperature of 1300 degrees Fahrenheit, burning the same types of materials. Building seven was a 47 story building framed in steel, very much like the twin towers, and was 175 meters tall. When this building fell, it fell in just under seven seconds. This structure also fell at virtually free fall speed. Once again by using this equation:
Position= (1/2)(acceleration due to gravity)(time squared),
one can determine the time it takes for an object to fall. When calculated, by plugging in 175 meters and 9.8 meters per second squared, the time calculated is approximately 5.9 seconds. The building fell into its footprint and had all the signs for a controlled demolition. The building had demolition squibs during its collapse which took out the main support columns. After the beginning of the collapse, a pyroclastic flow traveled through the streets, dust from pulverized concrete, like the collapse of the twin towers. The building, having all the signs of a controlled demolition, was said to have fallen due to explosives of demolition by the lease owner of the building, Larry Silverstein: they made the decision to pull it and we watched the building collapse (Griffin 28). The term pull it stands for demolish. With the direct evidence of the collapse of building seven, it can be concluded that building seven fell due to well placed explosives of a controlled demolition.
Simply, by using a basic physics equation and the melting point of steel, it can be determined that the twin towers and building seven of the World Trade Center complex collapsed due to controlled demolitions. Just by using this, the pancake theory can be rejected completely. This mystery, unseen by many, can be now seen clearly and irrefutably. It is now clear that these buildings went up with the great development of man and the elements, and went down in the same way. The laws of physics, especially in this case, can disprove any persons skepticism of the defiance of gravity.
