    "WTC 7 wasn't heavily damaged!"

    Photo and video evidence shows a 24-story gash taken out of the south face, a huge hole where the fifth story was supposed to be, the lower southwest corner of the building missing. Eyewitnesses say a third of the building was scooped out.

    WTC 7 was an unusual design in order to accomodate the electrical substation equipment and the trading floors. When only a few key columns were destroyed, enormous loads were placed on the remaining few. This was not a proven design. But, nobody designs skyscrapers to withstand having adjacent skyscrapers fall on them.

    Firefighters at the scene realized early on that WTC 7 was unstable and pulled everybody out. They did not fight the fires raging inside.

    "But the fire never made it to the north side of the building!" Photos and videos show that indeed it did.

    "But it fell straight down!" When the main truss failed, the rest of the trusses on the level of failure, which were not designed to handle the extreme loads, failed diagonally within a few seconds, causing the floor above to collapse. Once this began, the momentum of the building rapidly led to global failure.

    "But it fell straight down!" Well, almost straight down. But when the collpase began, the moment is going to cause the outside walls to start failing inward, causing the building to start bowing in the middle and collapsing on itself.

    "But the buildings fell at (close to) free fall speed!" Once the building started moving downward, whatever small resistance could be offered by the failed structure would have been no match for the enormous momentum of such a large mass, and as it accelerated, it would have gotten closer to theoretical free fall.

    "But on WTC 1 and 2, some physicist said that the reinforced core should have offered at least a little resistance!" But the core did not collapse at the same time as the rest of the building, and video evidence shows that the core stayed standing for several seconds after the floors collapsed around it.

    "But there has never been any evidence verifying who the hijackers were!" Except that a respected journalist did an in-depth study on each of them.

    "But you haven't answered a single one of my questions! You're stalling! SHEEPLE! SHEEPLE!" Pull your head out of your ass.
    Stout is selling...(nice post by the way), but I'm still not buying. We aren't taking wooden structures here, as I've already proven, we are talking a building with 57x24 steel beams capable of handling the loss of more than just a few main truss. The lower floors were also reinforced with triangle trusses. Even a house of cards built with toothpicks will offer some resistence to a heavy object thrown on top forcing it to lose momentum and not fall at free fall speed, which can only happen when something offers no resistence at all.

    You proved nothing about how much each beam was designed to carry on every floor.
    The lower floors were also reinforced with triangle trusses.
    And if one of them went -- then what? Are you saying they were redundant?

    Why do all the conspiacy theorist keep saying it free falls? Is there even a video that shows 7WTC actually hitting the ground?

    I didn't have to because the initial NIST and FEMA report both blame the collapse on truss failure on floors lower than 10, much lower.

    No, but the other beams would still offer resistance, unless they were all somehow compromised.

    So nothing above that could have possibly failed first? Especially since columns could have been knocked out on several floors by the initial debris strike, increasing the load on the remaining columns?

    How much? If you have a video of WTC7 hitting the ground, I'd like to see it.

    Why does a alternative theory have to be a 'conpiracy theory'? Scientific theory isn't on the side of 'the official story', as a curious lot, doesn't that spark any curiousity?

    Because you said there was a conspiracy.

    Or are you taking that back now?

    No, I've always said that 911 was The Great Deception, but you won't learn that for a few more decades.

    It still hasn't been explained to be by the ALTERNATIVE THEORISTS THAT CONSTANTLY STATE OR IMPLY CONSPIRACY (trying to be sensitive but accurate) why the controlled thermite demolition took seven hours to happen -- just enough time for the fires to look good and cause the building to measurably move after north tower debris had been directed over another building and across the street to knock holes in the southwest corner and south face?

    No, you've stated controlled demolition, which is only possible through a conspiracy.

    If you think it's a great deception, go ahead and say who you think is doing the deceiving and why.

    typical weak ass two sentence reply. let me praise you for that one. touche

    look i don't discredit people who believe that something is fishy about 9/11. I also don't discredit who believe there was no CONSPIRACY. But if you think our government is fine and dandy and there is nothing more to life than clear cut vanilla angel theology... you are kidding yourself.

    ask questions, don't have anything forced down your throat.

    nbadan has questions. mookie has questions. mouse has questions. i am not as skeptical as these three, but when they ask their questions i'd like for you geniuses to answer them rather than calling them idiots. or else admit that you don't know the answers. .
    Go and read post #1 and post #3 of this thread.

    The starter of this thread asks how can terrorists, who trained on cessnas, fly 757s and 767s into the WTC and the Pentagon.

    chump answers by posting extracts from pilots (probably the people most qualified to answer TWF's question) who explain how it is possible for terrorists (or any other group of people who train on cessnas and flight simulators) to fly planes into the Towers.

    A question was asked, an answer was given.

    Same case as with all other questions asked by mookie, mouse and dan. Answers were provided, but you, and them, could care less because your mind has been set.

    Agency planned exercise on Sept. 11 built around a plane crashing into a building By John J. Lumpkin, Associated Press

    WASHINGTON — In what the government describes as a bizarre coincidence, one U.S. intelligence agency was planning an exercise last Sept. 11 in which an errant aircraft would crash into one of its buildings. But the cause wasn't terrorism -- it was to be a simulated accident.

    Officials at the Chantilly, Va.-based National Reconnaissance Office had scheduled an exercise that morning in which a small corporate jet would crash into one of the four towers at the agency's headquarters building after experiencing a mechanical failure.

    The agency is about four miles from the runways of Washington Dulles International Airport.

    Agency chiefs came up with the scenario to test employees' ability to respond to a disaster, said spokesman Art Haubold. No actual plane was to be involved -- to simulate the damage from the crash, some stairwells and exits were to be closed off, forcing employees to find other ways to evacuate the building.

    "It was just an incredible coincidence that this happened to involve an aircraft crashing into our facility," Haubold said. "As soon as the real world events began, we canceled the exercise."

    Terrorism was to play no role in the exercise, which had been planned for several months, he said.

    Adding to the coincidence, American Airlines Flight 77 -- the Boeing 767 that was hijacked and crashed into the Pentagon -- took off from Dulles at 8:10 a.m. on Sept. 11, 50 minutes before the exercise was to begin. It struck the Pentagon around 9:40 a.m., killing 64 aboard the plane and 125 on the ground.

    The National Reconnaissance Office operates many of the nation's spy satellites. It draws its personnel from the military and the CIA.

    After the Sept. 11 attacks, most of the 3,000 people who work at agency headquarters were sent home, save for some essential personnel, Haubold said.

    An announcement for an upcoming homeland security conference in Chicago first noted the exercise.

    In a promotion for speaker John Fulton, a CIA officer assigned as chief of NRO's strategic gaming division, the announcement says, "On the morning of September 11th 2001, Mr. Fulton and his team ... were running a pre-planned simulation to explore the emergency response issues that would be created if a plane were to strike a building. Little did they know that the scenario would come true in a dramatic way that day."


    The conference is being run by the National Law Enforcement and Security Ins ute.

    Yep, a conspiracy is only good if one can tie unrelated events into a well knit thread.

    I also heard that the power was cut off on the days prior to 9/11. That would only make sense if the perpetrators of the attack (the terrorists with the Government's compliance, or even better, the Governemnt itslef).

    , you can make a conspiracy out of anything.

    Wasn't a missile who brought down TWA flight 800?
