controlled demolition

I recently came across a post by Newtons Bit that made a whole lot of sense. http://www.internationalskeptics.com/forums/showpost.php?p=3967250&postcount=4 With this in mind, I hereby state that I will abandon the CD hypothesis if no serious challenge to NIST's WTC7 report is put forth. In...

It is a strange belief, Truthers have, that steel skyscrapers are seemingly indestructible. It seems that the mechanizations of disaster overlook these mighty structures and, as only the hand of man can create them, so to can only the hand of man bring them down. Truthers actually seem to think...

I wish to distinguish "lack of evidence" from "evidence against". Lack of evidence simply means just that: there is no evidence something is true. Evidence against means that and more: there is actually evidence that the same something is false. For instance, a claim that aliens live underneath...

(Disclaimer: I do not believe the following is anything more than a brain fart. Read at your own risk.) One of the problems with the Controlled Demolition theory (and let's not beat around the bush; there are quite a few) is Flight 93. Why, if everything was planned and prepared in advance, was...

This video raises an interesting question I hadn't thought of before: If WTC7 was a controlled demolition, why were 'bombs' going off in the morning in a building that didn't fall down until late in the same afternoon? There's also a good quote from Chief Nigro and an interesting sound clip...

Anyone care to explain how the top section of the towers blew apart before the decent of the support structure? Check out the stop frame analysis. Why did 300 feet of tower eat itself from the top down, without the support structure moving? Where is the mass to pressure down the 1000 feet of...

I am a citizen exploring claims contrary to the mainstream ones regarding the event of 9/11 - although most I find serious fault with. Today, a professor stated during a discussion on the matter that WTC 7 was "imploded" and that Silverstein had made a statement to the media compounding this...

I was exchanging e-mails with a certain "leader" of a 9/11 truth group, and I made the statement that CD was "the staple argument of the truth movement." His reply was, "This shows how little you know about this movement. As I explained to you, for many years CD was actually looked at as...

I can't believe this thread still exists, much less is still stickied. Whoever believes that either of the WTC buildings came down because of "fire" is either utterly misinformed, is paid or pressured to propagate this nonsense, or is so completely devout in sticking to a certain, hilariously...

The BBC program comes out on Sunday, so I thought I'd get a leg up and post this here: Waiting for Seven: WTC 7 Collapse Warnings in the FDNY Oral Histories Prof. Graeme MacQueen http://www.journalof911studies.com/volume/200701/MacQueenWaitingforSeven.pdf This is a great article. It totally...

In the last couple of days, North Korea has started coming clean about their nukes. This move towards a peaceful resolution of conflicts, has inspired President G Dub. to remove N. Korea from the "Axis of Evil" seen in this clip...

I never did understand why truthers are so "married" to controlled demolition. A controlled demolition isn't required in order for there to be or have been a conspiracy (there could just as easily have been a conspiracy simply to hijack & crash planes) but they will defend their claims of CD as...

Hey JREF, Glad the site is back up, and I wanted to share my latest call into the Alex Jones Show with you. I talked to Jason Bermas about CD and I actually got him to say, thru "Jedi mind tricks of course, that the squibs started as soon as the plane impacted the building. That would make it an...

On their homepage, AE911Truth claim that molten metal is an indication of controlled demolition using explosives. Roughly a month ago I e-mailed them about the claim. A "Judy Shelton" replied thanking me for pointing that out and that they'd modify their website to remove the claim. Today I...

I'm sure we've all seen this video before, but I noticed something very interesting--I can't believe I didn't notice it before. 79sJ1bMR6VQ Pay attention to the base of the building. That is the point from which the collapse proceeds. Now you can see at 00:17-00:18... But there's more than...

Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water!: Dr. Paul LaViolette has added to his web re experimental verification of his theory of subquantum kinetics. I don't think his theory is mathematical enough to impress most physicists, but OTOH he seems to have found too many...

When? :D

Introduction: Many have theorized that the fall time of WTC7 can only be explained by controlled demolition. The fall time indicates there was very little resistance to collapse. This analysis looks at some energy issues in that context to try and quantify the resistance. Method: My approach...

I put together a short video about WTC 7 which includes the letter by Dan Nigro that appears on http://911guide.googlepages.com/danielnigro, and with the special voiceover work of JREF's own 'Boloboffin'. ysrkA9Edo-0 Any comments or critiques will help me in the future so all are welcome.

Greetings to All: All of the evidence points directly to insider terrorists taking down WTC-7 by Controlled Demolition on 9/11. WTC-7 was designed and built using Compartmentalization of all supporting columns and beams separated by solid concrete slabs horizontally and curtain walls...

A new one-hour TV series called "The Blasters" will premier in the US this Wednesday night, February 8th, at 8:00 pm (est) on the Discovery Channel. The program represents the first continuous "series" on structural blasting produced for network television. The program profiles several of the...

Let's see what you Truthers have got. The rules are simple: (1) If you post ONE (1) piece of positive evidence that WTC7 was destroyed by controlled demolition, you automatically win. I'll see if I can think of some sort of prize to give you. (2) Any use of the argument from incredulity...

* * * Frank Legge and Tony Szamboti have a relatively new paper in - your favorite - the Journal of 911 Studies: 911 and the Twin Towers: Sudden Collapse Initiation was Impossible This scratching post is for all you intellectual felines. What are the strengths and weaknesses of the paper?

What is the official science paper that describes the science of the twin towers collapse? I think i am correct in saying that the NIST did not describe the actual collapse, they described why the collapse would initiate, and then just said that it was a 'pancake collapse' or progressive...

Here's another video. 47 minutes. It would be less text-y, but my computer's audio input is broken. :) 2873871255585611926 Link to Google page.

GStan suggested a new thread could be started concerning the possibility of a controlled demolition of WTC 7. Below is his post from another thread. .

For me it was just so obvious that the collapse of WTC7 was a controlled demolition that I knew it couldn't be a conspiracy. I mean how could the perps expect expect intelligent people to observe that collapse and not do a Dan Rather and say that looked like a controlled demolition? There must...

The Rat Pack’s secret lair was demolished Sunday. They should have used thermite, it’s a lot quieter. video available here Note that the buildings did NOT collapse symmetrically

We have all heard the arguments put forth by people like Steven Jones regarding controlled demolitions on 9-11. The question I have is what was the point of it? Afterall, why go through all the trouble of placing devices in the WTC and risking discovery? Why would you even need to do a...

This could be interesting. On Monday, November 12 at 11:00 p.m. EST, Richard Gage is scheduled for a two hour debate on the Richard Syrett Show on CFRB radio (1010 on the AM dial). http://www.cfrb.com/shows/501327 From the CFRB site: A SPECIAL TWO HOUR DEBATE: WERE THE WTC TOWERS BROUGHT...
