Title: this contry
Post by: ink on July 30, 2007, 01:26:20 PM
im wondering

do you guys/gals truly believe that the towers were done by those we have been told it was done by?

me i DONT believe it.
does that make me unamerican?

building #7 fell four hours after the towers,
the owner admits to "pulling" that building. due to fire damage?
that is the biggest load of crap,


how many of you knew that building #7 fell that day?
 lots of people i talk to had no idea that another building fell that day

do research find the truth  if you want to know the truth its out there to be had.
TRUTH...  IF SOMEONE DOESNT BELIEVE THE TRUTH  DOES IT BECOME A LIE?

There is NO WAY in Hell the Towers were brought down by the United States Govt.    That is completely asinine.

As for Building 7.  If you fail to understand the amount of force of which those two towers FELL, and cause "structural damage" to the surrounding buildings, then I cannot help but feel bad for you.  

Oh, and it wasn't a missile that hit the Pentagon.

Un-American, no.  Uneducated.  Further proof of the complete failure of what passes for the American Education System.

Structural damage is not always immediate.  4 hours or 4 days, doesn't matter when a structure has been compromised.  Ever hear the noises of your house "settling"?  Consider that in a large and compromised structure.  Add to that all the heavy equipment being moved INTO that area following the collapse and the vibration effect of heavy equipment being used to search and extricate survivors.

If building #7 was intentionally dropped (I don't remember anything like that though from that day), it was probably because it posed a threat to workers on the rest of the pile in the area and could not be properly shored up (too big a structure to do that with anyways under those circumstances).  I know they were pulling people off the pile again and again for safety reasons throughout the recovery effort due to safety concerns for the rescuers (Rule #1, the safety of the rescuers comes first, otherwise you wind up with even more people needing rescued, and fewer people to do it with, and delays the rescue of the first victims even longer).

I'm sure you can follow some other conspiracy theories out there that are harder to so easily discount than any about the Towers on 9/11.

Yup, plus depending on how the building was reinforced, it would either collapse immediately, or slowly.  Building engineers can control this to whichever effect they wish.

The United States DOD has, in the past, drawn up plans for "simulated or real terrorism and violence on US soil....blamed on Cuba.." to justify war against Castro.

I have no idea who was responsible for 9/11, but it can't be denied that the (republicans & democrats) people who run this country could be responsible.

the tinfoil actually improves the reception of the alien transmissions.

thats why we used to put it on the rabbit ears of our TV(well, to improve local broadcasts, not intergalactic)


and thats why the aliens convince the abducties to wear the hats .. very diabolical they are.

Yeah, did you get that from that Loose Change movie where they featured that story.  That may have existed but that Loose Change movie is terribly flawed.  In an early revision to it they were comparing damage of a "B-52 that struck the Empire State Building in 1946"

Yup, B-52's.....looks like they did their homework.  Something as simple as that :huh

Hey guy. Get some education. Do some research.

Remember the real bridge at Remagen? Strictly rhetorical question to you, of course.

"The Ludendorff Railroad Bridge at Remagen, between Koblenz and Bonn, was captured intact by troops of the U.S. 9th Armored Division on March 7, 1945. Armored infantry fought their way across the bridge under intense enemy fire as the Germans attempted to destroy it with demolition charges. Several explosions damaged part of the bridge, but the main charges failed to fire and the bridge remained standing."

"On March 17, 1945, the Ludendorff, severely damaged in the fighting ten days earlier and weakened further from the strain of heavy traffic, collapsed into the Rhine. Having crossed the Rhine, the Allied armies prepared to drive into the interior of Germany."

If the US was looking for an excuse to go to war with Cuba and was willing to make up a story to do it they had the perfect chance to do so when Kennedy was assasinated.

The thing I find interesting is all you guys that seem to forget that Saddam was constantly shooting at our planes flying over the no-fly zone in Iraq. That was more than enough reason to finish the war IF that is what Bush wanted to do. Instead he acted on info that the WHOLE WORLD had been given that the Iraqis were trying to get a nuke.

Apparently you would rather have Saddam still in power. Its a good thing you weren't around in '41. You wouldn't have considered Hitler a threat to the world.

The World Trade buildings wasn't meant to take a "high impact" like say a rocket or a mad man like Chairboy flying a plane around NYC LOL I don't think he would be flying into buildings though LOL Chairboy. Anyways The World Trade Centers were not military buildings so they wasn't built to specs to take hi impact.

 lots of people i talk to had no idea that another building fell that day

TRUTH...  IF SOMEONE DOESNT BELIEVE THE TRUTH  DOES IT BECOME A LIE?


WTC 7 Collapse
CLAIM: Seven hours after the two towers fell, the 47-story WTC 7 collapsed. According to 911review.org: "The video clearly shows that it was not a collapse subsequent to a fire, but rather a controlled demolition: amongst the Internet investigators, the jury is in on this one."

FACT: Many conspiracy theorists point to FEMA's preliminary report, which said there was relatively light damage to WTC 7 prior to its collapse. With the benefit of more time and resources, NIST researchers now support the working hypothesis that WTC 7 was far more compromised by falling debris than the FEMA report indicated. "The most important thing we found was that there was, in fact, physical damage to the south face of building 7," NIST's Sunder tells PM. "On about a third of the face to the center and to the bottom--approximately 10 stories--about 25 percent of the depth of the building was scooped out." NIST also discovered previously undocumented damage to WTC 7's upper stories and its southwest corner.

NIST investigators believe a combination of intense fire and severe structural damage contributed to the collapse, though assigning the exact proportion requires more research. But NIST's analysis suggests the fall of WTC 7 was an example of "progressive collapse," a process in which the failure of parts of a structure ultimately creates strains that cause the entire building to come down. Videos of the fall of WTC 7 show cracks, or "kinks," in the building's facade just before the two penthouses disappeared into the structure, one after the other. The entire building fell in on itself, with the slumping east side of the structure pulling down the west side in a diagonal collapse.

According to NIST, there was one primary reason for the building's failure: In an unusual design, the columns near the visible kinks were carrying exceptionally large loads, roughly 2000 sq. ft. of floor area for each floor. "What our preliminary analysis has shown is that if you take out just one column on one of the lower floors," Sunder notes, "it could cause a vertical progression of collapse so that the entire section comes down."

There are two other possible contributing factors still under investigation: First, trusses on the fifth and seventh floors were designed to transfer loads from one set of columns to another. With columns on the south face apparently damaged, high stresses would likely have been communicated to columns on the building's other faces, thereby exceeding their load-bearing capacities.

Second, a fifth-floor fire burned for up to 7 hours. "There was no firefighting in WTC 7," Sunder says. Investigators believe the fire was fed by tanks of diesel fuel that many tenants used to run emergency generators. Most tanks throughout the building were fairly small, but a generator on the fifth floor was connected to a large tank in the basement via a pressurized line. Says Sunder: "Our current working hypothesis is that this pressurized line was supplying fuel [to the fire] for a long period of time."

WTC 7 might have withstood the physical damage it received, or the fire that burned for hours, but those combined factors--along with the building's unusual construction--were enough to set off the chain-reaction collapse.

and the pentagon had a hole 4x smaller than a plane so explin how that happend


Big Plane, Small Holes
CLAIM: Two holes were visible in the Pentagon immediately after the attack: a 75-ft.-wide entry hole in the building's exterior wall, and a 16-ft.-wide hole in Ring C, the Pentagon's middle ring. Conspiracy theorists claim both holes are far too small to have been made by a Boeing 757. "How does a plane 125 ft. wide and 155 ft. long fit into a hole which is only 16 ft. across?" asks reopen911.org, a Web site "dedicated to discovering the bottom line truth to what really occurred on September 11, 2001."

The truth is of even less importance to French author Thierry Meyssan, whose baseless assertions are fodder for even mainstream European and Middle Eastern media. In his book The Big Lie, Meyssan concludes that the Pentagon was struck by a satellite-guided missile--part of an elaborate U.S. military coup. "This attack," he writes, "could only be committed by United States military personnel against other U.S. military personnel."

FACT: When American Airlines Flight 77 hit the Pentagon's exterior wall, Ring E, it created a hole approximately 75 ft. wide, according to the ASCE Pentagon Building Performance Report. The exterior facade collapsed about 20 minutes after impact, but ASCE based its measurements of the original hole on the number of first-floor support columns that were destroyed or damaged. Computer simulations confirmed the findings.

Why wasn't the hole as wide as a 757's 124-ft.-10-in. wingspan? A crashing jet doesn't punch a cartoon-like outline of itself into a reinforced concrete building, says ASCE team member Mete Sozen, a professor of structural engineering at Purdue University. In this case, one wing hit the ground; the other was sheared off by the force of the impact with the Pentagon's load-bearing columns, explains Sozen, who specializes in the behavior of concrete buildings. What was left of the plane flowed into the structure in a state closer to a liquid than a solid mass. "If you expected the entire wing to cut into the building," Sozen tells PM, "it didn't happen."

The tidy hole in Ring C was 12 ft. wide--not 16 ft. ASCE concludes it was made by the jet's landing gear, not by the fuselage.

Intact Windows
CLAIM: Many Pentagon windows remained in one piece--even those just above the point of impact from the Boeing 757 passenger plane. Pentagonstrike.co.uk, an online animation widely circulated in the United States and Europe, claims that photographs showing "intact windows" directly above the crash site prove "a missile" or "a craft much smaller than a 757" struck the Pentagon.

FACT: Some windows near the impact area did indeed survive the crash. But that's what the windows were supposed to do--they're blast-resistant.

"A blast-resistant window must be designed to resist a force significantly higher than a hurricane that's hitting instantaneously," says Ken Hays, executive vice president of Masonry Arts, the Bessemer, Ala., company that designed, manufactured and installed the Pentagon windows. Some were knocked out of the walls by the crash and the outer ring's later collapse. "They were not designed to receive wracking seismic force," Hays notes. "They were designed to take in inward pressure from a blast event, which apparently they did: [Before the collapse] the blinds were still stacked neatly behind the window glass."

AFTERMATH: Wreckage from Flight 77 on the Pentagon's lawn--proof that a passenger plane, not a missile, hit the building. PHOTOGRAPH BY AP/WIDE WORLD PHOTOS Flight 77 Debris




CLAIM: Conspiracy theorists insist there was no plane wreckage at the Pentagon. "In reality, a Boeing 757 was never found," claims pentagonstrike.co.uk, which asks the question, "What hit the Pentagon on 9/11?"

FACT: Blast expert Allyn E. Kilsheimer was the first structural engineer to arrive at the Pentagon after the crash and helped coordinate the emergency response. "It was absolutely a plane, and I'll tell you why," says Kilsheimer, CEO of KCE Structural Engineers PC, Washington, D.C. "I saw the marks of the plane wing on the face of the building. I picked up parts of the plane with the airline markings on them. I held in my hand the tail section of the plane, and I found the black box." Kilsheimer's eyewitness account is backed up by photos of plane wreckage inside and outside the building. Kilsheimer adds: "I held parts of uniforms from crew members in my hands, including body parts. Okay?"

ok! listen up fellas! the government had a hand in killing JFK,Dr.King, and the Monroe chick, as well as captured a flying disc in Roswell N.M.! So I have no reason to believe that the federals did NOT blow up the twin towers. The A rabs that flew the planes were double ott spies working for Bush and the Skull and Bones society. On the orders of the free Masons ofcource. Jeez how dumb are you guys.
In tomorrows lesson, we'll discuss the daughter of Jesus and how some knight dudes are hiding her in a old barn close to V12 in the early war arena.
Dismissed class!:rolleyes:

Come now Uptown, it wasn't arabs in those planes, they were remote controlled and the passengers are being used now for biological weapons experiments by an unknown black ops group in the US gov't that not even the president knows about. Kennedy found out and see what that got him.:rofl

now why do you have to bring the Free Masons into this. They have really nothing to do with  the government.

 Now I know my country didnt take out the WTC's But all the other crack heads out there that think Big Brother is out to get them do.
