WTC 7: Sound Evidence for Explosions

July 7, 2010

source: 9/11 Speakout   July 7, 2010

There is ample evidence, from both witnesses and recordings, of explosions associated with the destruction of World Trade Center Building 7 (WTC 7). NIST sidestepped investigating explosions and explosives by setting up an artificially high threshold of interest. They swept aside any testimony or recordings of explosions that would not register 130-140 dB one kilometer away. They established this criterion using RDX (one of the loudest explosives) in a scenario that produced a far higher sound level than other possible uses of explosives to bring down the building. Then they turned around and used sound level as the sole criterion for deciding whether the use of explosives was a credible hypothesis. By this maneuver, they sidestepped investigating the testimony of explosives or possible evidence of explosive residues. This is just one more instance of fraudulent behavior on the part of the NIST investigation of the World Trade Center disaster.


7 Problems with Building 7

One

No plane struck the 47-story World Trade Center skyscraper (Building 7).

Two

No evidence of fires in Building 7 for the first 100 minutes after being struck by debris from Tower 1. (Yet fire from the debris is the official explanation for building collapse.) 

Three 

Sudden free-fall drop of eight stories is finally officially acknowledged. Yet the National Institute of Standards and Technology’s lead investigator explained months earlier that free fall could not have occurred because that would have meant there would have been no structural components below.

Leading National Service and 9/11 Organizations Announce Joint Plans to Organize Largest Day of Service in U.S. History to Observe 10th Anniversary of 9/11 Attacks

June 30, 2010

I wanted to post this so it starts hitting the blogosphere, but I have not had the time to review the details. I am hoping we ALL can be a part of these events, in one form or another. The goal, of course, is to have the voice of truth present.

 Influential Alliance Unveils Broad-Based Plans Today at National Conference on Volunteering and Service in New York City

NEW YORK, June 30 /PRNewswire/ – Following the passage of federal legislation that formally established 9/11 as a National Day of Service and Remembrance, a consortium of influential private and government entities today unveiled plans to organize the largest day of service in U.S. history in 2011 in observance of the 10th anniversary of the September 11 attacks.  The plans were announced by the 9/11 nonprofit MyGoodDeed during the National Conference on Volunteering and Service (NCVS), convening this week in New York.  

MyGoodDeed led the successful eight-year effort to secure federal establishment of 9/11 as an annually recognized National Day of Service and Remembrance, signed into law by President Obama in April 2009.  Also supporting these activities as members of this alliance are the federal Corporation for National and Community Service, HandsOn Network, and the National September 11 Memorial & Museum.

Did 9/11 Justify the War in Afghanistan?

June 29, 2010

Using the McChrystal Moment to Raise a Forbidden Question

by David R. Griffin  source: Global Research  June 29, 2010

There are many questions to ask about the war in Afghanistan. One that has been widely asked is whether it will turn out to be “Obama’s Vietnam.” This question implies another: Is this war winnable, or is it destined to be a quagmire, like Vietnam? These questions are motivated in part by the widespread agreement that the Afghan government, under Hamid Karzai, is at least as corrupt and incompetent as the government the United States tried to prop up in South Vietnam for 20 years.

Although there are many similarities between these two wars, there is also a big difference: This time, there is no draft. If there were a draft, so that college students and their friends back home were being sent to Afghanistan, there would be huge demonstrations against this war on campuses all across this country. If the sons and daughters of wealthy and middle-class parents were coming home in boxes, or with permanent injuries or post-traumatic stress syndrome, this war would have surely been stopped long ago. People have often asked: Did we learn any of the “lessons of Vietnam”? The US government learned one: If you’re going to fight unpopular wars, don’t have a draft –  hire mercenaries!

There are many other questions that have been, and should be, asked about this war, but in this essay, I focus on only one: Did the 9/11 attacks justify the war in Afghanistan? 

This question has thus far been considered off-limits, not to be raised in polite company, and certainly not in the mainstream media. It has been permissible, to be sure, to ask whether the war during the past several years has been justified by those attacks so many years ago. But one has not been allowed to ask whether the original invasion was justified by the 9/11 attacks.

Horrible, Repugnant 9/11 Ad: The Video!

June 29, 2010

This is an update to the “9/11 Imagery in Advertisements” post earlier in June.

by Andrew Belonsky   source: Gawker   June 29, 2010

While we all now know that WWF doesn’t endorse the ad made in its name, let’s all take a moment to wonder why, oh why, Brazil-based agency DDB BRASIL thought such a thing was a good idea…. Okay, now that the moment has passed… WTF? Really? Who in their right mind would think that using a terrorist attack would drive an earth-friendly message home? Also, we don’t want to be sticklers, but the 9/11 attacks killed more than the number put forth by this commercial.

DDB Brasil insists the commercial was nothing but a rough draft, but STILL… Seriously?!


The Official 9/11 Story…Accept Without Question

June 28, 2010

by Nathan Janes source: Pupaganda   June 28, 2010

In the United States today, true investigational journalism is rare. Much of the news circulated by mainstream media is only a presentation of information handed down from the government. Major media functions as a gatekeeper of information, creating consensus among Americans on an array of topics including the popularly held beliefs about September 11, 2001. An atmosphere has been created where questioning the official explanation or asking for a reinvestigation is seen as blasphemy. Individuals who do so are labeled anarchist, conspiracy theorist, domestic terrorist, and antigovernment. Politicians and other public figures who have voiced concerns about the 9/11 Commission Report have been invited on national news programs only to be pressured to renounce previous statements about 9/11 and publicly reject any affiliation to the group 9/11 Truth. While a critical analysis of the 9/11 Commission Report is absent from mainstream media, a number of questions go unanswered and unrecognized by most Americans.

Explosive Evidence at WTC Cited by Former CDI Employee

June 25, 2010

The above video was an interview I held with Tom  on May 8th, 2010.

by Darcy Wearing and Richard Gage     source: Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth     June 25, 2010

Having had the privilege of speaking with Tom Sullivan, an actual explosive-charge placement technician, we have some new insights to pass along as to how controlled demolition works, where it started, and the effect that 9/11 had on the demolition industry. Sullivan gained his experience as an employee of the leading firm in this field, Controlled Demolition, Inc. (CDI).  Sullivan stresses though “I do not in anyway represent CDI and what I have to say is based on my own experience and training,”

Sullivan attended high school with Doug Loizeaux of the Loizeaux family. The Loizeaux family, through the father Jack, independently started the whole controlled-demolition industry and turned it into a highly profitable business. Sullivan, before he became connected to CDI, was an independent photographer during his early years in Maryland. He would be sent to CD sites and take still pictures of the jobs.  He became infatuated with the CD industry. The time came when he would do both, being the placer of the “cutter charges” on the primary joints, and photographing the jobs for promoting the business. Soon he would switch to full-time employee status of CDI — as verified by AE911Truth’s verification team.

Judge Approves Settlement for 9/11 First Responders

June 24, 2010

Related: 9/11 worker settlements revealed

source: CNN    June 24, 2010

A U.S. district judge in New York approved a settlement Wednesday that could pay more than $700 million to thousands of 9/11 first responders exposed to toxic dust at ground zero.

Before approving the settlement Judge Alvin Hellerstein listened to testimony from a sampling of some of the 10,000 plaintiffs at Wednesday’s hearing about the health battles that have plagued them since working at the World Trade Center site.

“I intend to approve this settlement, and I now do so as a fair, adequate and reasonable settlement reflecting hard work and a concern for fairness by all parties,” said Hellerstein.

NASA Flight Director Confirms 9/11 Aircraft Speed As The “Elephant In The Room”

June 23, 2010

source: Pilots for 9/11 Truth      June 23, 2010

Recently Pilots For 9/11 Truth have analyzed the speeds reported for the aircraft utilized on 9/11. Numerous aviation experts have voiced their concerns regarding the extremely excessive speeds reported above Maximum Operating for the 757 and 767, particularly, United and American Airlines 757/767 Captains who have actual flight time in all 4 aircraft reportedly used on 9/11. These experts state the speeds are impossible to achieve near sea level in thick air if the aircraft were a standard 757/767 as reported. Combined with the fact the airplane which was reported to strike the south tower of the World Trade Center was also producing high G Loading while turning and pulling out from a dive, the whole issue becomes incomprehensible to fathom a standard 767 can perform such maneuvers at such intense speeds exceeding Maximum Operating limits of the aircraft. Especially for those who research the topic thoroughly and have expertise in aviation.

Co-Founder of Pilots For 9/11 Truth Rob Balsamo recently interviewed a former NASA Flight Director in charge of flight control systems at the NASA Dryden Flight Research facility who is also speaking out after viewing the latest presentation by Pilots For 9/11 Truth – “9/11: World Trade Center Attack”.

Over 70 Body Parts from 9/11 Found on New York City Streets (Yes, in 2010)

June 23, 2010

related updateA 9/11 Victim Is Identified by DNA in 2011

Brian Romanoff     Nor Cal Truth     June 23, 2010

Another search for human remains from  the 9/11 attacks has yielded more evidence of an explosive death, coupled with a lack of forensic integrity.

CBS reported this story today:

New York City officials say a renewed search this year of debris in and around the World Trade Center site has recovered 72 human remains.

The sifting of more than 800 cubic yards of debris recovered from ground zero and underneath roads around the lower Manhattan site began in April and ended Friday.

The greatest number of remains – 37 – were found from material underneath West Street, a highway on the west side of ground zero. The new debris was uncovered as construction work made new parts of the site accessible.

This is not the first time 9/11 human remains have been found in the streets of New York years after the fact. In 2006 CBS reported this:

Construction workers near the World Trade Center discovered 74 more bone fragments on a damaged skyscraper slated to be torn down later this year, officials said Thursday

Any theory that does not match experiment is wrong. It doesn’t matter what the computer models predict, how much funding is behind it, what the experts say, or what everyone “thinks”. Nothing can fool the laws of physics.


American Arrested in Pakistan While “Hunting Bin Laden.” – But Why?

June 18, 2010

Gary Faulkner, seen in this 2006 mugshot, traveled to Pakistan several times to find Osama bin Laden.

by Brian Romanoff     Nor Cal Truth    June 18, 2010    

A California born man living in Colorado was recently arrested in Pakistan, allegedly hunting Bin Laden along an Afghanistan border.    

I first saw it on CNN June 15th:    

Gary Faulkner, 50, is being held in Pakistan after being stopped near the border with Afghanistan’s Nuristan province, Pakistani police announced Tuesday. He was carrying a pistol, a sword, night-vision equipment and Christian religious books, said Mumtaz Ahmed, a police chief in the area.    

He told police that he had been looking for bin Laden since al Qaeda’s September 11, 2001, attacks on New York and Washington and had traveled to the area several times before, Ahmed said    

Raw Story covered it too:    

The suspect was arrested in the northern mountains of Chitral, once a rumoured hiding place of bin Laden, near Afghanistan’s Nuristan province, said police officer Mumtaz Ahmad Khan.    

Police identified him as Gary Brooks Faulkner. He was caught armed with a pistol, a dagger and a sword, carrying night-vision goggles, a night-vision camera and religious literature on Christianity, Khan said.
