fair play but that doesnt explain the freefall time frame 10.2 seconds vs 8.1 very little difference and the max temps of av gas oh and the fact that the building was designed to withstand multiple plane hits . how about the fact that ni on identical sky scrapers made in the 70s by the same cinstruction companies have had fires that heve raged for up to 25hours without colapsing not just 18minutes , oh and i notice no one has offered or submited a explanation for building 7 nothing hit that one

This is well off topic now, but I do reluctantly agree that the conspiracy theories for 9/11 are very convincing.

The plane hitting the Pentagon was odd from the start - massive amounts of CCTV cameras must have captured that, yet why not release the footage? A 757 making only a small hole in the wall and almost no wreckage at all? Does seem very odd.

The towers falling does also look like a controlled explosion, with the 'squibs' exploding out the side of the building clealy visible as it fell.

The building 7 collapsing is maybe the strangest - no massive damage, and surrounding buildings ok, then suddenly in collapses in a controlled explosion fashion...

C'mon guys, 9/11 conspiracy theories are sooooo last decade. Shouldn't we be talking about the hot topic of the hour, the true whereabouts of the very much still alive Osama Bin Laden?

My point was ironic I know how toxic debt was involved.

You said the government went to war to make money, then said the banks make all the money and the arms company leaving the government with the bill. Almost saying that CR convinced the US to go to war to get bigger dividends

Just picking up on the distinction between an Islamist and a Muslim. People get confused about it and get the wrong end of the stick on a fairly regular basis. All Islamists are Muslims, but not all Muslims are Islamists. Ambiguity is only a problem if one doesn't understand the nuances and definitions, if one does, these words are actually concise. A little knowledge is dangerous. A good example is the Newsnight discussion between Anjem Choudary, Paxman and another chap whose name escapes me, but who was a scholar from Oxford and who also happens to be a Muslim. Both Muslims, but one is an Islamist and the other not.

Choudary's latest venture:

http://www.muslimsagainstcrusades.com/

You've used the word 'crusade' several times when discussing the British mission in Libya and I think that really is ambiguous; it's the same narrative used by the people in the link.

Islamism isnt the problem or the route of the problem it's the individuals weather Osama existed or not mr Obama. it'll be so nice to chuck em all in one room and let them fight it put between them lol
This is inaccurate. Let me know if you'd like me to explain why. And Islamism is a problem if you subscribe to Enlightenment thinking. It's a massive, huge, whopping, great-big flipping problem. The root of that problem is Sayyid Qutb; check out his book 'In the shade of the Qur'an'. Fascinating chap, by the way, and a great thinker, just a shame he was batting for the opposition.

Disclaimer: NOT ALL MUSLIMS ARE ISLAMISTS. ISLAMISM IS NOT ISLAM.

But these guys know a thing or two

Nearly every large building has a redundant design that allows for loss of one primary structural member, such as a column. However, when multiple members fail, the shifting loads eventually overstress the adjacent members and the collapse occurs like a row of dominoes falling down.

The perimeter tube design of the WTC was highly redundant. It survived the loss of several exterior columns due to aircraft impact, but the ensuing fire led to other steel failures. Many structural engineers believe that the weak points—the limiting factors on design allowables—were the angle clips that held the floor joists between the columns on the perimeter wall and the core structure (see Figure 5). With a 700 Pa floor design allowable, each floor should have been able to support approximately 1,300 t beyond its own weight. The total weight of each tower was about 500,000 t.

As the joists on one or two of the most heavily burned floors gave way and the outer box columns began to bow outward, the floors above them also fell. The floor below (with its 1,300 t design capacity) could not support the roughly 45,000 t of ten floors (or more) above crashing down on these angle clips. This started the domino effect that caused the buildings to collapse within ten seconds, hitting bottom with an estimated speed of 200 km per hour. If it had been free fall, with no restraint, the collapse would have only taken eight seconds and would have impacted at 300 km/h.1 It has been suggested that it was fortunate that the WTC did not tip over onto other buildings surrounding the area. There are several points that should be made. First, the building is not solid; it is 95 percent air and, hence, can implode onto itself. Second, there is no lateral load, even the impact of a speeding aircraft, which is sufficient to move the center of gravity one hundred feet to the side such that it is not within the base footprint of the structure. Third, given the near free-fall collapse, there was insufficient time for portions to attain significant lateral velocity. To summarize all of these points, a 500,000 t structure has too much inertia to fall in any direction other than nearly straight down.

Yes we (as in SN NSR) have discussed this before and while I get what you are saying I think the fact that a lot of people don't see the difference is used as a rather convenient ambiguity by some posters.

Some interesting 'facts' in there

Only problem is there seems to be more evidence to support the conspiracy theory than there is to disprove it ?

Can I ask have you watched loose change ? Can you counter argue everything they put forward ?

All I want to see is the video of the plane hitting the pentagon and it would make it easier for me to believe the story, same goes for OBL, all I want to see is the video of the raid as proof of what happened

All these theorys are so easy to knock on the head and they can do it so easily but choose not to ?

Sorry, I dont buy the excuses for not showing the evidence

The whole notion of the conspiracy theory is unfalsifiable since the theory always keeps moving around like an amoeba when you refute one point or another. The 'theory' always accommodates the evidence (by way of leaps of logic and fallacies) but it is not the best theory for that evidence!

How do you refute the notion that an evil, omnipotent nexus controls everything? You can't! Hence it being unfalsifiable!

The truthers main bone of contention is WTC 7 which they claim was demolished using thermite to 'hide' the evidence of it being used as the 'control center' for the attacks.

I can't say I'm an expert on it but the 'evidence' is virtually non existent for this theory....with the main 'evidence' being the way WTC 7 fell down (straight and uniform). They claim this could only have been done with a controlled demolition but many experts don't agree...and the truthers don't have any smoking gun evidence.

The plane would have been travelling at several hundred mile per hour. Is it to be expected that every angle of the pentagon is covered with cameras which record at sufficient frames per second, and resolution, to capture something moving within the frame (of the camera) at the speed of a slow moving bullet?
