Why were the insurers happy to pay out and then take part in a cover up? And why did Silverstein admit to the conspiracy in an interview? Is he an idiot?
Because he's in "The Club". When you're in "The Club" you can't be touched. Larry was letting his "Club" friends know that he'd better get his money or some other stuff might "slip".
This is a conspiracy among a relatively small faction of the Power Elite. The evidence clearly indicates that. And yet you're trying to make honest truth-seeking people look stupid because they don't know what arrangements these clowns had or how they were dealing with each other behind the scenes when things didn't go exactly according to plan?
Same crap, different day with you.

I'm not asking you to give me an exact rundown of how your imagined power elite interacts. I'm merely suggesting you try to account for it in some manner that's not completely illogical.
Take your first paragraph. It doesn't even make sense within itself. How can a "Club" member be untouchable yet simultaneously be blackmailed by another member? That means they are 'touchable' doesn't it?

And by the way, there's really no mystery to the toasted cars and the "strange pattern" of what got burned and what didn't. It's damned simple: Debris from the explosions, fires, and building collapses caused fires at ground level. some of these fires started on cars. Those cars that did not burn were not ignited by falling debris, nor fire spreading from falling debris..
The photos of cars far from ground zero show where they were temporarily stored before being scrapped during the first phase of the cleanup.
But you're right. This explanation has nothing to do with jet fuel, or pancaking floors. But why would it?
We're trying to get to the truth. We don't accept Donald Duck and Little Miss Muffet as the truth. Sorry. That might work for you, but not us. Can you just go back to Mother Goose and let us adults try to sort things out?

So anyone pointing out the sillyness of your conspiracy theory is "disrupting debate"....
You just cannot handle the truth!

Tell us how those cars, even while still burning and nowhere near Ground Zero, were turned into twisted and mangled spaghetti when there was no sign of any debris around them, only dust.

This is one of the silliest conspiracy theories.
These cars were towed or even dragged out of the way in an effort to clear the streets so rescue/recovery equipment can get in.
Damaged cars can and do catch on fire later. This is because the electrical system is physically damaged.
Ask your local fire department how often damaged cars burn after they are towed from the accident scene.

Wow, how sad. That's one of your weakest fairy tales yet. It's amazing what the programmed subconscious mind can block out.
Go back and look at the vehicles again. Tell us what vaporized rubber tires but left the steel belts around the rims. How did that fire and debris melt the insides of ambulances and fire engines without even damaging the external paint jobs. Tell us how those cars were "moved" if many of them were still burning. Tell us how those cars, even while still burning and nowhere near Ground Zero, were turned into twisted and mangled spaghetti when there was no sign of any debris around them, only dust. All of these toasted vehicles were burning exponentially hotter than any fire that can be generated by jet fuel or gasoline.
It is the same super-high heat that melted steel beams at 130 Liberty Street. That jet fuel is jsut amazing. Whatever steel it came into contact with was able to fly a block and a half and melt steel beams in other buildings! It was able to melt cars a half mile away, many of them from the inside out! And it was certainly selective. It melted, let's say, a roof, but left the doors! Or melted a wheel rim, but left the other three alone while surgically removing the rubber!
And these anomalies are just the tip of the iceberg.
What do you think the octane of that jet fuel might have been?

Car fires can and DO get very hot. What is burning? Gasoline, for starters. Then all the plastics, upholstery, vinyl, flammable liquids, etc. Yeah, it burns really hot. The cars at WTC were either set afire by the burning debris from the aircraft impacts, or flaming debris from the WTC, or flaming debris from the collapses, or caught in a chain of car fires. Fire likes to spread, and sometimes, cars close together will catch fire if one is lit up. Gasoline escaping the tank, exploding gas tanks, hell even the heat can set off another car next to it. Nothing sinister about it, that is just how fire works. The WTC cars were TOWED to their locations after the events.
What are you talking about? 130 Liberty Street? What happened there?? What melted beams? Where are you pulling this nonsese from? All I recall is that it got hit by debris from the tower. Nothing about melted steel beams.

I'm coming into this argument fresh so I don't know...is this guy seriously suggesting that it's some weird mystery how and why a wrecked car in the streets of NYC was moved across town? In NEW YORK CITY?!? If someone illegally parks or steals a car and abandons it they're simply going to wring their hands in frustration wondering what to do about it?!? I mean, really?
Originally posted by SimontheMagus
Yeah, pretty ridiculous for someone to suggest that amidst all this confusion in the hours following the collapses, that NYC somehow managed to move 1400 vehicles away from the area around Ground Zero. Most of them could not have been towed because they were missing their tires and in many cases the wheels had fallen off. That would mean that there must have been a swarm of flatbeds running around the debris and massive confusion in downtown Manhattan all morning and afternoon.
Not to mention that in most of the photos it can clearly be seen that these cars were not towed from where they were after they went on fire.
Here's another batch of photos.... each one of them would require you to make up a new fairy tale to explain them....

Personally, I think THIS explanation makes INFINITELY more sense than your utterly absurd nonsense:
Chuck Boldwyn's research finds they are all result of highly specifically Chemically Reactive Thermate Particles found by the millions/billions in expanding and heated dust clouds

In regards to the car door handles, go and type in "burnt out cars" into a search engine for images. Then see how many cars have door handles melted off. Second, if you noticed, the fires spread. Fire likes to spread. That is how cars catch fire in parking lots and streets. We dont know what type of debris started it, but we can see the aftereffects.
In regards to the Deutsche Building, that beam is squashed, and it unknown if it it from the WTC or 130. But image seems a little distorted, colorwise. Are there any better images? If the beam is from the WTC than it is probably indicated of the beam distorting from plasticity after exposure to fire and stress loads. Other structures also showed such column failure, when beams were xposed to heat and pressure. Look up "steel creep high temperature" and "steel plasticity". It may open your eyes.
