I'm one of the biggest Libertarians on the planet, and even I don't think any government is capable of pulling off such an elaborate stunt, hell they can't even get my taxes right.
So, you agree, that there was a staff of people who sat there for decades, just waiting for the right time to light that candle, huh? And no one noticed.
You do know that almost 3000 people died and that the entire attack was ran by Osama Bin Ladin, and last I checked, he was not coordinating attacks with the CIA or any other shadow government.
So you don't think that a group of very powerful and influential men from both industry and government couldn't plan and pull it off, yet a man who lived in a cave on the other side of the planet could?
Where is your logical critical thinking....

Sorry I don't have a link as it's old news, but work on the elevators and other inside projects was performed for many months prior to the attacks.
People WERE working on construction projects inside the buildings. I want to say something comical like Acme Elevator Company, right out of Roadrunner cartoons.
I want to see eye witness reports, and explain to me where the 20 or so tractor trailers full of required materials and gear were parked while this fairy tale operation took place.
I also want to see the Union shop Stewart's reports clearing any "unauthorized" union workers (and yes any elevator maintenance person would have to get cleared through the shop Stewart's office too) who were working on the building in the weeks and months prior to the towers falling.
These records are kept forever, with copies kept at the local Union offices.
Produce these, and we might have some place to start a conspiracy theory.
Until then, just read my avatar.
Oh yeah, one more edit. In NY, any time you do work in any building, they will also assign any team of workers a Union journeyman, who will shadow all work being done to make sure additional union workers are not required.
Please provide us with these reports that show that someone watched teams of people installing explosives, or do you think they paid off all of these people to never say a single word that explosives were being installed, and yes it would be obvious to even my mother in law as to what was going on.
Facts and reality really do suck for conspiracy theories.
Considering that the 14th anniversary of the event is just days away, and you still do not quite realize the massive deception involved, and that you have not informed yourself about the many details of the deception, I won't waste my time digging around here and there to find links. If all these years later you are still so uninformed, I expect that your avatar meter for BS does not really work. That is, it appears you have bought into the BS and still don't know the difference. Your meter must have a short in it.

It sounds from your posts that you are very familiar with Fantasy Island. Likely you've been living there for the last 14 years.
Some of us have awakened from the trance.

Oh I don't know... Perhaps the 2.5 trillion immediate gains, not to mention the Insurance claims,
It's sad for someone who calls them self a scientist to not think rationally.
Just what bank could you deposit 2.5 trillion?
Just how could any group of people spend 2.5 trillion?
As to the insurance claims you have never bothered to look up the insurance settlement for 911.
To believe all of these wacky claims with out proof is not science.
I suggest sir, you are not a scientist in any form.
I suggest sir, you do not have a degree in any form.
Owner of World Trade Center is trying to sue airlines for BILLIONS for 9/11 attacks... even though he was already paid $5billion in insurance
The owner of the World Trade Center is arguing in federal court that the airlines who planes were flown into the Twin Towers on September 11, 2001 should pay him billions in compensation.
Larry Silverstein is attempting to collect $3.5billion from United Airlines, US Airways and American Airlines - on top of nearly $5billion he has already received from his insurance company.
U.S. District Judge Alvin K. Hellerstein in Manhattan is listening to arguments on both sides before he will rule on whether Silverstein's World Trade Center Properties can file a lawsuit against the airlines.
He is expected to rule from the bench as soon as several witnesses conclude testifying in the trial expected to last about three days. Arguments began on Monday.

If one still believes the official story, one does not "deal in reality".
It seems my standards for proof must be much higher than yours. So far, nobody, including yourself, has been able to prove to me that the story about 911 is true. Indeed, the facts themselves prove the story to be false.
Peace, out.

I have looked into the 2.3 trillion. I know that it was first publicly mentioned over a year before 9/11/01. That it was mentioned before Rumsfeld was SecDef. That, it was never missing money. That it was accounting adjustments made that outside auditors did not believe there was enough documentation to support. And, that they were still reconciling it after 9/11/01. Only those who willingly choose to remain uninformed thinks the 2.3 trillion has ANYTHING to do with 9/11.
Then the insurance. Again, only those who choose to remain misinformed think that Silverstein made money. The insurance money, was not enough to rebuild the site. Hell, he has paid out more than 1.5 billion just in RENT to the Port Authority since 9/11...just to preserve his rights to rebuild.

Furthermore what is your opinion about Jowenko who didn't believe the official 7wtc story (he blasted for about 30 years at that time). Was he a nutcase ? He didn't make any money from it and wasn't a 9/11 truther, but only an expert who gave his opinion.
Obviously not, or you would know that he was awarded 7 billion.... given that he was able to claim two separate events.
After a four-day bench trial in Lower Manhattan this week, U.S. District Court Judge Alvin Hellerstein ruled that an investment group led by Mr. Silverstein had already received all the compensation for which it is eligible: the $4.1 billion paid by property insurers in 2004.
If one still believes the official story, one does not "deal in reality".
Danny Jowenko
Danny Jowenko has made it quite clear that, in his expert opinion, the collapses of WTC1 and WTC2 could not possibly have been brought about by the use of explosives.
He has explained his reasons for this opinion perfectly clearly; since the collapses initiated in the regions struck by airliners and engulfed in fires, the fires would have set off the demolition charges uncontrollably, and much sooner than the actual collapse initiation times.

Silverstein Loses Battle Over 9/11 Payouts
A federal judge rejected developer Larry Silverstein's bid to recover billions of dollars from two airlines whose planes were used in the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks.

Silverstein Can’t Get $3.5 Billion From Airlines for 9/11
Real estate developer Larry Silverstein can’t seek $3.5 billion from airlines whose planes were hijacked by terrorists and flown into the World Trade Center’s twin towers on Sept. 11, 2001, a judge ruled.
Silverstein, who leased the skyscrapers about two months before they were destroyed, already collected $4.1 billion from insurers and can’t collect twice under New York law, U.S. District Judge Alvin K. Hellerstein ruled yesterday in a courtroom less than a mile and a half from the World Trade Center site.

And if you think that the DOD is so incompetent that they simply miscalculated the 2.3 trillion dollars then you are living in cloud cookoo land.
Rumsfeld and the $2.3 trillion
For years, DoD and congressional officials have sought to reconcile defense financial documents to determine where billions in expenditures have gone. That money didn't fall down a hole, but is simply waiting to be accounted for, Zakheim said in a Feb. 14 interview with the American Forces Information Service. Complicating matters, he said, is that DoD has 674 different computerized accounting, logistics and personnel systems.
Most of the 674 systems "don't talk to one another unless somebody 'translates,'" he remarked. This situation, he added, makes it hard to reconcile financial data.
DoD financial experts, Zakheim said, are making good progress reconciling the department's "lost" expenditures, trimming them from a prior estimated total of $2.3 trillion to $700 billion. And, he added, the amount continues to drop.

He was not able to claim 2 separate events.
He did not receive the 7 billion he wanted.

That really thick layer of dust covering everything, comes after the collapses. And a lot of it is plain gypsum from those thousands of gypsum filled wall boards. And perhaps some vermiculite dust. And plain dust from girders and other former tower surface areas, hidden for the eye, covered with years of dust.
Further, TEM analysis of dust in the Building also showed the asbestos concentration reaching over 70 million structures/cm2 (s/cm2) in TP-01 samples from the gash region, directly adjacent to the WTC site. An unprecedented level of 1 billion s/cm2 was also observed in the Building and 2 billion s/cm2 on the roof of the Building where debris was deposited from direct fallout as well as suspension, as the WTC Event occurred.
He was able to claim two separate events and was awarded 7.1 billion.... he only managed to collect just under 5 billion however.
