Here's how they planted the explosives... ACE ELEVATOR.... sad people will accuse without even looking at the documentation provided... That is how they got away with it in the beginning and how the criminals continue to live in the very lap of luxury without fear of reprisal from the citizens.

Does Alex Jones not live in the lap of luxury? You've been posting every crap conspiracy theory out there dude.

Again the issue I have when I don't agree with the government or their advisers, is being called a conspiracy theorist because I choose not to believe their every word and follow them like dumb sheep. I have read on here and on the Web analysis of folk who choose not to follow and believe everything we're told. We're mentally sub-normal, the odd ones out, we need to conform.
If I may give an example, in the 1970's we were warned about global cooling, a mini ice age was imminent. Our TV's were full of talk programs advising what we should do, move nearer the equator, provide adequate shelter etc. By an ironic twist of fate 1976 was one of the hottest summers in the UK. However we were expected to believe every word. Fast forward a few years and some of these same people are warning us of Global Warming..............hang on buddy, less than ten years ago the words mini ice age were coming from your mouth. WTF?
There is no doubt a number of people made a lot of money from this, even creating "green millionaires". Below are a few screen shots from the 70's. As the Global Warming started to cool (get it) it changed to Climate Change. Well, no shit Sherlock, guess what? The climate has always changed. So maybe the title is now right, do you think we might get 30 foot sea level rises as predicted by a certain AG.

Underneath any so-called conspiracy theory lies a worldview added to a political stance that with the two blended together help to postulate, formulate and promulgate whatever conjures in the mind of the paranoid. There are some that believe the world is controlled by invisible agents and to them I submit that Elvis is alive and well and working behind the counter of a Waffle House outside of Denver. Some of us just simply need more constructive ways to fill our time. Maybe shut off the computer for a few days and head down to the local Salvation Army or Rescue Mission and get in touch with the real world by lending a hand to those in need. Just a thought.

Before the internet we could consult with this for the answers.

So now I know what thermite is. Cool.

And I also know that I have another payroll coming in two weeks.

So I'd better go sell something so the company has enough money to accommodate it.


I'm with cybee. Let's keep our eye on the ball that matters, and it ain't the Magic Eight Ball.

Those are all good points. And having a discussion here is part of living in the real world. So how we chose to focus our limited amount of time each day is good point. There is a learning curve that eventually leads to action. Choosing to volunteer in your local community is one choice. Choosing to expose a 911 conspiracy is another, but could be impossible. How about a cause where one can be more 'affective'

I personally like what Thomas Linzey is doing around the country and the world. Check out one of his Democracy School programs and enlist his services to support one of the local causes that you can affect.

He and Mari Margil used to produce an excellent radio show and I highly recommend anyone interested in confronting conspiracy theory with conspiracy fact to listen to some of those shows. Here is a link to the archive for those interested

I personally get pissed at how our local water is polluted with fluoride even though adult teeth are not benefited by fluoride and yet, according to peer reviewed studies, fluoride is toxic and lowers IQ.

"Hmmmm ... Can it really burn steel?"

Just read any 911 skeptic argument and they will claim that the "officials story" is that the buildings came down because the steel "melted". This is a lie. That has never been the claim of why the buildings came down. The NIST report nor any other scientific or even political organization have never claimed that the buildings came down due to steel melting. Claiming so is beyond being a straw man argument, its just blatant intentional deception. They lie to you to convince you of their false logic.

For instance the fires that caused this bridge collapse didn't melt the steel either. But it did however cause the bridge to collapse anyway. What conspiracy theorist (liers) wont tell you is that steel weakens by 50% at the temperatures at which carbon fuels burn. What they also don't mention is that the fuel can also just act as a catalyst for other things that can burn much hotter. For instance the tanker truck or a in the WTC a bunch of office material. What they also wont mention is that the initial explosion is a force in and of itself, out side of the mere affects of heat due to fire. Explosions cause structural damage which makes beams more venerable to heat, such affecting the weight distribution of the structure or also as in the WTC buildings removing the flimsy fire protection away from the steel. What the CT liers wont mention either, is the steel beams that can weaken up to %50 aren't even the most venerable parts of collapse. For instance, heat can easily cause steel beams and girders to expand, thus further altering the weight distribution of the structure and putting too much stress on the ACTUAL week parts of the structure - the bolts that hold the joints together.

This video is in no way attempting to argue that the structure of the bridge and the structure of the buildings are the same. Its merely a real life incident for common people to visualize as evidence that heat has detrimental effects on steel. That is a fact known for a long time. Known for so long that even when the WTC buildings where first built it was required by Federal law (and still is) to have fire proofing in place around the steel beams.
