From what I gather, Larry Silverstein made $500 million dollars simply because that building went down in insurance claims.
You gather wrong, where did you get that from?
Like the trillions of dollars that went missing from the Pentagon. Which was declared by Dick Cheney to the mainstream media a day before 9/11.
Garbage, only truthers claim trillions was missing from the Pentagon, it was known about well before 9/11 and Cheney never said the money was missing...
Yawn.
It's rather tiring that your debating skills are limited to constanstly throwing the "truther" label around.
I suppose I'll pigeonhole you as a "falser". And only "falsers" mislead people by saying "Cheney never said the money was missing", when you probably know very well I'm talking about Donald Rumsfeld who said it on national TV. I suppose the fact that their auditors could not account for 2.3 trillion a day before 9/11 was just a coincidence.
As for Larry Silverstein, that is what I heard years ago. I just did a quick google search of "$500 million" and "Larry Silverstein" and there is a hell of a lot of results supporting what I wrote. If that is false, then show me. Being a "truther" and all, I'm genuinely open to the "truth". Instead of being an automated poster machine that is a closed book and is constantly on the defensive of any information that insinuated that there was possible US government involvement.
What is also interesting is the total ignorance and disregard of real legitimate people like that dutch demolitions expert. Or the endless list of former US marines or military personnel who come forward to say of their suspicions about 9/11 by the same posters here.
For example, this guys view in the video below about Building 7. But hey, he was just a former US MAJOR GENERAL. Just another "twoofer". Let's just disregard what any of these people say. Whether they be proffesional demolitions experts, firefighters, policemen, engineers, architects.... in the thousands.

a reply to: Debunkology Wow, Major General Stumblebum, the "Men Who Stare At Goats" General..... A man who had no experience in Aviation, Demolitions, OR anything in relation to the events that day. Nor did he have any first hand experience with ANY of the sites that day. Whereas the people who WERE there think he is a fruitcake.

Not only had Silverstein insured for too small an amount, he’d also failed to complete policy negotiations before the attacks occurred. As a result he’s been involved with legal fights with the insurers for years, and can only claim $4.6 billion instead of the $7 billion

An Appeal to Authority is a fallacy with the following form: Person A is (claimed to be) an authority on subject S. Person A makes claim C about subject S. Therefore, C is true.

a reply to: Debunkology. You can capitalize MAJOR GENERAL all you want. It does not change the fact that he is nuts or that he has no first hand knowledge, he only has what was spoon fed to him by members if the truth movement.

That is what you claimed, and it shows you do not know much about 9/11!
So you have never even bothered to listen to what Rumsfield said, as he never said the money was missing!
Wrong, that was announced February 2000.... but you ignore that fact as it destroys your silly conspiracy theory!
Those results are from silly conspiracy theory sites....
No, being a truther means you are not interested in the truth, as the truth destroys your conspiracy theory!
You ignore the millions of engineers that do not believe the truther nonsense, and exactly what experience do former military personnel have with building demolition?

Is that the best you can do?

He said the Pentagon couldn't track 2.3 trillion dollar worth of transactions.
What is your point?
He announced it to the press on September 10th 2001.
Not really
for example
www.insurancejournal.com...
No. I am interested in the truth.
I am not really concerned about larry silverstein or the unnacounted 2.3 trillion.
The best you can do is just throw around the "kook" or "truther" label

So you finally watched the video, and realised, like I said, that he never said the money was missing like you falsely claimed!
It was announced in February 2000, he simple repeated it. Do at least try and do some research before posting crap....
Please at least look at the websites you post, nowhere on that site does it state "Larry Silverstein made $500 million dollars" like you claimed.
Then why do you post lies, like 2.3 trillion was missing, when only conspiracy theorists claim that...
Then why did you tell made up stories about them? You could have just posted the truth, but you preferred to lie about them!
The best you can do is post easily debunked silly stories....

Okay, so now you are claiming that people like Daniel Nigro (FDNY Ret) are crisis actors????
Seriously???

How do we even know that these FDNY people you speak of were not crisis actors.
You say that while sitting in your house.
Go to any NYC Fire house and say that.
We will visit you in the hospital.
Can you explain how all these people have kept it a secret for 15 years?
The secret service can't keep hookers secret.
You do realize that all these people qualified for the death penalty in NY state?
Would you put your life on the line with only the word of a secret government official who promised to keep the secret until after all the parties have died?
It's not like people like Oliver North were threw under the bus now is it?
How many governors of Illinois have been put in prison? Was it 6 or 8?
I do know that 4 of the last 7 have gone to the big house.
Yet you seem to believe that the murders could be kept a secret on the word of TPTB.
That is delusional.

As I said, I am not claiming that the FDNY reported or did anything amiss and I am not saying they were all crisis actors, but the FDNY was sacrificed on the alter of truth. Go google the images of WTC7 after the gash, um, no fires it appears. My comments are based on what I saw that day, what I researched after the fact and the science, and of course the OS fairy tale. Too many people died that day, FDNY, police and civi's for what? Profit, greed, power, avarice...
We haven't even touched on the ridiculous story about the pentagon.
Cheers - Dave

Just admit you are calling the firefighters liars. They reported multiple floors fully engulfed in the afternoon. They reported the 20 story hole, the pieces of the building falling off all afternoon, the fact that the southwest corner of the building was effectively gone, they set up the transit that showed the building was slowly shifting......FDNY did that. And you, do not believe them. You rely on a few pictures taken before everyone was cleared away from the building.
LaMont-Doherty's data show that the two waveforms for the collapses were similar but of different duration. The duration of the seismic signal for the collapse of World Trade Center 2, which fell first, was 8 seconds. The duration for WTC1 was 10 seconds.
One source says that the 9/11 panel used 10 seconds for WTC2 but that NIST later revised the estimate to 12 seconds. The FBI's estimates of the fall times are not generally available.

dropped the same way under two different atmospheric temperatures and wind conditions, into basically their own footprints at almost free fall speeds
From video evidence, significant portions of the cores of both buildings (roughly 60 stories of WTC 1 and 40 stories of WTC 2) are known to have stood 15 to 25 seconds after collapse initiation before they, too, began to collapse.
