What Really Happened on 9/11?

I think of that movie, "Invasion of the Body Snatchers" All the ones still thinking 911 went down exactly the way the Commission said it did are the ones that have been taken over by the Body Snatchers,,,basically :The Pod People. Soon they will all start pointing at the non believers and making those funny noises when someone challenges their cherished official gov version and we will be carted off to an Israeli death camp..

I have repeatedly said on this board that I think it is highly probable that the Administration had prior knowledge. I do not pretend to know how deep that knowledge was.

That being said, I do support the "official story" if by that you mean the WTC towers were brought down by hijacked airliners and the intense multi-story fires that followed.


I think it entirely plausible that the administration let the attacks happen through incompetence, or more likely design.

That is an easy conspiracy to cover up, and if true they have been fairly successful at it.

Exotic controlled demolition techniques with backwards timing and R/C detonators used on two of the biggest buildings in the world with no one noticing is ludicrous, IMHO.

There are different degrees to both sides of the demo argument, and calling a whole group "pod people" who can't think for themselves is pretty disingenuous when you consider the amount of trickery and outright lies available on most pro demo sites, and often repeated here.

Pro demo? What if it is a demolition that hasn't even been brought up. What do you think when you see those towers being turned to dust? Conventional demolition or something else? I dont think any building 110 stories has been brought down using conventional means, IE placed charges. What if it was a particle accelerator? Remember the research on the super collider and then it lost funding and disappeared never to be heard from again? We are dealing with something more advanced than demolition charges and a pancaking trussel effect. Call me a scifi whacko. Id like to see if a Professional Demolition company could bring down a full scale replica of the WTC towers,,,bet they couldn't do it.

I've noticed something...when you bring up the idea that the WTC 1, 2 (and they didnt even know about WTC7) a LOT of people(the ones who dont laugh it off) will look like they had an ephiphamy...a lot of people Ive told this to have said 'you know, I didnt want to say anything, but something was weird how those towers fell from just those planes'.

Sadly, people are so scared to even consider the implications of what that means, that 9/11 truth may still reside on the fringe for some time to come.

I assumed he was using "they" to mean all the towers, especially since he brought up the planes.

So the towers fell within 0.8-4.8 seconds of freefall in a vacuum.

That part of the quote is refering to WTC 1&2....

Sorry I wasn't very clear, but if you had checked the source it came from it would have made more sense.

Free fall? Hardly. Allow me to illustrate the difference. (forgive the crappy mspaint job)

The level of the complete disintegration of the buildings, where they were mushrooming all over the place, didn't proceed at free fall speed. However the waves of destruction running down the buildings were not far off it. You need to watch videos of the collapse from below to really see this effect.

Here's a video of the collapse of WTC2 from the south near the base:

You can see the wave of concrete and debris blasting out from the building run down the exterior of the structure. The blasts proceed at a constant velocity, almost in a mechanical fashion, and are actually ahead of the collapse itself. It's not until the blast waves are a little over half way down the building that the falling debris from the disintegration zone above, accelerating under gravity, over-takes the blast waves.

Here's a capture:



Sorry, LB...I just couldn't resist.

Here's another couple of videos from below where the effect is very clear:
