I dont recall them flying 767's into skyscrapers. That was the point I was making.
In 1998, U.S. intelligence had information that a group of unidentified Arabs planned to fly an explosives-laden airplane into the World Trade Center, according to a joint inquiry of the House and Senate intelligence committees.

Not exactly on topic, but I still wonder why the "full resources of the United States" haven't been able to convict even one person for the killing of the thousands of citizens in the towers that day?

Watch @ 7:52 for flashes + sound some stories below impact level.

video.google.com...
- Start at 19 min. 17 sec. :
You see WTC1 before the collapse. Then something VERY BIG happens, the video is censored for some seconds. After the "missing" part you see smoke coming from the ground filling the street in the west and raising to the air.. The female voice in the video tells something like "Thats a bo.." BOMB? I couldn't understand completely
-19 min. 40 sec. :
20 SECONDS after this OBVIOUS ground level EXPLOSION, the North tower collapses.

There was not just "one" bomb, there were many sequenced bombs.
C4 tied into thermite. C4 is a steel cutting charge, nickle sized thermite will burn through a engine "big" block in 5seconds or less, and keep burining into the ground. Also used in shotguns AKA "dragons breath" it will catch a desert on fire, turning the sand to glass.
Do some studing, it will be made clear.

Second of all...the people filming it didn't know what was going to happen, my guess is that "they turned off the video a couple of times not knowing what will happen later, they turned it back on when they saw the building collapsing or some other major event"...
You think any regular people would film a regular fire for hours and hours?... I don't think "most people" would do that.

BTW, if there were any "explosives" they would have left large P wave signatures in the seismic graphs from that day, and the only P waves seen are those of the aircraft crashing against the buildings...
This is really crazy, the government coulnd't hide "the watergate scandal" which should have been easily hidden, yet people want to claim the government has performed "miracles to hide all the true evidence behind what happened in 9/11"?.....

1. Thermite on WTC Steel. First of all Thermite is NOT used in controlled demolitions, At least not from what I have learned. ( please correct me if im wrong) IF thermite was used on the impact floors, in order to somehow assist in the demolition. In order to cause the outflow of molten metal it would take tons and TONS of thermite to have this effect. Please keep in mind that there was a VERY large airplane made up of aluminum.
2.Pools of Molten Metal..again..Thermite is not used in demolitions, say however that this molten metal was at the base from an sub-basement explosion. This explosion would have been detected by seismograph "spikes". (please see #4)
3.Why did they ship the rubble....They didnt ship it right away. It was all taken to a site where it was all placed on conveyors to search for a wide assortment of things, ie: body parts, whatever...I did have a picture of the site, I just cant seem to locate it.
Again, I am searching for the truth. I did not accept the "Offical Story", so I intend to be just as cautious when it comes to accepting any alternative theory.

[Thermite is not used in "conventional" demolitions. As far as the bomb in the basement. Answer me this: If the bomb went off at the same time (or close enough) to the plane impact, could they decipher between the two events? Read William Rodriguez's testimony of the bomb going off a few seconds before the first plane impact. It would be a very convenient cover for the siezmograph spikes, would it not?

but, what held the building up after that?
and if the core was blown in the basement...what caused it to drop from the top down?

ok so i didnt mean the "top" per se, but you know what i mean i hope. a classic demo goes bottom up...this one didnt.

If they used nanothermate (which has reaction rates 1000x and temperatures at least 2x that of basic thermite) not as much would be needed.
Thermite is not used in "conventional" demolitions.
The were allowed access to certain members of the steel after someone else had hand picked what they could see. So, the government was keeping the government from doing a full study...why?
