The new rage seems to be the WTC MicroNuke Hypothesis. Key evidence being cited are the images of the "Melted Cars" etc.

What caused any of these cars to burn at all?
Falling burning debris?
In the case of nuclear explosives the situation is more complicated because the different kinds of radiations can have a variety of effects, especially if they are very penetrating, as is the case for high energy neutrons and gamma rays. The most important of these effects are as follows:
**** Heat the volume of a material. Penetrating high energy radiations neutrons, pions,15 or high energy gamma rays)will easily cross a low density intervening medium such as air and deposit their energy deep into any high density material. As a result, a substantial (i.e., centimeter to meter thick) layer of a bomb irradiated material can be brought to a temperature sufficiently high for it to melt, vaporize, or even explode. ****

well that's because some rubble
falls here and some falls there . nothing conspiratoral about it .

the truthers have a new bandwagon to jump on to help make their "case".
and for those with a little less sense than others , the reason one car got burn't up and the one next to it did'nt , well that's because some rubble
falls here and some falls there . nothing conspiratoral about it .

The only thing I can surmise is the one link to 4th generation micro-nukes suggests it is quite possible to build one that has next to NO residual radioactivity to detect.
The radiation emitted from the blast, particularly in the middle of the X-ray band where most of the fusion bomb's radiation is concentrated, stops on impact with atoms, thus they have a short life and leave nominal residual radiation"
