Oh so now you are calling me a liar? Please quote the part where I am lying. That's quite an accusation there. Yes I know no cables were used. But people on this thread are claiming that Larry or someone said to "pull it" and that it was a reference to demolishing the building.

Show me where I called other people idiots. And as for research again, Am I the one claiming they said to pull it to demolish the building when as you pointed out there are no cables pulling the building? Might wanna re-think about research.
Originally posted by snoopy
Because you claim I didn't research because I asked where the cables were. It was in jest because of the implications being made about the term pull it which means using cables. By now understanding the conversation you were replying to, you put your foot in your mouth. An d you put your foot in your mouth again by trying to turn the expression around incorrectly.

So you don't have any expertise? And then are you claiming that the demolition experts are all in denial? how can it be that people who do this for a living don't see any signs of a controlled demolition when it's so obvious to you? What do you know that the experts don't?

not a single one.

If the sides stay perfectly vertical, then it didn't telescope. And have you seen all the damage that the collapse did to the surrounding areas?
Originally posted by snoopy
So you're saying that the demolition experts are all blind then? And no one claimed it collapsed from fire, that was just one of the factors.
Originally posted by snoopy
Yes it is like the twilight zone because you seem to think that all the experts don't know what they are talking about and that you, someone with no education on the subject does.
Originally posted by snoopy
You seem to think that because two things look similar to you that they must be. A long time ago people saw ships disappear over the horizon and concluded the earth was flat because thy could see it right in front of their eyes. But scientists showed them that it only *looked* that way to them and that the world was really flat.
Originally posted by snoopy
you're essentially trying to tell me the world is flat in context of WTC 7. Again, I apologize, but I am going to go with the experts who have years of training and studying doing this stuff over someone who's only expertise in demolition is looking at a clip of video.

The pull it comment is not even an issue wetter he meant the building or whatever....
Just look at the darn building being demolished....... there's your damn proof....
You even see the explosion smoke flow coming from the bottom of the building right before it's demolished just like a controlled demolition....
First the bombs goes boom and then the building falls into it's own footprints....

This is just too absurd to even acknowledge. Ultima at least brings some facts to the table, he doesn't pass off uneducated (in terms of the topic) opinions and try to use opinion to dismiss facts. I am hitting ignore. not because you're a bad person, but because it's simply going to waste space and time in the thread if I keep responding to you. So if I don't respond, it's not because I am actively ignoring you, it's because i won't see your posts.

You HAVE to be kidding me. OK, I am not going to even bother replying to you any more.

@anyone else: does ANYONE really think that if it wasnt safe for firemen that they'd even FIND a demo crew crazy enough to go in and plant explosives? yeah theres my idea of fun, run into a damaged building thats still on fire and not safe enough for the firefighters while humping in crates of munitions. id rather urinate on an electric fense.
Originally posted by Damocles
yeah, there are a LOT of questions not explained by the official story, but lord there are just as many or more not explained by a controlled demo theory.
Originally posted by selfless
The experts who propose these claims are people who are paid to do so....
Maybe you didn't know but there once were scientists who were paid to tell the populations that tobacco is not bad for your health. Just because the experts being paid to say such lies did not magically made the tobacco not dangerous for peoples healths.
You have to look at the experts opinions who comes from an independent source and not associated with the cover up operations. Otherwise your biased experts opinions are nothing else then a paid opinion.

everyone talks about how this or that violates this or that law of physics but completely ignore the laws of physics when it comes to how explosives work and how they would have to work in order to fit the CD theories. i find that mildly amusing but after a while it gets tedious.

I showed a video that shows the WTC7 and another building being demolished with explosives and the results are identical. That can't be denied but it can be ignored...

Damocles,
Do you think the way the buildings fell that it's consistent with what would naturally happen if the buildings were faced with that situation?
Untampered?
Originally posted by Damocles
ill disagree with anyone from EITHER side of the debate that says we have enough information on the extent of the damage to 7 to KNOW why it came down. there isnt enough to say "it was inevitable" nor is there enough to say "it was barely scratched". unless i missed some great photos of the damaged side, i just personaly dont have enough data to know.
Originally posted by Damocles
also to consider. in the case of the towers, they were the ONLY two buildings built the way they were, so even comparing them to other steel buildings isnt accurate.
Originally posted by Damocles
so, we're back to we dont know what we dont know, and to simply fill in the blanks with "explosives" is to me, jumping the gun.
Originally posted by Damocles
but another point to ponder is if there WERE explosions throughout the day, why didnt parts of the building collapse sooner? if youre blasting something in an effort to bring the building down, chances are wahtever youre blasting is part of the load bearing structure....seems SOME part of the building would have fallen before the rest of it then doesnt it?
Originally posted by Damocles
edit to add: in regards to the photos, ok, other buildings were damaged, but unless we KNOW how much damage 7 had taken, isnt it unfair to say they were damaged worse? even if they were damaged worse, what about the building design? what coudl be damaging to one building may be fatal to another thats built differently. just saying we dont know what we dont know
Originally posted by selfless
No it's not unfair to state that a building that's been literally cut in half was damaged worst then the WTC7, that's a fact. And it didn't collapse either.
Maybe they are designed differently but it's highly convenient that the one building that held valuable information that could have put responsible people behind this incident in serious trouble, is the building that collapsed from a fire... ( I really don't buy it that it came down from a fire)...

@ultima: which IC classes were these, cuz maybe i just didnt pay close enough attention in mine but it was never indicated to us we could order the destruction of buildings on our own...but what WAS stressed was to document everything as we did it...and id thnk that ordering the destruction of a building would be written down somewhere. has anyone found anything anywhere that indicated the IC ordered the destruction of 7 or are we basing this ALL off the "pull it" comment? just wondering

Well i guess you did not read the firechiefs timeline where it states they were worried about the building causing damage to other buildings and spreading fires.
I guess you saw the video of the hard hat workers who are comming out of the evacuated area ( the one they evacuated the firemen back beyond a safety zone) stating the buildingis comming down.
I guess you also missed the reports from police and first responders stating they heard the countdown for building 7 over their radios.
I also assume you know about chemical and mechanical beam cutters in your experience ?
