Flat out, I was there in Manhattan right off in the water. I know what I saw.
And by the way, I also don't care what you saw on TV of read on the internet.
Most everyone doesn't know # about that day in NY.
So keep y'all damn mouths shut

Everybody ignores the involvement in this disaster of the new owners of the buildings.
I believe he went along witht his plan because the old towers needed a lot of money for renovation and he was locked into leases with low rates. So his incentive was money, how to make more over the term of the lease that he obtained.
It makes sense that they would put explosives into the building, surprised that this is the first time anyone brought this too light.

I've mentioned this before jethro. Unfortunately numerous "theories" have been written up by people solely based on assumptions of their own. It appears that the term "eyewitness" no longer matters. People who were 1,000 miles away write about how popping noises were heard... I always found that interesting considering how they just say "oh people said they heard that". People simply do not want to accept what happened that day and would rather come up with ANY other scenario. It bothers people to accept the fact that there are people who wish every American would die miserably. It bothers people to accept the fact that there are people who tried to accomplish that goal. It makes them happy to assume that it's just the work of some men in suits in our own country. Proof is not necessary.
You want truth about the "coverup"? Here it is. In the days following the attack the scene was considered a rescue effort. Things were carefully NOT moved away by trucks and cranes because there was the hope that they'd find someone under rubble who could be removed alive and we didn't want any living victims crushed by construction vehicles.
After a rational time period had passed it was changed to a recovery effort. Do you comprehend the difference? The recovery effort is more of an "assess the damage, start the cleanup, start to rebuild" kind of idea. Why were things carted out fast? Because this is Manhattan and no one will have a stinking, burning, rotting, pile of steel rubble sitting around for months while conspiracy theorists go through rocks with a magnifying glass. You don't like the explanation? Too bad. It's not your city. This city was ripped to #ing pieces and why should things be left as is until every tom dick and harry around the world is satisfied. The purpose was to remove the graveyard and let the already wounded people of New York heal.
As Jethro said, it's easy to spout off bull# when you weren't there. Anyone posting here more than a few weeks knows my background in the situation and, quite frankly, it pisses me off to read theories like this one written by unqualified fools who have no evidence that their fairy tales are true. I know what noises there were. I heard the creaks from 1 and 2. These fools didn't. What I heard was what I said here ages ago, stressed beams and infrastructure struggling to stay standing under conditions they could not withstand. There were no hidden bombs, it was not a controlled demolition. From where I stood the tops of the buildings looked VERY much in danger of falling crookedly. People were screaming about that too. What if the buildings hit other buildings on the way down? Does a controlled demo look like that? Have you ever seen one in person or heard it? I have. VERY different sounds and look.
I know this is a conspiracy oriented website and I support the seeking of truth. I am disturbed by the fact that sometimes this "seeking of truth" ends up bypassing truth altogether.
I believe explosives were planted and it was a controlled demolition, however no one here, whether in the city that day or 1,000 miles away can prove one way or another what really happened
Oh by the way I dont believe explosives were put in when the buildings were built

Nothing personal but have you ever seen a fire?
I've sadly seen plenty of them. What color smoke were you expecting? White steam? The smoke that spewed out of the buildings from impact to collapse were very clearly black.
I notice no one seems to have any gripes about the "cleanup being fast in order to cover something up" after i explained that the # sat there for three days still smoldering to check for survivors. Sucks when mommy tells you santa isn't real doesn't it.
