There is TOO MUCH evidence that says" Demolition" for any rational person to ignore or refute.

All concrete, wire, office materials, human beings, almost any type of forensic evidence, was converted into the huge pyroclastic dust clouds that flowed from WTC 1 & 2.
Staten Island - Eric Beck has worked many construction sites. Nothing prepared him emotionally for the Fresh Kills Landfill, where workers are combing 1.5 million tons of World Trade Center rubble for body parts, personal belongings and potential criminal evidence.
One day, a hand came up with a wedding ring," said Beck, 38, a 17-year member of Laborers Local 17 in Newburgh and a Middle Hope resident. "It almost made me give it up right then."
Machinery bought by Taylor and installed at the landfill separates the rubble with screening equipment, divides the rubble based on size and distributes the metal pieces, concrete chunks and other items to a pair of conveyor belts
About 12-15 barges arrive daily, ferrying debris from Ground Zero in Lower Manhattan. To process 8,000 tons of rubble a day, authorities have enlisted a company in the Town of Montgomery to help the 24 city, state and federal agencies at the landfill
The agents use small rakes to hunt for clues that could help identify victims. Body parts are bagged, tagged and stored at the morgue on site before they are DNA tested. More than 50 victims have been identified from the several thousand body parts recovered at the landfill.
The massive steel support, cut up into sections during and after the collapse, was quickly sent to India and China for scrap metal prices. The largest crime scene ever, bulldozed and collected before a full investigation team could get it's hands on it. I recall the reasoning behind it being "Too painful for America". Like when they bulldozed Waco, and will bulldoze any of us who dare rear our ugly heads.
Its statements like this that show just how little research some people do before they get on ATS and start making posts. The LAST of the steel was not removed from Ground Zero until May 2002. The first stop for ALL of it, was the landfills in NJ/NY where it was examined for remains and evidence value. Structural members that had value as evidence were kept (most of which is stored at JFK in a hanger). Only AFTER it had been examined was it allowed to go to scrap processors. There was nothing "quick" about it. In addition, quite a bit of it, never left the United States.
The National Commission on Terrorist Attacks Upon the United States, also known as the 9/11 Commission, was set up on November 27, 2002 "to prepare a full and complete account of the circumstances surrounding the September 11, 2001 attacks", including preparedness for and the immediate response to the attacks.

This should have been set up as the largest crime scene in the history of the world, and protected by the U.S. Marshal service until the investigation was done.
"This should have been set up as the largest crime scene in the history of the world, and protected by the U.S. Marshal service until the investigation was done."
To what purpose would that have served? Would it have helped identify the hijackers? or confirm that indeed, airliners HAD flown into the buildings?
And dont assume that I assume I am talking to a noob.
Structural engineers were involved in checking out the steel.
The Federal Emergency Management Agency has spent about
$600,000 on the study but has been criticized because its probe relies
partially on volunteer work from engineers scattered across the nation.
Edward DePaola, president of the Structural Engineers Association of
New York, whose members are involved, defended the investigation
yesterday. "We are keeping up with the delivery of the steel to the yards," he said. "Our eyes see every piece that goes through there."
And this guy and his volunteers (from your source) were qualified as forensic crime scene investigators how exactly? On the biggest crime scene ever!? Was he affiliated with the investigation officially in any way, i.e. any L.E. credentials?
It would have helped the free world to determine whether we should attack other countries and send our boys to war, or sit tight and figure out who the perps were.
The "free" world? What right does the free world have to investigate crimes within our borders?
Oh, I see, on the one hand, you do not trust our L.E. agencies and the information they had available in the days after 9/11 about who was responsible, and yet, you want those same people to have investigated the crash sites?
I can't believe you don't know this, but I will engage you for the benefit of others who don't. Law enforcement takes control of a crime scene, and cordons it off to make sure they know who is coming and going.
Who was responsible? I do trust them (L.E.), but the best of them were never independently allowed to investigate. Is FEMA an investigative agency?
And thats where your argument falls apart. What happened that day was treated more as an act of war than a crime.
Law enforcement wouldnt be "independant" and if you read the article, it says that outside engineers were contracted for studying what happened to the building, not Joe Schmoe the federal bureaucrat.

So where are the wires for the demolition charges and where is the explosives residue?.
