As to why the government continues to cover this up, please remember the Anthrax Attacks that followed the 9/11 Attacks. The Anthrax is still out there and many more letters are being threatened if the government (or the media) allows or encourages another investigation. 4 letters crippled this nation in 2001. 100 letters would destroy it. No investigation will occur as a result of this.
I wish I wasn't right about this.

Kerry's reference to a 30 year conspiracy indicates that he is suggesting that the OS is basically true, and that the 9/11 perps were Arab terrorists. It was in the late 60's and early 70's when Middle East terrorism began showing up on the world scene in a big way. Remember Munich in 1972? From what I heard, it sounds like he was suggesting that 9/11 was in the same vein as the classic terrorist plots from those regions.
As far as how the towers were "wired" to drop, please keep in mind that explosive devices are now triggered by wireless transmissions (IED's in Iraq and Afghanistan are all cell phone triggered bombs). The blasts in the towers, including cutter charges, were triggered by RF signals transmitted by a low wattage, UHF transmitter that was sequenced by a laptop from a nearby building (line of sight broadcast). Once the planes hit their targets, the firing sequence of the C4 charges and Thermate cutters, were quickly reconfigured to initiate at the respective impact points. This was to cause the initial structure failures to appear to be caused by the impacts themselves.
These C4 demo charges were attached via magnet to the inner steel matrix (core) and placed with one man operating a freight elevator (there were many within the core maintenance compound) and two men standing atop it and setting the numbered charge packages in critical joints from floor to floor as the elevator operator brought them one floor at a time (or two floor intervals depending on the demo plan). This process probably took a weekend with multiple teams in multiple elevator shafts being done in concurrent activity.
When the planes hit, the numbered transmission frequencies (each freq assigned to a specific charge grouping) where then adjusted to initiate at the impact zone for each building, and the rest of the drop sequence was left as originally configured for optimum drop speed and efficiency once the collapse began. The C4 explosions were deep inside the core of each building, and this prevented them from being seen from the exterior, as the large steel beams at the blast point were thrown out and through the outer perimeter web structure as each floor's blast pack arrangement fired. This freed the drop from all resistance as the entire mass of debris continued in a free-fall downward momentum.

Then open with that. Don't start with the "new investigation" stuff, that could mean anything. And in the context of most of these confrontations it usually means something other than what the "movement" is actually aiming for. Just plain deceptive.

You first need a fair and honest request. Put in plain language what and why you want it investigated.

A 30 year old conspiracy takes us back to the early 1980's. The beginning of the Reagan years and also the beginning of the Bush years.
The Bush daddy fresh from being the director of the CIA, in the oil business, in bed with the Saudi's. I am betting that is the origin of the 30 year old conspiracy Kerrey is referring to. Its another follow the money exercise and I am guessing the whole 9/11 thing circles right back to G.H.W. Bush. He and Jeb recently paid a visit to the White House to see Zero, the puppetmaster checking on the strings.

Your not right about this, no offense
The Anthrax was a high grade Military Anthrax, traced back to Fort Detrick,
Frederick Maryland.
The Anthrax was sent to two Democratic Congressmen who were voting no
to the Patriot Act.
A patsy was set up and blamed as the only one invovled, Bruce Edwards
Ivins. He committed SUICIDE on being told of the pending investigation.

Almost perfect obfuscation.
Nowhere in that lengthy statement do you make any factual reference or provide any desciptors.
If you don't know what and why you are investigating, how do you know who should be doing the investigating? Lets say a Congressman is going to do this "investigation". Who does he/she hire to help him/her? A Doctor? A Lawyer? A Carpenter, plumber, cook, engineer, truckdriver, etc? What kind of research? Who should be subpeona? What records should be requested? Who should or should not be on the investigation staff? Who may have conflicts of interest?
Just give me an outline of the investigation. Where do you want to start? Who should be questioned first?
Quoting Lincoln doesn't mean a thing.

Well, if you don't know what happened may I suggest you read the 9/11 Commission Report....

Do you OS defenders all go to the same training classes? This tactic stopped being effective in 2005. You need to get out more often. That kind of demand is just intellectual laziness on your part.

Been asking the same question for years and still no answer, just a little temper tantrum "I want a new investigation, I want a new investigation and I am going to hold my breath until I get one"!!!
Every investigation needs a resolution. What would your little investigation seek to resolve? And if you answer "what happened on 9/11" then you're done, because that has been done.
all your doing is wasting peoples time...and confusing the argument..
