It can't be proven now as I'm sure the loose ends have been tied.

But you can't really claim that the nationality of the hijackers is a hole in the story. It makes it more likley that the OS is correct, at least in its key areas, because someone designing the narrative with the intention of invading Iraq would have surely made them Iraqi.

Some of you seem like fairly intelligent people... I just don't get it.
This pilot is obviously very skilled pilot in looking at his military career.
The statement from him stating that he's 100% certain that 9/11 was an inside job most likely has much to do with having discussed that day with other military pilots.
.... that the maneuvers performed by the planes and so called hijacker pilots were not only beyond the skill level and/or capabilities of most pilots but also beyond the capabilities of most passenger aircraft.
....that those planes under normal circumstances should have been intercepted.
But that day due to the Military exercises leaving only 6 active aircraft guarding the entire east coast ?
As well as another exercise that simulated highjacked aircraft by placing 20 or so unidentified radar blips on the Air Traffic Controller's screens ?
But what happened that day had much to do with policies concerning the downing of commercial aircraft by Norad's interceptors. Which had been changed....conveniently immediately prior to 9/11.
In essence, no planes were to be fired upon/brought down over US airspace without GW's AND Rumsfeld's approval.
I see constant references to the 9/11 Commission Report. What about Mineta's testimony to the commission that Dick Cheney watched Flight 77 from 50 miles out approach and eventually crash into the Pentagon ?
And did absolutely nothing !
And finally, what did GW do when informed of the events unfolding on 911....he paused briefly and then continued reading the book "My Pet Goat" to the class !

I would like to ask a few questions on the wtc tragedy and hopefully iron out a few misconceptions a long the way.
For my self I have never bought the Idea of americans Killing Americans.I saw the world trade centre hit by planes, I saw them burn and I saw them collapse. At the time i thought it was a little odd how they fell straight down. I thanked God, as it could have been much worse if they had toppled.
I think the straight down bit is the only thing that made my antenie twitch , but only a little.
So thats roughly where I was with it for a long time.
Income the conspiracies.
I have a few questions that hopefully more learned on the subject can answer.
It certainly looks like a demolition job,i suppose even to the most untrained eye. What are the chances of two buildings,( I know there was a third, but lets leave that for now) Being hit by planes burning and then falling down in what must be the best position anyone could have hoped for under the circumstances. If these buildings had fallen over the consequences would have been terrible. Thats the first thing that i need to clear up.
Secondly , cast your minds back to a few years before 9/11. The basement/foundations were attacked by a terrorist group weakening the buildings for all we know. In a way that could prepare the buildings for straightdown collapse. Just thinking out loud here.
This new Military man says he thinks it's a demo job, and maybe we should believe him. I still have a problem though, Why oh Why would an Americam administration do something like this. If they wanted a war, fine go have one,I'm sure they could have come up with hundreds of prefabricated excuses to start something where ever they chose. So why would they decide to bring down 3 major buildings in New York city and also try to destroy their own goverment defence building the "Pentagon".
This is the reason i run into mucho problems with the Inside job. I just can't think of a reason for the US goverment to do this to their own people and their own country.
Please chime in with your reason why they would. Anticipating your responses

I certainly hope so. With this particular issue, I think more and more people are going to start popping up with credible source. As they do, maybe the masses will finally be open to the possibility that there was something deeper going on than just an attack.
Flag!

Wow, that's pretty strong stuff. Talk about a credible opinion!
For me, I tend to try to boil things down to their basics, or to try to look for an anomaly that discredits the "official story". In this case the "anomaly" is the fact that the Patriot Act was written so quickly and had so many specifics that were targeted at giving the gov't more power. I've always wondered how they got that thing written so quickly. It had to have been written beforehand and was just waiting for the right moment to be sprung on us. What better way than to create a bogeyman?
So, according to debunkers I am supposed to believe that a stucture weighing over 200,000 tons dissolved into a clould of dust in a matter of seconds because of a small amount of kerosene (or jet fuel as it is sometimes called.) Either of the twin towers was easily 1000 times more massive than a puny little jet plane. They were also made of harder stuff.

I love the way you have no faith in anything the US government says or does, unless it's Jesse Ventura doing the talking, and then we're supposed to be impressed because he's a former governor.

I like to watch this video of old Tex doing his barrel roll maneuver in the prototype Boeing 707. These huge aircraft are more controllable than you think. Man I love to watch this video. He is one hell of a pilot.

Now I am not saying that the highjackers had the skill, but it does not take that long to get the hang of operating a machine if you understand how it functions. I think that you should quit using this excuse as a means to try to portray the 911 conspiracy. It only hurts the truther scene.
I believe that there is more to the story than the msm reports, but you cannot go around spreading false data and assumptions to get people to "believe".edit on 24-2-2011 by liejunkie01 because: vid link
In production engineering, metallurgy is concerned with the production of metallic components for use in consumer or engineering products. This involves the production of alloys, the shaping, the heat treatment and the surface treatment of the product. The task of the metallurgist is to achieve design criteria specified by the mechanical engineer, such as cost, weight, strength, toughness, hardness, corrosion and fatigue resistance, and performance in temperature extremes.
