Conspiracy theorists are not likely to be persuaded by an attempt to dispel their theories; they may even characterize that very attempt as further proof of the conspiracy...
I'm not supposed to be involved in this. This is for other people. People who have money and all this kind of stuff.
Well I'm not supposed to be involved with this, I don't have nothing.
So Lloyd, whose taxi was struck by a light pole in an area hundreds of feet from the witness established flight path, is shown photographic evidence that his car is located in a different spot than where the plane flew overhead. He cannot legitimately defend himself, and can only deny those accusations despite the photographic evidence that disproves his claims. Lloyd goes on to admit that 9/11 was planned by people with money, and that he was involved in it and used.
These people that have all the money....
This is their thing.
This is their event?
This is for them.
Meaning their doing it for their own reasons?
That's right, I'm not supposed to be in it.
But they used you, right?
I'm in it.
You're in it?
Yeah, we came across the highway together
You and their event?
That's right
Well they must have planned it.
It was planned.

Truer words have never been spoken.

As far as I am aware a relative was in charge of the company in charge of the security. So roughly speaking, yes.
all sniffer dogs were removed
Again, what does this have to do with science? Does really matter if it was ALL or some or most or many?
Very wrong, he was NOT in charge of the company, nor did that company have the security on 9/11 - this is how truthers work, keep repeating much debunked lies!
Evidence of molten steel. That links you to a post earlier in the thread with dozens of witness testimonies claiming to have seen molten steel, as well as photographic and video evidence. I'll go ahead and embed some of the pictures and videos though.
I stopped at the claim that the melting of steel in office fires is impossible and therefore the official explanation can be eliminated. I have yet to see evidence of molten steel.
Plenty of other sources that you didn't name....Great debunking. I've got one: thermite.
Micro spheres have plenty other sources.
Find me a historical precedent where an airplane crashed and the jet fuel turned the aluminum frame completely molten. Besides, molten aluminum is not bright orange, it's silver with a slight pink or orange hue at best.
The molten substance can easily be aluminum.
Since NIST conducted no experimental confirmation to back up their speculation as is typical with them, Steven Jones did those experiments himself. At the bottom of this paper are videos in which aluminum is mixed with solid inorganic materials, and it looks nothing like the uniformly bright orange molten metal seen dripping from the tower.
"Pure liquid aluminum would be expected to appear silvery. However, the molten metal was very likely mixed with large amounts of hot, partially burned, solid organic materials (e.g., furniture, carpets, partitions and computers) which can display an orange glow, much like logs burning in a fireplace. The apparent color also would have been affected by slag formation on the surface."
But I have eliminated those alternatives, I've done my research. In fact if you would have done a quick YouTube search you would have found that molten aluminum is indeed silver and not orange. So really by just taking NISTs explanation as fact without researching it yourself, especially since they conducted no experiments to back up their claim, telling me I'm not investigating is pretty ironic, wouldn't you agree?
Eliminating those alternatives without a good reason is not investigating, it is twisting the fact to fit an agenda.
Maybe because they know that molten steel is bright orange? I just showed you proof that molten aluminum is not orange, it's silver. The witness testimonies don't describe some glowing metal, they describe fully molten metal if you would have actually read them.
I only see glowing steel. How did the witnesses determine it was molten steel and not molten aluminum?
-- William Langewiesche, American Ground: Unbuilding the World Trade Center, North Point Press, New York, 2002, p. 32.
…the rattle of cascading debris, the ominous groaning of weakened structures overhead, or, in the early days, the streams of molten metal that leaked from the hot cores and flowed down broken walls inside the foundation hole.
In the first few weeks, sometimes when a worker would pull a steel beam from the wreckage, the end of the beam would be dripping molten steel
...seeing a crane lift a steel beam vertically from deep within the catacombs of Ground Zero. ‘It was dripping from the molten steel,’ he said.
You’d get down below and you’d see molten steel– molten steel running down the channelways, like you were in a foundry– like lava.
A possible source for micro spheres is fly ash.
Maybe if the airplanes were coal-powered I would buy that
In an industrial context, fly ash usually refers to ash produced during combustion of coal.
Your ignorance astounds me. At least I actually have experiments to back up my position, you're bashing the very experiments that NIST was too incompetent to perform themselves.
And lastly, those experiments with aluminum are just silly.
Fine, if you don't trust the several YouTube videos of molten aluminum and an experiment that debunks NISTs theory that the molten metal was aluminum mixed with solid inorganic materials, then find your own experiments that back up NISTs theory.
They either do not state temperature or they drop it on a huge heat sink.

Molten aluminum can be silvery but also glowing yellow, depending on the temperature. Proof:

It is of course no coincidence that you did not post this video, even though it shows up as one of the first hits on Google. Are you still holding to your position it could not have been aluminum?
consist[s] mostly of silicon dioxide (SiO2), which is present in two forms: amorphous, which is rounded and smooth, and crystalline, which is sharp, pointed and hazardous; aluminium oxide (Al2O3) and iron oxide (Fe2O3). Fly ashes are generally highly heterogeneous, consisting of a mixture of glassy particles with various identifiable crystalline phases such as quartz, mullite, and various iron oxides. Fly ash also contains environmental toxins in significant amounts, including arsenic (43.4 ppm); barium (806 ppm); beryllium (5 ppm); boron (311 ppm); cadmium (3.4 ppm); chromium (136 ppm); chromium VI (90 ppm); cobalt (35.9 ppm); copper (112 ppm); fluorine (29 ppm); lead (56 ppm); manganese (250 ppm); nickel (77.6 ppm); selenium (7.7 ppm); strontium (775 ppm); thallium (9 ppm); vanadium (252 ppm); and zinc (178 ppm).[5]
You sure do love to spin things and try to make people that have a different opinion than you look crazy, but we both know there's much more to it than that. For one, what experiments did NIST do to back up their theories? Because that's all they are is theories, no more than the theories I present, however mine are typically backed by evidence and experiments that you sure love to ridicule.
So your line of reasoning is that NIST didn't do tests with aluminum airplane parts, therefore the only possible explanation is that it was molten iron as result of a thermite reaction and therefore it was an inside job.
Truther: T-R-U-T-H-E-R, I don't know if you struggle typing that word, but you've spelled it a number of various ways and I'm not quite sure why.
Well that looks a like a perfectly normal line of reasoning to me (for a thruther).
Let me make it clear for you then: molten metal. There were dozens of people involved in the clean-up who saw molten metal in the basements of the three towers, and those images of the hot-spots, plus the actual pictures showing the molten metal, plus the video of it dripping from the tower make it impossible for any rational individual to deny the existence of molten metal.
And whatever that image is supposed to show it totally unclear to me.
