What Melted Cop Cars 7 Blocks From WTC On 911?

What Melted Cop Cars 7 Blocks From WTC On 911?

The official story about 911 is that burning airplane fuel weakened the steel buildings at the World Trade Center, causing them to collapse. But if that is true, how can one explain the strange damage inflicted upon autos as far away as FDR drive (7 blocks from the WTC )?

A reported 1400 vehicles were damaged on 9/11. [ Reference] These vehicles had peculiar patterns of damage and some were as far away as FDR Drive (about 7 blocks from the WTC, along the East River). Vehicles had missing door handles for example, windows blown out, window frames deformed, melted engine blocks, steel-belted tires with only the steel belts left, and vehicle front ends destroyed with little or no effect on the back end of the vehicles. What could have caused such extraordinary damage? Portions of cars burned while paper nearby did not.

Peculiar wilting of car doors and deformed window surrounds on FDR Drive.

Map of lower Manhattan shows the WTC and FDR Drive a half mile or more apart.

Blistered car on FDR Drive with unburned upholstery and unburned plastic window molding.

Front half of a car burned with a shiny, unburned rear end.

What burned and dragged these cars and mangled the left rear wheel? Where are the door handles?

What was this thing across the street? Was it a car? Was it a van? What caused that line of burn marks on the hood of the car in the foreground on the right? In the left foreground, the remains of a vehicle sit atop a white sedan. Are we looking at the front or the back end? It looks like the front end and if it is, its engine is missing. We can see daylight through the wheelwell.

Peeling Appearance

Many vehicles had their outer surface peeled away like a sardine can. In some instances, clearly there is more than peeling paint was involved. It appears that the sheet metal delaminated as though something caused the material to melt or disintegrate at a certain depth. In some cases it appears that there was more heat damage inside than outside and vice versa.

What happened to the axles, wheels, and tires? On the doors, it appears that a heavy layer of paint peeled down from the top, yet the paint on the lower part of the doors has not been peeled away. Wow did the wheel get under the rear suspension?

The car with the flat tire appears to have "wilted" from heat, from the top down, leaving a peeling appearance on the back end. The SUV on its right is missing all its window glass except for the windshield. The vehicle on the far right has no trace of tires, no door handles, no tail lights, and no windows. Why?

The peeling on the side door appears to be delaminated. Sheet metal is not laminated, so why would it do this?

Why does this ambulance have melted inside doors? The inside looks to have suffered more heat damage than the outside. What would cause that?

Oddly enough, there were also toasted cars at the Pentagon on 9/11. This is the same vehicle shown in the previous figure after the fires were extinguished. Why is the passenger door burned? Note how the hood is curled up.

Other Anomalies

The pictures below document a wide variety of damage to vehicles, including total incineration of vehicles, toasted and disappeared engine blocks, steel-belted tires with no rubber and only steel belts, deformed wheels, missing grills, broken and missing vehicle windows and mirrors, no door handles, wilted doors, and unburned paper next to burning cars.

A badly damaged firetruck. Where did its engine go? The bottom of the tire has turned to goo below a distict horizontal line in the tire.

Why would the front of this fire truck wilt?

Is there something attractive about engine blocks? Why not gasoline fuel tanks?

The mail truck parked on the left side of the street looks burnt. Why? The building on the left is the USPS Federal Building and on the right is WTC7. WTC5 is on fire at the end of the street. Why? If this area is hot enough for spontaneous combustion, why isn't the paper on fire? The cars on the right side of the street are also toasted.

Cars along FDR drive were randomly toasted. These cars are at least 1/2 mile away from the WTC. Note the waviness of the tire tracks. What happened?

Did one car run under the other during the event or were they stacked after the event? The marks in the pavement suggest they were pushed to the side of the road.

Wheels appear to have steel-belts from the tires still on them.

The front end of this FDNY car is toasted and mildly deformed, while the door appears undamaged and the window glass is intact. The debris on this car suggests it was near the WTC.

While the bodies of these toasted vehicles still exist, they've been incinerated. All of the softer materials inside and out have disappeared.

This Toasted Interior was consumed except for the fire extinguisher.

The front half of car 2723 is toasted, but check out the new wax job on the back. Notice the missing front door handle and the untouched back door handle.

What happened to the top half of car 1250? The doors are crinkled up, but the rear tire looks OK.

There is extensive damage to the front of car 2723, including no door handle on the driver's door. There is an unusual, unburned circular area on the rear door.

Towed?

In the debate over toasted cars ignited by this article, some have argued that the wrecked vehicles on FDR drive were damaged at the WTC and were loaded up and transported and dumped on FDR drive for storage. First, there is no evidence that this was done. Second, it makes no sense to load up wrecks, transport them, only to dump them in a busy thoroughfare for storage. These wrecks would have had to be picked up yet again and transported again. If vehicles were truly moved from the WTC to FDR Drive, we wonder why WTC steel beams were not stacked up on FDR drive, as well, if it was such a good storage area. Third, governments may be stupid, but we doubt they could be this inefficient. If reported, it would have been a minor scandal. Fourth, we might be wrong about the facts here, but it looks like the motive for this speculation about shifting wrecks around lower Manhattan is to protect the official story or thermite story or other pet theories. We fail to see any other explanation for such a "forced" interpretation for these photographs. Fifth, marks on the roadway suggest that some of these vehicles were pushed to the side of the roadway until they could be removed. For example, see this figure. This is a more natural explanation for why some of the cars appear to have been moved from where they were damaged rather than all the way from the WTC.

Burning Cars

This fire seems to be very selective.

A minivan is consumed by flames. The fire rages inside the vehicle, contained by the remaining windows. The fire appears more intense at the front where the engine is.

The tires and even the pavement under the car are on fire. The windows appear to be intact with no visible interior fire. There is line of fire along the trunk lid. The right front fender is deformed and has turned white.

A fire rages, apparently on Vesey Street, sending up thick black smoke. These may be the vehicles that eyewitness described as she ran past WTC6 during the destruction of WTC2.

Why doesn't the paper burn?

Missing Windows

No window? What happened to the rear-view mirror?

Why is the rubber window gasket hanging outward?

Sans windows. (But nice tire!)

Why is the paper shredded but nothing else apparently disturbed?

What blew out the windows without damaging the rest of the fire truck?

The window gasket is on the outside. What blew out the windows? What dislodged the front grill?

It didn't blow out just the middle portion of the windows; it blew out the windows all the way back to the frame where it was mounted.

Hosing down the windowless fire truck.

Final cleaning of the windowless fire truck. Notice its grill is missing.

What could have caused such extensive damage to this car? Has the passenger side shoulder harness survived? Where's the steering wheel?

Why is this fire truck burnt? It is missing its front grill, headlights, and related fron end brightwork. Where are the tires?

Most of the 1400 toasted cars had some, if not all, windows missing. What would cause this? Figure yy, below, shows a silver convertible with its top apparently intact but missing some of its window glass. If the windows were blown out from pressure inside, we would expect the convertible top to have been torn or blown off. This suggests that the windows were not blown out by internal pressure, but may have been shattered by some other mechanism.

The cars parked in the back suffered extensive damage. The car on the left and on the far right look like they have had their engines eaten. The cars in the foreground experienced less damage, but many windows are missing, however partial and whole windows also remain.

Why is this windshield crumpled up? Curiously, the interior of the car does not appear to contain anything that crashed through the windshield.

Actor Charlie Sheen Questions Official 9/11 Story

2006-05-13T08:57:00.000-04:00

Calls for truly independent investigation, joins growing ranks of prominent credible whistleblowers

Alex Jones & Paul Joseph Watson/Prison Planet.com | March 20 2006

Actor Charlie Sheen has joined a growing army of other highly credible public figures in questioning the official story of 9/11 and calling for a new independent investigation of the attack and the circumstances surrounding it.

Over the past two years, scores of highly regarded individuals have gone public to express their serious doubts about 9/11. These include former presidential advisor and CIA analyst Ray McGovern, the father of Reaganomics and former Assistant Secretary of the US Treasury Paul Craig Roberts, BYU physics Professor Steven Jones, former German defense minister Andreas von Buelow, former MI5 officer David Shayler, former Blair cabinet member Michael Meacher, former Chief Economist for the Department of Labor during President George W. Bush's first term Morgan Reynolds and many more.

Speaking to The Alex Jones Show on the GCN Radio Network, the star of current hit comedy show Two and a Half Men and dozens of movies including Platoon and Young Guns, Sheen elaborated on why he had problems believing the government's version of events.

Sheen agreed that the biggest conspiracy theory was put out by the government itself and prefaced his argument by quoting Theodore Roosevelt in stating, "That we are to stand by the President right or wrong is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public."

"We're not the conspiracy theorists on this particular issue," said Sheen.

"It seems to me like 19 amateurs with box cutters taking over four commercial airliners and hitting 75% of their targets, that feels like a conspiracy theory. It raises a lot of questions."

Sheen described the climate of acceptance for serious discussion about 9/11 as being far more fertile than it was a couple of years ago.

"It feels like from the people I talk to in and around my circles, it seems like the worm is turning."

Suspicious collapse of buildings

Sheen described his immediate skepticism regarding the official reason for the collapse of the twin towers and building 7 on the day of 9/11.

"I was up early and we were gonna do a pre-shoot on Spin City, the show I used to do, I was watching the news and the north tower was burning. I saw the south tower hit live, that famous wide shot where it disappears behind the building and then we see the tremendous fireball."

"There was a feeling, it just didn't look any commercial jetliner I've flown on any time in my life and then when the buildings came down later on that day I said to my brother 'call me insane, but did it sorta look like those buildings came down in a controlled demolition'?"

Sheen said that most people's gut instinct, that the buildings had been deliberately imploded, was washed away by the incessant flood of the official version of events from day one.

Sheen questioned the plausibility of a fireballs traveling 1100 feet down an elevator shaft and causing damage to the lobbies of the towers as seen in video footage, especially when contrasted with eyewitness accounts of bombs and explosions in the basement levels of the buildings.

Regarding building 7, which wasn't hit by a plane, Sheen highlighted the use of the term "pull," a demolition industry term for pulling the outer walls of the building towards the center in an implosion, as was used by Larry Silverstein in a September 2002 PBS documentary when he said that the decision to "pull" building 7 was made before its collapse. This technique ensures the building collapses in its own footprint and can clearly be seen during the collapse of building 7 with the classic 'crimp' being visible.

The highly suspicious collapse of building 7 and the twin towers has previously been put under the spotlight by physics Professor Steven Jones and Kevin Ryan of Underwriters Laboratories, the company that certified the steel components used in the construction of the World Trade Center towers.

"The term 'pull' is as common to the demolition world as 'action and 'cut' are to the movie world," said Sheen.

Sheen referenced firefighters in the buildings who were eyewitnesses to demolition style implosions and bombs.

"This is not you or I watching the videos and speculating on what we saw, these are gentlemen inside the buildings at the very point of collapse."

"If there's a problem with building 7 then there's a problem with the whole thing," said Sheen.

Bush's behavior on 9/11

Sheen then questioned President Bush's actions on 9/11 and his location at the Booker Elementary School in Florida. Once Andy Card had whispered to Bush that America was under attack why didn't the secret service immediately whisk Bush away to a secret location?

By remaining at a location where it was publicly known the President would be before 9/11, he was not only putting his own life in danger, but the lives of hundreds of schoolchildren. That is unless the government knew for sure what the targets were beforehand and that President Bush wasn't one of them.

"It seems to me that upon the revelation of that news that the secret service would grab the President as if he was on fire and remove him from that room," said Sheen.

The question of how Bush saw the first plane hit the north tower, when no live footage of that incident was carried, an assertion that Bush repeated twice, was also put under the spotlight.

"I guess one of the perks of being President is that you get access to TV channels that don't exist in the known universe," said Sheen.

"It might lead you to believe that he'd seen similar images in some type of rehearsal as it were, I don't know."

The Pentagon incident

Sheen outlined his disbelief that the official story of what happened at the Pentagon matched the physical evidence.

"Show us this incredible maneuvering, just show it to us. Just show us how this particular plane pulled off these maneuvers. 270 degree turn at 500 miles and hour descending 7,000 feet in two and a half minutes, skimming across treetops the last 500 meters."

We have not been able to confirm that a large commercial airliner hit the Pentagon because the government has seized and refused to release any footage that would show the impact.

"I understand in the interest of national security that maybe not release the Pentagon cameras but what about the Sheraton, what about the gas station, what about the Department of Transportation freeway cam? What about all these shots that had this thing perfectly documented? Instead they put out five frames that they claim not to have authorized, it's really suspicious," said Sheen.

Sheen also questioned how the plane basically disappeared into the Pentagon with next to no wreckage and no indication of what happened to the wing sections.

Concerning how the Bush administration had finalized Afghanistan war plans two days before 9/11 with the massing of 44,000 US troops and 18,000 British troops in Tajikistan and Uzbekistan, and in addition the call for "some catastrophic and catalyzing event - like a new Pearl Harbor," as outlined in the PNAC documents, Sheen stated, "you don't really put those strategies together overnight do you for a major invasion? Those are really well calculated and really well planned."

"Coincidence? We think not," said Sheen and he called the PNAC quotes "emblematic of the arrogance of this administration."

A real investigation

Sheen joined others in calling for a revised and truly independent investigation of 9/11.

Sheen said that "September 11 wasn't the Zapruder film, it was the Zapruder film festival," and that the inquiry had to be, "headed, if this is possible, by some neutral investigative committee. What if we used retired political foreign nationals? What if we used experts that don't have any ties whatsoever to this administration?"

"It is up to us to reveal the truth. It is up to us because we owe it to the families, we owe it to the victims. We owe it to everybody's life who was drastically altered, horrifically that day and forever. We owe it to them to uncover what happened."

Charlie Sheen joins the rest of his great family and notably his father Martin Sheen, who has lambasted for opposing the Iraq war before it had begun yet has now been proven right in triplicate, in using his prominent public platform to stand for truth and justice and we applaud and salute his brave efforts, remembering Mark Twain's quote.

"In the beginning of a change, the patriot is a scarce man, brave, hated, and scorned. When his cause succeeds however, the timid join him, for then it costs nothing to be a patriot."

CNN Produces
Balanced Piece On Sheen 9/11 Comments

911 Blogger | March 23 2006

Comment: We are amazed and flabbergasted by how fair this piece is and it should help encourage other high profile figures in the public eye like Charlie Sheen to come forward.

CNN Showbiz Tonight Covers Charlie Sheen and 9/11 Skepticism
( Right Click / Save as )
(27mb WMV)
(22mb Real Media)

Tonight marks the first instance where those that question 9/11 were given a fair shake at voicing their opinions. While little can be said in just 10 minutes of coverage, it was at the very least a reasonable discussion and an important milestone for the 9/11 truth community. 911truth.org's media coordinator Mike Berger did a great job with the short time he was allotted while the host A.J. Hammer allowed for a good live discussion and avoided the all-to-familiar Bill O'Reilly style of 'news'.

Despite the numerous questions surrounding 9/11 which have gone unmentioned by the mainstream media for the last 4+ years, and the growing number of respectable scholars, government officials, and family members demanding answers - this is the first time a major news station has covered 9/11 questions in any reasonable format, even if it was on a Hollywood celebrity show. If the mainstream media were to truly desire to cover 9/11 further I would hope in the future they might consider a longer format so that all of the news and facts they haven't bothered reporting over the last 4+ years might have a chance to finally be seen and heard. (Hey Showtime and HBO, are you listening?)

I urge all of those who support 9/11 being further discussed by CNN and their affiliates to contact them via their feedback form here. Be sure to reference the host A.J. Hammer, and the show 'Showbiz Tonight'.

Actor & Director Ed Asner Says Govt 911 Story A Fable And Fraud

2006-05-12T05:47:00.000-04:00

Highlights story of hijackers still alive and well

Paul Joseph Watson & Alex Jones/Prison Planet.com | March 31 2006

Award winning director, producer and actor Ed Asner is the latest high profile public figure to voice his support for Charlie Sheen's stance on 9/11 and share his own concerns about 9/11, the war in Iraq and the Neo-Cons.

Speaking to The Alex Jones Show Asner, best known for his Emmy-winning role as Lou Grant on The Mary Tyler Moore Show, echoed Charlie Sheen's sentiments in stating, "I became suspicious of 9/11 on the day it happened."

"I will always be that suspect of it and challenge it and challenge various points of it," said Asner.

Asner agreed that the official story of 9/11 and the Kean Commission investigation was a fable and a fraud.

"I do not buy it and I would challenge it, I know all of these points....the standing down," said Asner.

Asner questioned why no authority figures had been fired for their inability to prevent 9/11.

"Nobody in high office has ever paid the penalty for keeping us unprepared for 9/11, no one has paid the price and I cite the fact that Abu Ghraib was another typical example of the way this government works," said Asner.

"It's very easy to think of 9/11 to think of being yet another cause of being able to generate war in this country, " said Asner as he compared 9/11 to past examples of manufactured provocations such as the Gulf of Tonkin incident, the attack on the Maine and Pearl Harbor.

"Many of the purported hijackers are living persons elsewhere," said Asner highlighting a story reported by BBC and others that several of the so-called perpetrators of 9/11 visited their embassies in protest that they had been identified as terrorists.

Asked who gained from 9/11 Asner answered, "Certainly the military has, Halliburton, Brown and Root, Mr. Cheney's old outfit....the oil companies of course now with record highs, and the White House is of course involved with oil and the military and always has been."

Asner doubted that another terror attack needed to be staged in order to accomplish more of the same agenda.

"They don't have to have another attack, if they indeed launched the first one they have screwed up our country so badly they could just let us sink in upon ourselves."

Asner questioned why CNN chose to cancel his scheduled spot on Showbiz Tonight. After speaking to inside sources within CNN we were able to confirm that the order came down from a higher office to "kill" the story, despite the fact that the issue had generated the most interest Showbiz Tonight had ever encountered.

Asner is a true humanitarian and is an activist in the fields of missing US PoW's, depleted uranium, which Asner suggested was a deliberate population reduction method, and the fight to get the FDA to eliminate deadly thimerosal mercury additives to vaccines.

His public stance on 9/11 and his support of Charlie Sheen helps in the ongoing effort to encourage public figures with large media platforms to step forward and become prominent voices for the 9/11 truth movement.

CNN Fears 911 Truth Cancels Ed Asner's Appearance

2006-05-11T06:12:00.000-04:00

Infowars.com - 3-28-6

Infowars received an email from author and publisher Sander Hicks this afternoon indicating that the interview with Ed Asner scheduled for this evening on Showbiz Tonight has been cancelled. Hicks, a published author on the 9/11 cover-up as well as a Green Party senatorial candidate in New York was slated to appear with Asner on the program to discuss 9/11. Infowars confirmed with sources at CNN the segment was cancelled because another guest who had agreed to appear as an opposition voice to Hicks and Asner refused to participate the interview at the last moment. The CNN source further indicated that the opposition guest was none other than a former member of the Keene 9/11 whitewash Commission.

Further investigation and probing of several other CNN sources closely connected with the production of the Asner segment on Showbiz Tonight reported that high-level members of CNN management advised the producers of the show to "kill it. " This statement was clearly made to stifle any further coverage of 9/11 despite the admitedly huge ratings boost and response garnered from the recent coverage of Charlie Sheen's statements on 9/11.

"I guarantee that this member of the 9/11 Commission pulled out at the last moment because they think that by simply replying to Asner and Hicks and the comments of Charlie Sheen, he would be giving credence to their statements. This is a strategic move on their part to quash debate and avoid having to actually answer the hard questions about 9/11 which the 9/11 Commission failed to do. This stonewalling technique will not work forever - there are too many people waking up to their whitewash." - Alex Jones

Award winning actor, director, producer, and pioneering anti-Iraq war activist Ed Asner is scheduled to appear live on the CNN Headline News program Showbiz Tonight (6pm CST). Asner is reportedly going on to support Charlie Sheen's bold and brave stance calling for a real investigation of the events on September 11th, 2001 as well as to raise his own questions.

Also on Showbiz Tonight on March 27, actress Sharon Stone defended Sheen and his First Amendment right to speak out saying that he is brave and that it is important to confront authority.

Asner and Sheen are just two more of many celebrities who have already come forward to question the official story of what happened on 9/11.

Actor James Woods began questioning the official fable in the first weeks right after 9/11. X-Files and Lone Gunmen star Dean Haglund has already gone public on the Alex Jones Show (December 18, 2004) questioning the official story. Actor Ed Begley, Jr. hosted a 9/11 Truth Symposium in New York City several months ago.

And we have recently confirmed that one of the world's most popular and beloved musicians is awake to the truth about 9/11 and in the very near future may be going public.

Many more major stars who are considering going public have contacted us in recent days.

The dam is finally breaking. Delta Force Founder Eric Haney has spoken out in the press about the "War on Terrorism" being bogus and how there is no real threat to the United States. The 9/11 Truth Movemet has reached critical mass and is now exploding. The perpitrators of 9/11 have got to be concerned as more and more people across the globe wake up to the 9/11 hoax.

Venezuelan Government To Launch International 9/11 Investigation

2006-05-10T06:20:00.000-04:00

Truth crusaders Walter and Rodriguez to appear on Hugo Chavez's weekly TV broadcast

Paul Joseph Watson & Alex Jones/Prison Planet.com | March 31 2006

Billionaire philanthropist Jimmy Walter and WTC survivor William Rodriguez this week embarked on a groundbreaking trip to Caracas Venezuela in which they met with with the President of the Assembly and will soon meet with Venezuelan President himself Hugo Chavez in anticipation of an official Venezuelan government investigation into 9/11.

Rodriguez was the last survivor pulled from the rubble of the north tower of the WTC, and was responsible for all stairwells within the tower. Rodriguez represented family members of 9/11 victims and testified to the 9/11 Commission that bombs were in the north tower but his statements were completely omitted from the official record.

Jimmy Walter has been at the forefront of a world tour to raise awareness about 9/11 and has still yet to receive any response to his million dollar challenge in which he offers a $1 million reward for proof that the trade towers' steel structure was broken apart without explosives.

Rodriguez said that he was told an FBI agent had asked the hotel him and Walter were staying in turn over a list of names of residents. Upon hearing this, the National Assembly provided armed military protection for the entirety of the trip. In addition, Walters said that CIA agents were seen surveilling the beach on which he and Rodriguez had handed out free DVD's a day earlier.

The US government attempted to sabotage the trip by putting Rodriguez, who has been decorated at the White House itself, and Walter on a no fly list.

Rodriguez (pictured above) and Walter are educating top Venezuelan officials on the evidence that 9/11 was a self-inflicted wound carried out by the military-industrial complex. They have also appeared on every Venezuelan television and radio station both private and state owned and have given huge presentations to major universities.

Upon visiting, Rodriguez said that the President of the Assembly, Nicolas Maduro's home was brimming with books, videos and documents about the 9/11 cover-up. Maduro, Venezuela's top legislator, intoned that he was ready to create an international investigative committee, looking into the "international crime scene" that is 9/11 and that this would be structured via Hugo Chavez's government.

Rodriguez and Walter are also set to appear on Hugo Chavez's weekly broadcast 'Alo Presidente' - which is often subsequently the source of major international headlines. If there is no coverage of this event then we know for sure that a blackout order is in place.

Rodriguez and Walter offered their full support for Charlie Sheen's recent public stance on 9/11 and were heartened by his efforts. The potential of a government level inquiry endorsed by Hugo Chavez dovetails with Sheen's call for an independent investigation to be carried out by political foreign nationals.

Though the establishment media will no doubt seek to demonize Chavez as a militant with an axe to grind, this is an exciting development and the next step on the road to a genuine investigation that will seek to uncover the truth rather than hide skeletons and whitewash as was witnessed with the staged Kean committee.

Silverstein, Giuliani, WTC 7 and 20-20 Hindsight

2006-05-09T06:32:00.000-04:00

Fake Terror

by Jeremy Baker

If I was a gambling man, I’d bet the farm. WTC 7 was originally meant to collapse a few seconds after the North Tower hit the ground. Not seven hours later. I can’t think of a single reason that these guys would want to keep this World Trade Center complex building intact all day long.

9/11 skeptics, well versed in this esoteric field, know what I’m talking about. Something went very wrong that day. Some signal got crossed, maybe there was sabotage from within, we’ll probably never really know for sure. But if we accept, as most of these fine researchers, writers and activists do, that the Twin Towers and WTC 7 were finished off with preplanted explosives (the coup de grace in what was essentially an inside job), then it’s the only scenario that fits.

Think about it. How would it possibly benefit the perpetrators to wait hours, until late in the day, to finally push the button on Building 7? The whole world would be watching. That handy cloud of powdered debris that enveloped lower Manhattan would be long gone, your cover all but blown. Why draw out the spectacle any longer than necessary?

And it explains some things that have always needed explaining. For instance, we have several photographs of marginal, struggling fires burning on the 7th and 12th floors of Building 7, ones that, according to “official” reports, were supposed to have melted the building and brought it crashing down. But does that scenario really make any sense at all? Did it ever? Could it be, instead, that these inconsequential fires in Building 7 provide us with clues about what was really going on inside? Doesn’t the following scenario make more sense: when WTC 7 failed to collapse on schedule, the conspirators scrambled to bring the demolition system back on line. With their original plan in ruins, they finally made the decision to set fires in WTC 7 for the same reason they’d been set by the planes in the towers: to provide a plausible pretext for the building’s forthcoming demolition.

But the fires, set by desperate men in a tight spot, never quite caught on the way they should have. But why? If the original plan had been (for some inexplicable reason) to keep WTC 7 intact all day long and start fires in the afternoon that could be blamed for the collapse of the building, wouldn’t they have lit up WTC 7 like a roman candle to enhance the effect? We know that these guys can build a serious fire when they apply themselves. We have the photos of WTC 5 and 6 burning like blast furnaces to prove it. But the well planned and executed arson in these buildings required time and resources that the guys in Building 7, working on the sly, just weren’t able to produce on such short notice, especially when the building was surrounded by chaos, emergency workers and a moonscape of destruction. So they threw together what fires they could using whatever they had on hand and then beat feet for Fleet Street. The resulting blazes, barely discernable from without, took hours to grow to the size necessary to sustain the illusion (barely) that, like the Twin Towers, WTC 7 just couldn’t stand the heat. And then, late in the day and with lower Manhattan in lockdown, the Keystone Konspirators finally pulled the plug on 7 at 5:25 PM.

This revealing fact, that fires in Building 7 weren’t even called in until late in the day (approx. 3 PM), is a glaring 9/11 anomaly because of how harshly it conflicts with “official” reports that raging fires were ignited by debris from Tower One’s collapse that morning. But what kind of “raging” fire takes hours to build to even a modest size before finally getting “called in” late in the day?

Officials have offered speculations on WTC 7's (and the towers) unprecedented vulnerability to fire but nothing that’s ever held water. And this story about the 40,000 gallons of diesel fuel catching on fire and burning down the house, what nonsense. If that gas tank became involved there wouldn’t have been a fire, there would have been an explosion (a big one), and then a fire, a huge fire. And it’s for this reason that the perps would never have torched the diesel tank to set their little dummy blaze. That kind of inferno would damage explosive systems and cause all kinds of problems. Remember, their goal was the total destruction of the entire structure as planned, not an unwieldy blaze within. But these guys knew better and made sure to set their fires well above the huge diesel tank on ground level.

WTC 7 still on its feet hours after the attacks was problematic in other ways. The “official” story has always been that the North Tower’s plummeting debris impacted WTC 7 (which was one full city block from the North Tower with WTC 6 standing in between) and ignited a dynamic inferno that caused the 47 story, steel framed structure to suddenly drop like a stone hours later, a phenomenon unprecedented in the history of firefighting and one that occurred not once but three times on September 11th. But Building 7's longevity undoubtedly increased the likelihood of people noticing and possibly photographing the obvious lack of damage to Building 7 from the collapse of Tower One. Isn’t it extremely suspicious that absolutely no photographs of WTC 7's “damaged” face have ever been released to the public? The building was standing there all day long. Isn’t it more likely that when WTC 7 didn’t go down on schedule, Plan B became containment, much like it had been at the Pentagon (and Oklahoma city for that matter). What few photogs, film crews or onlookers that penetrated ground zero would have their materials confiscated for “security purposes.”

But there were also conflicting reports about a man said to have been the only person to die in the collapse of WTC 7. The US House of Representatives website posted a tribute to Secret Service Special Officer Craig Miller whose body was found in the rubble of Building 7. According to this posting, Officer Miller apparently died during the “rescue effort” that day. After the Towers were hit, Building 7 (the Manhattan HQ of the Secret Service) was quickly evacuated and everyone survived, all except this lone SS guy. Not a firefighter. Not a rescue worker or a cop. Other accounts record no fatalities whatsoever in 7. Why the confusion? There was either a body in the rubble or there wasn’t. Was an autopsy done on this man?

And who on earth was this SS guy rescuing? WTC 7 had been evacuated. Are Secret Service officers mandated to rescue people from (empty) burning buildings? The fires in WTC 7 were burning on the floors just above and below Secret Service offices on the 9th and 10th floors. Could this man have played a role in the days events that got him into trouble? Could he have been an amateur arsonist who got too close to his fire? The story of Larry Silverstein claiming to have ‘pulled’ WTC 7 is well known among 9/11 researchers. The only explanation that’s ever been offered in Silverstein’s defense was that he meant ‘pull’ the firefighters out of the “dangerously burning” building. But if that were true, why didn’t this Secret Service guy get the message? But then no nostalgic look back on WTC 7 (and the Trade Center in general) is complete without reacquainting ourselves with the inscrutable Manhattan real estate mogul Larry Silverstein. Sooner or later, history is going to have to decide how it remembers this guy. With all we’ve learned about September 11th there are still only a handful of actual, individual suspects. I’d like to nominate Mr. Silverstein to this elite fraternity.

World Trade Center 7, or the Solomon Brothers Building, was owned by Silverstein Properties and had been the headquarters of his development company, Westfield America, for years. But it also housed Rudy Giuliani’s Office of Emergency Management (OEM), a reinforced, Arab proof control center oddly located at the number one terrorist target in the country (a baffling choice of locations considering that the WTC had already been attacked once in 1993). This incomprehensible (and very “unheroic”) decision proved its absurdity on 9/11 when, in the midst of an actual emergency, Giuliani was unable to access his control center for obvious reasons.

WTC 7 also hosted offices of the DoD, the IRS and the SEC, as well as a handful of private financial institutions. In addition, 7 was the storage center for millions of files on active cases involving organized crime, international drug dealing, money laundering and terrorism, all of which have demonstrable links to US intelligence. So a New York Times report that Building 7 was also the secret location of the largest domestic CIA station outside of the District of Columbia probably shouldn’t come as a surprise. The addition of “the agency” to this already scintillating list of tenants would appear to make WTC 7 a kind of nexus for what many researchers consider to be key entities in this sprawling conspiracy. But the fact that Larry Silverstein was the CIA’s secret NYC landlord for years is a point I made sure to jot down too.

Some researchers have made the shocking claim that the OEM was just a cover for its real purpose, the conspirators attack operations center (now that would explain the poor choice of locations). This recently armored facility, high on the 23rd floor, had a bird’s eye view of the unfolding spectacle, the perfect vantage point from which to guide the planes to their targets and fine tune the demolition strategy for the Twin Towers (when to detonate, which floors to blast first, etc.). But once you’ve cooly orchestrated the collapse of the safely distant South Tower (murdering hundreds of fleeing office workers and firefighters) and programmed the explosives in the North Tower, doesn’t it then make sense to set the timers, vacate the building, say a Hail Mary and then watch the North Tower and WTC 7 collapse at the same time, neatly wrapping up the mornings work? Whatever Giuliani’s control center had been used for, the evidence would be obliterated, along with years of CIA secrets, government files and the ghosts of WTC 7.

If this dizzying, Danté-esque spectacle is, in fact, a reality and does, amazingly, feature “America’s Mayor” in a leading role, what do we know about Giuliani’s movements at the time? Officially, he was at a makeshift command post at 75 Barclay Street until just before the collapses when he claims that he and his staff were evacuated from the building. He later told Peter Jennings, “We were told that the WTC was gonna collapse,” a prophetic remark considering the fact that no steel framed highrise had ever collapsed due to fire before. But WTC 7 is on Barclay Street, just at the evacuation perimeter, proving that Giuliani was indeed in the area at the time. But he was evacuating the area, not setting up shop in WTC 7 for a hard day of directing traffic from above.

This idea, that the mayor’s command bunker was meant to be used throughout the day before being demolished, I just don’t see it. The mayor of New York City (or whomever), orchestrating the aftermath of 9/11 in the upper floors of a burning building? And what would he (they) be doing up there? Seems to me that the day’s to-do list had already been checked off. And for the life of me, I just can’t imagine that the original plan would ever have included the re-entry of any of the structures after the devastation that occurred earlier.

There is, in addition, a compelling connection to be made between the mayor’s OEM and the fires in WTC 7. The lower of the two fires in WTC 7 was on floor 7, the location of the OEM’s emergency generators. If the arsonists were indeed OEM men, they would not only have had access to this floor, they would also have had a ready supply of accellerant (i.e. gasoline) at their disposal (the upper fire was on one of 3 floors used by the SEC).

So the mayor (and others) may have had access to his command bunker after all, but just long enough for it to serve its purposes that morning. And, as for being told that “the WTC was gonna collapse,” well, if you already knew this for a fact because you were gonna make it collapse, it’s as good an excuse as any to cover a timely exit.

As 9/11 researchers are well aware, Larry Silverstein took over control of the World Trade Center just a few weeks before the attacks of 9/11. After ramping up the insurance on the complex (an act of uncanny foresight considering what was to come) he then set to work replacing security personnel in a building complex that hadn’t changed hands in thirty years and had never before been privately controlled. His 2001 sweetheart deal with the Port Authority and the City of New York was for a 99 year lease worth much more than the $3.2 billion he and his firm had contracted for. And later, when he tried to sue the insurance companies claiming that two planes means two terrorist attacks, therefore twice the settlement (bringing the total, in Silverstein’s mind, to $7.2 billion), the courts cried foul and sent Larry packing (after the attacks, one WTC insurer sued Silverstein for apparently paying lobbyists to try to limit his liability to the victims families). Funny, I don’t remember the headline; “Manhattan Tycoon Exploits National Tragedy for Personal Gain” appearing anywhere after 9/11.

But the real specter haunting Larry Silverstein involves a growing body of evidence that Zionist extremists may’ve had a hand in the attacks of 9/11. There are some who believe that Mossad (Israeli intelligence) fingerprints are all over the attacks, and I’m not so sure I disagree. Israel has a well documented history of framing Arabs for attacks on Americans, a fact that never seemed to make its way into the mainstream mind in the months after September 11th. And the Zionist fanatics who’ve pulled off this kind of “op” in the past have a history of tapping the diaspora for talent. And Larry Silverstein is just their kind of guy.

Ex-president of the United Jewish Appeal (the largest Israeli fundraiser in the US) and a highly connected supporter of Israel, Silverstein has strong ties to the Israeli political and business establishments. His colleague, another UJA leader, Lewis Eisenberg — former chairman of the Port Authority, finance chairman for the RNC and former VP of AIPAC (American/Israeli PAC) — negotiated the deal that put the WTC in Silverstein’s control. Add to this the many examples of Israeli foreknowledge of and proximity to the attacks and the plot begins to thicken considerably.

There are a host of disturbing ties between Israeli hardliners and September 11th (too many to list in detail here) but none more compelling than the basic issue of motive. It simply cannot be argued that no single player stood to gain more from the attacks (or, more accurately, from the response to the attacks) than the Zionist hardliners who’ve been envisioning a Mideast under their control for decades. For many years before 9/11, Paul Wolfowitz, Richard Perle, William Kristol and other powerful, highly placed American Zionists had advocated for increasingly aggressive US military actions towards a host of Muslim states. All that was needed to get the ball rolling was the Pearl Harbor-like event mentioned so often in their pre-9/11 literature. And it’s working. Our bludgeoning of Afghanistan and Iraq represent bold steps towards the fulfillment of the sulphurous neo-con agenda.

Given the fact that Silverstein’s name pops up in many dark corners of the 9/11 shadow play, is it really unfair to view him as a “person of interest” in the horrendous crime and coverup of September 11th? And if he was a player in a subterfuge of this magnitude, is it really such a stretch to imagine that he might have been “in the room” when the pseudo-hijackings were being planned? And if he was, might he have suggested tweaking the plan just a little to include a detour by Flight 175 south? Knowing that the Air Force would be AWOL that morning, the plane’s scenic side trip would surely be, at worse, a minor adjustment — but with major implications. This one, small alteration to the aircraft’s flight plan would not only result in the planes hitting from opposite directions, it would also increase the length of time between the first and second hits. And these two points combined might go a long way to supporting Silverstein’s claim of two separate terrorist events.

It’s a matter of record. Flight 175 (the second plane to strike the WTC) came barreling out of the north, flew south far past Manhattan before circling back towards the city, a peculiar deviation that took the plane a good fifteen minutes or so out of its way. This odd, time wasting and risky maneuver has never been explained. Certainly the “hijackers” wouldn’t have thought it was a good idea. Wouldn’t they want to secure the objective ASAP before the fighter jets showed up? It just doesn’t compute. But there’s one man who might’ve done very well by this short trip south if only his fortunes had unfolded according to plan in the courtroom. And all Silverstein had to do was give Dov Zakheim a call.

With close ties to the Israeli government and reported duel Israeli/American citizenship, Bush’s Texas buddy and undersecretary of state, Dov Zakheim, boasts a long list of impressive credentials. Ex-DoD CFO (chief financial officer), Zakheim joined the Pentagon staff in May, 2001, shortly before the attacks and at a time when the Pentagon couldn’t account for $3 trillion in spending. A longtime DoD consultant and neo-con insider, he’s also a senior figure at the Heritage Foundation, the Center for International and Strategic Studies and the Center for Security Policy — not to mention the Council on Foreign Relations and the PNAC. But before his Pentagon gig, he was also VP of Systems Planning Corporation and CEO of one of its subsidiaries. SPC is a high-tech outfit that specializes in, among other things, the remote control commandeering of aircraft and the technical support required for live flight military exercises.

This bizarre but entirely viable theory, that some or all of the “hijacked” passenger jets on 9/11 had been remotely commandeered and guided to their targets, has been (despite its Buck Rogers kind of aspect) a key speculation among the very best 9/11 researchers. This technology has been with us for decades and Zakheim’s SPC specializes in it. SPC’s Flight Termination System is a fully programmable tool to retrieve aircraft remotely. But this technology is also a key element in the kind of live flight war games the military was conveniently conducting on 9/11. These cold war drills in Northern Canada and Alaska drew interceptors away fron the Northeast US and, using false radar blips, effectively paralyzed defenders who might otherwise have reached their targets. But it also eliminated the need for a peculiar and very risky general “stand down” order from Pentagon brass during the attacks, a command that would create disbelief and suspicion among hundreds of patriotic military people.

A couple of years ago, PBS aired a program entitled “America Rebuilds,” a documentary detailing the cleanup effort at ground zero. The comments Larry Silverstein made in an interview in this program have become a “point of interest” among 9/11 researchers and I’ve enjoyed watching this story steadily gain a following. Specifically, he described being on the phone with the FDNY commander and coming to the conclusion that there had “been such terrible loss of life maybe the smartest thing to do is, is ‘pull’ it,” (referring to WTC 7). Then, according to Silverstein, “they made that decision to ‘pull’ and we watched the building collapse” (the same documentary quotes a demo worker: “well, we’re getting ready to ‘pull’ building 6" moments before demolishing its burnt out carcass, a comment that would appear to support the meaning of the industry term ‘pull’).

Many have asked how he could possibly have been so careless as to make such an admission publicly. But what if circumstances compelled him to do so? What if his comments were a discrete response to growing suspicions surrounding the botched attempt to ‘pull’ WTC 7 earlier in the day? The powers-that-be have brazenly used PBS programming to spin other aspects of 9/11. The NOVA program that espoused the theory of the “pancaking” of the Twin Tower’s floors is infamous in the 9/11 skeptics community. PBS programs relating to 9/11 typically feature “experts” who unanimously support the party line. I remember one such “authority” solemnly offering his professional opinion that the paper we saw falling like confetti as the WTC burned undoubtedly contributed to the raging fires within and played a significant role in the collapse of the towers!

With WTC 7's obvious demolition caught on film from at least three excellent perspectives, it’s an understatement to say that Silverstein and his cohorts had a big problem on their hands. Could it be that his comments about ‘pulling’ WTC 7 were a carefully choreographed “hang out” of the issue? Using Karl Rove-like sleight of hand, he offers a vague accounting of the anomaly delivered to us on an almost subconscious level. I’ve watched that video clip hundreds of times and to this day I hear only one thing: that he and his people made the decision to demolish WTC 7 citing the “terrible loss of life” suffered earlier that day. His body language, his wording, his tone, all seem to point to this one terrible conclusion. Paradoxically, his comments may have been intended to steer us in the exact opposite direction: that, despite how it may have appeared, heroes in high places stepped up and made the tough choices.

The expression ‘pull’ relates to the word ‘demolition’ the same way that the expression ‘wind up’ relates to the word ‘pitch.’ In both cases they represent one event occurring in two stages. In this sense, Silverstein’s use of the word ‘pull’ to mean ‘demolition’ seems clear and may also have served to cover the sudden and suspicious evacuation of rescue personnel from the disaster zone shortly before WTC 7's bizarre suicide — a necessity when you’re about to demolish a building. A photographer on the scene described the evacuation of firefighters as they “prepared for the collapse of Building 7...I was 150 yards away when I saw the firefighters raising the flag.” Excuse me? Steel framed highrises don’t collapse! Firemen, knowing this to be true, typically approach steelframed buildings (just like they did the towers that morning), especially if the structures are only marginally involved. Isn’t it highly suspicious that the firefighters seemingly just gave up on this exceedingly important and valuable government building that had only modest fires burning within? Doesn’t this fact support the theory that WTC 7 was essentially a crime scene that needed to be destroyed?

This man’s statement (which, by the way, proves that photographers weren’t barred from the scene and could very well have produced images of WTC 7's “debris damage”) describes the behavior of workers who were evacuating a building that was about to be demolished, not trained emergency workers worried about something that never happens. Silverstein’s remarks replace this problematic scenario with the tall tale of wise (and clairvoyant) public servants acting in the nick of time to save lives (not scatter potential witnesses). Either way Mr. Silverstein has some explaining to do.

The plan to obscure WTC 7's implosion with the billowing dust cloud created by the collapse of Tower One is too good an idea for these guys not to have considered. And it would have worked like a charm. The flattened 32 story Marriott Vista hotel (or WTC 3), nestled snugly between the towers, is long forgotten in a world that barely remembers the life and times of Building 7. If WTC 7 being ‘pulled’ when it was mostly hidden from view (and as chaos reigned on the streets below) wasn’t the original plan, it should’ve been. And considering all the hubbub created by its remaining intact, it makes sense that this was indeed the original idea.

The unintended survival of WTC 7, shortlived though it was, has proven itself to be a gift from providence to the good people of the world on a day when it seemed as though providence had abandoned us. Those of us who know that 9/11 was conceived, written and directed by, well, the usual suspects, find, in Building 7 and it’s dark pedigree, the Achilles heel in the “official” fairy tale sold us in the wake of the most vile deception history has ever recorded. Let’s hope we make the most of this gift.

If you can judge the substance of a new paradigm by how thoroughly it displaces an old one, than maybe we’re onto something here. Since this possibility occurred to me, I simply cannot remember the WTC disaster the way I used to; that for some inexplicable reason Building 7 just lingered for hours after the attacks before they finally ‘pulled’ it. And after years of sifting through this material and scrutinizing 9/11, I will never again see WTC 7 as anything other than what it surely was. A dud. An epic, 47 story, steel-belted dud that, later that day, blew up in Larry Silverstein’s hand.

Case For WTC Tower Demolition Sealed By David Ray Griffin

Theologian Says Controlled Demolition is Now a Fact, Not a Theory

From Kevin Barrett

Muslim-Christian-Jewish Alliance For 911
10-21-5

In two speeches to overflow crowds in New York last weekend, notable theologian David Ray Griffin argued that recently revealed evidence seals the case that the Twin Towers and WTC-7 were destroyed by controlled demolition with explosives. Despite the many enduring mysteries of the 9/11 attacks, Dr. Griffin concluded, "It is already possible to know, beyond a reasonable doubt, one very important thing: the destruction of the World Trade Center was an inside job, orchestrated by terrorists within our own government."

On Oct. 15th and 16th, New Yorkers filled two venues to hear the prominent theologian and author of two books on 9/11 give a presentation entitled "The Destruction of the Trade Towers: A Christian Theologian Speaks Out." Dr. Griffin has continued to blaze a trail of courage, leading where most media and elected officials have feared to tread. His presentation went straight to the core of one of the most powerful indictments of the official story, the collapse of the towers and WTC 7.

Dr. Griffin included excerpts from the firemenís tapes which were recently released as a result of a prolonged court battle led by victimís families represented by attorney Norman Siegel and reported in the NY Times. He also included statements by many witnesses. These sources gave ample testimony giving evidence of explosions going off in the buildings. A 12 minute film was shown for the audiences, who saw for themselves the undeniable evidence for controlled demolition.

Dr. Griffin listed ten characteristics of the collapses which all indicate that the buildings did not fall due to being struck by planes or the ensuing fires. He explained the buildings fell suddenly without any indication of collapse. They fell straight into their own footprint at free-fall speed, meeting virtually no resistance as they fell--a physical impossibility unless all vertical support was being progressively removed by explosives severing the core columns.

The towers were built to withstand the impact of a Boeing 707 and 160 mile per hour winds, and nothing about the plane crashes or ensuing fires gave any indication of causing the kind of damage that would be necessary to trigger even a partial or progressive collapse, much less the shredding of the buildings into dust and fragments that could drop at free-fall speed.

The massive core columns--the most significant structural feature of the buildings, whose very existence is denied in the official 9/11 Commission Report--were severed into uniform 30 foot sections, just right for the 30-foot trucks used to remove them quickly before a real investigation could transpire.

There was a volcanic-like dust cloud from the concrete being pulverized, and no physical mechanism other than explosives can begin to explain how so much of the buildings' concrete was rendered into extremely fine dust. The debris was ejected horizontally several hundred feet in huge fan shaped plumes stretching in all directions, with telltale "squibs" following the path of the explosives downward.

These are all facts that have been avoided by mainstream and even most of the alternative media. Again, these are characteristics of the kind of controlled demolitions that news people and firefighters were describing on the morning of 9/11. Those multiple first-person descriptions of controlled demolition were hidden away for almost four years by the City of New York until a lawsuit finally forced the city to release them. Dr. Griffin's study of these accounts has led him beyond his earlier questioning of the official story of the collapses, to his above-quoted conclusion: The destruction of the three WTC buildings with explosives by US government terrorists is no longer a hypothesis, but a fact that has been proved beyond a reasonable doubt.

It ís important to note that Dr. Griffin is one of many prominent intellectuals--including the likes of Gore Vidal, Howard Zinn, Peter Dale Scott, Richard Falk, Paul Craig Roberts, Morgan Reynolds and Peter Phillips--who have seen through the major discrepancies of the official explanation of 9/11 and have risen to challenge it. These brave individuals represent the tip of an ever-growing iceberg of discreet 9/11 skeptics. Indeed, 9/11 skepticism appears to be almost universal among intellectuals who have examined the evidence, since there has not yet been a single serious attempt to refute the case developed by Dr. Griffin and such like-minded thinkers as Nafeez Ahmed and Mike Ruppert. As for the general public, polls have shown that a strong majority of Canadians (63%, Toronto Star, May '04) and half of New Yorkers (Zogby, August 2004) agree that top US leaders conspired to murder nearly 3,000 Americans on 9/11/01.

How, then, can the mainstream US media continue to ignore the story of the century? Perhaps the best answer was given by Dr. Griffin himself in the conclusion of his talk, and is worth quoting at length:

"The evidence for this conclusion (that 9/11 was an inside job) has thus far been largely ignored by the mainstream press, perhaps under the guise of obeying President Bushís advice not to tolerate "outrageous conspiracy theories." We have seen, however, that it is the Bush administrationís conspiracy theory that is the outrageous one, because it is violently contradicted by numerous facts, including some basic laws of physics.

"There is, of course, another reason why the mainstream press has not pointed out these contradictions. As a recent letter to the Los Angeles Times said:

"'The number of contradictions in the official version of . . . 9/11 is so overwhelming that . . . it simply cannot be believed. Yet . . . the official version cannot be abandoned because the implication of rejecting it is far too disturbing: that we are subject to a government conspiracy of "X-Files" proportions and insidiousness.'

"The implications are indeed disturbing. Many people who know or at least suspect the truth about 9/11 probably believe that revealing it would be so disturbing to the American psyche, the American form of government, and global stability that it is better to pretend to believe the official version. I would suggest, however, that any merit this argument may have had earlier has been overcome by more recent events and realizations. Far more devastating to the American psyche, the American form of government, and the world as a whole will be the continued rule of those who brought us 9/11, because the values reflected in that horrendous event have been reflected in the Bush administrationís lies to justify the attack on Iraq, its disregard for environmental science and the Bill of Rights, its criminal negligence both before and after Katrina, and now its apparent plan not only to weaponize space but also to authorize the use of nuclear weapons in a preemptive strike.

"In light of this situation and the facts discussed in this lecture---as well as dozens of more problems in the official account of 9/11 discussed elsewhere---I call on the New York Times to take the lead in finally exposing to the American people and the world the truth about 9/11. Taking the lead on such a story will, of course, involve enormous risks. But if there is any news organization with the power, the prestige, and the credibility to break this story, it is the Times. It performed yeoman service in getting the 9/11 oral histories released. But now the welfare of our republic and perhaps even the survival of our civilization depend on getting the truth about 9/11 exposed. I am calling on the Times to rise to the occasion.

Dr. Griffinís speech given at the University of Wisconsin earlier this year, entitled "9/11 and the American Empire," was broadcast twice on C-SPAN. In late September Dr. Griffin was asked to give expert testimony at hearings sponsored by Cynthia McKinney and the Congressional Black Caucus investigating the 9/11 Commission Report. He is currently Professor Emeritus at Claremont College in California.

Former Head Of Star Wars Program Says: Cheney Main 9/11 Suspect

2006-05-09T06:27:00.000-04:00

Official version of events a conspiracy theory, says drills were cover for attacks

Paul Joseph Watson & Alex Jones/Prison Planet.com | April 4 2006

The former head of the Star Wars missile defense program under Presidents Ford and Carter has gone public to say that the official version of 9/11 is a conspiracy theory and his main suspect for the architect of the attack is Vice President Dick Cheney.

Dr. Robert M. Bowman, Lt. Col., USAF, ret. flew 101 combat missions in Vietnam. He is the recipient of the Eisenhower Medal, the George F. Kennan Peace Prize, the President’s Medal of Veterans for Peace, the Society of Military Engineers Gold Medal (twice), six Air Medals, and dozens of other awards and honors. His Ph.D. is in Aeronautics and Nuclear Engineering from Caltech. He chaired 8 major international conferences, and is one of the country’s foremost experts on National Security.

Bowman worked secretly for the US government on the Star Wars project and was the first to coin the very term in a 1977 secret memo. After Bowman realized that the program was only ever intended to be used as an aggressive and not defensive tool, as part of a plan to initiate a nuclear war with the Soviets, he left the program and campaigned against it.

In an interview with The Alex Jones Show aired nationally on the GCN Radio Network, Bowman (pictured below) stated that at the bare minimum if Osama bin Laden and Al-Qaeda were involved in 9/11 then the government stood down and allowed the attacks to happen. He said it is plausible that the entire chain of military command were unaware of what was taking place and were used as tools by the people pulling the strings behind the attack.

Bowman outlined how the drills on the morning of 9/11 that simulated planes crashing into buildings on the east coast were used as a cover to dupe unwitting air defense personnel into not responding quickly enough to stop the attack.

"The exercises that went on that morning simulating the exact kind of thing that was happening so confused the people in the FAA and NORAD....that they didn't they didn't know what was real and what was part of the exercise," said Bowman

"I think the people who planned and carried out those exercises, they're the ones that should be the object of investigation."

Asked if he could name a prime suspect who was the likely architect behind the attacks, Bowman stated, "If I had to narrow it down to one person....I think my prime suspect would be Dick Cheney."

Bowman said that privately his military fighter pilot peers and colleagues did not disagree with his sentiments about the real story behind 9/11.

Bowman agreed that the US was in danger of slipping into a dictatorship and stated, "I think there's been nothing closer to fascism than what we've seen lately from this government."

Bowman slammed the Patriot Act as having, "Done more to destroy the rights of Americans than all of our enemies combined."

Bowman trashed the 9/11 Commission as a politically motivated cover-up with abounding conflicts of interest, charging, "The 9/11 Commission omitted anything that might be the least bit suspicious or embarrassing or in any way detract from the official conspiracy so it was a total whitewash."

"There needs to be a true investigation, not the kind of sham investigations we have had with the 9/11 omission and all the rest of that junk," said Bowman.

Asked if the perpetrators of 9/11 were preparing to stage another false-flag attack to reinvigorate their agenda Bowman agreed that, "I can see that and I hope they can't pull it off, I hope they are prevented from pulling it off but I know darn good and well they'd like to have another one."

A mainstay of the attack pieces against Charlie Sheen have been that he is not credible enough to speak on the topic of 9/11. These charges are ridiculed by the fact that Sheen is an expert on 9/11 who spends hours a day meticulously researching the topic, something that the attack dogs have failed to do, aiming their comments solely at Sheen's personal life and ignoring his invitation to challenge him on the facts.

In addition, from the very start we have put forth eminently credible individuals only for them to be ignored by the establishment media. Physics Professors, former White House advisors and CIA analysts, the father of Reaganomics, German Defense Ministers and Bush's former Secretary of the Treasury, have all gone public on 9/11 but have been uniformly ignored by the majority of the establishment press.

Will Robert Bowman also be blackballed as the mainstream continue to misrepresent the 9/11 truth movement as an occupation of the fringe minority?

Bowman is currently running for Congress in Florida's 15th District.

The official story about 911 is that burning airplane fuel weakened the steel buildings at the World Trade Center, causing them to collapse. But if that is true, how can one explain the strange damage inflicted upon autos as far away as FDR drive (7 blocks from the WTC )?
