Really rough day for green-card soldiers, mercenaries and US social refuse in Iraq (unconfirmed):

"Just reported from Alwasatonline reporter in Basra, Mahdi Army managed to arrest 17 American soldiers, and seizes 7 hammer military vehicles, because of these developments the Iraqi government offered to negotiates with MA but Muqtada Al-Sadr refused any negotiations, also 250 Iraqi soldiers gave themselves up to Mahdi Army."

Can Lind be serious when he says that "...lots of people in Washington are pondering possible consequences of an air and missile assault on Iran, but few if any have thought about this one", refering to Iran cutting off US supplies from Kuwait and throwing roughly 120.000 US infantry in a hopeless cauldrum in and around Bagdad?

Can it really be that US generals see no more the line between their psyops and their capabilities?

Gravatar Israel's War on Islam (aka The GWOT) has crossed the line between bizarre and macabre when a Human Rights organisation is told by the government to instruct its employees to steal internet time and post anonymous remarks to a blog which deliberately breach its own guidelines in order to frame the blogger.

Gravatar good article on CIA & Tibet:
http://www.globalresearch.ca/ind...ext=va& aid=8442


Gravatar Fetzer has other things to say apart from space beams. He came to 9/11 skepticism late, not much he says is all that original, but he does often say it well. If on 15 April he keeps his trap shut he can't antagonise any people. Even if Ron Paul is less vocal about 9/11 than some factions would hope, he does have support from lots of 9/11 skeptics. Fetzer can speak silently for them all by his presence alone. We'll see how this pans out.

Lind seems to have been recruited to the 'attack Iran' fear-mongering brigade. It's nonsense for him to say that sensible USAians are against a US attack on Iran, and then insist that the military make detailed plans for a rapid and reliable withdrawal from Iraq in the event of retaliation by Iran.

It's nonsense because Iran will not instigate a war with the US so there'll be no conflict with Iran unless America starts it. And it's nonsense because, in spite of what Bush and Petraeus say, Iran is clearly not providing significant military assistance to the anti-US elements in Iraq because the Iranians are/would be DELIGHTED with the Dumb Satan's decision to slowly bleed itself to death in Iraq. I also have my doubts that the Iranians would be stupid enough to trundle their armour into Iraq. Tanks are yesterday's weapons and no match for aircraft. They're really only useful against lightly armed opposition (like Palestinians).

In any case, even Lind himself admits he's guessing about the way US vs Iran hostilities would unfold. The only people who really know are the Iranians and you can bet your bottom euro that they've got a lot more ideas than the Americans and are far less likely to be deceiving themselves about how easy, or how much fun, it would be.


Gravatar okay Fetzer might have taken a turn for the worse, but in times past fetzer gave good plainspeaking straightforward 9/11 talks to such venues at the washington press club.

http://www.total411.info/2007/01...t- national.html


Gravatar what a pity the audio file link is dead. mind you, I do not agree with your description of his ridiculous theories, which all have the same destructive purpose - and effect - as his 'discovery' that the Zapruder film of the JFK assassination had been FALSIFIED FRAME BY FRAME


Gravatar on the other hand, the 'mainstream' of the 911 'movement' have become not exactly bureaucratic but the equivalent, sclerotic, mentally:
http://truthaction.org/?q=node/186
that audio file is extremely long - two hours - because 'cosmos' insists on regurgitating endless hype.


Gravatar why do you find ridiculous fetzer's claim that the zapruder film had been altered FRAME BY FRAME?

the film does not show the limo slowing down when JFK received the fatal headshot yet contemporary accounts say that it did. That fact is the WTC7 of the jfk official story. The film was stored in the vaults (allegedly) of Life Magazine, who already had perjured themselves over the fake LHO photos. It was handed over to Jim Garrison years later; time enough to doctor whatever they wanted. Hollywood had tons of techniques in the old analog days; FBI didn't have to invent any.

Have you read fetzer's books on the topic? I haven't, only heard him. pity about that audio link, it was a damn good talk.


Gravatar


Gravatar ("") meaning what?

that fetzer spoke to the national press club and they were lapping it up, means that the press are well aware of the 9/11 hoax in all its horrible insincerity or should that be insanity. It's no stretch of the imagination that fetzer's talk might have inspired the italian & japanese parliaments to say the same things out loud to each other.

smekhovo | 03.26.08 - 4:56 am |

But smekh, that would leave us without any jews, a land of the hopelessly honest, unable to cope with modern politics!


Gravatar I shall find the audio and decide for myself - I am sick of arguments on here which are not based on knowledge of the object supposedly under discussion.

But my objection to Fetzer's Zapruder theory are three:

(1) As with his 911 theory, this requires the forgers to make intentionally bad forgeries so that he can prove them to be so. Why did they bother?

(2) There is no critical study online to monitor ANY of the claims made by Fetzer - or his moon landing photos attacking friend - to confirm that the photos presented by them are indeed the photos as found in the public archives and not modified or intentionally mid reproduced by them themselves as visual straw man arguments.

(3) At no point has he shown the slightest concern for accuracy in his own statements - I bet you anything he claims repeatedly in this Press Club talk that Judy Wood is the most highly qualified scientist in the relevant fields in the country.


Gravatar Not that the 'mainstream' are all that much better - the closest thing to a comprehensive archive of online evidence that there really were planes that day is this site:
http://911disinformation.com
and it isn't terribly convincing - they claim in that audio I put the link for earlier that they find it really hard to do any work debunking 'no-planes' theorists because they consider the task demeaning.


Gravatar Philip Weiss on the legal troubles of Jeffrey Epstein, the man with the egg-shaped or pear-shaped penis:
http://nymag.com/news/features/41826/


Gravatar The other day we were reading a translation of Josephus. It's never enough for the Jews, nothing ever is, and this is the key to their lies. They always must insert some completely believable detail, take things to an impossible degree, because whether the adjective is positive or negative Jews simply must have it in its most extreme form (consider the perfectly insane "holocaust denial cartoon contest" in which they spontaneously desired to prove that they were better than anyone else in this!). The story said that two parties were fighting eachother, but the thing Josephus insists on claiming and which we begin to doubt, is that the non-Jewish party was "ripping" Jews open while they were still alive to look for treasure inside them. Which is not only insane, but the same kind of insanity that gets offered thousands of years on. In one of the many unrelated books all titled "The New Anti-Semitism," you can read actual examples of ADL complaints. They are preposterous stories from anonymous sources who might not exist and who of course cannot give too much detail so as to protect their anonymity.


Gravatar no fetzer didn't mention wood at least not much though i think he said she was in the audience. his talk was very standard -- he was not a no-planer when he gave it in jan 07.


Gravatar one of the comments struck me:

What does this have to do with 'the rich'. A lot of Black men. hispanic men, all kinds of men and don't let women off the hook. More class hatred. This type of hatred is hurting us all.

I think this may have been prompted by this brilliant quote in the article :

“Fundamentally,” Wolff says, “it’s about math. That on a macro level it inevitably happens that the rich get richer. And then at some level the rich get richer on a geometric basis. Jeffrey’s point is that this whole issue is—it’s just mathematics at this point. This is the nature of a successful economy. The more successful the economy is, and that would be the goal of everybody, a successful economy, the greater the discrepancy actually is.”


Gravatar I don't think the Fetzer National Press Club audio is out there, but it may be in the revere radio archives.

In MARCH 2005, Fetzer posted this:

Fetzer characterizes Dr. Wood, who has degrees in civil engineering, engineering mechanics, and materials engineering science, as the leading expert on technical aspects of the destruction of the World Trade Center. “There are experts in many areas of science and of engineering studying 9/11,” he explained, “but she has degrees that are centrally focused on critical areas in which competence is required to begin to understand what happened on 9/11. No one else in the 9/11 community comes close to her level of expertise.”

Gravatar from william lind at antiwar:

March 26, 2008
Operation Cassandra
"Adm. Fallon's (forced?) resignation was the last warning we are likely to get of an attack on Iran. It does not mean an attack is certain, but the U.S. could not attack Iran so long as he was the Centcom commander. That obstacle is now gone.

Vice President Cheney's Middle East tour is another indicator. According to a report in The American Conservative, on his previous trip Cheney told our allies, including the Saudis, that Bush would attack Iran before the end of his term. If that report was correct, then his current tour might have the purpose of telling them when it is coming.

Why not just do that through the State Department? State may not be in the loop, nor all of DOD for that matter. The State Department, OSD, the intelligence agencies, the Army, and the Marine Corps are all opposed to war with Iran. Of the armed services, only the Air Force reportedly is in favor, seeking an opportunity to show what air power can do. As always, it neglects to inform the decision-makers what it cannot do.

The purpose of this column is not to warn of an imminent assault on Iran, though personally I think it is coming, and soon."

assaulting others is an american and israeli right - their human right.

Gravatar wufys has a good synopsis of the recent Jones et al. studies of microspherules in the WTC dust; these demonstrate unequivocal high melting temperatures; also the lack of calcium which indicates that the sulphur did not come from drywall.

http://www.wakeupfromyourslumber...r.com/node/ 6178


Gravatar you know what worries me? the "rivers of molton steel running in the core like in a foundry weeks after the event"

i have never got over my "huh?" feeling with this.


Gravatar Let nico go; he's been a magnificent researcher on 9/11 from the earliest days; I think it was nico who coined the terms LIHOP & MIHOP which are excellent pedagocical tools for inducting new people to the 9/11 hoax.

So what if he has hared off after the DEW red herring. You don't have to go down that road, after deciding it's a false trail. He's unwrapped a particular layer of the MIC, which can be interesting in its own right.

The Jones approach is yielding clear forensic evidence of malfeasance, which shows probable cause that should reopen enquiries and enter a court of law. It doesn't have to be the last word on how the foul deed was done; the people who are interested in the actual/possible use of micronukes tend to diminish the work of Jones et al., rather unfairly I think.

Fetzer on the other hand has done nothing material apart from boosting his own ego, and on good days doing some entertaining didactic work. I will never forgive fetzer for his ugly attack on Gerard Holmgren, and his abnormal emphasis on credentialism which is Fetzer's own speciality and accounts for his fawning over the brain-damaged Wood. Okay, the forensic science niche has been ably occupied by Jones et al., so fetzer has to find his own niche in the bombastic philosophy dept. If he would only develop a bit of humility he would be a fine asset in the 9/11 movement. As was nico back in the day.


Gravatar I am afraid that the boring things people say about low quality video and pixel bleed are probably true.

As Jim Hoffman points out, the remote controlled hijack a la global hawk or flight of the bumble planes theory never went away.

However, all this distracts us from the provable fiery demolitions.


Gravatar As for the rivers of molten steel inside the WTC pile, it's hard to know if this was part of the original script in the light & sound show they sold us, and thus largely untrue; or whether there is a factual basis of great residual heat trapped inside the WTC rubble. There were official news reports that the fires were put out near Christmas 2001, that is, after three months, and that fire hoses pumped massive amounts of water over the debris for weeks on end. I haven't seen video of these alleged firehoses, and possibly they were for dust abatement if they were used.

The stories of molten steel under the WTC form a graphic image of great heat, and maybe -- maybe -- they are exaggerated. However, there was heat in abundance; I heard a public lecture by an fireman who was personally there a month later, and he emphasised how hot it was on site. I think he was truthful. So there is confirmable heat to be explained; molten steel is optional without confirmatory evidence, which Fetzer does point out.

There is that 'meteorite' object at the WTC museum somewhere which has fused concrete & steel rebar in an amorphous mess, which is one exhibit for unexplained heat. I take it as practically proved that the WTC rubble was inexplicably hot for weeks. What was the source of this heat? Jones says thermite, Ward says micronukes, Wood says DEWs. Well keep Wood there for completeness in enumerating possibilities, even if unlikely in the event. They all scream 'demolition'.


Gravatar I say thermite/thermate. What I am questioning is whether such heat would have maintained metals above boiling point for any length of time.


Gravatar There was one comment at a blog somewhere which made the incisive point that the official investigations NEVER mention demolitions even though everyone knows that evildoers tried to demolish WTC1 with explosives back in 1993. So why don't the official investigators mention the possibility of explosive demolition when there is a clear precedent for its attempted use by previous 'bad guys'? Well, why not mention it?


Gravatar 'Molten' is a very specific state, and as I've said, maybe optional for describing the horrible heat & fires at the WTC site. There is a photo of cherry red steel being hauled out of the rubble, which is a hot solid not molten steel. After all this time anecdotes of molten steel don't add to the real story of tremendous heat, unless there is a technical reason to require massive amounts of demonstrably molten steel (e.g. thermite turns steel into ponds of molten metal, so where were these ponds?) If thermite produces rivulets of liquid steel which then quickly harden (just guessing) then the anecdotes of masses of molten steel sloshing around, are just that, anecdotes. Can molten steel become a straw man?


Gravatar well, the latter is more correct - "thermite produces rivulets of liquid steel which then quickly harden".

that photo is the subject of one of the very few remarks by Judy Wood that makes any sense to me, namely, that the hydraulics of the digger would have melted, and that in the other classic photo of the four guys looking into some sort of incandescent metallic substance, their faces would have melted.


Gravatar if this "rivers of molten steel" ever turned into a real straw man, steve jones would be able to give a consistent account of how he has used this material, I imagine.


Gravatar How has Jones used it, apart from gussying up the hotness of it all? oh, yeah, he has made something out of a cascade of hot stuff pouring out of a window in the WTC, well, so what, when he gets down to hard science not just vids of dubious provenace, he does deliver the goods. In the end that's all that matters.

Separating wheat from chaff goes with straw men, and I've got a high regard for Steven Jones.


Gravatar I take it as practically proved that the WTC rubble was inexplicably hot for weeks. What was the source of this heat? Jones says thermite, Ward says micronukes, Wood says DEWs.

...and people who get out of the house more than once a year, and have been inside a hi-rise office (AND firemen AND NIST) say

"Doh?! What about 90 floors (x 2) of (combustible) furniture and furnishings mixed up with all that undisturbed rubble and its hundreds of interconnected voids?"


Gravatar HW - and if you look at the scanning electron micrographs of steel microspheres which demonstrate BOILING steel (phreak, that's hotter than molten steel!) you will then explain that as due to a few plastic wastepaper basket fires choking under anoxic piles of rubble?

Don't believe me? ... see wufys link above.


Gravatar righteo, I just watched "Improbable Collapse" again, and put it on my blog too, if I hadn't done before.

This is a 2006 vintage Steven Jones & Co. vehicle that completely avoids all questions of culpability apart from a vague assertion that the gummint did it.

It contains considerable exploitation of the "rivers of molten metal" testiomony from about half-way through onwards, so I can only assume that S Jones is happy with it.


Gravatar Nothing personal, righteo, but I'm attracted to Xymphora.blogspot by the imagination of the blogger responsible, whoever he/she/it may be. Therefore, now and then, I find it irritating to have people transcribing the myopic products of intellectual laziness, stupidity and lack of imagination here.


Gravatar RB - how can one put this --- even in the semi-official accounts of the WTC downfall there are no shortages of tales of extreme heat, probably inescapably so because it was so obvious to all concerned. Possibly, not definitely, but possibly, some of the pictures of hot objects are false. When a movie maker wants to tell this part of the story, she must use the available images that are concordant with what people are telling her. What else can she do? Forgettabout it? Draw her own pictures?

When a researcher such as Jones wants to justify spending his time on a project he uses public domain evidences that give him an a priori reason for doing his work. He has to explain what he's trying to do using what material is to hand. But his real objective is to obtain unique images and results that tell their own story, and these unique data will make the old images obsolete. Will the new data confirm the story behind the old pictures? Or will they refute the story?

This is the old question of 'What is truth'? Are Sofia or Jones telling untruths about WTC when they use public domain images of hot metal at the site? I don't think they are telling fundamental untruths, even if their specific items of evidence turn out to be -- maybe -- a bit dodgy, because there is ample other evidence already and perhaps forthcoming says yes, there was abundant heat at the WTC site. Or put it this way, there is no lucid account that says the WTC was stone cold dust and boring old steel with a few trash fires thrown in for smokey effect.

HW - sayonara if the comments bore you.

righteo | 03.27.08 - 6:48 am


But that is not what I was commenting on. My comment was directed at some 'confusion' about prolonged rubble fires which offered 3 outside-the-box explanations while excluding the obvious one.
911 'Truthers' could be onto something, but until they stop making statements like the one which irritated me, and referring to Zionist whatevers, I'll continue to treat them with the contempt they deserve.

I've looked at the wufys article and, as usual, seek an alternative explanation for the spherules evidence. Lucky for you, my only initial doubt concerns the likelihood or not of a 1.5 mm sphere of iron being light enough to act as airborne 'dust'.

Also, one of the things I did check in the article was when the dust samples under review were gathered (9/14). In the body of the article an oxy-acetyline origin for the spherules is dismissed on chemical analysis as well as timescale grounds. This leads me to wonder if they've ever heard of a thermal lance...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The...i/ Thermal_lance

which, I think you'll agree starts to make the whole 'microscopic spherules' line look a little breathless and ... droopy.
(especially the 7000 to 8000 degrees C part)

"Truthers" really need to get out more...


Gravatar RB - there are two domains for questioning 9/11, one, what exactly happened, and two, whodunnit. Jones once mumbled about zionists or something when asked a stealth question on tv, and promptly got sacked from an honorable career in science. His strength is the forensics of what happened, so he is forgiven (by me) for sticking to his knitting.

If Sofia does the same, just the facts ma'am, then that's okay too. When is her trick planes or no-planes DVD coming out?

I'm waiting for the blockbuster DVD when some heroic individual lays out all the zionist perfidy on 9/11. Didn't Salman have something mapped out along those lines? Please broadcast to all when you hear about it; I'll take ten, thank you very much.


Gravatar oops! make that 7000 to 8000 degrees F.


Gravatar but then again ... what's 5/9 +/- 32 among friends?

Gravatar HW - you make an admirable devil's advocate so please keep at it.

The original Jones et al. article could also be consulted. Maybe you could draw them into conversation about your points?


Gravatar It would be superfluous to point this out to anyone but a 'Truther', but the wiki picture is actually depicting the mass-production of iron spherules - by blasting molten metal into tiny droplets of varying sizes...
Can you taste them?


Gravatar Why don't you ask the good Prof to have some HYTEN thermal-lanced and do a chem analysis on the products? I'm guessing, of course, but my guess is that the products of such an experiment will have an inconveniently similar chemical signature to his '911 spherules'.
Don't think of it as a smart-ass trap. Think of it as a really good excuse to communicate directly with the God of Smoke and Mirrors...


Gravatar And a little irony...
Every time I see wufys I'm reminded of what 'Truthers' were forced to do when an 'inocuous' (and ever so cool) petrol tanker fire on a fly-over brought down the bridge-deck above...


Gravatar Canada is not alone. Even in the US censorship (like this hate speech nonsense) is becoming our favorite past-time.

Free speech forever, no 'hate' laws ever.


Gravatar here is a whole page of references on the "rivers of molten steel", courtesy jim hoffman, who is becoming indispensible, despite his extraordinary determination to maintain that all the planes - even the Pentagon plane - were real:

Gravatar HW - why don't you take it up with the experts instead of slanging off at the cheap seats around here?

RB - ooops, mixed up michael berger's Improbable Collapse with sofia's 911 Mysteries but they cover similar material, do they not?

As for Hoffman, to each their own. He's good on the WTC, but weak on anything with planes. Killtown is much better on planes. Rivero clings to the Pentagon Plane, whereas Xymphora doesn't but won't let the Towers be demolished. Lots of others to choose from. Eclectic subject.


Gravatar eclectic, and strewn or rather seeded with red herrings and straw men, if you will excuse the bizarre mixed metaphors.


Gravatar you will then explain that as due to a few plastic wastepaper basket fires choking under anoxic piles of rubble?

Anoxic?
Can neither of you see that these assertions are mutually exclusive?
If "rivers of molten steel" can pour OUT of the rubble then currents of air can pour IN (to aerate the office furniture fires which are melting the steel).


Gravatar HW - why don't you take it up with the experts instead of slanging off at the cheap seats around here?

Because they're not experts. They never left school and haven't been anywhere or done anything. Worst of all, they lack the intellectual rigor courage/patience to query their own assumptions.

It was THEIR job, not mine, to seek an alternative explanation for the 'spherules'. If you read the wufys text again paying attention to the reference to molybdenum temperature and its relevance to HYTEN, AND the wiki ref to thermic lance fuel and temperature, it's all too obvious that their greatest skill is jumping to premature and unexplored conclusions.

Experts? Not by my definition.


Gravatar HW - get away. Since you're the brainstrust around here you should consult with real men around Jones and tell them how steel microspherules are really made in the real world instead of being baked in hypothetical 7000degF infernos dreamed up by ratbags. Go on, double dare you!


Gravatar Hate to point it out, but they're just a little too keen to "make the evidence fit the theory" - by ignoring inconvenient facts.


Gravatar Righteo, righteo. I've had my say.
As Buddy Holly once said "Rave on" without fear of further interference from me.


Gravatar here is a strange theory from someone writing a "speaking freely" column in Asia Times:

The collapse of the twin towers was entirely a function of their structural engineering. Imagine a large zipper opening from the top. Three floors - crashed and weakened by fire - create a slider of some 15 floors above. On every floor, the outer sheath is held in tension to the tower's core by steel floor joists beneath a concrete tray. As the "slider" hits the floors, the joists give and pull the sheath in after them. With every floor, the "slider's" weight and speed increases, pulling the next floor in and down before it. Very clean, and unforeseen, and emphatically not al-Qaeda's doing.

Gravatar All of this seems pretty pointless due to a large number of variables involved, no matter what the theory, something is overlooked and the theory crashes faster than the WTC.
The only way to put it all to rest is to rebuild the towers (including #7) and bang them with airliners and see what happens.

However, some of the personally most persuasive evidence are testimonials from numerous rescuers, firemen, cops, staff, etc., who all reported huge explosions in the basement of the building(s), some prior to the overhead 'plane' hit.
After initially giving credence to their narrative, the media evidently got the orders from overseers and shut them down.
Much of this is available on internet but likewise ignored by those keen to make evidence fit the theory, which in this instance, is that under no circumstances was there anything other than 19 flying Arabs smacking into the towers, the US and Israel frozen in open mouthed awe.


Gravatar hoffman not too keen on prior explosions - here criticising rick siegel's film:

The sensationalist claims about explosions start slow and build as the film progresses, with the first mention at 3:43. The claimed explosion events multiply as the film goes on. Eventually, about ten "Pre-collapse Explosions" are listed for each Tower, some long before the "collapses" began, all based on the soundtrack. Not only is the soundtrack uncorroborated by any evidence of verifiable origin, it is contradicted by the accounts of people on the ground. For example, the vast body of oral histories by emergency responders released in mid-2005 contains numerous accounts of explosion sounds at the onset of the explosion of each Tower, but apparently does not contain accounts of such sounds occurring before the explosions. Other witnesses in the vicinity of the Towers also did not hear the alleged explosions long before the collapses. Furthermore, seismic records of the events in Manhattan on 9/11/01, such as illustrated by the Palisades chart, don't show any activity above baseline in the minutes before the explosive collapses began. Uncorroborated claims of explosions at times that are clearly contradicted by other bodies of evidence effectively function to distract from accounts of explosions that precipitated the destruction of the Towers. The invention of such uncorroborated explosions is a theme that runs throughout the video.

Gravatar Don't lose any sleep over it, RB. His thesis is that 911 was a comedy of errors on the part of both A-Q and the US. This position obliges him to cast the collapse of WTC as an unforeseen but natural consequence of the damage caused by the planes.

In view of his list of terrorist/terrorism background bibliography, it would be interesting to discover the independent source of his collapse assumption, if any.


Gravatar Of course his thesis also points out that BushCo were ready, willing and able to spin it into a takeover of America, a position few would dispute.


Gravatar this non expert subscribes to the theory that north and south wtc towers would have stood after 2 planes striking each.

this non expert subscribes to the theory that no 7 would fall if struck by a lit match near to a guiliani fart. plane(s) not needed.


Gravatar horsey, hoffman nowhere claims the planes brought down the towers.


Gravatar the fire fighters have nothing to gain by making up stories about molten metal... now you can believe them or the politicians http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=0H...h? v=0HR20Zz8ia4

the full dvd from architect Richard Gage, A.I.A. can be viewed here for free http://stoplying.ca/articles/07/...t/ 090307dvd.php

the question is WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT IT?


Gravatar zenophile, william s lind is a propaganda mouthpiece for the pentagon's self-imagined avant-garde.


Gravatar for the umpteenth time, I challenge anyone to watch this video and claim that William Rodriguez, the head janitor of WTC, initially showered with medals for bravery and offers to run for Congress but subsequently shunned and ostracized for refusing to shut up about underground explosions - is a liar.
Watch and say it.

Jews acting as H-C "witnesses" had all sorts of ideological and fiscal (not necessarily in that order) motives for making up blatant lies but what possible motives would otherwise flag kissing first responders have had to contradict the Whitehouse gospel?


Gravatar oh, sorry, horsey, I see now you meant that the Asia Times "speaking freely" guy believes the planes brought down the towers - obviously jim hoffman doesn't believe that.


Gravatar how is it that none of the buildings in Beirut and elsewhere in Lebanon were brought down in a similar manner in the summer of 06 by Jews employing cruise and air-surface missiles specifically designed for the task?
Not a single one is known to have crashed cleanly onto its foundation.

Those Lebanese contractors obviously know the construction secrets of the Ancients, so that not even God's Children could pull a Biblical style demolition akin to WTC.

And show me any WTC 7 style sympathetic swoons ... it won't happen until Silverstein starts investing into the Lebanese real estate, Jews should deploy him to ME asap.


Gravatar In my mind's eye I see Larry Silverstein with a big rod topped by sheep's head striking a Messiah pose in downtown Beirut and yelling "Pull it!", while the 19th Flying Suicide Bomber squadron of hijacked Israeli Larvae jets screams in.


Gravatar Not a single one is known to have crashed cleanly onto its foundation.
lobro | 03.27.08 - 3:21 pm

Don't tell me ... all buildings are identical and should behave identically, right?


Gravatar No, only Silverstein's do, regardless of whether they get hit or not.

All the others suffer varying degrees of damage and when they fall, it is sideways and every which way but following the plumb line down.


Gravatar Strangely enough almost all the buildings demolished by explosives fall identically, regardless of construction ... I suppose there is also some special magick due to impact by certain class of Boeing passport preserving passenger jets.


Gravatar Hijacked by dopplegangers.


Gravatar Don't tell me ... all buildings are identical and should behave identically, right?

Well, I guess they all have different spherules ...

Gravatar More on buildings fall-down style ... in my limited experience, the objects that collapse in that visually arresting fashion pioneered by WTC cluster (why do I recall Scooter's reference to aspens?) are either in liquid or granular form, say, fountains squirting upwards or sand castles (I have personally observed both types of phenomena).


Gravatar it was enigmatic. I can't even remember the exact words, they were so enigmatic.


Gravatar Out West, where you vacation, the aspens will already be turning. They turn in clusters, because their roots connect them. Come back to work—and life.

Maybe something to do with Izzy Aspen?
Sorry, Asper.
Either way, they all turn in clusters, aspens, jews and WTC buildings.

It is a perfectly natural process and only the anti-schemites would get paranoid.


Gravatar Turning in clusters is not the same as other trees falling over sympathetically because one is felled nearby.
