Trump campaign manager: Media suppressing proof of 9/11 claim
The Hill ^ | November 24, 2015 | Neetzan Zimmerman

Posted on 11/24/2015 2:01:47 PM PST by detective

Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump’s campaign on Tuesday continued to double down on the real estate mogul’s controversial claim that he saw “thousands and thousands” of Muslim-Americans cheering in New Jersey following the terror attacks of Sept. 11, 2001.

"For the mainstream media to go out and say that this didn’t happen is just factually inaccurate,” Trump’s campaign manager Corey Lewandowski told Breitbart News.

The people could care less what the “media” report anymore.

That journalist was either lying in his original article or is a total sick puppy. Probably the latter. I’m sorry but Trump is entitled - as all of us are - to quote from newspapers. The media is as bad at the college morons talking about safe spaces.

Trump is getting bogged down by his own doing.

Again.

Well there was about 25,000 gallons of jet fuel on each airplane. Remember, they were each fueled for a flight across the United States. That's why the a-holes chose them.

I'm sure not all of the fuel burned at impact. Some flowed down the building, both inside and out, afterward.

But in fairness to vette6387, I didn't know exactly when that video was taken. It might have been minutes after the impact, or it might have been hours.

Well, come to think of it, it couldn't have been too many hours. The north tower was hit at 0846, and fell at 1028, an interval of 102 minutes.

Anyway, I agree with vette6387 that jet fuel was probably not flowing down the side of the building or anywhere else for a longer period than five or ten minutes.

Not really. NATO just destroyed a Russian fighter.

“I thought it was jet fuel at the time. You’re probably right.”

I didn’t see it, so my comment was only conjecture. But since any of the aircraft’s fuel would have emanated from a point where it would have been ignited, it would seem unlikely that it would not have caught fire and burned up.

If I remember correctly Univision was the only channel that showed the WTC jumpers in real time. Every other US media source covered them up and still won't show them.

The same media that show the Abu Ghraib “torture” pictures endlessly.

I was at a VA Clinic today and, to my surprise, they had Fox News on all of the TVs. Shep Smith said “It did not happen.” So, I guess that settles the issue.

I swear I remember seeing news reports of muslims cheering. I know they were overseas but I believe there were several reports of them cheering here. One was in Dearborn, Mi.

“Oh but that right, ignore and forget what you saw. It is not politically correct.

Like the Jews, Americans are just suppose to die quietly out of sight less they offend the Elitist tender sensibilities by doing something about it.”

I just have no idea what’s got your panties in a wad? I simply speculating based on the idea that the jet fuel would have been consumed in short order by the fire that resulted from the plane hitting the building. So I don’t know where the Jews come into the discussion or just how this affects Americans dying that day. I hope tomorrow is a better day for you.

Oh, that I know something about.

Jet fuel is not very flammable unless it is vaporized. The massive fires that broke out in the Twin Towers were caused by fuel vaporized by the high kinetic energy of the impact.

I know this because I've tried to light a charcoal fire with diesel fuel. It doesn't work. It won't light. You have to spray a little camp fuel on it first. Then the heat from the camp fuel will vaporize the diesel, and it will burn.

I know that diesel is not identical to jet fuel, but I think it's pretty close.

Anyway, there was so much fuel on board that aircraft, I thought it was reasonable that a lot of it didn't burn in the explosion, and ran down the outside of the building. I didn't think of the possibility that the sprinkler system was flooding the building. That actually seems like a more likely explanation, in hindsight.

Friction of the plane body hitting the steel of the building would generate all that was needed.

Once of the reasons the Muzie thugs picked the planes they did was because they were on long distance flights from airports near NY. The Islam fascists knew they would be full of jet fuel when they hit the buildings. Remember Bin Laden had a civil engineering background. He knew exactly what he was doing when he planned this.

I can close my eyes and see that image still. But yes, in fairness to Vett, it was not 5-10 minutes.

In this life, or the next, there will be a reckoning with the Isalmo-Fascists for that day.

I cannot talk about this anymore. I am still far far too angry.

Thanks for all of those.

I was glued to FR that morning. In fact, I was reading the morning stories on FR when the first plane hit. It was here on FR that I first learned that smoke was coming from one of the WTC towers, and that people were saying that an airplane had crashed into it.

I remember it very clearly.

Oh, it's outrageous.

Also the Rodney King beating, and the other white-on-black racial incidents.

The black-on-white incidents are never shown, even though video of them often exists, at least these days with ubiquitous CCTV cameras.

No question in my mind that the media would be holding back. Eyewitness accounts do back up what Trump said. So does the WaPo article.
