The Twin Towers went down from plane crashes on national television. How much more evidence do you need? How many fires and bomb sites have you cleaned up?

Well, I’m not a truther; just a guy who happened to spend a lot of time around bombing ranges playing with all sorts of energetic materials.

The thing is, most destructive forces don’t leave nice puzzle pieces that all fit nicely back together. When you burn and blow stuff up, material properties change including volume. Also, people rarely account for voids and variable compaction rates. It’s not rocket science; rocket science is comparatively easy sometimes. Even the best minds are often wrong about explosions—see some of the conjecture regarding atomic bombs. Anyway, that’s why we have ranges, and that’s why we call them test ranges.

If you want to talk about magic explosions, Oklahoma City is a far more interesting topic.

Honestly, how anyone can watch those towers fall in free fall speed and not question it is disappointing to say the least. It really makes me sad that this tragedy occurred, and nobody will even investigate, and then have the nerve to complain about our elitist corrupt govt.

Oh My God. It’s 9/11. I hadn’t even realized. Too much contemporary sh!te going on I guess. Good news, my truck is going to survive the flood it was just in.

Re #13:

When I started reading this thread I just assumed you were unobservant. Now I realize you’re also an idiot.

Not to mention that you can see timed explosions happening in the building as the fall is taking place! For pete’s sake they put a tranny in the WH for eight years yet people still can’t fathom that 9/11 was a set up.

I’ll certainly never forget. I was about three blocks away, on the 29th floor of an apartment house facing the Battery, when the second plane flew by my window. And my oldest son would have been giving a talk at breakfast in the restaurant at the top of one of the towers when it happened, if he hadn’t flown in hours late from a business trip to China and phoned in that he couldn’t make it.

I walked around the area for years, reading the messages and condolences and praying for the dead.

Uh -- whut?

Are you suggesting that those passenger jets didn't really crash into the buildings?

There are no such things as atomic weapons. All staged! All fake! /s

I don’t need to be reminded.

The screensaver for my phone and computers is a picture of me on Ellis Island with the World Trade Center in the background.

It is a beautiful picture and was part of a 4th of July celebration that took me through Manhattan, Philadelphia, New Hope-New Jersey and culminated with watching the 4th of July fireworks on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial.

I love Manhattan and I literally walk everywhere, rarely taking cabs or the train.

I would walk from Eli’s Bread Factory on 91st and Lexington to Battery Park for a Pirogi and Diet Coke, many times walking through World Trade.

I was suppose to be in Manhattan a few days after 911 for my birthday(9-17 Constitution Day) and those Murderous bass tards forever scarred my soul.

I’ve never been surprised, disappointed but not surprised, that the left believes all that Truther BS. But when conservatives believe it it just makes me wish I could meet them so I could push them down a long flight of stairs.

Well, you are crazy.

I watched that whole thing unfold on Live TV.

We haven’t forgotten the Twin Towers and the Assholes of Islam that killed nearly 3000 Americans.

September 11 is an important symbol in the Muz-world.
September 11, 1683, is the day Jan Sobieski handed the Ottoman Empire their collective asses on a plate and drove the Muslims out Europe during their Siege of Vienna.
If you haven’t seen it, I’d recommend watching the movie, “The Day of the Siege” (2012). It is very well done.

Its true! If you look closely at my trinitite samples, it was really made in China. It was placed in New Mexico by OSS agents to continue the scam. They actually trucked in millions of pounds of TNT to the ranges and used ammonium nitrate shape charges to create the supposed implosion and mushroom clouds.

It was just downrange from where they filmed the Moon Landings.

Yesterday I ran into a random pic of the building erected at the site of the twin towers. I showed my 6 year old granddaughter a photo of the original buildings and told her that every September 11 we remember what happened there. Then I quietly answered her many questions, flipping through a book of somewhat tame Reuters photos to give her an idea. She asked to see each page. She wanted to see a photo of each victim, but I never bought that enormous book published by the NYT.

She learned, also, about the Pentagon attack and the “Let’s Roll” courage that saved our special buildings in DC at the cost of the brave passengers’ lives in PA.

Afterward, she quietly left the room, took our American flag out of the coat closet and began marching up and down the sidewalk in honor of those who died and the many people who were so brave that day.

My daughter, college freshman that year, said her daughter should have been protected from that knowledge. Too late. The child, like her grandma, will never forget.
