9/11 questions [BBC Joins Tinfoil "Truthers"]

BBC ^ | Feb. 14, 2007 | Mike Rudin

[Alouette]

Lots of questions have been raised about 9/11:

Why was the hole in the Pentagon wall so small and why was there so little damage to the outer wall?

Why does it look like there is no plane at the crash site in Pennsylvania where flight United 93 came down?

Why did a building called World Trade Centre Building 7 collapse even though it was never hit by an aircraft?

[petercooper]

Yes 343 of NY's Bravest murdered along with thousands of others so Bush could start some wars. Then Giuliani must be in on it too.

/s

[Alouette]

There have been lots of pictures posted on FreeRepublic and all over the Internet showing huge pieces of easily recognizable airplane debris of Flight 77.

If you'll put down your crack pipe long enough to actually think about this question, take a look at your transcript:

'We've had such terrible loss of life, maybe the smartest thing to do is pull it.'

If "pull it" means demolish the building, how does that in any way relate to or follow from the first part of the sentence about loss of life?

Of course....see how big this conspiracy is? It's PRACTICALLY EVERYBODY but the Arabs.

(It's amazing how this conspiracy has to keep getting bigger and bigger. Pretty soon we'll all have to have been part of it.)

Just so you know, Penn and Teller are also flaming atheists who have trashed the Bible in their show "Bullshit".

[PigRigger]

So while they were fighting fires and attempting to save people...in the building.....they were also preparing to blow-up the building. Why would they be so open with their discussion, why not take it down as the towers collasped...?

Honestly.....this is the stupidest theory I have ever come across.....

Use your brain....what firemen would enter an inferno knowing explosives were strewn all around???

You just can't make this stuff up....really, you just can't....God help us....

[Fresh Wind]

The moonbats are quick to tell us all about how stupid Bush is and how incompetent his administration is, and yet they are just as quick to tell us all about how this gang of idiots managed to pull off this massive plot.

As for WTC-7, what possible reason would there be to destroy it without a plane impact as cover for the explosion? Was there supposed to be another plane which was planned to hit WTC-7 that never arrived and they had to blow it up to hide the explosives that were already planted? No way. They would never have planned to destroy an insignificant building like WTC-7. They would have gone for the Empire State building.

It just doesn't make any sense.

[atomicpossum]

Just so you know, Penn and Teller are also flaming atheists who have trashed the Bible in their show "Bullshit".

Yes, I know. But the fact that someone so far from my opinion on one matter can agree with me on this issue speask volumes.

[Hillarys Gate Cult]

And it's impossible for the planes' wings to break away from the fuselage or fold up, even though they're designed to do that.

They say the hole in the Pentagon isn't big enough for a plane to have gone through by referencing other previous crashes to bomb resistant buildings that number in the one digits. That digit being zero.

>>>Why did a building called World Trade Center Building 7 collapse even though it was never hit by an aircraft?

I do find this one intriguing

Larry Silverstien stating he said 'Pull it'.

I shouldn't really get angry at these kinds of comments but as someone who had her wedding lunch at a restaurant in World Trade Center 7 (and now have no place to go to revisit one of the happiest days of my life), I DO resent it.

[wideawake]

That digit being zero.

LOL! See? Point proven.

[Calpernia]

There was no brigade there.

The Fema report is no longer on their site; but it is still in archives.

See page 5-24 section 5.6

[Calpernia]

There was no fire crew in the building to pull out.

[Niteranger68]

Demolition experts will tell you that "pull it" means nothing to them. Thus, the Silverstein interview means nothing. Think about it.....if it was a conspiracy to destroy the building, why would he admit it? On tape? Do yourself a big favor and quit being the fecal product of what happens when shame eats too much stupidity.

[Calpernia]

Take you insults and pound them up your arse.

[atomicpossum]

There was no brigade there.

Then who planted the bombs?

Oh, right, it was a remote-controlled Dick Cheney.

[Calpernia]

That would be a question for Silverstein. Not me. I just pasted his words and the Fema report.

[atomicpossum]

Yeah...you pasted from the FEMA report, and ignored the pages and pages following the one line you selected outlining likely causes of failure of WTC-7, including the outlining of massive damage to the building even though, as the 'truther' liars insist, "it was never hit by an airplane."

Well, pick and choose, that's the way to beleive in conspiracies.

[Calpernia]

I was referencing the section that stated there was no brigade in the building. I didn't ignore a thing.

[atomicpossum]

No, you've been claiming that the building was brought down deliberately, as the Beeb's 'interesting question' implies. Your only support for this is a word you decided meant one thing when there is no evidence it means any such thing. Meanwhile, all the extensions of that assertion and the growing and wide-ranging conspiracy that stems from it continues to become more convoluted, unlikely, and bizarre, as they always do when someone clings to something they invent rather than what is obvious before their eyes.

Good day-- I will ignore you from this point in, as you are obviously tied wholeheartedly to something every bit as odious as the philosophy of the Jihadis who really DID commit this act of terrorism.
