Controlled demolitions

See also red chips / nanothermite.

The official story is that the effects of the plane crashes and subsequent fires somehow caused the buildings to collapse.  This is unscientific nonsense.  It has been proven false, and there is no hard evidence supporting this official story.

The Twin Towers and Building 7 were brought down using explosives in what is known in the industry as a controlled demolition. On 9/11 Dan Rather and other news anchors said as they showed the replays of the Twin Towers coming down that they looked like controlled demolitions. Rather was right, but his comments were not repeated as the official story was put in place of these honest initial observations.

Here are the characteristics of controlled demolition in both Building 7 and the Twin Towers:

WTC Building #7, a 47-story high-rise not hit by an airplane, exhibited all the characteristics of classic controlled demolition with explosives:

  1. Rapid onset of collapse
  2. Sounds of explosions
  3. Symmetrical structural failure
  4. Free-fall acceleration through the path of what was greatest resistance
  5. Imploded, collapsing completely, landing almost in its own footprint
  6. Massive volume of expanding pyroclastic-like clouds
  7. Expert corroboration from the top European controlled demolition professional
  8. Foreknowledge of “collapse” by media, NYPD, FDNY

In the aftermath of WTC7’s destruction, strong evidence of demolition using incendiary devices was discovered:

  1. FEMA finds rapid oxidation and intergranular melting on structural steel samples
  2. Several tons of molten metal reported by numerous highly qualified witnesses
  3. Chemical signature of the incendiary thermite found in solidified molten metal, and dust samples

the Twin Towers’ destruction exhibited all of the characteristics of destruction by explosives:

  1. Destruction proceeds through the path of greatest resistance at nearly free-fall acceleration
  2. Improbable symmetry of debris distribution
  3. Extremely rapid onset of destruction
  4. Over 100 first responders reported explosions and flashes
  5. Multi-ton steel sections ejected laterally
  6. Mid-air pulverization of 90,000 tons of concrete & metal decking
  7. Massive volume of expanding pyroclastic-like clouds
  8. 1200-foot-diameter debris field: no “pancaked” floors found
  9. Isolated explosive ejections 20–40 stories below demolition front
  10. Total building destruction: dismemberment of steel frame
  11. Several tons of molten metal found under all 3 high-rises
  12. Evidence of thermite incendiaries found by FEMA in steel samples
  13. Evidence of explosives found in dust samples

It’s noteworthy that the NIST (see below, separate entry) took until late 2008 to explain what happened with Building 7. Yes obviously this team of geniuses took about 7 years to think about it and come up with a plan. Then they had to change their explanation when David Chandler pointed out that Building 7 had fallen for 2.5 seconds at the acceleration due to gravity, or free fall speed.

David Chandler’s excellent video on this subject is here:

David Ray Griffin wrote a book about this theory by NIST about what caused Building 7 to come down. They only made themselves look more like criminals and conspirators by publishing their theory.
