Eyewitness Inside WTC 7 Reported Explosions Before Collapse
An eyewitness who evacuated WTC 7 before its collapse reported an explosion inside the building, before exiting via the lobby which had been almost completely destroyed - before either of the twin towers had collapsed nearly 400 yards away in the WTC complex.
This testimony severely undermines the flawed explanation that Building 7 collapsed as a result of the damage it sustained following the collapse of the towers, since the structure was seemingly being gutted by explosives prior to 9:59AM.
WTC 7 was not hit by a plane but collapsed in a perfect implosion in its own footprint at 5:20PM.
From a September 11, 2001 Associated Press report.
After the initial blast, Housing Authority worker Barry Jennings, 46, reported to a command center on the 23rd floor of 7 World Trade Center. He was with Michael Hess, the city's corporation counsel, when they felt and heard another explosion. First calling for help, they scrambled downstairs to the lobby, or what was left of it. "I looked around, the lobby was gone. It looked like hell," Jennings said. |
let's put it into context shall we?

Government Train Wreck: How government covers up freight train accidents…
"The noise sounded like two freight trains going over a trestle right over your head; it was an ugly roar. My wife said the noise when the house went was like a giant pencil sharpener working.”
http://www.crh.noaa.gov/dtx/1953beecher/storiesFJ.php
[Did a fright train pass over their head? Was there a giant pencil sharpener really over there heads?]
“While I was in my kitchen I heard this terrible roar coming," she said. "It sounded like a freight train coming right down my road here”
"It looks like it's been bombed. There's just a lot of destruction, a lot of debris," said Michael Bartz, a state emergency official. "
http://archives.cnn.com/2002/WEATHE...nado/index.html
[Was it a bomb? Did a real freight train go down her road?]
"It indeed sounded like a freight train roaring past us, and when it was gone, we came out to find things a mess."
http://www.offenburger.com/farmarch...p?link=20040906
It came with "the roar of forty freight trains."
http://www.tornadochaser.com/UDALL/reports.htm
“It sounded like a freight train”.
http://www.disasternews.net/news/ne...?articleid=2954
“Before I reached the bottom of the stairs, I heard the sound of a roaring freight train”
[enter image of NOAA weather map an hour before the tornado touches down.]
As you can see, there was no tornado on that day, according to NOAA.
So why is the government covering up train derailments? |

You and NIST ignore the molten metal was present, it was present and lets remember the rescue workers who where actually at ground zero will tell anyone this. It is not so much of exactly what caused it but more it was there and it is ignored. |
perhaps, but you haven't stated WHY molten metal is significant. no other demolition in history that i have ever heard of left molten metal at the scene. explosives dont work that way.
again "so what?" is the answer to that until you show why molten metal is significant. we all saw molten metal pouring out of at least one of the WTCs before collapse, so why is it surprising to find some at ground zero after the collapse??

How the fuck do you know it takes tons of it in the first case sherlock? Has it ever occurred to you thermate was used to weaken the beams in conjunction with other explosives to take the towers down? |
because of the chemical nature of thermite, and the videos i have seen of thermite in action. it takes a large amount of thermite to burn a relatively small amount of steel. ive posted you videos of it in use previously. and the simple fact that thermite can't cut steel beams in the fashion you suspect, even more thermite would be needed to finish the job. a simple amount of research could have given you this answer you know.
here AGAIN, is a video of how much thermite is used to burn a small hole in an engine.

Note how much thermite is used. The pot is about a liter, but how much thermite is that?
Stoichiometric thermite requires 2 moles of Al per 1 mole of Fe2O3
2Al + Fe2O3 = Al2O3 + 2Fe
2 moles of Al weigh 54 g
1 mole of Fe2O3 weighs 160 g
density of Al=2.64 g/cc
density of Fe2O3=5.24 g/cc
54 grams of Al is equivalent to 20.5 cc of Al.
160g of Fe2O3 is equivalent to 30.5 cc of Fe2O3
Therefore, 51 cc of fully dense powder of 20.5 cc Al and 30.5 cc Fe2O3 weighs (54+160) g = 214 g.
A volume of 1000 cc would weigh (1000/51)*214 = 4.2 kg
For a powder packing density of 50%, the powder would weigh:
0.5*4.2 kg = 2.1 kg = 4.8 lb
That much just to burn a small hole in a small car engine. I bet it's even an aluminum block but lets say it isn't. How much do you think it would take to burn a massive core column? Then add enough to burn for 6 weeks! You see where we're going. You'd need tons. |
and again, in this super-secret plot, i dont understand why you think the government would try a completely new and untested method of bringing down buildings, if they actually wanted to succeed.
honestly, think about it. the collapse occured top-down. whether the foot of the structure had been "weakened" by thermite or had NOTHING to do with the collapse. if the structural integrity had been deliberately weakened at the base, why on earth do we not see any evidence of it in the collapses? the bases of both 1&2 were in perfect condition until the upper floors collapsed onto them. there is NOTHING that thermite could have achieved at the base.

You asked a good question for once. Let's get a new proper investigation going which includes everything which transpired regarding 9/11 and all the facts and find the hell out. |
actually, i was asking YOU the question, since you believe so strongly. i want to hear a rational and convincing argument for further explosives, where they were placed etc. still waiting.

see above.

Because thermate and other devices used had to weaken the support of the buildings a hell of a lot more. Jet fuel and fires did not do it on their own. Your NIST report said that jet fuel burns off very quickly if not instantly, you sure you actually read it? |
this simply flies in the face of all data and the nature of thermite or thermate. again, weakening the support at the base in this manner would not aid a collapse that had begun at the top.

I made the statement because in engineering things like planes (and their fuel) are taken in consideration when building these massive structures. I did state it was B-25 which crashed into the empire state building from the start and never said it was the same type aircraft as those used in the 9/11 inside job. |
you're still comparing apples to oranges, which isn't good science. if you're going to bring into the debate of, say, the B-25 & the empire state building, you need to show WHY they are of any relevance or significance. they aren't, so stop comparing them.

Why do you ignore the many rescue workers, firefighters, police officers, victims, families of victims, CIA agents, FBI agents, political figures saying it was an inside job? |
you haven't answered my question. but to answer yours-
lack of evidence. what people "believe" is of less concern to me than what they can prove or how reliable their "evidence" is. if your movement honestly has so many supporters, why after 6 years has it still born no fruit?
there is a MASSIVE difference between a firefighter's testimony regarding FIRE that they bore witness to, and families of victims and what they perceive to be true. you can't even compare the two in terms of compelling evidence, theyre poles apart.

You forgot question #7 like NIST forgot WTC7, I cannot blame you as you are probably losing your mind trying to find another structure that has collapsed the same way WTC7 did due to fires. |
hahaha. thats actually pretty funny.

The thermate being ignited by the fires is true if you actually believe in fairy tales like the official story.
You must still believe in Santa Claus as well. |
see, do you even have ANY understanding of how thermite is used? thermite is completely unable to resist hot temperatures, as thermite is ignited by heat or by spark (see above video)
it is impossible for it to co-exist in an environment that is THAT hot. this isn't my opinion, its just the fact of how this particular incendiary works. so you can stop the cheeky banter and provide me with credible and scientifically valid statements if you can
