Why was there $267 Billion in Gold Bars under the WTC, Yet they only found under 300 million dollars worth?

Question

Two Brinks trucks were at ground zero on Wednesday to start hauling away the $200 million in gold and silver that the Bank of Nova Scotia had stored in a vault under the trade center ... A team of 30 firefighters and police officers are helping to move the metals, a task that can be measured practically down to the flake but that has been rounded off at 379,036 ounces of gold and 29,942,619 ounces of silver ..
* Comex metals trading - 3,800 gold bars weighing 12 tonnes and worth more than $100 million
* Comex clients - 800,000 ounces of gold with a value of about $220 million
* Comex clients - 102 million ounces of silver, worth $430 million
* Bank of Nova Scotia - $200 million of gold

Reports describing the contents of the vaults before the attack suggest that nearly $1 billion in precious metals was stored in the vaults. A figure of $650 million in a National Real Estate Investor article published after the attack is apparently based on pre-attack reports.

Evidence of the WTC Attack Suppressed by Authorities

Each the five major destructive events of the September 11th attack on Lower Manhattan produced huge amounts of evidence of the crime. However, each of the three building-destroying events erased huge amounts of evidence. It also created a scene of destruction that was tightly controlled by agencies not protecting the evidence but destroying it. Therefore this missing evidence section includes unavailable evidence of the first installments in the attack that might or might not have been destroyed by later installments. Some of the main types of missing evidence are:

There has been a continuing struggle by independent investigators to obtain documents relating to the World Trade Center disaster. Access to the tower blueprints has been the subject of legal battles, and they remain unavailable to the public as of February, 2005. Suppressed information about the towers' construction is essential, not only for understanding the collapses, but also to public health, since we know that vast quantities of asbestos were released during the collapses.

In July 2002, the New York City government decided that many of the written records and audio recordings documenting the Fire Department's actions on September 11 should never be released, rebuffing a lawsuit filed by the New York Times. 1 In February 2003, New York County Supreme Court upheld a denial a Freedom of Information Law request in which the Times had sought transcripts of interviews with Fire Department employees. The decision ordered that the transcripts be disclosed only after being redacted to remove "opinions and recommendations" of the employees. 2 "Opinions and recommendations" would include any observations by the firefighters that there were bombs in the buildings.

Missing Bodies
More Than 1000 Bodies Are Unaccounted for

The number of people believed to have been killed in the World Trade Center attack hovers around 2,780, three years after the attack. 1 2 No trace has been identified for about half the victims, despite the use of advanced DNA techniques to identify individuals. Six weeks after the attack only 425 people had been identified. 3 A year after the attack, only half of the victims had been identified. 19,906 remains were recovered from Ground Zero, 4,735 of which were identified. Up to 200 remains were linked to a single person. 4 Of the 1,401 people identified, 673 of the IDs were based on DNA alone. Only 293 intact bodies were found. Only twelve could be identified by sight. 5

New York City Medical Examiner Charles Hirsch had the difficult job of informing the friends and families of the victims that the remains of their loved ones might never be identified. The forensic investigation ended in early 2005, when the medical examiner's office stated it had exhaused efforts to identify the missing. The victim identification statistics reported in a February 23, 2005 AP article, listed in the following table, remained about the same as those reported in articles published a year after the attack. 6
nearly 2,800 victims
fewer than 300 whole bodies found
fewer than 1,600 victims identified
over 1,100 victims remain unidentified
over 800 victims identified by DNA alone
nearly 20,000 pieces of bodies found
over 6,000 pieces small enough to fit in test-tubes
over 200 pieces matched to single person
nearly 10,000 unidentified pieces frozen for future analysis

The aircraft impacts and fires in all probability would not have destroyed a single body beyond positive identification. Nor have building collapses ever been known to destroy human remains beyond recognition. However, the buildings were destroyed in a manner that converted most of their non-metallic contents to homogeneous dust, including the bodies. This destruction of the bodies assured that no exact determination could ever be made regarding who was piloting the jets at impact, and the condition of the people on board.

This is one of many examples in which evidence which could either confirm or refute the official story was destroyed. For example, a finding that the people onboard Flights 11 and 175 had been killed by some means before reaching the Towers would undermine the official story of multiple hijackings. The effective cremation of the bodies eliminated most of the evidence that would support such a finding.
Human Remains Discovered in 2006
About a year after the official program to identify victims had ended, more human remains turned up on top of the Deutsche Bank Building, which stands about 400 feet to the south of the location of the former South Tower. 7 According to the Associated Press, more than 300 human bone fragments were recovered from the roof of the 43-story skyscraper as workers removed toxic debris in preparation for a floor-by-floor take-down of the building.

Most of the fragments were less then 1/16th inch in length and were found in gravel raked to the sides of the roof of the building. The Lower Manhattan Development Corporation purchased the building and is planning to begin its deconstruction in June, after removal of toxic waste -- including asbestos, lead, and other materials deposited on it by the destruction of the Twin Towers. 8

Some victims' family members, indignant that the human remains in the Deutsche Bank remained undiscovered for so long, said that the planed deconstruction should be postponed until the building is thoroughly searched for other remains. According to the New York Daily News, as of the second week of April, 2006, 1,151 of the 2,749 people killed in the attack have not been identified, and the medical examiner holds more than 9,000 unidentified human remains. 9

Answer 1

No, The film (Loose Change) suggests that there is a rumour claiming $167 billion in gold was stored in vaults beneath the World Trade Center, and that only $200 million of that amount was recovered. This amount would have exceeded the entire amount of U.S. gold reserves by approximately $67 billion, and would be about 56% of the world's gold reserves in September, 2001. In fact, all of the approximately $230 million in precious metals stored in the vaults beneath the WTC was recovered

Answer 2

sorry but lucky is right. But you go on believing all those conspiracy theories if that's what floats your boat. My favorite is Bush caused Katrina to hit close to New Orleans so mostly poor black people were hurt the worst. Man that guy is smart for being so dumb.

Answer 3

You are aware that that would take the world's total mining capicity 10 years to produce 380,000 ounces? Gold isn't that common..

Answer 4

You need a good website to check out urban legends. Get a grip. This is full of phoney facts.

Answer 5

Ever think of looking on TruthorFiction.com before babbling on and on about conspiracy theories.

TruthorFiction.com also will let you know what BS emails are crap. Its free to look that sort of stuff up and you won't look like a fool.

Answer 6

Oops, meant to thank ya'll for all the gold.

Just bought Hawaii, come on over sometime.

Answer 7

Because it was all preplanned by a pitiful government who could care LESS about the homeless sleeping right outside the White House gates..........Any more questions???????

Answer 8

Are you sure about this?
