9/11: An Inside Job?

Question

I was amazed at all the Google video that claims that 9/11 was an inside job. A lot of it is pretty convincing. Have you seen any of it, and if so, what do you think?

Answer 1

It's pure drivel. Here are explanations to some points that are often raised:

Q. It looks like a controlled demolition.
A. To the untrained eye the collapse of the WTC buildings may look like a controlled demolition, but essentially all demolition experts say the collapse didn’t look like a demolition. They don’t work for gov’t. Here’s an article from the world-renowned journal, Implosion World that destroys the “controlled demolition theory” :

Q. The towers fell at free-fall speeds.
A. The buildings did not fall at free fall speeds. According to NIST, which used seismic recorders & other techniques to measure the time, the exterior panels took 9-11 seconds. Free fall would have taken 8.5 seconds. The inner parts of WTC1&2 (roughly 60 stories of WTC 1 and 40 stories of WTC 2) stood 15 to 25 seconds after collapse initiation before they, too, began to collapse. Thus, nothing unusual was detected. See Point 6 at http://wtc.nist.gov/pubs/factsheets/faqs_8_2006.htm

Q. There were explosions in the towers (puffs of air)
A. The WTC towers were mostly air, having an average density that’s less than balsa wood. This air has to go somewhere during pan-caking, The dust was simply due to air being expressed during pan-caking.

Loizeaux, of Controlled Demolition (which holds world records in demolition) says demolition charges would have produced a far bigger effect than a “puff.” (p.46) . Four executives of world-renowned demolition companies that did NOT participate in the FEMA or NIST studies confirm that the dust was not consistent with demolition charges (Pop Mech, “Debunking 9/11” page 45)
Columbia University has permanent seismographic recorders that was running on 9/11 which clearly show no explosives during the collapse of Towers 1 & 2, or of WTC7 . See page 2 of

Q. No Other large building ever fell from fire alone
A. That may be true, but the main cause of the collapse was the damage caused by the jet impacts. The fires only helped. No other building in the US has ever been subjected to the massive structural damage and concurrent, jet-fueled, multi-floor fires that the towers experienced on Sept. 11, 2001. The only other US building to be hit by a plane was the Empire State Building. The Empire State Building is massively over-engineered, its steel encased in concrete. Today, we don’t build skyscrapers this rigidly. The plane was a 10-ton B25 Bomber. Reference: Point #3 in http://wtc.nist.gov/pubs/factsheets/faqs...

Answer 2

Of course it was.

I've read some of these "debunking" articles, too. They ignore mountains of evidence that does prove beyond any reasonable doubt that it was an inside job.

But in order to understand all that, people would be required to think much harder than they have grown accustomed to.

And we certainly can't ask our fellow countrymen to think, now can we? Why, that would be unthinkable.

Answer 3

i did see it. Its garbage. Far as I know only 2 planes were involved on the attack at the WTC. This footage showss a montage of several different aircraft.

Answer 4

I've seen it and it really makes me wonder, it IS quite convincing.
I also know that we will never know what ever the real truth is...so very sad.

Answer 5

O.J. Simpson done it.

Answer 6

i ve seen it but its all a bunch of crap
