I will put this bluntly. Conspiracy theories are for dunces unable to cope with the world as it is. Conspiracy theorists, especially, 9/11 CTers, tend to display a discouraging lack of understanding about basic principles of math, science, engineering and human behavior.

The truth is simple.

Planes hit buildings

Buildings burn

Buildings fall down.

All the CTer hand waving over trivial minutiae can not erase those simple facts.

There were no bombs in the buildings. A couple of smart, fanatics, well financed by a multi millionaire managed to find a chink in our defenses by exploiting the very thing they hate, our freedoms.

Every single CTer claim has been debunked over and over, yet the CTer’s persist in their rabid protestations.

It makes you wonder what their real motives are. It certainly isn’t to find the “truth’ as they claim.

How come Mr. "Anon E. Mouse" doesn't sign his own name?

Hi night-owls. A fine commentary by Prof MacQueen of McMaster Uni, Ontario (YouTube):

And as for the perpetrators, this fine piece throws some light:

I have wearily grown tired of this paticular deabte, in my mind the debate is well and truly over. What I have been intersted in lately is how human beings, presented with the same simple set of circumstances can come to such a drastically different interpretation of events.

On the one hand there are people such as Mr. Anon E. Mouse, who I am sure is an intelligent, politically aware, rational human being, certain in his own mind of the logic of his arguement.

I am equally as certain in my mind that Mr. Anon E. Mouse is a sucker, and for reasons I don't understand he cannot even consider the glaringly obvious facts about 9/11.

Who had the motive? who had the means? who has benefited the most?

Like I said, its glaringly obvious to me, but probably thouroughly ridiculous to Mr. Anon E. Mouse.

Is it any wonder the world is so f**ked up??

P.S I knew I'd see you here Chris, keep up the great posts!

To me, the biggest suckers are those that ignored science classes in school, derided students who studied math and engineering subjects as “nerds,” yet tsomehow think that they are qualified to present expert opinions on those very topics.

So tell me. How many on you support the “no planes” version with the spaced based ray guns as put forth by Judy Wood?

Are you at least going to admit that she is an obvious wack job?

It is simple.

Planes hit buildings
Buildings burn
Damaged and burning buildings fall down.

End of discussion.

People like Carl above, come to conclusions based on their political viewpoints FIRST, then they seek to cherry pick for evidence that supports their predetermined conclusion, while ignoring the preponderance of data that refutes them.

I also find it rather amusing that the first post after mine is nothing more than a veiled ad-hominem attack.

It comes down to your interpretation of how things work.

For example, do light bulbs emit light or do they absorb darkness? The closer you get to the bulb, the less darkness there is. Eventually they fill up and stop working.

Nevertheless, steel skyscrapers are designed NOT to fall down in this manner and Building 7 in particular had no reason to collapse.

As somebody explained in one of the docos I saw, "I have a theory that I may win the lottery one day. If I never buy a ticket it remains a theory. As soon as I buy a ticket, the theory becomes a possibility."

All it takes is to disprove a single item in the entire scenario and the whole thing becomes invalid.
If everything else was true except that WTC7 was brought down by a controlled demolition, how does this fit in? It can't.
