COMMEMORATING THE 16TH ANNIVERSARY OF 9/11

Post by JU-87 »

COMMEMORATING THE 16TH ANNIVERSARY OF 9/11
Post-mortem of the “official story”
Before going into details, let us recall, however, that the Twin Towers and the Solomon Building (World Trade Centre Building 7) that came down on 9/11 are the only skyscrapers in history anywhere in the world to have ever fallen down from a fire, let alone vertically on their own footprints, which alone is impossible, according to thousands of engineers and experts from other fields...

...where the story must collapse scientifically is when one asks: “How did the steel beams melt in a matter of minutes, allowing for the three buildings to vertically collapse the way that they did?” This is because, according to the official story, the buildings collapsed as they did, after jet fuel had melted the steel beams holding them up. But thousands of experts have contested this by pointing out the irrefutable fact that jet fuel—an ordinary hydrocarbon—has a maximum burning temperature of 1200°F, while steel doesn't start melting until it reaches a temperature of 2750°F. Then how could jet fuel have melted the steel beams leading to their collapse? Common sense says it couldn't; and that it never did.

I disagree,... Other fuels in that building to raise temps wood, carpet,papers and so on plenty of fuel. The steel never needed to melt,... only to weaken it to a point where it would no longer support the thousands of tons from the floors above. :wink:

A better title for this "article" would be "Commemorating Another Rehash of Thoroughly Debunked Conspiracy Theories Surrounding 9/11"

From mentions of the magic nanothermite paint to still trying to pass off a feature article in EPN as a peer reviewed scientific paper (which the publication has completely distanced itself from) This tripe covers it all.

To avoid any more confusion, here is what a 9/11 commemoration looks like.

Ugh this nonsense. Steel weakens as it gets heated. That's why for centuries blacksmiths would heat steel before shaping it into whatever. Do you think they could've done that at room temperature but just enjoyed working around a blazing hot forge?

Here's a guy who works steel for a living, saying the same thing & demonstrating:

The vertical structural materials may, and probably were, have been steel beams but both buildings had horizontal structures of trusses instead of "I" beams.
A comment made shortly after 9/11 by a senior fire fighter was that they have a saying: "Don't trust trusses."
He stated at that time that most of the towers was built using (IIRC) aluminium trusses and once one floor collapsed down the ones below started to telescope down under the weight.

All explained here: http://www.debunking911.com/towers.htm

The complete collapse of the Twin Towers has more to do with the construction than anything else. Yes, it was the loss of fireproofing and subsequent fires that collapsed the building but if it were not for the construction, a total collapse may not have occurred. Ironically, the construction also saved many lives by letting the towers stand as long as they did. These pages explain the construction and provide evidence for collapse by fire.
