Sept 11th - FIVE YEARS ON

If I was paranoid - A starting point for discussion

I’d believe the claims of a new paradigm for “the ruling class”. No longer a social/economic strata, as defined by Marx & Lenin etc. now more an association of the most aggressive and wealthy owners of the US Military Industrial/Oil/Wall St/ Complex, allied to organised drugs gangs and the tireless seekers of state power - “our political leaders”. Real power seems to reside in a much tighter knit group than ever before. They seek always to extend their power and dominance no matter what the cost in lives or harm to our world. In the dangerous age of peak oil, global warming, and galloping environmental despoliation, modern capitalism morphs into corporatism.

“Fascism should more appropriately be called Corporatism because it is the merger of state and corporate power”: Mussolini

Events of September 11th

Sept. 11 was the cornerstone of a plot to justify a new chapter in US military and economic expansionism. There is a massive amount of evidence showing that hierarchies in government, the military industrial complex, oil industry and Wall Street backed the creation of a world-wide web of “Islamic terrorism”. They aided and abetted those that attacked the Pentagon and the WTC and caused the absolute total failure of US Air Defence Forces for more than three hours. Responsibility for the actual collapse of the three steel framed buildings is, as yet, unproven.

9/11 Commission Report

The official investigation into the demolition of the towers and building 7 is a whitewash. Key witnesses were not called. Forensic evidence is not investigated nor is US complicity with Islamic extremists. It is clear that the impact of the planes and fires were not the cause of the collapse. These are the only steel framed buildings ever to collapse into a pile of 10 metre section steel beams and microscopic dust clouds due to fire or earthquake.

The report on the Pentagon is a mass of contradictory evidence with not one single piece of the Boeing 757 revealed, just a small hole through three wings (six reinforced walls) of the building. Damage similar to what an armour piercing cruise missile might leave.

COLLAPSE OF THE TWIN TOWERS Sept 11th 2001

Basic science

I believe the basic science inherent in the collapse of the twin towers and building 7 is the key to unlocking the minds of millions to the mountain of verifiable evidence of criminal intrigue by the overlords of our fragile world. This seems essential if there is to be any hope of changing the course set towards an extremely damaged and terrorised world that maybe just a generation away.

The official story

The official story is that the towers collapsed because fire weakened steel supports causing a floor to collapse: the force of this floor collapsing, with the weight of the upper floors falling symmetrically onto the one below, causing every one of the 47 enormous steel uprights at the core and 240 perimeter columns to “gave way” at exactly the same moment in time, floor by floor, leading to the progressive, symmetrical collapse of the towers, virtually into their own footprint

Galileo’s theory on free fall

Galileo’s theory is a basis of modern science and is an absolute. The theory would indicate a free fall collapse time of approximately 12 seconds which is about the time the towers took to fall from video and seismic evidence. This time takes no account of any resistance from floor to floor as the core and exterior columns were said to “buckle and give way” progressively due to the pancaking of the floors.

Twin towers construction

A new design at the time, now common practice on tall towers, there is an immensely strong core with stairs and lift/service shafts with smaller, more numerous, external columns allowing open plan office space.

* The 47 core columns were 52 inches by 22 inches at their base. Fabricated in long lengths of 5 inch thick steel, in the lower sections they had steel slabs running through their centres making them almost solid. They reduced to columns measuring 32 inches by 16 inches of 4 inch thick steel as the towers height increased. The cores were cross braced with a lattice of steel beams. The floors in the core were structurally independent of the office floors which were connected to the 240 exterior columns of 14 inch wide steel box columns. These were fabricated in 2.5 inch thick steel at the base, reducing to .25 inch thick steel at the top floors.

Damage and collapse

* The video clips of the South Tower (hit around the 80th of 110 floors) show the 30 floors above the impact zone falling at an angle in one piece i.e. the 30 floor unit with 47 enormous core steel uprights and 240 external uprights, along with integrated concrete and steel floors plus structural window framing, started their decent at an angle to perpendicular of approximate 15%. Within a couple of video frames this separate 30 floor section, of steel and concrete, had turned to dust as it followed the symmetrical collapse of the lower floors.

* The North Tower (hit around the 95th floor) collapse started from the very top, with the radio mast being the first part of the entire tower to start dropping. This means the centre core gave way first.

* Each tower collapsed in around 12 seconds. The enormous pyroclastic cloud that enveloped each tower as it collapsed concealed the exact moment the structure became a pile of microscopic particles and 10 metre steel beams.

* In photos of the devastation there were virtually no large slabs of concrete or recognisable bits of stair case, washroom furniture, chairs, tables, carpet, light fittings etc. With the exception of the 10 metre steel beams, the towers and most of their contents were pulverised to microscopic powder. There has been reports that some computer hard drives were salvaged and information about insider trading activity recovered.

* The rubble at Ground Zero consisted of pieces of the steel structure and light aluminium cladding, unrecognisable bits of metal, pieces of paper and dust the consistency similar to baking powder. This pulverised powder covered the city. The number of people with medical problems linked to the WTC dust cloud surpasses 15000. The dust contained lead from 50 000 computers, radioactive materials from smoke alarms, toxic metals from light fitting along with powered asbestos and concrete.

* During the clear up there were many reports of “molten” steel being uncovered days after the collapse. A phenomena never explained.

* Of those killed on the day only around 1500 have been identified from the almost 20 000 “remains” (bits of human bodies) recovered. Less than 300 intact bodies were found. As with everything else, (except the 10 metre steel sections) the people were “vaporised” as the medical examiner put it and may never be identified. It takes 2 hours at around 1500 degrees F to cremate a body.

Steel, glass and kerosine

The fundamental laws of physics concerning the temperatures at which kerosine and office furniture burn and steel melts (or “snaps” into 10 metre lengths) or glass breaks, are challenged by the official 9.11 Commission Report. There is a mountain of verifiable witness statements and film evidence as to the limited degree of fire in the buildings. Examine the glass facing on the towers, mainly perfectly intact until the collapse. In this area we are told the heat was so intense it caused the steel columns to “give way”. Voice recordings have been released from Fire Chief Palmer who reached the impact area around the 78th floor of the South Tower just prior to collapse. Minor fires are reported. The steel skeleton, no matter how exposed, could not have been heated to damaging temperatures by the post impact fires.

9/11 Commission Report

The official investigation into the demolition of the towers and building 7 is a whitewash. Key witnesses were not called. Forensic evidence is not investigated nor is US complicity with Islamic extremists. It is clear that the impact of the planes and fires were not the cause of the collapse. These are the only steel framed buildings ever to collapse into a pile of 10 metre section steel beams and microscopic dust clouds due to fire or earthquake. The collapse of Building 7 is unexplained in the original 911 report.

New Science ?

There is a desperate need for socially responsible journalists to explain how fundamental laws of physics have changed with the events of September 11th. A mountain of questions from eminent professional observers remain unanswered. Innumerable statements from relevant parties have not been addressed including one from the lead structural engineer of the construction of the towers; quoted in The Bridge Vol. 32 No.1 Spring 2002

“The events of September 11, however, are not well understood by me
. . . and perhaps cannot really be understood by anyone.”
Leslie E. Robertson.

Psycho ops - Engineering compliance

Above all considerations, in the dangerous age of a terrorist “war without end”, peak oil, global warming, and galloping environmental despoliation, as modern capitalism morphs into corporatism - the crucial issue that needs addressing is the mass brainwashing of tens of millions of people who saw the towers collapse in about 12 seconds, who have accepted the Pentagon and Flight 93 story line and now remain hypnotised and silent even after the revelations of spin and lies over WMD and the invasion of Afghanistan and Iraq. (In between we’ve had Anthrax, Patriot 1 and 2, Guantanamo, corporate corruption in the rape of Iraqi linked to the White House, and a manipulated civil war in Iraq on the pattern taught at School of the Americas in the 80’s to El Salvadorian, Chilean, Bolivian etc. death squads)

Amongst the millions that watched events unfold are physicists, mathematicians, engineers, architects, journalists and many others educated to grasp Galileo’s theory of free fall and with comprehension of the strength of steel, concrete and glass - knowing how these materials behave in the real world. And yet, from the establishment media and scientific communities a virtual deafening silence. The establishment media have presented the managed message from the White House to extraordinary effect.


I’m just an ordinary citizen concerned for justice and future generations.
I’m not a scientist. I’m simply seeking a common sense explanation where there has been none not even from the lead structural engineers for the towers.
