Dear Kath, I think that the "Bushwackers" are sleazy enough to do something like 9-11, but I find the scenario of an administration-orchestrated 9-11 improbable to the point of absurdity. We went through the physics of the collapsing building in great detail, if you'll recall and I showed how the inelasticity of the building would offer little if any resistance to the downward energy of nine stories and the accumulated rubble and momentum of more. Once the collapse is started, the "crumple zone" is a "crumble zone". The building is designed to sway horizontally but to be rigid vertically. Like a piece of China, once it breaks, it shatters. The exploding airplane fuel melts the reinforcing rods in a significant section, allowing an uninhibited head-start. From then on, the vertical rebar carries the shock down into the next parts and crumbles them leaving nothing holding up these nine stories of mass. Note that what got to the ground was mostly fine dust. If it had been exploded, it would have flown horizontally in large chunks, not sunk in a huge pile of dust. The ensuing investigation would have found the residue of the C4 or whatever explosive was used as well. This could NOT have been covered up. Forensics were used and they did not find evidence to substantiate your claims. Believe me, they could not have all been bought off; not with the feelings of the American people after this incident running so high. The Bushwackers DID orchestrate the invasion of Kuwait and the ensuing "Desert Shield" and "Desert Storm"; that is fairly clear through transcripts of their ambassador's (April Glaspie's) meeting with the Iraqi leader just prior to the Kuwait invasion, but only by lying to Saddam Hussein who obligingly believed that they were neutral in the dispute. A conspiracy involving enough people to destroy two buildings timed in just the right sequence to correspond to the arrival of two airplanes and at the exact points of impact is improbable to the point of absurdity. Bush Jr couldn't have pulled it off at the right time in the right place WITHOUT secrecy. To pull 1 let alone 2 such demolitions synchronized with crashing aircraft isn't a scenario ANYONE would bet their life and political future on. Remember, if caught or snitched on, the Pres. goes to jail for murder. Not a good idea. I believe Roosevelt knew about the Pearl Harbor invasion beforehand and chose not to alert his troops. This is different than sending secret demolition teams into an American building to coordinate a collapse with the actual arrival of two airplanes hijacked by terrorists. I studied engineering in college for 3-1/2 years. I also have considerable experience in concrete work. I'm not ignorant. I also studied probabilities in college. For a sitting President to bet his life on such an absurdly improbable scenario is ridiculous. Additionally, I saw the tape of his session with the schoolchildren in Florida right after being informed of the incident. He wasn't prepared and looked stupid and unpresidential for quite a while. If he had known about this and orchestrated it, he would not have been caught unprepared on tape when informed about it. Finally, the person who DID orchestrate this, Muhammad Atta, DID have a Masters Degree in Architecture. He knew approximately what the plane would do to the building. It's like the machinations of Johnny Cochran for O. J. Simpson. Each link may be possible, but the entire chain of events involving a conspiracy becomes ludicrous. Love,
