But I'm sure that's a fake too, right.. the government just brought in wheelbarrows of broken parts at night and strategically placed them all around so that it would only look a little bit like a plane crashed there. :roll: If the government really wanted to plant evidence to make it look like a plane had hit there when it hadn't, don't you think they could and would have picked more recognizable and convincing parts??
[QUOTE=chunky;783138]If you look at the area where the 2 planes hit the twin towers the entry point has clearly shows the area where the wings went into the building, not just a round hole. At the Pentagon all I see is a round hole. Did the wings fold up into the undercarriage? [QUOTE=chunky;783272]The Wings Folded In. Now I'm really scared of flying.

Guess what, that is not the entry hole on the outer wall, but AN EXIT HOLE FROM SOME OF THE DEBRIS BETWEEN THE INNER C AND D RINGS of the Pentagon.[/SIZE][SIZE="3"] You can't conclude much about the state of the wings at the initial impact from it.[/SIZE][/COLOR][/B]
It seems that everyone assumes that this has something to do with the entry hole, and it DOESN'T. The original entry on the outer ring isn't so clearly visible because the entire facade of the building collapsed about 20 minutes after the initial impact (yeah I know, no doubt part of the "conspiracy", huh?). By the time the plane got there, it was a hurtling mass of debris with mainly the mass of objects within the long tube of the plane still determining the momentum and direction of the debris traveling inward. [B][COLOR="red"]The wings also serve as gas tanks; they are basically relatively thin aluminum alloys filled with liquid fuel that EXPLODED; by the time you're at the inner rings, those wings are long gone. [/COLOR][/B] The best theory is that this was a hole caused by a big chunk of the landing gear system that separated from the plane (don't think anyone can ever prove it, though).
[SIZE="3"][B][COLOR="Red"]2.Structural engineers at Purdue University developed a very complex computerized physics simulation that concluded that the physical aftermath is actually quite within the real of reality. [/COLOR][/B][/SIZE]
It's the most advanced simulation of it that I know of, taking all characteristics possible into account (characteristics/ dimensions of aircraft, composition of building, speed/altitude/attitude of the aircraft, etc. [url]http://www.purdue.edu/UNS/html4ever/020910.Sozen.Pentagon.html[/url] [url]http://wiki.cs.purdue.edu/cgvlab/doku.php?id=projects:visualization_large-scale_simulations[/url] [url]http://www.purdue.edu/UNS/html4ever/2006/060911.Sozen.WTC.html[/url] (they also did this for WTC a few years ago) [quote]The model indicates the most critical effects were from the mass moving at high velocity.
[B]"At that speed, the plane itself is like a sausage skin," Sozen said. "It doesn't have much strength and virtually crumbles on impact."[/B]
But the combined mass of everything inside the plane – particularly the large amount of fuel onboard – can be likened to a huge river crashing into the building.[/quote]
[SIZE="3"][B][COLOR="Red"]3. Even with regard to the entry hole (if you could still clearly see it), you can't easily compare the WTC impact to the Pentagon - WTC had the steel columns towards the middle core of the building, but the Pentagon was REINFORCED STEEL CONCRETE ON THE OUTSIDE = MUCH TOUGHER than the WTC outer wall.[/COLOR][/B][/SIZE]
Purdue took this into account: [quote]The simulation deals specifically with steel-reinforced concrete buildings, as opposed to skyscrapers like the World Trade Center's twin towers, in which structural steel provided the required strength and stiffness. Reinforced concrete is inherently fire resistant, unlike structural steel, which is vulnerable to fire and must undergo special fireproofing.
"Because the structural skeleton of the Pentagon had a high level of toughness, it was able to absorb much of the kinetic energy from the impact," said Christoph M. Hoffmann, a professor in the Department of Computer Sciences and at Purdue's Computing Research Institute.[/quote]
And there are plenty of other places online where you can read about the structure and composition of the Pentagon (what's not classified, of course).
[B][COLOR="Red"][SIZE="3"]4. At any rate, other documented cases exist where the entry hole of an aircraft hitting a building wasn't as big as the wings for a variety of reasons, and visuals of the entry damage shows that there was damage caused by the wings - but since they are basically thin aluminum over huge fuel tanks, they promptly exploded.[/SIZE][/COLOR][/B] [url]http://users.erols.com/igoddard/pentagon.htm[/url]

Is the roof of the Pentagon is still intact in this photo? Is that fire truck 61 in the photo?
Re: you know what's astonishing?
look what this comes down to is either you believe that some guys in a cave got NORAD to stand down and scrambled your fighters all over the country and allowed 4 planes to get hijacked with a 75% success rate of hitting WTC 1, 2 and the Pentagon. As well as turned off over 20 cameras that would have caught the plane hitting the pentagon. As well as make building 7 fall down for no apparent reason into its own footprint.
Or you believe that there was more to it and want a new investigation. Miro you always come back with gov't documents and we always come back with;
Independant interviews saying otherwise Scientific fact that Thermite or thermate was used Secrecy over the Pentagon cameras that they won't release Donald rumsfeld admitting they shot down United 93 The owner of Building 7 saying to pull it Firefighters in the buildings saying there were bombs in the buildings
Nobody even talks about United 93

I mean what a strange day,
3 buildings for the first time ever fell from fire.
The Pentagon got hit(Who would have thought that).
The Pentagon plane was incinerated, as well as the black boxes in the WTC's, but Hani Hanjour's passport survived the explosion. Oh not to mention that Hani couldn't fly a plane. His instructor coulsn't believe that Hani could do those maneuvers because he was horrible.
New Investigation for sure!!

[B]1. The pentagon is made up of a bunch of rings - [SIZE="5"]by the time you get to those inner rings, [U]THE[/U] [U]WINGS[/U] [U]NO[/U] [U]LONGER[/U] [U]EXIST[/U].

[B]2. And that's not the hole for the fuselage anyways[/B], because it didn't exist by that time (was already just a hurtling mass of debris). No one can be exactly 100% sure of every detail of circumstance that created that hole, because it wasn't documentable and a lot of the evidence was burning. The most accepted explanation is that it was a portion of the landing gear apparatus that somehow managed to separate, not necessarily all of the debris of the aircraft.
[B]3. You're still ignoring the entire mountain of the rest of the evidence I posted up there.[/B] Look, I fully admit that I can't explain EVERY DETAIL of how this happened to you. I wasn't there, and even fully trained experts couldn't explain it to you because they weren't there and don't have perfect documentation.
But how much like a conspiracy theorist you are... You ignore or blithely dismiss the mass of evidence that clearly suggests an outcome that you don't like and pick at one or two things that can't be fully explained, and you assume that this is sufficient to refute that entire mountain of evidence.
I don't have much faith in your willingness or ability to weight the aggregate evidence and return a reasonable verdict. I'm convinced that there is NOTHING that anyone could ever show you that would convince you otherwise, short of bringing the pilots and passengers back from the dead and having the tell it to you, and miraculously recreating the plane out of the smoldering debris - and even then, you'd probably find SOME way to cling to your conspiracy. So go ahead and stick to your misinterpreted picture and your one or two facts that no one can explain 100% and believe that the earth is flat...

Re: you know what's astonishing?
[B]From facts we can all agree that: The length of the outside wall on any side of the pentagon is 921 feet. The wingspan of a 757 is 124 feet 10 inches. Now, everyone can agree that 921/125= roughly 7.4 right? [/B]
[IMG]http://files.abovetopsecret.com/images/ats/pentagon757/pentagon-757.jpg[/IMG]
Given the size of the 757, and the size of the Pentagon, the damaged area fits in peftectly with the dimensions of both the aircraft and the building.
Look at the hole in the building [IMG]http://files.abovetopsecret.com/images/ats/pentagon757/Pentagon3.jpg[/IMG][IMG]http://files.abovetopsecret.com/images/ats/pentagon757/small-757.jpg[/IMG]
Here is the hole in the building - it's been reported by at least a dozen different sources (including conspiracy theory sites) to be a 16 to 20 foot hole. That is really interesting when you take into account the fact that the 757 body is 12 ft 4in wide and 13 ft 6in high. (Here is where I was mistaken in the past, like so very many others I was led astray by the HEIGHT of the aircraft, which is actually the measurement from the wheels-down to the tip of the tail. That measurement is for aircraft hangar clearance, not the SIZE of the aircraft.) The 757 is basically a cylinder that is 13 feet across. It then should not be surprising that it would create something around a thirteen foot hole in the side of the building.
Look at the nose-on view of a 757 - you can see the body is slightly less than 1/3 the size of the height of the aircraft. The tail certainly isn't going to punch a hole through a reinforced concrete wall; that is why there is no 40 foot hole in the front of the Pentagon in any photos. A 40 foot object didn't hit it, a 13 foot object did.

...so what's the point? I'm convinced there is NOTHING I or anyone could EVER say or show you that could possibly convince you of anything other than what you believe right now.
It's a part of a wheel of a 757? "Well, that clearly must have been planted!"
The hole shows no wings? "Well, never mind that it's an exit hole for the debris and not an entry hole; we'll focus on the wing argument again."
There are people who saw it and DNA analysis from it and calls from passengers on the plane? "Well, they're all in on the conspiracy, you see!"

You still never got back to me on the Bush quote !
Re: you know what's astonishing?
[QUOTE=chunky;783328]You still never got back to me on the Bush quote ![/QUOTE] ok fine, since I said I would, I will make a final comment on that video.
I just watched the full 8 minutes or so of it. And I fully admit that I can't explain his behavior, his decision to stay in the classroom, or what or how he saw what he said he saw on TV before he entered the classroom. I can only [I]hypothesize[/I] that by saying "I saw the first plane hit", he did not [I]truly[/I] see it hit but only saw news headlines about the fact that a plane had hit and maybe an image of the smoke or something..but I really dunno.
I have to admit that when I received news of the first plane hitting, I thought that it must also have been a horrible accident, and I wasn't truly aware at that point of the size of the aircraft (details were not quite so clear early on). It wasn't until the second plane hit that everyone really freaked out and started to realize that this could be no accident - that's when the entire office stopped working for the day and I remember us all around the TVs in the breakrooms. So again, I dunno...just a hypothesis. I certainly would have expected him to have been better informed and take action more quickly. But then again, this is the same guy who presided over the government when Katrina happened.
But for all I know, maybe he really [I]is[/I] lying. It wouldn't be the first time Bush lied. I've long said from early on in this thread that a conspiracy theory I could see as plausible is that the government orchestrated for these planes to be flown into these different buildings. But that's not what you and everyone else in the conspiracy camp claims. In classic conspiracy mode, you take this one inconsistency and use it to create this elaborate, sensationalist setup that includes thermite, demolitions, no planes hitting at all, passenger planes hitting with bombs, cruise missiles, no planes hitting the Pentagon...all manner of crazy, fantastic stuff that takes [I]much bigger leaps of faith[/I] to believe than what the evidence suggests.
So I can't explain Bush's comments, and I won't defend him (I didn't like him as president). Hell, I can't explain a bunch of things and no one ever will be able to do so. But I'm not going to leap from there to all of these claims about no planes hitting the buildings, etc. when the aggregate evidence clearly suggests that they did.
Not that any of these comments of mine matter... I'm sure you'll keep believing whatever you've set in your mind. Same with runningman, who apparently hasn't been told that when big planes laden with gas slam into the ground at very high speed, they tend to explode and break into little pieces and burn instead of staying together in one piece. :lol:
But anyways... now I really am out of here. We could keep going on like this until the end of time and we all know how that it would be pointless. See ya in another (hopefully) unrelated thread!

^Right, the astonishment stems from the fact that internationals view these conspiracy theorists movies marketed as documentaries, and sweetened with dramatic music, etc, and next thing you know, they all buy into it as the only other logical explanation, even years after the fact.
My assumption was that most educated individuals would not only know better than to buy into youtube movies, and by now would have seen and heard enough logical and factual evidence that they would understand what physically took place on Sept. 11th.
The verdict is still out though on why/how/who...but not what.
Re: you know what's astonishing?
ah back to the educated people stuff. Whatever makes you feel better.

What do you mean by that??
Re: you know what's astonishing?
^You're right that statement was too broad. What I meant was that the conversations I have had with people from other countries like germany and italy is that to them it's common sense that 9/11 was setup by our gov't here in the states based on youtube movies they had seen. That just blew me away to hear, which is what prompted this thread to begin with.
RM, the individuals I had spoken with had or were working on their masters (equivalent to a Masters in the US.) Besides, you're obv someone that educates themselves before forming an opinion, why act surprised?
Re: you know what's astonishing?
[SIZE=3][B][COLOR=red]Two passengers on the plane - Rene May and Barbara Olsen - even called their family members telling them the plane had been hijacked.

Re: you know what's astonishing?
well you have to admit that the average European is much smarter then the average American. So for them to see it as common knowledge maybe they are on to something.
Re: you know what's astonishing?
there seems to be some confusion on here about what constitutes evidence and common sense.
now bare with my bad spelling and grammar.
the government report that is there(nist report just leads up to the start of the collapse, they don't try to explain collapse.)has no evidence to support it's theory at all.
they have even refused releasing their data on the models, so independent researchers could double check their findings.
this only is unheard of in the world of science.
Re: you know what's astonishing?
Guys, I have thought this over and I've come back to tell you that I have seen the light. What a fool I was.
[B]There were no planes on 9-11, no infernos, and no fallen buildings.[/B] What actually happened was that nefarious infiltrators with invisibility rays came and made the buildings disappear - and while they did that, they were simultaneously clever enough to [I]cloak[/I] the towers with a mirage impression of burning rubble. The buildings are actually still there, but they are invisible. If you go too close to the area, you will bonk your head against them (ouch! be careful!).
Why did they do this? My sources tell me that it was actually an effort to turn them into lookout towers for the enemy, so that they can observe us in secrecy.
Who is this nefarious foe? I'm not completely sure on that one, but my sources tell me that it was probably Mossad.
Rejoice with me, my bretheren conspiracy investigators! I was blind, but now I SEE the TRUTH. Thank you all for your poignant remarks, your keen insight, and your unparalleled and intelligent arguments. I am a changed man.
I have to go clean my tin foil hat now. You do not see me. These are not the droids you seek. We never had this conversation.
Re: you know what's astonishing?
See I knew he would come round:lol:
Re: you know what's astonishing?
apparently he had a great shit!!:lol:
Re: you know what's astonishing?
I did. It was a huge INFERNO of enlightenment. Unlike those 9-11 buildings, which CLEARLY were not!!! :x
Re: you know what's astonishing?
brothers and sisters, I have an idea! Let's start a Fellowship. It will be a Sacred Fellowship, called the Soothsaying Keepers of the Truth. We can wear cloaks. And rubber underwear. Runningman can be the leader since he already has some.
What say you??
Re: you know what's astonishing?
ahahahahaha, fecking classic
Re: you know what's astonishing?
You been spending time with Moloch the Owl in that Bohemian Grove Miro, its messing with your head:lol:
Re: you know what's astonishing?
^^ I have merely been enlightened, brother chunky.
Sometimes it is a heavy cross to bear.
Now I know what it is like to be the new Black Man.

mad because you just found out the government has no evidence to back up their theory?
it's ok, most people who support the governments version have not read the report, surely fox news would of told you right?;)

I am only mad that I have not sooner attained your enlightenment! No longer will I fall for those false video footage, photographs, and eyewitness accounts of fires, smoke, or explosions that day.
I mean, Really. WHO sees "infernos" in this picture?? I confess, in my former life, I might have looked at this picture said there was one - oh, how blind I was! But now I know that it was simply unseasonably warm there that day. It happens sometimes, especially in New York. Mark my words, friends: there is no "evidence" to back up the theory of any "infernos" here! [IMG]http://phiyakushi.files.wordpress.com/2009/06/wtc-9-11.jpg[/IMG]
Clearly, the government report shows that they are conspiring together with Mossad. HOORAY for the TRUTH! Brother yesme, I only hope that you will see fit to continue to "yes" me with your Wisdom!
Re: you know what's astonishing?
Slava then you would know that heat lasted only a few seconds. The building should have fallen right there. It couldn't have picked up heat after the Kerosene was burnt up.

I love smart asses. Are you trying to use sarcasm as your last blow because you have run out of science? Sarcasm is typically used at last resorts.

[QUOTE]Mark my words, friends: there is no "evidence" to back up the theory of any "infernos" here! [/QUOTE]
you are correct.
the steel nist recovered and tested showed NO inferno.
aka = you have NO evidence of an inferno.
nist CONFIRMS jet fuel would of burned up in the first 10-15 mins.
nist also admits combustable load was less then thought.
so they sent the steel out to get tested to see what it could sustain.
low and behold, the test came back saying " the columns even unfireproofed could of held twice as much(load) as they thought for OVER 2 hours(not the 1 hour it took to collapse).
so yeah, when government tests dont back up government theory it then becomes a hypothesis
but if you do have some evidence, i will be happy to look at it, please no web links to some "expert" stating, oh well it MUST of been that hot in there.
like most intelligent people i prefer to deal in facts.
like tests done on the wtc steel directly.
i'll be waiting for proof, and leave your sarcasm for some other guy, unless you dont want to be taken seriously.
