Some conspiracy theorists are puzzled about why the WTC towers fell at almost free-fall speed on Sept. 11, 2001. They suppose that the speed of collapse is evidence that something or someone must have destroyed the structural integrity of the undamaged lower part of each tower.

After all, they reason, "only the upper floors of the building were damaged, so why did the lower

"NIST, in their draft report, initially denied that WTC7 entered free-fall for any period of time. It was through the work of David Chandler that NIST was obligated to correct their inaccurate assumptions."

Really? Where in the NIST draft report did they say free fall did not occur? Had you actually read it you would have seen that they were measuring the overall collapse in

I've just been watching 911 conspiracy files by BBC, that's a great document I've never heard of and that hasn't been played in France my country, maybe because medias are afraid that they could spread the myth instead of debunking it.
Thanks for posting this.

After looking into the thermite paper, I find it to be a joke. They find evidence of elemental aluminum and iron oxide and then conclude that it is super thermite. Really? So nothing else could have those compounds in them? Actually there is. All those materials in that paper would be found in the materials used for the WTC. The same material was found in the primer paint used on the steel which

I am sorry but what I have seen is a lot of pseudo-science and the repetition of myths.

That is fine if the family members have questions and they want another investigation. But what I have found is that they are not looking for answers but what they want to be the answer. The 911 commission report was a report to answer how and why it happened and after reading it, I feel it did a

Gee, its unfortunate you guys should come out with this considering how credible and helpful your information on global warming and peak oil is.

The 911 truth movement's goal is a new independent investigation into what happened on the events of 911. Many of the family members of victims have unanswered questions about the events of that day. An investigation was not started

Official sources only not 911 Truther sites.

But you are not correcting people. You are using it to make people think that is the official argument so they will doubt it. You fail to let people know the timing of these comments and act like everyone is saying these things. It is getting old.

Hyman Brown - I could not find that quote. Here is the quote of I found:

Actually no it was the 911 Truth movement who repeatedly tried to state that fire cannot melt steel when no structual engineer talking about the the towers collapsing ever made this claim.

I notice you provide no sources for your claims. The only place online I found regarding Lee Hamilton making these comments is post by you. Not to mention Lee Hamilton is an attorney and not a

"Their claims are just ignorant: "the WTC fires were not hot enough to melt steel"

It was initially the defenders of the government's story who claimed that the fires melted the steel. Even as late as 2006, Lee Hamilton 9/11 Co-Chair, claimed that the jet-fuel fires melted the steel. Since this delusion is still widespread it us up to the 9/11 Truth Movement to
