Introduction

We all know the story of 9/11...

Four jetliners were hijacked by groups of Arabic
men armed with box cutters, who proceeded
to fly three of the four jets into the World Trade
Center Towers and the Pentagon. Subsequently the
Twin Towers, weakened by the impacts and fires,
collapsed into piles of rubble.

The FBI had compiled a list of hijackers within three
days, and it was so obvious that Osama bin Laden
had masterminded the operation from caves in
Afghanistan, that there was no need to seriously
investigate the crime or produce evidence.
The ‘retaliatory’ attack on the Taliban would
soon commence and the ongoing ‘War on Terror’
continues to this day.

Is this story true?

There are numerous red flags in the official story
that have a long series of highly improbable
coincidences. Questioning that story is an act of
responsible citizenship.

WTC 1

World Trade Center 1 (WTC 1), or the North Tower, was the first of the Twin
Towers to be hit by a plane on September 11th, and the last to be destroyed.

Jet Impact

At 8:46 AM, a jet, apparently AA Flight 11, slammed into the northeast face of
the Tower, creating an impact hole that extended from the 92nd to 98th floors.
Upon impact, fireballs and smoke emerged from the building.

Fires

For a few minutes after the impact, fires could be seen on several floors.
By the time the South Tower was hit, less fire was visible from the building's
north side, and the smoke had turned darker, apparently due to the
exhaustion of the jet fuel.

Smoke is a sign of an oxygen starved fire, meaning all the available fuel
sources have been burnt and the fire is going out.

Evacuation and Rescue

No one on the 91st floor or above is believed to have survived. The New York
Times estimated that 1,344 of the people in this zone perished.

The light northerly wind kept the north corner of the roof clear of smoke, and
helicopter rescues should have been possible. However, the Port Authority had
all the doors to the roof of the Tower locked shut, despite the fact that helicopters
rescued 28 people from the Tower's roof during the 1993 bombing.

Destruction

The ‘collapse’ happened at 10:28 AM. It began in an instant. Within about
two seconds, the exploding clouds of dust swallowed up the Tower's top.
Although no flames had been visible in the crash zone for some time,
a second after the collapse began, large orange flames bellowed out from
the collapse zone.

5

Most of the jet fuel was burnt up in the initial
fireball – essentially outside the building!

Soon after, the fires were almost all out
leaving just black smoke.

WTC 2

World Trade Center 2 (WTC 2), or the South Tower, was the second of the
Twin Towers hit by a plane on September 11th, and the first to be destroyed.

Jet Impact

At 9:03 AM, a jet, apparently United Airlines Flight 175, slammed into the
southwest face of the Tower, creating an impact hole that extended from the
78th to 84th floors. Upon impact, large fireballs emerged from the southwest,
southeast, and northeast faces, and east corner. Oddly, the fireball that emerged
from this Tower was several times larger than that of the first impact, yet both
planes were equally fuelled.

Fires

Unlike the North Tower, in which some fires were visible well above the impact
zone, the fires in the South Tower never spread beyond the impact zone.
By the time the building ‘collapsed’, the fires appeared to be suffocating, as no
flames were visible, and only black smoke was emerging.

Evacuation and Rescue

Since the elevators were still working fully between 8:46 and 9:03 AM,
evacuation proceeded more efficiently than in the North Tower. However,
there was confusion caused by announcements over the PA system
saying that the building was secure and people could return to their offices.
Heeding that advice might have cost the lives of hundreds of people.

When the jet hit the South Tower, it cut off several possible evacuation routes
from the 30 floors above the impact zone. It did leave at least one of the
stairwells passable, and the New York Times reported that at least 18 people
escaped through this stairwell. Most people above the crash zone were not
aware of this escape route, and at least 200 climbed toward the roof in hopes
of being rescued there, only to find the doors to the roof locked.

Destruction

The South Tower began its precipitous ‘collapse’ at 9:59 AM. In the same fashion
as WTC 1, the Tower exploded in huge, quickly forming dust clouds. Both Towers
came to the ground in less than 15 seconds, or near the speed of gravity.

7

The WTC buildings were designed
with aircraft impact crashes in mind
(planes lost in the fog for example).

They were designed to withstand an
impact of the largest jet of its time
(a 707) fully loaded and fully fuelled.

The planes that hit the Towers were not
fully loaded nor fully fuelled and the
impacts were no more of a blow to the
overall structure than a continuous
battering of hurricane winds.

"I believe the WTC buildings could withstand multiple impacts of jet airliners because the structure of the buildings is like the netting on a screen door. This intense grid. Puncturing the screen netting with a pencil has no effect to the overall structure." Frank DeMartini – Architect

Fires

Any boy scout will tell you black
smoke is a sign of an oxygen-starved
fire, meaning all the available fuel
sources (desks, chairs, cabinets,
drapes, etc) have been burnt leaving
a smouldering burn.

11

We were told the fires were so hot they
melted the structural steel columns and
beams causing the failure and collapse
of the Towers.

What we saw was flames coming out
of a few floors for less than 20 minutes
followed by 90 minutes of smoke.

If the steel was so hot, then why is this
trapped woman able to hold onto a
column with her bare hands right at
the crash zone?

The thick black toxic smoke was unbreathable, forcing people to smash windows to get oxygen, and many to jump to their deaths.

12

Difficult questions for NIST

The National Institute for Standards
and Technology (NIST), in charge of
examining the possible cause of the
collapse of the WTC Towers, explained
this glowing yellow substance as:
"most probably molten aluminium
from the aircraft."

But molten aluminium looks like       
molten aluminum – it’s silver in colour,
not glowing bright yellow.

14

Can fire melt steel?

Note: The WTC fires are some 1550° F
(860° C) lower than the temperature
required to melt steel, yet molten steel
was observed at Ground Zero.

Temperatures of the WTC fires could
not melt steel.

What could cause molten steel at the
base of Ground Zero?

16

17

Examples of other building fires

A huge inferno in the Windsor Building,
Madrid, burns for 24 hours but the steel
frame structure does not collapse.

The Hotel Mandarin, Beijing, was a     
huge inferno encompassing the
entire building. Yet the steel frame
structure does not collapse.

Compare these examples to the fires
and 90 minutes of smoke from the
Twin Towers and the small fires in WTC 7
(see page 56).

18

The destruction

You can see the top section of WTC 2 tilt as it
falls. If this section continued to fall over at
this angle would you not expect it to fall to
the ground in one intact block crashing in a
pile at the base of the Tower?

Instead it disintegrated into dust in mid-air
before it even reached the ground.

What could cause this?

20

21

No 'pancake collapse' here!

Note the similarities between a nuclear
explosion and the 'collapse' of the WTC
Towers. Huge upward and outward
arching streamers of pulverised material
have the same appearance.

A volcanic eruption forms the same
pyroclastic cloud appearance as that
of the 'collapsing' WTC Towers.

The mushroom-like canopy exhibited in
both WTC Tower collapses have the
geometry of explosion, not gravitational
collapse.

An incredible amount of energy is required
to generate this – far greater than anything
caused by burning jet fuel.

23

Freefall physics

Put simply, 'freefall' is the speed of gravity.
If one was to stand on top of the WTC and
drop a bowling ball, the buildings fell at
nearly the same speed as the ball!.

Answer: B

'B' should hit the ground first because there is nothing
but air to slow it down. Unlike 'A' which has 80,000 tons of
structural steel below it to slow its momentum down.

But both Twin Towers fell to the ground at near freefall
speed. That means there was NO resistance in the lower
floors as the top floors came down. 80,000 tons of
structural steel would have to be instantly removed floor
by floor all the way down in order for this to happen.

A 'pancake' collapse, as we were told, would not happen
at the speed of gravity. In fact, it would slow down and
eventually stop. It certainly wouldn’t fall through the path
of greatest resistance – 80,000 tons of steel.

25

Squibs

Definition: A squib is a miniature explosive
device used in a wide range of industries,
from special effects to military applications.

Squibs can be used for shattering or
propelling a variety of materials.

A squib generally consists of a small tube
filled with an explosive substance, with a
detonator running through the length of
its core, similar to a stick of dynamite.
Also similar to dynamite, the detonator
can be a slow-burning fuse, or as is more
common today, a wire connected to a
remote electronic trigger.

The effects of squibs are seen as violent
ejections of pulverised concrete below the
demolition wave clearly seen in both WTC 1
and WTC 2 'collapses'.

26

Pyroclastic surge

A pyroclastic surge is a fluidised mass of
pulverised material which is ejected during
volcanic eruptions or nuclear explosions.

Surges can travel great distances and are
enormously destructive because of their
massive kinetic energy.


The intense heat and energy required to
push all this pulverised building material
at 80 km/h is equivalent to that of a
volcanic eruption.

Far greater heat would have been
required than that of the WTC fires
(which were essentially out at the time
of the buildings' collapse).

28

Controlled demolition

In a controlled demolition belts of explosives
go off in a timed sequence floor by floor to
bring a building down. Signs of this are
outward explosions in bands around the
building seconds before the building collapse.

Note the similarities in these two pictures.   

Food for thought What insurance company would insure buildings that do this as a result of fire? And who would be prepared to work in a building that collapses when it is on fire? Not one steel frame building has ever collapsed due to fire, yet on 9/11 three buildings collapsed, including WTC 7, which was not hit by an aeroplane.

30

The above images show what buildings
look like after a structural failure or
natural disaster. Note they remain largely
intact, and fall over – they don’t fall
straight down through the path of
greatest resistance (in the WTC’s case
80,000 tons of structural steel) and the
concrete is not pulverised to dust.

32

Now look at the WTC 'collapsing'.
Ask yourself, does this look like a
'pancake collapse' (due to fire)?

Or something much more powerful?

33

Example

When a building is brought down under controlled demolition, charges are placed on each column on an angle to control the way the building falls.

Note the angles of the cut steel on these
core structure columns at the base of
Ground Zero.

30

Basement explosions!

As firefighters entered the first Tower
to be hit they described the lobby as:
"It was as though the plane hit the lobby!"

Basement explosions destroyed the
parking garage and lobby. Marble
panels weighing hundreds of kilos
were blown off the walls. Smoke filled
the lower floors as people tried to
get out. People in the basement levels
were killed or severely injured.

Marble panels gone!

36

With any controlled demolition, the
basement is always blown out first to
give the falling material somewhere to go.

The debris from the WTC Towers was
only about 1 story deep at ground level –
the bulk of the material filled the
basement levels.

39

There are plenty of witnesses that heard and survived
explosions going off in the buildings and basements
including WTC 7. Here are just a few...

William Rodriguez – The last person to leave the WTC 1 alive
	"I was in sub-basement B1 of the North Tower. Prior to any aeroplane impact I heard the sound of an explosion, the floor beneath my feet vibrated, the walls started cracking and everything started shaking. Seconds after the massive explosion below in the basement, I hear another explosion from way above, although I was unaware at the time, this was the airplane hitting the Tower, it occurred moments after the first explosion. Co-worker Felipe David stormed into the office with severe burns on his face and arms, yelling "explosion! explosion! explosion!"
"He was burned terribly. His injuries couldn’t have come from the airplane above, but only from a massive explosion below."

Anthony Saltalamacchia – WTC survivor
	"I was in my office in sub-basement B1 of the North Tower, approximately 1,100 feet below the airplane’s impact point at floors 93 to 98. I heard a massive explosion that I believed came from the Mechanical Room in a lower sub-basement. Then I heard a series of other explosions that sounded up on the above levels of the building. I then realised that there was something wrong and there was a major problem. About 15 people came running and screaming into our office. One man was wounded, his arms bleeding and skin was peeling off down to the flesh."
"The amount of explosions I heard from 8:46 AM until the time we got out was so many, at least ten. It sounded like multiple explosions, like different grenades being set off in the building. There was one major explosion, and then different explosions throughout that period of time until we got out."

Nano-Thermite

Thermite is a highly explosive substance
used by the military. It burns at 2500 °C
and can melt through steel in seconds.

DEFINITION: Super-thermites are generally developed for military
use, propellants, explosives, and pyrotechnics. Because of their
highly increased reaction rate, nano-sized thermitic materials are
being researched by the U.S. military with the aim of developing
new types of bombs that are several times more powerful than
conventional explosives. Nano-energetic materials can store higher
amounts of energy than conventional energetic materials and can
be used in innovative ways to tailor the release of this energy.
Thermobaric weapons are considered to be a promising application
of nano-energetic materials. Research into military applications of
nano-sized materials began in the early 1990s.

Physicist Steven Jones found evidence of thermite in abundance in WTC dust samples collected from several locations. "NIST failed to look for it, but we found it, and it was not difficult to find!"

43

Evidence of Nano-Thermite

Tiny chips of partially reacted, highly
engineered Nano-Thermite was found in
abundance in WTC dust samples discovered
by Physicist Steven Jones (and subsequently
more scientists after his findings).

NIST, the Commission hired to investigate
the collapse of the Towers, said they never
looked for explosive incendiaries because,
quote "We didn’t have to. It was the impact
of the planes and fires that caused the
Towers collapse".

How can you find what you are not
looking for?

Incidentally, Nano-Thermite does NOT
come from caves in Afghanistan!

45

The Dust

Pulverised concrete and building
materials from the WTC Towers drifted
down as super fine dust, inches thick,
blanketing New York City.

People who inhaled this dust are today
suffering from lung problems and cancer.
The rescue dogs only lived for a short
time after 9/11.

Do you think a pancake collapse due to
office fires (that were virtually out at the
time of collapse) could cause this kind
of damage?

46

Ground Zero

Note the total dismemberment of
steel columns and beams – no sign of
'pancaked' floors. All the concrete has
been pulverised to dust.

This is what has become known as the 'meteorite'. It’s a solid block of
melted and distorted metal and concrete. Architects and Engineers
have said they have never seen this kind of deformation before.

49

Ground Zero inferno

Thermite burns just as well under water
because it creates its own oxygen source.
This would explain why it took around
100 days to put out all the fires, even
after Ground Zero was swamped in water.

Fire crews and USAR teams had to
change their boots daily because the
rubber soles just melted!

Here we see thermal imaging taken from space by NASA of the WTC area on September 16, 2001. Orange/red areas are thermal hot spots in the hundreds of degrees. Note the same orange glow where WTC 7 was (marked A and B). No burning jet fuel here!

WTC 7

Building 7 (also known as WTC 7) was a
47-story skyscraper that stood a block
away from the rest of the World Trade
Center complex.

It was the 3rd building to fall on 9/11!

WTC 7 has been shrouded in secrecy.

The 9/11 Commission refused to investigate the collapse of this building and did not mention it in their report. Only 5% of Americans know it even fell as controlled media refused to mention it past the day of 9/11.

55

...yet WTC 7 falls to the ground in under
seven seconds (almost at the speed of
gravity) at 5:20 PM on 9/11. That’s nearly
7 hours after the WTC 1 and 2 collapses.

Note the classic demolition ’v–crimp' on the roofline.

It fell in true demolition style – straight
down into its footprint. Flashes of light
could be seen in windows and loud
explosions were going off before and
during its collapse.

57

In under seven seconds WTC 7 was
transformed from a 47 story skyscraper
to a crumpled rubble pile.
Remember, not one steel frame building
has ever collapsed due to fire, until 9/11!

Kevin McPadden – Witness to WTC 7 'collapse'
	Kevin McPadden, former Air Force Special Operations for Search and Rescue expert, traveled to Ground Zero and spent the next four days searching through the rubble and nearby buildings for survivors. McFadden was in the area of WTC 7 prior to its 'collapse' trying to glean information from Red Cross officials, McPadden and other first responders were told nothing while one official, shortly after talking to firemen, held his hand over his radio
and told them to "just sit tight" and "calm down" before admitting "they’re thinking about bringing the building down." "He took his hand off for the last three seconds of it – and you hear three, two, one," said McPadden, adding that the official then gave a heartfelt look and told the first responders, "just run for your life." McPadden got the impression that the Red Cross official had been ordered not to give the first responders a warning that the building was coming down. "And you heard – boom, boom, boom," said McPadden, describing the sound of bombs tearing down the building.

He also highlighted the fact that "vicious security" was quickly set up around certain areas of Ground Zero and that people were barred from accessing certain areas for no reason and also had their cameras confiscated. When McPadden attempted to report that secondary explosions were heard by numerous people, he was harshly ordered to "shut up" and "don’t repeat it" by superiors.

An interview with Barry Jennings –
last man out alive of WTC 7

Barry Jennings – WTC 7 survivor
	"I was stuck on the 8th floor of WTC 7 for many hours, during which time I heard numerous explosions below. Some of the blasts came before the World Trade Centers collapsed, while others came after the Towers had fallen. I was eventually saved by 10 New York City firefighters. We made it down to the
lobby which was completely obliterated, with rubble and even dead bodies. One firefighter kept saying, "Don’t look down." I kept saying, "Why?". We were stepping over dead people!" Barry was exited from WTC 7 through a hole in the wall. A firefighter then told him "You have to run". I said, "I can’t, my knees are swollen". He said "You’ll have to get on your knees and crawl then, because we have reports of more explosions." NOTE: In 2008 Barry Jennings died mysteriously. His death occurred only days before the release of NIST’s Report on the Collapse of WTC Towers.

What happened to
all the steel?

Immediately after 9/11 the removal and
destruction of the steel commenced
before proper analysis of the steel could
be undertaken.

The steel was transported by convoys of
trucks to steel works to be melted down.

From thousands of tons of steel, less than
200 pieces have been saved. These are held
under tight security in a disused hangar at
JFK airport.

The USS New York frigate and thousands
of 9/11 remembrance badges were made
from WTC steel.

64

The Pentagon strike

The Pentagon was struck at a portion of the building’s west
block, which was undergoing an extensive renovation.
Despite the interesting implications of this fact, controversy has
spawned by the lack of public evidence about the Pentagon
attack, and mysteries surrounding the fate of Flight 77, the
Boeing 757 that’s supposed to have hit the Pentagon.

Absent from the public record are photographs or videos of
anything like a 757 approaching the Pentagon. Photographs
taken immediately after the crash show that neither large
pieces nor significant quantities of wreckage remained outside
the building. The idea that nearly all the remains of the 80-ton
aircraft disappeared into the building strikes many people as
problematic because the punctured walls of the initial damage
to the building do not include regions where the ends of the
wings and the vertical tail section would have impacted, nor do
they show signs of scoring by these parts.

To some observers, the lack of obvious crash debris outside the
building following the attack, the lack of an impact impression
closely matching the profile of a 757, and the suppression of
videos and photographs that may have shown the approach of
the attack plane and its remains inside the building were red
flags indicating that the attack involved some entirely different
type of aircraft, or no aircraft at all!.

67

A Pentagon drill simulates
'terrorist' scenarios

In separate interviews with
George Bush and US Secretary of
State Condoleezza Rice both said:

"No one in their wildest dreams would
think anyone could hijack passenger
aircraft and use them as missiles to attack
key buildings within the United States."

But clearly this exercise conducted in the
months prior to 9/11 does exactly that!

68

How many other Pentagon cameras
captured the attack?

There are numerous cameras that would have
captured an aircraft approaching and crashing into
the side of the building. The images captured from
these cameras have all been seized.

Red flags Why is the timestamp on the images incorrect?

Frames 1 & 2 show a white vapor trail. 757’s do not create white vapor trails at ground level!?

71

Interviews with experienced pilots have
said the alleged aircraft manoeuvre
flying at 500 mph just feet from the
ground then slamming into the side of
the building with such precision would
be near impossible, especially for
amateur pilots (hijackers) who could
not even land a Cessna. (See page 78)

A Boeing 757 is simply not designed to fly so fast so close to the ground –
it simply can’t do it. This is because of the tremendous lift created under
this large plane going so fast. Not to mention there is an effect called
"downwash", where the plane creates a huge suction under it as it flies.
This would have picked up everything that was under a 757 and thrown
it in all directions – for instance cable spools, as seen in the pictures
above and centre left, just in front of the crash zone.

This basically demolishes the official Pentagon story.

73

More red flags

The portion of the Pentagon struck was
sparsely occupied, nearing completion of
renovation. Why would an Islamic terrorist
perform a difficult manoeuvre to strike
the portion of the building that would
cause the fewest fatalities?

Flight path taken according to the official story.

Note the direction of the alleged approach path. Why would an amateur pilot pass up a more direct approach to hit the Pentagon, instead choosing a complicated circular manoeuvre to hit the only section of the building that was under renovation and sparsely occupied? And all of this with very little approach distance and without touching the ground.

75

Disturbing the crime scene and
removal of evidence

In any major crime scene, all evidence
must be left alone until a proper
investigation is undertaken.

Yet at the Pentagon, every fragment of
debris is picked up and seized before
any proper analysis or investigation
could take place.

Note, no aircraft black box was found,
but they did 'find' a plastic student ID
card from one of the alleged hijackers
in near perfect condition!

76

A profile on Hani Hanjour

Hani Hanjour was one of the five alleged hijackers and pilot of Flight 77 that struck the Pentagon with unbelievable precision. Federal Aviation Administration records show Hanjour obtained a commercial pilot’s license in April 1999, but how and where he did so remains a lingering question that FAA officials refuse to discuss. Flight Academy staff members characterised Mr Hanjour as polite and very quiet. But most of all, the former

employee said, they considered him a very bad pilot. "I’m still to this day amazed that he could have flown into the Pentagon," the former employee said. "He could not fly at all." However, when Baxter and fellow instructor Ben Conner took the slender, soft-spoken Hanjour on three test runs during the second week of August, they found he had trouble controlling and landing the single-engine Cessna. Even though Hanjour showed a federal pilot’s license and a log book cataloging 600 hours of flying experience, chief flight instructor Marcel Bernard declined to rent him a plane without more lessons. In the spring of 2000, Hanjour had asked to enroll in the CRM Airline Training Center in Scottsdale, Arizona, for advanced training, said the center’s attorney, Gerald Chilton. Hanjour had attended the school for three months in late 1996 and again in December 1997 but never finished coursework for a license to fly a single-engine aircraft, Chilton said. When Hanjour reapplied to the Center for a third time, "We declined to provide training to him because we didn’t think he was a good enough student when he was there in 1996 and 1997" Chilton said.

78

Flight 93

United Airlines Flight 93 was the 4th
alleged aircraft to be hijacked on 9/11.
The official media story claims it was
heading for the White House, but after
passengers struggled to overpower the
hijackers the plane was flown erratically
ending in a vertical nose dive crashing in
Shanksville, Pennsylvania.

81

Jet-crash-proof bandana!

The official media story claims Flight 93 nose dived and crashed into
a crater 10 feet deep, leaving no recognisable debris beyond scraps of
charred aluminum. Yet the bandana and passport miraculously survived
the crash without so much as a blemish.

83

Cell phone calls?

Were cell phone calls from the hijacked planes
possible in 2001?

Many cell phone calls were allegedly made from passengers on
Flight 93 to family and loved ones. A Hollywood movie was even
created based on the story of Flight 93 and the cell phone calls
made. But the truth of these phone calls having even been made
is highly improbable.

In December 2004 the U.S. Federal Communications Commission
(FCC) held hearings to consider lifting the ban on the use of cell
phones in aircraft.

The FCC banned in-flight use because cell phones can
communicate with more than one cell tower when in the air.
This could lead to disruption of service for cell phones on the
ground, which uses only one tower at a time.

The Commission heard testimony from industry experts that
cell phone calls at higher altitudes, using current technology,
was not possible.

But the Commission heard evidence that new cell phone
technology had advanced far enough in recent years to
minimize such disruption of ground service.

The new Air New Zealand A320 with cellular network capability came into service in February 2011. Prior to this latest technology it was not possible to make cell phone calls at high altitudes such as the alleged calls from Flight 93.

84

How much money was spent
on investigating the collapse
of the WTC Towers?
