To Believe the Official 9/11 Myth
You Would have to Believe the Impossible.
To accept the official explaination for 9/11 you have to be willing to accept the following
unblieveable or impossible propositions: We are asked to believe that steel skyscrapers can collapse into
a pile of rubble, within their own footprint, at freefall speed due to a fire. Fire has never
in the history of archatecture caused a steel building to collapse yet we are asked
to believe that it happened three times in one day, and not once on any other day
in history.
Here are some of the many impossible things you would have to believe to accept the official myth:
Kerosene Can Melt Steel
Do this thought experiment: Take a nice big steel beam,
like one from the twin towers, say a box beam about 2ft by 3ft in cross section, 12ft long with
steel two inches thick. It's a big sucker but its just average for the core columns in the towers.
It weighs almost 1000lb per
foot of length. The beam described here would weigh over 5 tons and there were 47 of them
in the core of the towers.
Take as much kerosene as you like,(that's what jet fuel is)
put it in a vat or tub (or swimming pool for that matter) and light it afire. Now, just
try to melt, or even bend, that steel beam. I think you can see, it's not going to happen.
It doesn't matter how long you try, or how much kerosene you use, you're not going
to hurt that beam. And remember, the South tower burned only 56 minutes before it collapsed.
And yet the steel was rated by UL to withstand a 2000F fire for 6 hours.

Buildings can fall as fast through concrete as they do through air
This is absolute proof of controlled demolition based on a fundamental law of physics:
The Conservation of Energy.
Newton's law of gravity tells us exactly what to expect from falling bodies.
A falling object experiences
a constant acceleration, g, of 32ft/sec^2. We can calculate the time it would take for
an object to fall from the top of one of the 1350ft WTC towers. It is 9.2 seconds
and that is without accounting for wind resistance.
This is very close to the approximately 10 seconds it took for the towers to fall. So
the towers fell at essentially free fall speed.
Another fundamental law of physics is the conservation of energy and it applies to
falling bodies as well. An object as it
falls converts it's potential energy (due to it's height above ground) into
kinetic energy (speed). If that object has to use some of it's energy
for something else, like pushing air out of it's way, then there will be less energy
available as kinetic energy and so it will take a bit longer to
reach the ground.
In the "official" explanation of the collapse, the so-called "pancake theory" of
the collapse, the floor above gives way and crashes into the floor below it, which gives way
and together they fall on the next floor below, etc. So the falling floor must
use a considerable amount of it's energy to break
loose the floor below. In addition, to account for the observed dust
plumes, the crashing together of the floors has to
crush the concrete into a fine powder and that takes a substantial amount of
energy as well. All of this energy must be subtracted from the original potential
energy of the falling floor, which means there is much less energy available
as kinetic energy(speed) hence the floors must be falling much slower
than free fall.
The buildings fell at essentially free fall speed, which accounts for all the
gravitational potential energy available. And yet we know
each floor had to be wrenched loose from its moorings (requiring significant energy)
and we saw enormous plumes of pulverized concrete which takes great amounts of energy to
produce.
The Conservation of Energy Law forces us to conclude
that there had to be some additional source of energy such as explosives.
You can find a very good treatment of the topic including all the math at

NORAD was AWOL for an Hour and Twenty Minutes
The air defense system of the US, built over half a century at a cost of
over one trillion dollars, capable of defending against the USSR and tracking
hundreds of incoming planes and missiles, was not capable of finding
four hijacked passenger airliners making "U" turns in the sky for over an hour
and twenty minutes. Right.
Peace, Matt.
