OK, time for some math lessons----According to police, 10 to 20 thousand, thats a sloppy guesstimate in the first place. We'll use the high number anyway.

Three hundred million folks in the US of A. Twenty thousand protesters (less one Hanoi Jane)
Hummmmmmmmmm, little quick math in my head equals, 0.0007%. That's one in every 15 thousand. that protest should not even be news.
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Wake me when someone shows up.

fascistusa, j-whitman,

Here are 2 films that I found to be more persuassive than "Loose Change".

%u201CImprobable Collapse%u201D 9/11 WTC

Part 1

9/11 Press For Truth

http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=5589099104255077250

I am appreciative of the efforts of the "Loose Change" producers, but I found the film to be a little sloppy.

One thing that we know beyond a reasonable doubt, is that the "official" conspiracy theory is garbage.

Fascist,, I'm watching it now, I don't trust Isreal or Bush at all, but my first impression is it's bunk, but I'll keep an open mind.

The next person who says that they still think Muslims did 9/11 needs to be *** slapped.

Watch "Loose Change" on google video.

Bush/Cheney did 9/11 with the help of the Mossad/Israel.

WAKE UP!!!

Way,,, We agree, But you can't discount these buildings where built on the cheap & at least some lessons where learned..
. But, this is the land of opertunity & capitolism. We have the opertunity to keep building them on the cheap.

j-
I remember back in the 70's there were a LOT of Middle Eastern "students' at the small university in the town where I live; I haven't heard anyone speak on the educations of the terrorists who attacked the towers, but it wouldn't suprise me to learn they were engineering students, who learned about structural dynamics i.e., how much weight can be supported for how long under circumstances such as were seen on 9-11. I believe the terrorists knew exactly where to hit the buildings in order to maximize the terror they delivered.

Way,, We keep building houses by the thousands on fault lines, fire & flood zones & pay little attention to building fire stations for those same thousands --- We are an accident looking for a place to happen,, for profit.

Are you fed up with the mass-murderous, torture loving, Constitution wrecking, blood and treasure wasting, Bush League?

j-, I'm not saying that there was not collusion w/the terrorists by the present administration; I have NO PROOF of it, however, IT wouldn't suprise me to learn of it. I DON'T for a moment believe the theory that explosives were placed strategically throughout BOTH TOWERS... I SAW THE JETS, I can accept that THEY ALONE provided enough damage to bring the towers down. That's all.

Again I see people posting what their personal "beliefs" on what should be done. Things such as "America, Love it or Leave it" type statements. You that are so critical of people speaking whats on their minds, are the FIRST to scream about LOSING rights as according to the Constitution. There is NO proof of which religion is right or wrong, which political party is right or wrong, who has or hasn't got ALL the answers, you will keep fighting until there is NOTHING left of YOURSELVES. This is what corporate america WANTS of you. Create, orchestrate, manipulate, form, mold, shape, any kind of construct LIE that fits their needs. We are all products of INGRAINED BEHAVIORS & ORGANIZED RELIGIOUS DOCTRINES designed for this very purpose. If one does not believe HOW I believe, what WORTH is that person? If a person has different color skin than me, how can he or she be as equal as I am? This is what we are taught, from Kindergarten to the day we DIE. We are products of indiscriminate manipulative subjective structured fears, WHAT IF...you don't do this or that? All your life is a WHAT IF Greek Performance. The media is structured to do this, how do you think the Nazi's gained the power they had? Wake up and start questioning the authorities that be.

OK. Little science experiment for you "true believers".

1) Stack up several tables on each other.
2) Somewhere in the middle, saw off 2 legs.
3) See if it causes all tables legs to fail in a symetrical collapse.

Now, Same thing but put dynamite on all the legs and and time the ones below to go off before the table above falls.

See which one looks more like 9/11

VERY GOOD, MISTER ROGERS! DID YOU actually perform this highly scientific "experiment" in your own home? Here's another one for you; Pile up, oh, I dont know, say 55 million tons of concrete, steel glass, wood, plastic,etc. into a pile about 2000 ft. high, and then fly a fully fueled 747 jumbo jet into it at FULL THROTTLE and see what happens... The twin towers were NOT a stack of dining room tables.

If America is so bad & fckd-up and evil, why don't you just leave? You know why you don't, cause you've got it so da_mn good that's why.

mdc76082...
There are THOSE of us out here who can remember what our country USED to be like, and who see what it has NOW BECOME; Not just because of 9-11, but ALSO because our freedoms, which you mention, have been SERIOUSLY impugned, NOT ONLY BY the TERRORISTS, but ALSO by our OWN "PRESIDENT"and "VICE PRESIDENT" and THE PARTY which they are members of. And it is THIS which arouses our vehement ANGER at the way things NOW are in this GREAT COUNTRY!
This was once a super power whom the ENTIRE WORLD both FEARED as well as RESPECTED. However, we now have little of either since we are led by an administration who attacks the WRONG country for FALSE PRETENSES and with ULTERIOR MOTIVES.
We ARE SICK OF BUSH,CHENEY,ROVE, RICE, RUMSFELD, AND PEOPLE like YOU, who defend these TRAITORS to the U.S. CONSTITUTION, NO MATTER WHAT CRIMES THEY COMMIT!

FORTHEPEAPLE - Do you work? Do you get a paycheck? Does your government pay you? Do you drive without going through checkpoints daily? Are the police busting in your house everyday? Are you checked to make sure your papers are in order, everywhere you go? Are you sleeping soundly at night? Do you get good food too eat daily? If you have children, do they go to school daily? Are you dodging militant bombs everyday? Do you get a chance to relax every week? Are you able to post pretty much freely on this site and others? Sounds to me like you've got it pretty da_man good and lot to be thankful for. Looks like you and mh4cbs1 are just pitching a bi_tch to stir s_hit up. You're so d_amn blind that you don't even realize what you have in front of you. You don't even realize what you've got. You've never had it hard in your life. You've never walked in anyone's shoe's. You just ride the fcking coattails and join the bandwagons like everyone else, cause it's the thing to do. You are such a follower. I only have one simple question for anyone who thinks life here is so terrible - If America is so bad & fckd-up and evil, why don't you just leave? You know why you don't, cause you've got it so da_mn good that's why.

Do any of you science-less bozos have any idea of how strong just one side of the World Trade Center towers were? As wind pushed on it, it would flex, so that one side opposite the wind would be supporting 95% of the weight while resisting the horizontal force of the wind itself. Then when it flexed back, the other side would have to hold around 75% of the total weight. Other wise, it would have collapsed before they could even finish building it.

So, it was far to ridged for a pancake theory. It could only fall over, if it was going to fall.
